Diagnosed with HLA-B27 uveitis in 1991. 2 years ago I stopped all gluten and the eye inflammation is gone. I was on a myriad of treatments to control the inflammation. The side effects were no fun, to say the least. Since I was told that HLA-B27 never burns itself out, I can only attribute my change to my gluten free diet. It is not as hard as it seems.

In reply to Courtney. Look into Dr. Robert Morse's protocol. He has had a lot of success with MS. If that seems too challenging for you then the Wahl's Diet.

In reply to Courtney. Hi Courtney, I'd start with low FODMAP.

Hi Joe!
I’m a 34 yr old woman with Graves’ disease. I was diagnosed last summer, i don’t have any kids but me and my husband were thinking on having kids my doctor recommended RAI to me because she mentioned getting pregnant under thyroid medication would take a long time and that if i continued with the pills I could even lose my “pregnancy window”. Ever since the RAI I gain close to 20 pounds. My levels are now “normal” and my doctor claims that i should be able to lose weight now. My energy levels are down, I’ve lost much hair, my joints hurt and lost my libido. I started having a protein shake in the mornings and clean don’t drink any sodas or processed food. Managed to go to gym 2-3 times a week (a win since I’m always fighting fatigue) and do weight lifting. I haven’t lost a pound (I’ve done this for 5 weeks now).
I went to se a nutritionist (cost me $90) and she told me I was doing thinks ok. I started crying in her office when she aid I had to adjust to a new normal and that’s maybe I wasn’t going to lose the weight at all.

Hi Joe,
How do I know which diet to try first? Low FODMAP, AIP or GAPS?
I have multiple sclerosis, I’ve been gluten & dairy free since January 2014, I also went low carb for around 1.5 years and did well on that, lost 10kg/20lb.
Things were going great, I gradually increased carb intake but still gluten & dairy free, it was fine for about a year then during last year I noticed I started to get a lot of bloating which has now become chronic. I get a lot of distention every night at bedtime, it flattens in the morning but no matter what I eat I bloat up through out the day till I look 5 months pregnant after dinner.
I can’t figure out what the problem is so I’m going to get some pro-biotics and digestive enzyme tablets and try one of these diets, I’m just unsure which is best to start with, which would you recommend to start with? Thanks 🙂
