so far, there are no enzymes that will help with celiac disease—–the only way to treat celiac is with a completely gluten free diet. there are, in the works, a couple of hopeful things to treat celiac disease eventually—and one of them may be an enzyme—-the other is a zonulin antagonist, but as of yet, neither of them is available. the zonulin antagonist is is the second phase of human trials—–i really hope this one works—-i’ll be the first in line to get it for my girls.

Christine,

have you heard of Zyme Prime and Peptizyde made by Houston Inc.?

My MIL, whom is celiac, said she has gotten great benefits from these two enzymes specifically. It is not a quick fix of course, but she said she can eat a meal when she goes out with freinds containing gluten as long as she take these with the meal. Dosing has to be right and she works with a holistic chripocator (sp?) who has helped her figure out the right dose for her. You can read more info on the website above. There is also a book by Karen DeFelice, where she shares her personal testimony as long with other people. I thought it was very informative and worth a try for me (or Kendra).

I never heard of the Zonulin Antagonist before. i’ll have to do some more research about that one.

thanks for the added info.

the problem with those enzymes is that they are not stopping the damage from the celiac. they may be helping her to not feel the symptoms, but the damage is still happening in the small intestines. there is no cure or treatment for celiac at this time except for a strictly gluten free diet.
