I had never heard of leaky gut before our never-vaccinate youngest son was exposed to deadly Stachybotris mold and Klebsiella (a gram negative bacteria)* at the age of almost 5. We didn’t understand what was killing our son and had to find a way to help him.
He rapidly lost weight from being unable to absorb foods properly and wailed with stomach pain. He developed a severe case of eczema from his groin to his ankles, and his jammies stuck to his legs in the morning from the seeping at night.
And worst of all, he started having behavioral problems from what the new food allergies did to him on a molecular/cellular gut/brain level.
*A mother’s nightmare: He (JP), his twin sister, and 7 year-old brother had the run of the property but were expressly forbidden to go into the neighbor’s old barn. The kids had willingly obeyed me up until that day when they were out with their dad, and while he was working on a tractor that needed a tune-up, (and maybe because they felt safer because of his nearness), they decided that day was the day to see if they could get away with going into the scary old barn! They played for several hours (unmissed by their busy dad) in the hayloft of that leaky, unstable building. There were challenging stacks of discarded, molding, green and black-covered straw bales to climb on. Apparently an abandoned raccoon or coyote lair, there was old, dried-up feces that lay around in one place making perfect flying objects to throw out the window on a windy day for active little children. The klebsiella contamination was most likely from the animal feces and fingers going into the mouth! Ohhh!!!
We needed intervention fast and visited a well-known complimentary functional medical doctor I trusted. As an RN, I had already ordered stool tests and asked her to run more. The results showed NO ‘good’ bacterial flora such as lactobacillus acidophilus…none. There was also blood in the stool meaning the stomach or small intestine, or both, was damaged and bleeding.
Spiral Downwards.
Our 4 year-old son in particular had a terrible overgrowth of Klebsiella, a powerful gram-negative bacteria, and serious overgrowth of candida albicans in the gut, thrush on his tongue and a very itchy bottom, ears, and skin as it was out of control. Our functional medical doctor explained that his immune system had taken a terrible hit from all the mold and the bacteria. It was able to grow unchecked, damaging the whole lining from the stomach through the small intestines. It was wreaking havoc on his ability to absorb foods and grow.
That was the first time I heard the words ‘leaky gut’.
What We Did:
Our doctor put him on several months (on and off) of Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) Citricidal and Pau D’Arco (do not take these without researching yourself).
Also he had him alternate 2 probiotics (each for a week on and off): Bio-Kult and Primal Defense. We started with 1 a day, then in 2 days increased to 1 in the AM and 1 in the PM on an empty stomach. These probiotics cover a lot of territory with good strains of healthy gut bacteria to control the candida and help kill off the Klebsiella since we decided we’d first try a non-pharmaceutical antibiotic route.
He was on these for 4 -6 months (I can’t remember) and then switched to another (like this one) to get a wider bunch of strains different from the last 2. After 4 more months we switched back to the Bio-Kult and Primal Defense.
But there’s more…way more – and it proved to be pivotal in his gut healing! When that was restored, we were on the road to having our boy back again!
What is a Leaky Gut?
The gut (mostly small intestine) is naturally permeable to very small molecules in order to absorb vital nutrients. And actually, regulating intestinal permeability is one of the basic functions of the cells that line the intestinal wall. Infections, toxins, molds, stress and age can cause tight junctions in the intestinal lining to break apart.
Once these tight junctions get broken apart by an overgrowth of a bad, out-of-control bacteria or toxin, you have a ‘leaky’ gut. When your gut is leaky, things like toxins, microbes, undigested food particles, and more can escape from your intestines and travel into your bloodstream. Your immune system marks these “foreign invaders” as pathogens and attacks them. It is an autoimmune response to protect the body.
The healthy food I fed our son began to be his enemy.
With diagnosed allergies to 64 foods, the doctor said we should stop testing. There wasn’t much more we could test for. He’d have to eat everything on a 4-day rotation in order to eat anything at all. We ended going to an 8-day rotation when he failed to thrive…and that lasted for three years! I earnestly prayed and researched day and night to find things that would help him.
For 6 years he did not grow significantly. No growth spurts.
Functional Food Medicine: Anti-Inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic
It took us several years to realize one of the most helpful things we could use was virgin coconut oil. It was not expensive compared to the other things we did. It is a superfood no one should be without.
Coconut oil soothes and helps heal stomach and intestinal lining including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The saturated fats (lauric, capric and caprylic acids) present in coconut oil:
- are strongly anti-inflammatory
- have strong anti-microbial properties
- help deal with various bacteria, fungi (including Candida), and parasites
- help with absorption of nutrients in the gut
- have no side-effects
If used for medicinal purposes, Coconut oil should be organic, extra virgin and cold pressed.
Dosage of Coconut Oil
For severe cases like our sons, we somehow got 2-3 teaspoons (1 TBSP) coconut oil into him every day (at first off the spoon or melted in warm/hot water like coffee creamer). Later in food, and in a special smoothie just for him (like this one). It was not a battle, especially once he started to feel so much better. We knew when he tested for no blood in his stool that we were on the right track!
Another key to his eventual turnaround.
We also used cod liver oil (EVERY DAY), mega-Omega-3 fish oil, and real organic butter to help heal the gut. We rotated them like his food. Cod liver oil and a good quality fish oil are anti-inflammatory, helping to “cool” the “heat” of inflammatory leaky gut situations like his.
Coconut Oil Not Only for Leaky Gut: Also For Diabetics and Pre-Diabetics
Health Impact News Daily (cutting edge medical news you will not hear in the mainstream press) article states:
- Virgin Coconut oil has a measurable effect on blood sugar levels.
- Information is finally making its way into the mainstream media that type 2 diabetes is a lifestyle and diet issue and can be reversed without drugs.
- Coconut oil’s ability to control hunger and cravings is well-documented.
How Do You Get It Into Your Diet?
We use it for frying all our eggs, omelets, French toast, and pancakes.
It is the base of our own amazing chocolate mixture sweetened with our own raw honey (and a bit of sea salt) to satisfy our sweet tooth healthfully.
We use it to sauté zucchini and peppers and to caramelize onions and ‘pan-fry’ potatoes and steaks.
We add Coconut Manna (Puréed Coconut Butter) to green smoothies.
After coconut oil helped restore our son’s G.I. tract and his immune system, we all started taking/eating it. It is wonderful for 60-year-old facial skin, too.
Other Causes of Chronic Damage to the Gut
Mood, sleep, language, and appetite are regulated by serotonin, 90% of which is made in the gut. When the gut is attacked, we see behavioral problems reminiscent of autism.
Often the gut is chronically damaged by:
- heavy metals from highly toxic vaccine adjuvants
- mold like my son’s experience
- toxic glyphosate in common foods which alters the gut microbiome and increases intestinal permeability
- Leading baby foods contain alarmingly high levels of damaging heavy metals
- antibiotics annihilate good microbes and create antisocial children
- and many more
We can remove these offenders and more from the organs, the gut, and the brain with TRS.
There are many partially successful detox methods. There is only one detox method that fully binds 80,000 metals and toxins (and does not release them back to the body)— and that is TRS.
TRS is even safe enough to use in pregnancy and while breastfeeding. (See this definitive PubMed study stating safety in humans, animals, and their developing offspring).
Here is my personal link to order TRS.
Purchase products as a ‘preferred customer’ at the lowest prices which is ‘autoship pricing’. You can cancel or alter the dates at any time. There is no penalty for canceling or any hidden fees for signing up for autoship.
Thankful to be past the Leaky Gut!
We have our son back again, so I must take a moment to point to a faithful God. He answered my prayers for wisdom and understanding. I learned so much through that experience that I can now help others. He was always there even when I experienced defeat and doubt!
Today, our son is in his twenties and runs our organic farm. Once his leaky gut healed, he filled out again and grew another robust 2+ (I’ve lost track) feet to be taller than his dad and me! Thankfully the severe leaky gut pain, eczema and behavioral issues only lasted the first several years. We look back on that time as a blessing of learning and testing. We came out stronger for it.
“And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.” ~Psalm 9: 10
We are told that coconut oil is BAD for us! I don’t believe it for one moment!
Virgin Coconut oil is a true treasure of God’s handiwork. We can see results in the health of out family when we use unrefined and unprocessed foods as God intended from reputable sources. You can find good quality virgin coconut oil like this one.
Also, Virgin Coconut Oil is super helpful for Alzheimer’s!

What a wonderful Creator we serve! I just read “Food-Your Miracle Medicine” and stood (or sat) in awe of just how amazingly God created the foods we eat.
Oh, and we love coconut oil around here too. 🙂
Hannah
Very interesting post, as I have been studying more about coconut oil and Candida recently. Praise the Lord for his healing in answer to your prayers.
I’m curious, where did you get the egg container I see in the background of one of your photos? Is it glass? Or did it just come with your refrigerator?
Joybilee Farm
Great post, once again. We use Tropical Traditions coconut oil, too. Love their coconut products and their testimony.
cheers,
Chris
Racheal
Coconut oil is awesome stuff. I love it! It also helps regulate the thyroid. And for me, it helped straighten my extremely crooked teeth, believe it or not!
You mentioned coconut oil for alzheimers…one of the men in our church has alzheimers and his wife has been using coconut oil now for several years. It has helped him hold his ground. It is totally amazing how well he is doing!
Jacqueline
There are so many good reports coming from reputable older people who are finally taking charge of their own care. It is encouraging! Thanks for sharing that!
Cris Dorval
I am only now getting around to reading this amazing article. I can see trends in my own life as well as one of my sons where this may have led to many health problems. I need God’s wisdom how to proceed. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Lisa
A timely post that I’m passing on to a friend. Thanks for sharing what you’ve learned and what’s worked for your family. We also use coconut oil and have found it to be healing as well, but it was raw milk that really made the difference for our son who struggled with eczema and allergies. God is so good to provide healing foods for us! Blessings, ~Lisa
Jacqueline
Lisa,
Oh, raw milk is a whole other post! We also drink raw and love the wonderful things it does for our gut. We thought we couldn’t drink milk, but for some people raw is tolerated well, and goat milk (raw, of course) is even easier on those who have allergies, usually! Thanks for your kind words 🙂
Nicole
Wow, this is amazing! I use unsweetend coconut flakes in a smoothie I make for breakfast and it is delicious. Now, I’m assuming the coconut oil is “sweet.” So can I replace the pam oil sprays with it when making eggs? Do you use it to grease the pan essentially? Thanks for sharing (and thanks for linking up- it’s a blessing!).
Jacqueline
Hi, Nicole,
Yes, we use coconut oil for lots of things. We don’t feel like it has a heavy coconut taste. In eggs, we don’t even taste it. And I am going to post on making dandelions with onions and chicken sausage tonight as a spring tonic. I used coconut oil for that, too. It really is like using olive oil to ‘grease the pan’! I’m rooting for your new link-up!
Nicole
You’re too sweet! 🙂 And my husband and I searched and spotted the coconut oil so we will have to try it soon! Thank you again!
Kristin
I have heard that too much coconut oil can cause effects of that of a natural laxative. Is this true?
Jacqueline
It is probably true to some extent, but it would take a lot to get one there and the other health benefits would outweigh it. Besides, most people need a good colon cleanse from time to time 🙂
Good question, Kristin!
Blessings!
Mrs. Z
I love coconut oil here too!! I actually put about a tablespoon in my coffee each morning. 🙂 To me it really has not taste, but is awfully effective for a lot of things.
Pattu
Hi,
Loved this post on Coconut oil. It is true that it heals a lot of ailments. In India, down south we use it in cooking all the time., for centuries.
Jacqueline
Pattu, yesterday my daughter and I went into a wonderful little Indian restaurant and had lentil soup with spices and Naan bread with ground lamb and cilantro. The spices are heavenly and, I think it is just real spices…They used coconut oil in several of their dishes. So glad we found this place 🙂
Kimmi
Was he on the probiotics at the same time as the GSE and Pau D’arco? Did he drink pauD’arco as tea or was it a pill?
Did u eliminate any foods at this time?
Jacqueline
Hi, Kimmi,
I do remember the Pau D’arco was a tea (see the link in there to the tea we used), and we took that and the GSE in the morning and middle afternoon if I remember. We did he probiotics between them seperating them by time on both sides. We did this pretty consistently for a few years and so already the 4 day (and latr) the 8 day rotations were in progress.
I hope that helps! My email is [email protected]
Sending peace,
Jacque
Jeannie
Hi, I was searching for the benefits of raspberry leaf tea, and found your site, with lots of other inspired advice. I was wondering if it makes a difference in cooking whether you use de-odorised coconut oil or the regular variety? I use the de-ordorised (it’s cheaper and still organic) for massage and as a a moisturizer. I haven’t used this for cooking yet. I have just started to use ghee instead of olive oil for cooking (homemade from store bought butter). Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. It is a Blessing.
Jacqueline
Dear Jeannie,
Thank you for your kind words. I hate to admit that I’m not sure what deodorized is…but it is my guess that it may not be cold-pressed (and processed), so it doesn’t become rancid. If you can afford it, always use cold-pressed. But, like I said, I’m not familiar with it.
I like that you are making ghee. I have not one it and think I may just have to so I know all about it. There is so much I still must learn…it is fun to be a life-long learner, isn’t it? there is no end to what we can discover 🙂
Thank you for your comment. It is always wonderful to find new like-minded ladies. May the Lord bless you in all you do.
Jacqueline
Michael
In your response to “Jeannie says: July 15, 2012 at 9:28 pm” there seemed to be a question about what ‘deodorized’ coconut oil was in your reponse. It is refined coconut oil. They use chemicals in the refining process which removes the coconut taste and some of the nutrients. Refined coconut oil has a smoke point of 450 degrees and unrefined or ‘virgin’ coconut oil smoke point is 350 degrees. Unrefined or ‘virgin’ coconut oil has the coconut taste and intact nutrients. There is no real difference between ‘virgin’ and ‘extra-virgin’ coconut oil. Use refined if you do not want the coconut taste or cooking at temps over 350 degrees. Most of this information was gathered from other sites. I didn’t understand what the differences were until doing research on the web. Hope this helps.
Jacqueline
Thank you so much, Michael, for taking the time to share that! I knew there were differences, but not exactly why. So for medicinal use, apparently the virgin is best…
Abby
Thank you Jacqueline for this information re: coconut oil. My husband has suffered years from chronic stomach pain, without a lot of answers as to why. Diet does seem to be a factor, but it’s not the only one. I will work at your suggestions to incorporate coconut oil into his diet and see if it helps him. Thanks for sharing this information you learned all those years ago when your son was so ill.God doesn’t waste anything, HE has given you many gifts and you are certainly sharing them in a mighty way here on your website. I’m sorry your son had to suffer for so long, it must have broken your heart. So thankful he’s much better now. ~ Abby
Jacqueline
Hi, dear Abby! Yes it did break my heart and I cried myself to sleep many nights in fear and worry. But God was faithful and lead us well! I’m so thankful if anything I share here can help you, your husband or others! I’m praying now for him and for wisdom for you both! (((Hugs!)))
Laura Jeanne
How amazing that coconut oil has no many benefits. I knew it was healthy, but I was not aware that it had the ability to heal a leaky gut. I think I am going to try to incorporate it more into our diet – even though, my kids do not like the taste of coconut – I might have to get creative.
I wonder, is it still good to use the refined coconut oil, for example for cooking or making popcorn, in place of other oils? I just know that my family would not eat a meal cooked in virgin coconut oil.
Jacqueline
Yes, Laura! The refined is much better for you than other cooking oils and does not taste the least bit coconut-ty. For us, we don’t even notice a coconut flavor or smell with the virgin coconut oil. You might do a taste test with out them knowing. Do you have a friend who can give you a 1/2 cup?
Amber cinereski
Yes coconut is a great healer!
Liz
Hi! I agree with most of what you said, but I’m curious as to why you avoided prescription antibiotics and antifungals with your son.
I had suffered from 10+ years of intestinal issues. 6 years ago, I was diagnosed with Celiac disease. After 6 months of a gluten-free diet, I still had multiple digestive issues. After many doctors (over the course of 5 years) told me that I just have inflammation and there’s not much that can be done, I saw an Internist who specialized in functional medicine (homeopathic and regular medicine). After a few visits with her, she diagnosed me with “small intestine bacterial overgrowth”, leaky gut and candida.
She prescribed 2 strong antibiotics and a strong antifugal. 3 months later, I’m healed!! I’m absorbing nutrients that my body had been deprived of for years.
I understand the resistance to antibiotics, but sometimes they are necessary and can work wonders.
Jacqueline
Liz, I agree and am not bashing antibiotics totally. They have their place. I personally am allergic to ALL antibiotics b/c of overuse in my childhood. I felt at the time that it was best to avoid them and our son never had one, even to this day. Not a pride issue, but a concern he would have more allergic rxns. I am glad you asked 🙂
Karen
How much coconut oil should one consume? I’m only adding one TBS to our smoothies (for 3 people). I am sure that is not nearly enough. My 5 year old has eczema and even though he’s on the elimination diet and eating more whole foods that ever, he is getting worse. I suspect he has a leaky gut. PLEASE HELP!
Jacqueline
Karen, If you can help him learn to take it off the spoon, it would expedite so much, but it is hard to consume such a rich food straight. My easiest way to consume a LOT of virgin coconut oil is by spreading it on hot sprouted grain toast with a bt of sea salt. TO Me, it tastes like melted salted butter! For smoothies, I would go to coconut cream concentrate which is 70% coconut oil and 30% solids (very filling and high in fiber -slightly sweet. Very much full fat coconut oil in a cold smoothie would be make the coconut oil solid and thus, chunky even thought blended.
Another way to get a higher amount of virgin coconut oil into the diet is by stirring 4-5 TBSP into hot oatmeal in the morning.
An therapeutic serving per adult would be 3-5 slightly-rounded TBSP per day. For a child it depends on weight…we used 2 slightly rounded TBSP (or more) per day when our son was small and not growing. Make bone broth and melt it in when serving in a bowl…you could hide it that way, too~
I’ll be praying for your 5 year old. Do as many of the other supplements alongside coconut oil as you can afford for 3-4 months. You should see some changes in that time. God bless you!
Karen
Thank you for your reply & tips. Apparently my son is allergic to coconut oil. 🙁 His reaction was pretty bad, so that’s out of the question. I bought him a probiotic that is free of all the top allergens, but he had a slight reaction to that as well. *sigh* My question is: Is it worth the slight reaction if in the end it helps? The daily dosage is 2 tablets. Should I try just one tablet and then maybe he could move up to two, eventually? I know I can switch the probiotic brand as well, but I didn’t see another brand that was free of so many allergens, so that discourages me.
Jacqueline
Karen, does your son react repeatedly or was it one “suspected’ reaction? If it hasn’t happened before, I would urge you to give him a skin test with CO in a very small area. Have you tried fermented cod liver oil? This one doesn’t have added flavor: http://amzn.to/1RC1fAC
I’m so sad that he’s reacting to CO and the high quality probiotic. Have you looked at BioKult ingredients? http://amzn.to/1JCqPnN You can see the ingredients in a box on the side of the product. It’s GF, but may contain milk or soy…
I’m praying for you and your son. I will ask that you have wisdom and he has patience with himself and his body. The Lord is on the throne. One thing I found out is that the Lord loves our children wayyyy more than we ever could and is working even in this situation!
Karen
Hi Jacqueline,
He did react repeatedly when I put CO on his skin. My husband noticed it first and eventually we both came to the same conclusion – that he’s all of a sudden allergic. I hoped he wouldn’t have a reaction if he consumed it (for some lame reason), but suspected it might be making him itchy. When I read your article I immediately gave him two tbs and he broke out into hives. 🙁 It seems pretty conclusive to me.
I gave the probiotic another try and he seems fine, but unfortunately he continues to get worse – it’s spreading and his skin is dryer and redder than ever. Nighttime is the worst, he’s waking up 3-5 x’s and at times is awake for an hour before settling down again.
I have not tried fermented cod liver oil or looked at BioKult ingredients. Thank you so much for the suggestions and for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with me. I appreciate your quick reply and prayers more than you’ll every know and more than I could adequately express! God bless you a million fold!
beverly
I just heard Dr Dan Pompa on the Vaccine Revealed 2020 that just played for free… he got very toxic when he had a silver filling removed to put gold on as an adult and that started his journey with his health going down hill when years later he could not sleep and started researching his symptoms and came to Mad Hatter Disease caused by mercury poisons and finally realized that it started when that filling was removed. He learned to heal himself. He said grass fed butter is really good for you, and grass fed meat. The butter has ARACHIDONIC acid that is super good for you and he also said, if you take too much FISH OIL you can become ‘omega 3 dominant’ so you need to use the grass fed butter while taking fish oil or the ‘fish oil will become dangerous’! He was very adamant about it. I was taking fish oil, so I heard his warning. His practice is one of detoxing and getting lives back as he did for himself.
Jacqueline
Yes, Beverly, detoxing is super important! We use TRS and fabulous things are happening!
TRS does not heal or cure anything, but it clears the body of toxins/metals and such so the body can heal and rebalance itself as God designed it to do!

Good Morning, Once again you have helped me to see the benefits of this amazing product! I am putting it back on the counter top! I know the wonders of it, yet I have stoped using it as often as I need it! My body actually craves it! I appreciate all the hard work you have done for us to give us a better quality of life!
Blessings, Roxy
Jacqueline
Thanks, dear Roxy! I’m so glad it jogged your memory! I made pear butter on the stovetop tonight and used about 6 TBSP coconut oil. I thickened it with Great Lakes gelatin (orange can), added some honey and it was awesome. No one knew there was coconut oil in it 😀
So glad you stopped by and for the encouragement!
Abby
Thank you Jacqueline. My husband was recently diagnosed with SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth) after years and years of stomach pain, bloating and belching. He is on a severe diet which eliminates a large variety of things he was eating. His quality of life has improved, but it’s still in process. Coconut oil is on of the go to things I cook with for him. In fact, your coconut snowballs are our #1 dessert. I think I need to add more to his diet by putting it in tea or something similar. I also have a few people to share your article re: coconut oil for alzheimers and dementia. Thank you again for your wisdom.
Jacqueline
I am so blessed when I can be of help, Abby. Thank you so much for your encouragement, sweet friend. I am praying your husband improves significantly quickly. Sounds like he’s already much better, praise God! 😀 God’s gifts are always BEST! (((Hugs!)))
Heather
Thank you for this post. Such an encouragement to do what I know is good and right!!! I was wondering about the food rotation you had mentioned. We are gluten free, dairy free, egg free and we are adding more limitations. We are putting one of our daughters on a low oxalate diet (this has been recommended by our Dr to help our daughter as her digestion is a mess, and in helping her digestion we will help her behavior, as she has some SPD issues) and this is a struggle for me. I am struggling in the planning of our meals. If it were just this one issue I don’t think I would be struggling so much. We are being tested on many fronts right now. We have just had our sixth child and what a sweet blessings he is to us a precious gift!!!! No complaints about him but mama is tired and my brain is just a bit slower processing. No one I know has had to do this type of food shift. So that is why I am asking you for wisdom and insight on the food rotation. Thank you for your blog!! Thank you for your time in reading this note!!!
May God bless you!
Jacqueline
Heather, I will look for my 8 day rotation and if I can find it, I will take a pic for you and email you! I hope that helps!
Also I am praying for you! May the Lord give you abundant wisdom and peace. “He gently leads those who have young.” Isaiah
(((((((((Hugs!)))))))))
Heather
Dear Jacqueline,
Thank you so much for even looking!!!! What a blessing!!!
Thank you for your prayers they are more precious than anything else!!! That you would go before our Father on behalf of us is beautiful!!!!
Thank you again for your time and effort!!!! May God truly bless you!!
Heather
Jacqueline
Heather, I have not found it yet, but have 2 more places to look (for that 8 day rotation). We have had a houseful of guests and so I haven’t had the ability to be as thorough as I’d like to be. Hopefully, Monday!

I have leaky gut and 28+ food allergies/sensitivities. I have tried to start reintroducing foods and keep having severe dizziness/lightheaded/can’t focus my eyes during the episode/nausea/loss of balance/panic etc. since I started adding foods back in. I spent 9 months trying to eat only what I wasn’t “allergic” to based on testing. I tried to rotate every 3 days but with such limited foods I couldn’t get enough calories. Thankfully I was overweight because I had fat to draw from but I’ve almost lost 100 pounds due to fasting and also this restricted diet. I have used bone broth daily for 4 months too. I could only have a couple of meats and maybe 4-5 low carb veggies in addition to intermittent fasting. These symptoms are horrible and every dr I go to has no idea what’s wrong with me or how to help me. It is very discouraging! I do see a holistic MD and she has discovered the leaky gut etc. My GI map was negative for yeast but due to symptoms we did treat for 2 months with diflucan. I was negative for mold. I have been on silver twice a day as well and a spore probiotic. Do you have any insight as to what could be happening? Thank you so much for posting this! I don’t find many people to glean advice from in this area and greatly appreciated the article. Were your sons allergies IgE ones? Did he rotate foods he was allergic to or only eat foods he wasn’t allergic to? Did he ever get to start eating those allergy foods again? Could you help me understand the food rotation better?
Jacqueline
Brandy, I will email you now! ~Jacque

I always have history of low ferritin level. I am taking iron supplements 325mg for this issue. Last year my ferritin was 35 and it is still the same after a year. I was shocked, iron supplements has increased my hb to 15 but no effect on stubborn ferritin level. My vit d is good 56. My other blood parameters( hb, hct, mcv) cr, alt,ast all are within normal range. What is the underlying cause that i am missing to fix this issue.
Jacqueline
Rahim, I apologize for the delay in getting back with you! I am so behind, but I promise I will email you later after I return this afternoon! I think I know what may be blocking it!

The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. Although God’s creation was created perfect, having no death, sickness and disease, the creation became corrupted through Adam and Eve in them disobeying God. In this rebellion the creation became fallen through the curse of sin and mankind became separated from God. This world is fallen, but God offers reconciliation to him through his provision at the cross. Ultimately God will restore his creation to perfection when he returns but those that who reject his offer of redemption will remain condemned by their sins and go to hell.
John 1:1,14 KJV
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,
1 John 3:8 KJV
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Isaiah 9:6 KJV
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
John 1:10 KJV
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.

Myself and kids are allergic to CO and fish Cod Oil. I also have avacado allergies and egg and peanut allergies. All of these cause anaphylaxis in one or more of us. Any other ideas how to heal the body?

Hi, Kelly,
I apologize for the delay in answering. I do medical consulting with families after stumbling on a zeolite product that detoxes the root causes of many of these allergy issues you mentioned, and we’ve have amazing results.
If you would like to know more about TRS, wanting to know about how to PROTECT from the spike protein or you’ve requested the PROTOCOL, everything needed to answer most questions is in my Master email. Go through this link:https://deeprootsathome.com/trs/
I will email you with 10-12 stories from families that have overcome their food allergies and anaphylaxis.
Blessings,
Jacque

I’m just now reading this post as have been diagnosed with leaky gut. What an incredible story about your son! Thank God you were able to find solutions. Thank you for sharing them with us. 🙂
In addition to the oil and things, did you take foods out of his diet that came up as sensitivities? My functional med doc wants me cut out the top 3 in a large list, but it’s a HUGE change that I want to avoid if it won’t help. (I’ve been reading that it’s not helpful but wanted to confirm that with you.)

Nevermind. I reread. 🤦♀️
