Case Report

S.C., female, age 45, had been experiencing food intolerance, including gluten sensitivity. She tried various diets without much success. She began in 1989 to take N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE at 3 g per day. She continued for three months and noticed considerable reduction in food intolerance. Thereafter, she tried other diets without N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE for a year. At that time, she concluded that the N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE treatment was superior to the other dietary measures and resumed N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE treatment late in 1990. S.C. reported that daily N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE treatment enabled her to eat a wider variety of foods without experiencing difficulties as before, and that it has greatly improved her condition.
