increase your calorie intake. You can add honey to veggies for extra calories and such.

It may take a while for your intestines to heal enough to absorb more nutrients. Be sure to keep exercising and doing weight-bearing exercises too; it'll help build muscle instead of just adding fat. Good luck!

Weight-lifting gets your weight up quick. Just be sure to eat plenty after every work-out.

exercise and proper diet will help you build a healthy body.

If you just want to add weight, sugar will do that. ;)

Follow me around and eat everything I do. That seems to put a lot of weight on me. (Just a joke. I have the opposite problem)

Ha! I've thought of offering the same thing.

gluten-free has helped. And now I feel well enough to exercise which will doubly help.

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
