About Me

Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    For the vast majority of celiacs it's probably safe, however, it seems that for those who are super sensitive it's best to avoid such products. It's fairly easy now to find brands that are naturally gluten-free, which is what Celiac.com recommends. You might finds this article interesting:

    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.):

    Have you tried calling the Celiac Disease Foundation about this? Their number is 844-593-8169.

    Only the manufacturer would know if it's gluten-free, so if it says free of gluten, then it is likely safe. This company makes a gluten-free line of cosmetics, and has been a sponsor here before: https://www.epilynx.com/

    There are plenty of gluten-free carbs you can eat, so that should not be an issue. Corn, potatoes, and everything on this list is safe:

    Welcome the forum. In order to screen for celiac disease you would need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it (usually they recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily) for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first...

    If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful:

    Given that you had a positive blood test for celiac disease, if you also have villous atrophy the likely culprit would definitely be celiac disease, and not SIBO. Villous atrophy is a hallmark of celiac disease, but it can also be caused by SIBO and other conditions. Proper diagnosis often requires a multidisciplinary approach involving gastroenterologists...

    Feel free to share your test results here, along with the reference ranges for the tests, and I think you need to delay this test and do a proper gluten challenge. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per...

    I agree, but am not willing to stop travelling do to celiac disease--or eating at restaurants. I realize some people do make choices not to do those things, but for me those things are just too important. We have a section on gluten-free travel: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/

    High levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the blood can have various causes, including liver or bone issues, and are not directly related to celiac disease or Thiamine (vitamin B1) supplementation. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement regimen, especially if you have existing medical conditions...

    You would need to contact the NCA about this.

    In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive...

    Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
