Celiac Disease & Gluten-Free Diet Blogs
From Spoil-Sport to Super Woman! Tale of a Mother's Reversal!
In the beginning of my celiac journey; I expected that my biological children may also have celiac disease. I urged for the whole family to use caution and do a trial gluten free. Because of my super-sensitivity to gluten, we created two kitchens. Now, a decade has gone by. My 5 children grew up and flew the coop. Not one of them has opted to be tested or go gluten free, so far as I know, although each is gluten aware more so than I would have been. I have one child still at home. This

After just recieving a formal diagnosis for Celiac ... after MANY attempts to resolve digestive issues, it's a bit overwhelming to figure out how to get every bit of gluten out of my kitchen. Products (flour and the like) or gone but I am looking around and realizing how many porous surfaces I own and now , need to replace. I would love to get input on how member initally cleaned counters, drawers, sinks etc. Are there products, or methods, that worked for you? Also, is there a belief that w
Deamidated Gliadin IGG elevated
I had a positive biopsy 6 months ago and I have been gluten free since then. My doctor just checked my deamidated Gliadin IGA and IGG for the first time to see how my body is responding to the diet (still having GI issues). My IGA was 1.0 (normal <15) but my IGG was 18.1 (normal <15). With one value on the low end and one elevated does this mean I am still getting gluten? Unfortunately he didn’t do these tests when diagnosed by biopsy so I don’t know what my values were at that timeFood Recall Warning (Allergen) - Charcuterie Fortin brand Salami recalled due to undeclared wheat
Charcuterie L. Fortin Ltée. is recalling Charcuterie Fortin brand Salami from the marketplace because it may contain wheat which is not declared on the label.

Company information Charcuterie L. Fortin Ltée.: 1-800-463-6551 Product Info: Brand: Charcuterie Fortin Salami 175 g (UPC 6 2Ferritin level of 5
I was diagnosed with celiac 2 months ago, so this is all new to me. My GI doctor put me on a steroid (Budesonide) to help “jump start” the healing process. In the meantime my GYN drew lab and my ferritin level is 5! The GYN said to start an iron supplement, but when I told the GI doctor about my ferritin level he just dismissed it and said to just give the steroid time. So I don’t know if I should start the iron regardless of what the GI doctor said? I feel extremely fatigued, losing hair etc.Farm Boy brand Gluten Free Fresh Spinach & Ricotta Ravioli recalled due to undeclared gluten

Seeking Advice as a New Mom with Celiac-Hyperthyroidism
Hi! Though I am new as a member of this forum, I just want to say how much it has helped me, with all the articles and forums, to be able to manage my conditions. It has been an absolute lifesaver! So, a month ago, I was blessed with the unexpected surprise of a baby. (The clinic I had gone to had claimed I wasn't pregnant, and a lot of the pregnancy symptoms really mimicked many of the effects I have when my body is triggered by something I should not have eat, plus my body at the time had
Celiac in seniors
I am new to this and just learning. My dad has been diagnosed w celiac disease at 76. He was completely healthy, on zero medications, eating healthy meals cooked by my mom, and taking vitamins for years! When he was first diagnosed (after weight loss and weakness completely disabled him), ever Dr he saw said No, you can’t have celiac. You’re too old. But slowly we have learned that celiac in older people is more and more common. This is an auto immune disorder, yes? Are there any studies rega

Whatever you do, DO NOT fail to mention that you are a Celiac if you have to go into your local hospital, even if it is not an admission for celiac disease:- It is dangerous not to mention to your nurse, or any nurse treating you, that you are a brittle celiac. I have had so many "accidental issues" - outbreaks of dermatitis herpetiformis and celiac disease issues. From the nurse that told me she would make me a "Nice cup of tea with some cheese crackers" when I could not get back to sleepHead ache after eating
Hi! My 19 year old daughter was diagnosed with Celiac Disease this past May. She is completely gluten free and was feeling good until a cross contamination in November. For the past three weeks she has been having headaches and they get worse after she eats. She is so on top of her eating and we know it’s not caused by gluten. Doctor said to take magnesium and vitamin B12 supplements but nothing is helping. Has anyone had this issue or have suggestions? It breaks my heart she feels so yucky

Day 2, the day after incubation, I found 1 inactive larvae after sampling both jars. By sampling I mean inspecting about 15 mls of water extracted from each jar.
Day 3, nothing.
Day 4, I saw one larva in each jar.
Day 5, I estimate there were 15–20 larvae in each jar. Enough to inoculate.
So I guess that's the answer. 5 days. Waiting longer would mean less work as there would be less time scanning the petri dish.
I live near Detroit and this is April. Average temperature in my home has ranged btw 19 and 23C.

Oh my gosh I am reading my exact story… I just responded to a bunch of problems posts saying the same things…
I do pretty much atkins too (under 20g carbs) which has been lifesaving in addition to thiamine. Symptoms are gradually improving, POTS isn’t as bad, and haven’t had the vertigo or nausea I had every time I ate. I think blood sugar may have been my bigger issue but I was stuck navel gazing with the celiac’s diagnosis (so many unproductive GI visits and unhelpful tests and years of frustration ).
I was doing keto for a bit but wasn’t eating enough meat and my carnitine levels fell very low so have to make sure I eat around 30% cal from protein.
No pre diabetes or diabetes but I like to monitor my glucose at home and see how my symptoms correspond. Definitely think minimizing inflammation by keeping sugars low is my way of keeping my autoimmunity in check. More empowering as the patient too.keep spreading the word!! Wish I had found out ages ago

Exploring Other Causes of Villous Atrophy Beyond Celiac Disease
Thanks Knitty Your knowledge of the b vitamin is unreal. I don't recall ever having heard of the riboflavin influence on candida and look forward to a little more help in controlling the beast. Carbs are a problem for me particularly bread, rice and pasta. Worse was my addiction to refined sugar, however, pleased to report that I gave it up for the most...- 1

Exploring Other Causes of Villous Atrophy Beyond Celiac Disease
@normagain, There's a difference between Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Candidiasis (Yeast Infection). It's possible to have one or the other or both. Celiac Disease causes damage to the small intestine. The SIBO occurs because the bacteria take advantage of this damage to move in and multiply. Same with Candida. SIBO is...
