    Current Celiac Enzyme Supplements Fail to Fully Break Down Gluten
    Celiac.com 10/02/2015 - Many people with celiac disease or gluten-intolerance take digestive enzymes, hoping for some protection against accidental gluten-contamination.
    Post-proline cutting enzymes have been shown to effectively degrade the immunogenic gluten peptides and have been proposed as oral supplements. Several existing digestive enzyme supplements also claim to aid in gluten degradation.
    However, not all gluten proteins are the same. The gluten proteins that are particularly active in triggering an adverse immune reaction in celiac disease are known as immunogenic 33-mer from α-gliadin and a 26-mer from γ-gliadin.
    So, how effective are currently available digestive enzyme supplements ineffective in breaking down these specific gliadins that triggers immune reactions i...

    Celiac.com 05/02/2017 - Do women who use dietary supplements during pregnancy face higher rates of celiac disease in their offspring?
    To answer this question a team examined the maternal use of vitamin D, n-3 fatty acids (FA) and Fe supplements during pregnancy and looked for any corresponding risk for celiac disease autoimmunity, or celiac disease, in their children.
    The study, known as The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young, or "TEDDY," prospectively followed from birth children with increased genetic risk. The team defines celiac disease autoimmunity as the presence of persistently positive tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies (tTGA).
    The TEDDY research team includes Jimin Yang, Roy N. Tamura, Carin A. Aronsson, Ulla M. Uusitalo, Åke Lernmark, Marian Rewers, ...

    Life's Abundance Plant Protein Dietary Supplement: Vanilla & Chocolate Flavors
    Celiac.com 01/18/2019 - I recently had the opportunity to try a high-protein dietary supplement made by Life's Abundance. It's called Life's Abundance Plant Protein Dietary Supplement, and it comes in vanilla or chocolate flavors. The supplement makes it very easy to add extra protein and fiber to your diet. 
    There are several ways to use this plan protein supplement, and besides just mixing one scoop of it into 8 ounces of cold water to make a shake, it can also be added to smoothies, pancakes, baked goods and oatmeal. I tested it out by making shakes.
    As advertised, this supplement is packed with protein, at 14 grams per serving, and each serving also contains 3 grams of fiber. The main ingredients are pea protein, hemp protein, pumpkin protein, quinoa, chia seeds, coconut ...

    Gluten-Free Prescription Medications and Dietary Supplements
    Celiac.com 11/30/2021 - We all know symptoms of celiac disease are activated by the consumption of gluten, which can be found in wheat, barley, rye, and even oats that aren’t certified gluten-free. Most individuals who go on a gluten-free diet will think about food only, not necessarily medications. However, the truth of the matter is you need to be careful with both nutritional supplements, and over-the-counter and prescription medications, as they could contain gluten. 
    More often than not, excipients, which are binding agents or inactive ingredients in pills, tend to contain wheat, potato, corn, or rice. Additionally, even if a brand name drug is gluten-free, this does not mean that its generic version is. Nutritional supplements tend to be easier because a lot of companies no...

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      Hi RMJ. I read your post. Sounds like you need a second opinion? Have you been advised by Dietitian or referred to one? There are protocols for treating patients that have ongoing celiac disease antibodies / histology. Particularly as you have nausea and pain. You probably already know about the gluten contamination elimination diet. It may...

      Symptoms - Ulcers & Cough

      Welcome to the forum, @BlakeAlex! Is this the GI Reset product you are using?: https://inwellbio.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/GI-Reset_Info-Sheet.pdf There is a lot of weird stuff in that you could be reacting to. Personally, I would discontinue it as I doubt it's really doing you any good anyway. Getting to the point where you are truly...

      No. There is no damage done to the gut lining with NCGS.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      Hi Trents, Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I do have concerns about NCGS. Would this show up if I did the endoscopy testing?
