- Xravith replied to Xravith's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms11Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?
@knitty kitty Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount...- advice

- knitty kitty replied to klmgarland's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis4Help I’m cross contaminating myself,
I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too. Like @Rogol72, I had to cut out all gluten-free processed foods, dairy, oats, and eggs before my skin cleared up. I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. I also supplement with the eight essential B vitamins. (Meat and liver are great sources of B vitamins.) Low levels of certain B vitamins ( B1... -

I think Tierra Farms is a gluten free facility, at least that is what it says on the bag of walnuts that I have. -
- Clear2me posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications1Gluten free nuts
All of a sudden I can't get any gluten-free nuts. There are only 2 nuts available that I can find on the market that are gluten-free. One is Mauna loa brand macadamia nuts, the other is Wonderful pistachios. Other than that all types of nuts that are plain nuts, roasted or raw are no longer gluten-free and are processed and plants that also process wheat... -

Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?
@Xravith, How are you doing? Two cookies are not enough. For testing, you need to be eating a minimum of ten grams of gluten for two weeks minimum before testing for Celiac antibodies. Ten grams of gluten is roughly five or six slices of gluten containing bread per day for two weeks minimum. Breads that contain lots of gluten typically...- advice

@knitty kitty Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better. I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?

I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too. Like @Rogol72, I had to cut out all gluten-free processed foods, dairy, oats, and eggs before my skin cleared up. I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. I also supplement with the eight essential B vitamins. (Meat and liver are great sources of B vitamins.) Low levels of certain B vitamins ( B12, Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Niacin) can affect the nerves, resulting in itching and tingling. Niacin especially helps with the itching and healing the blisters. Tallow Balm helps with the healing, too. Zinc and Vitamin A also help with skin health. I've gotten such good results with Niacin and the other vitamins mentioned that I've never had to go on Dapsone. -

Other than that all types of nuts that are plain nuts, roasted or raw are no longer gluten-free and are processed and plants that also process wheat. Has anyone found a source for Pecans, almonds peanuts, walnuts, Pine nuts, etc that is gluten-free?
