- Scott Adams replied to Waterdance's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms18Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, not something one "outgrows"; the historical belief that children did has been completely debunked by modern science. The immune response to gluten is lifelong. Furthermore, the idea that a strong immune system can "subdue" celiac disease is incorrect—the disease is the immune system mistakenly attacking the body. ... -

Thank you for your comment Daisyskd - I do not have a soy or peanut allergy (I have many others, but not these) so that was never a concern for me. I still have not figured out where my high numbers are coming from. Had an endoscopy done, which shows NO damage (yay) but my high numbers are still unexplainable. Very frustrating. I have a meeting with my celiac...- high gluten

Hi Everyone, I was just diagnosed with Celiac Disease and I am also new to this group. I am overwhelmed by thinking of all the products you ingest including prescription medications, and even toothpaste. Do people contact the manufacturer ? What toothpaste is gluten-free?

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, not something one "outgrows"; the historical belief that children did has been completely debunked by modern science. The immune response to gluten is lifelong. Furthermore, the idea that a strong immune system can "subdue" celiac disease is incorrect—the disease is the immune system mistakenly attacking the body. Symptoms manifest due to this autoimmune response, not because the immune system is too weak to suppress it. Finally, wheat is not chemically addictive, though the habit of eating it can be powerful and difficult to break. While maintaining adequate Vitamin D is crucial for overall immune function and bone health in celiac patients, this theory overstates its role. Vitamin D deficiency is a common consequence of celiac disease due to malabsorption in a damaged gut, not a proven root cause of its onset. The claim that high-dose Vitamin D can effectively neutralize the systemic autoimmune reaction to gluten is not supported by clinical evidence; a strict gluten-free diet remains the only known treatment. Furthermore, recommending a daily intake of 10,000 IU is potentially dangerous without medical supervision, as it can lead to hypercalcemia and kidney damage, despite newer, higher safety thresholds. -

I still have not figured out where my high numbers are coming from. Had an endoscopy done, which shows NO damage (yay) but my high numbers are still unexplainable. Very frustrating. I have a meeting with my celiac doc this week and I am very curious as to what he might suggest.
