I don't usually post here, but would like to share some information about the wide ranging neurological problems associated with gluten sensitvity...with or without celiac disease. Check out Post #3. If anybody seems to fall into this category..please consider stopping by the Braintalk Gluten Sensitivity forum where we have an increased interest in the neurological aspects of gluten sensitivity.

Cara,

Welcome to the neighborhood. I can second your suggestion to visit the link you listed, particularly for those with neurological presentations and/or for those of us who don't have DQ2 or 8, but do have DQ1's. The site has lots of info regarding what gluten can do to some people even if they don't have celiac disease. I find that site a very good complement to this site.

You're welcome! As time goes on The Gluten File has become a collaborative effort of many, so I don't want to take all the credit for it, but I truly appreciate your kind words and its nice to know the information is making its way around.

The Gluten File began out of pure frustration because although my family looks very much like your average celiac family...we do not have celiac disease...don't even carry the main genes. We are definitely gluten sensitive, though!  I just kept collecting information that I found fascinating...that "fit" and supported our unique presentation...which turns out is not so unique but grossly underrecognized and unacknowledged by most celiac experts.

But,  I have to admit that even I have not read EVERYTHING in The Gluten File! I do think its a great collection of data, though  :P .

If you've been reading Braintalk you probably know my story, but in case anyone else is curious, you can find it second post here:

Anyone who feels so inclined might want to add their own entry, even if you don't have the time to take on an additional forum. I believe we can learn from each others experiences!

I also believe the more forums the merrier...the more people we can reach. What I find rewarding about Braintalk is that it is this huge umbrella forum of hundreds of neurological, neuromuscular, neuropyschiatric diseases...so we can reach so many people with neurological disease who would never in a million years think of gluten as the culprit...especially when it stands alone without any gut evidence of celiac disease.

This seems like a friendly place. I may pop in and read from time to time! We call it 'boarding around'...lol!

Welcome Cara - nice to see you post over here. I can't believe I haven't seen Al pop in yet... :)

Anyway, always good to help more people make connections, especially about non-Celiac gluten intolerance.

Take care!

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped...

One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
