Oh, let me tell you all a story. My husband's trusted chiropractor had his wife work with him, and she would utilize kinesiology to tell you what you were allergic to - by having you bring suspected culprit food allergens - and having you put them into your own mouth - and having you PULL HER FINGER - and she would gauge by how strong or weak your grip was whether or not you were allergic to the food.  When he told me this, I said.....and you were born yesterday?  And, you paid her for this?  And, you brought the foods with you?  And you fell for this BS?  There is a sucker born every minute.  While I think chiropractic has its place, many chiropractors overstep their boundaries.  They should not be DIAGNOSING anything, and certainly should not be practicing kinesiology.

that is sadly hilarious ^_^  and I bet they made a lot of $$$$ doing it :angry: 

 

the chiro I used to go to brought in a nurse practitioner (who can write scripts under another doctor's license) and now his waiting room is full of scumbags/pillheads.  yayyyy............ :(  I don't go there anymore.

In most states a nurse practitiioner can write scripts for most meds on their own, without a Dr.

Some states restrict narcotics/pain meds...ect to Drs. only.

 

I don't doubt this happens though.

right.  just being clear, because the chiropractor himself couldn't prescribe meds.   <which is kind of the point of getting adjusted without being dependent on pain meds) 

 

it's extra for the magic wand :o:P  seriously, that guy was good.

Did you click through enought to see that he has the nerve to charge $1000 to become a certified practioner?  He's probably trying to make more money off that nonsense filled e-summit he just had.

Yep!  That is why my plan is better!  I can print you a piece of paper for much less money!   :lol:

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
