My Niece

My niece posted on FB about her broken leg not healing. They told her it's just not healing so she has to be in a cast longer. I told her she needed to be tested for Celiac. I wish my family was closer. They all live in Ca. I live in Mi. Gosh it bothers me my family is having so many problems yet I don't think any of them are getting tested for Celiac. I think my niece is going to be tested for it tho. She is searching for answers.

I am glad she has you to speak up.  I hope she will get some answers and soon walk again.

I understand your frustrations.  I have multiple family members that have so many signs of Celiac and they won't get tested.  A few of them have, but not the one's with the majority of the problems.  All I hear is " I don't have a lot of stomach problems, I can't have celiac".  I can't make them get tested. I won't even say " I told you so" if they happen to test positive later.  I will just help them through to the best of my ability. 

 

I hope your niece gets some answers.

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.

      Welcome to the forum @Ceekay! If you have celiac disease then you can't eat wheat in other countries because it would still contain gliadin, the harmful part of the grain. Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease?

      I can eat wheat products safely and without discomfort when traveling to Mexico, Outer Mongolia, and Japan. I feel that US wheat, barley, and rye are grown from genetically-modified seeds that have had something unhealthy done to them, that causes a bad reaction in many of us.

      I think all barley and barley malt  have gluten. I would avoid it. The only gluten-free beer I've tried that tastes good is by Holidaily, a Colorado brewery. Their Fat Randy's IPA is great, except that it's almost impossible to find and grocers won't order it (they're at the mercy of their "food distributors," who seem to hate Holidaily). If you can find any Holidaily, try it--it's great. Never mind Spain -;)
