We keep seeing this summary of the research study the authors fail to point out a sample size of 59 is small. Additionally, research should be peer reviewed and the experiment reproduceable  with similar results by other researchers to draw conclusions. 

Another summary of the same circulated research study with only 59 subjects stating it's "hard " evidence based research. 59 subjects to most scientist is a small test group. 

I could eat Fodmaps and fructan foods before my gi challenge. My digestion got derailed for many foods not just fodmaps and fructan. Heck I had to blend my foods for months fodmap, fructan whatever, my proteins .

my intolerances are cross the board gluten, plus milk, and corn. Processed  foods with chemical and flavoring additives also were a problem.

Who keeps paying for this article to make the lay person circulation? And continue to perpetuate anti celiac/  anti NCGS in larger society.

I officially consider it overdone.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
