I imagine a number of people are adamantly against genetically modified crops, but this article is a step in the right direction for many of us.

I have mentioned about this before but it sort of a pointless endeavor lol. The whole gluten protein is what give wheat its good bread/baked goods attribute. You remove it and you having to add gums and binders to it just like non wheat or gluten flours......you also then have a food you body might not identify as food as it has been genetically modified. It will also be more expensive then even other gluten free flours.............SO better off just not even bothering with it.

Snowball chance in hell of passing here in the US as a treatment, but if you can use crisper etc to genetically remove gluten from wheat...you can remove the gene and turn off the immune response in humans to gluten.....yeah they are not going to do that as there is no money in it, and it could go VERY wrong and kill people or make s$#& 10x worse.
Just going to drop this and hope the freaks trying to make this crap die in some horrible accident.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
