How GliadinX Saved My Mom on Thanksgiving

For those of you who haven't yet heard about GliadinX, it is a dietary supplement with the highest concentration of AN-PEP, Prolyl Endopeptidase (Aspergillus Niger), and, unlike other enzymes, these have been shown in studies to break down gluten in the stomach.

I've been using them regularly for months, and I tend to take them whenever I eat out, or eat at a friend's house, so basically whenever I don't have control over my food's preparation. Since I began doing this I haven't had any incidents of upset stomach, which are my typical symptoms if I get any cross contamination. However, it is hard to prove a negative...after all, perhaps I haven't had any issues because all of the food I ate was 100% gluten-free...right?

I will forever be adamant about not promoting this product as a full on gluten eliminator/miracle pill that makes gluten safe. Fact is if you eat gluten even if taking a double dose of this you will still get sick.....with light CC and issues where a food might contain very minor below 20ppm I would say yes it might eliminate all noticeable symptoms but your still going to get a slight spike in antibodies.
I am also very biased to this KIND of product as there was another one years ago with the same promise and it did not work at all. I feel very envious that admin here can take it and deal with the light CC that might be happening when he attempts to eat out and VERY envious and I will admit angry that I could not afford said product this past week when I tried a supposedly gluten-free hemp protein to later learn it was CCed somewhere and tested positive on a nima when the last canister from this brand was fine.....yeah I admit I would have tried the stuff again if I could afford it to reduce all my symptoms.

Again stuff is good for the occasional maybe CC issues, or products with very low gluten that are FDA gluten free for super sensitive individuals, but do not go thinking this will allow you to constantly eat dangerously or even eat full on gluten foods. Your antibodies will ramp up and you will cause damage.

The article says it's paid advertising at the bottom. Not sure why it's in the Publicity and Publications forum if it's advertising.

      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.
