My co-worker is Asian and she's going to take me to a market that she goes to tomorrow. I know that I've heard people say that Asian markets are good for people with celiac disease because a lot of their stuff is naturally gluten free. Do you have any ideas for stuff that I should be on the look out for?

anything fresh!! Ooh, you are so lucky! Of course, wonton wrappers and such are out. Read the labels (if you can) on the sauces and stuff. Have your friend translate for you. If they have a good soy sauce (not made with wheat - just the fermented soy) snap it up!!! That would be my plan if I could go.

rice noodles - the thread style. good for so many things, including the fastest soup-for-dinner you've ever made from 'scratch'. (Broth, bag of small, frozen, cooked shrimp, rice noodles.)

rice-paper, for making spring rolls. (you'll probably find it next to the rice noodles.)

and peruse the sauces. the labeling may identify when ones are gluten-free. (like chili sauce usually is.)

Thanks for the help. We just got back and I got spring roll wraps and the noodles to go in there. I also got chili sauce. Can you tell me how to make the stuff though? I got some tips from my friend, but I want to see how you make stuff too.

Besides the lazy shrimp soup recipe I mentioned, you can use it in place of rice for stir fries. For spring rolls, you can pick a few vegetables you like in them, soak the paper to soften it (a sheet at a time), and roll them up, either baking, pan frying, or deep frying.

I believe ThaiKitchen's website has a number of recipes as well.

If you like Thai food, try and find some tamarind juice. Here is a link to Thai recipes.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
