No, Please, Not Chocolate!

I love bittersweet chocolate that has no dairy or wheat in it. Its usually the stuff that indicates the percentage of chocolate in the bar like 70% or more *drool*. But I seem to always react to it with an odd feeling in the tum and a bit of diarrhea the next day. Could my body play so fouly with me by denying me chocolate? Anyone else have an issue with chocolate?

if you have trouble with soy, that may be the culprit. there are a handful of soy free chocolates out there, by specialty makers. I don't know them, but a couple other people on the board do.

I tried enjoy life's chocolate kisses that is gluten-free, dairy-free, casein free, soy free, egg free, nut free and still reacted to the chocolate. So my guess is that I am intolerant to chocolate or maybe cocoa- sad but true. Maybe your is a soy intolrance, try enjoy life's chocolate kisses- i got them from Mrs. Greens.

I've tried several. Some from Trader Joe's. They're made from regional cocoa beans from Ecuador and another country. Sort of fancy, schmancy chocolate. I don't believe there was any soy listed on the label, but I'll have to go back and look. I don't react badly to soy sauce (without the gluten), so I have a feeling it probably is the chocolate. Life is cruel! Cruel, I say!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
