Joe C And Celiac.. Confused


someone

Recommended Posts

someone Newbie

So I found out that Joe C (the 3'9" rapper that toured with Kid Rock) was actually a celiac and that is the reason his growth was stunted. I looked it up on wikipedia and other sites and it said that he had to take pills and get dialysis because of his disease and he eventually died due to complications with celiac. However, wikipedia also has an article about celiac that says there are no medications for it which I had also heard before (what were the pills/dialysis about?). Also, how would he have died from celiac disease?

Perhaps he was one of the many unfortunate people who go many, many years without proper diagnosis or ignored his symptoms and he developed other health issues due to un-treated celiac.

It sounds like his kidneys shut down, perhaps he had kidney disease also.

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.
