Highly fluorinated chemicals aka PFAs can increase risk for diabetes and coeliac disease in children

To All,

I recently came across this new research that show Environmental Toxins can increase the risks of Celiac disease in Children?

Could this also be happening in Adults?

https://medicalxpress.com/news/2020-09-highly-fluorinated-chemicals-diabetes-coeliac.html

Have they found an Environmental trigger for Celiac disease and if so what can people do about it if anything?

I know Celiac.com will write a more exhaustive article about it soon.....I just wanted to get it out there for people to comment on and provide feedback too!

I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advise.

You know, it seems every substance known to humanity has been implicated in some potential health risk. It's impossible to avoid everything and be alive. I think it comes down to avoiding the worst of them in so far as is reasonable and possible. Often, the same substances that benefit us in one way harm us in another. Now that our technology and industry have removed the specter of starvation for most of us, we can turn our attention to the finer details of health problems. Sorry, a bit of a rant.

      Thanks Kitty for your guidance. I will do the test to see if I have nutrients deficiencies and at the same time re organize my diet to see if that helps with my vertigo and other symptoms.

      Yes, Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiac Disease and Meniere's both.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace test to check for thiamine insufficiency.  Diuretics can cause excess thiamine loss.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that improves intestinal health.  Thiamine in the form TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) helped improve my Meniere's syndrome.

      Kitty, to correct the anemia I got IV iron and B complex for 30 days. Then my next step will be test for nutritional deficiencies.

      Welcome to the forum, @nataliallano, There's a dozen or so vitamins and about as many minerals that our bodies need to live and thrive.  Our vitamins and minerals can become depleted in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption and inflammation, so we need to eat a nutritionally dense diet, and keep inflammation to a minimum.

      No, not if you've got an official diagnosis already.   Let's continue our conversation on this thread... Thanks
