I had few to no symptoms, mainly some nausea. Without symptoms it is silent celiac disease.

A very common experience, Treza. I was essentially a silent celiac and only diagnosed because of persistently elevated liver enzymes for 13 years leading up to diagnosis. There is much ignorance and outdated knowledge in the medical community, especially among general practitioners concerning the wide range of presentations and symptoms in celiac disease. But I would consider nausea to be a classic symptom and not silent.

There are many non classic symptoms that are caused by Celiac Disease and misdiagnosed as another disease.  And many symptoms we are led to believe are normal part of aging.  Part of the problem is the misguided belief that wheat is essential to health and god given.

@Treza,

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, many of us only develop more severe symptoms after years of mild symptoms which often get attributed to other factors and overlooked.  

Do talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with vitamins and minerals while you are healing.  Subclinical deficiencies can affect your health.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 helps improve nausea.  Vitamin D, the eight essential B vitamins, and magnesium levels are often low in newly diagnosed Celiacs.

Hope this helps.

      @Rebeccaj,  When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air.  Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract.   If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies.

      ok thanks for your advice. But my question was what happens when someone you know in a house is cooking pasta or toast that's flour  Airbourne without eating.?

      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health.  Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption.  Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms.   Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming in macrophages https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39890689/#:~:text=Our mechanistic study revealed that,necessary to protect against colitis. "Conclusion and implications: Our study provides evidence linking thiamine deficiency with proinflammatory macrophage activation and colitis aggravation, suggesting that monitoring thiamine status and adjusting thiamine intake is necessary to protect against colitis."

      Do keep in mind that most gluten free flours are not enriched nor fortified with vitamins and minerals like gluten containing flours are required to do.   Consuming a diet high in carbohydrates without sufficient B vitamins to digest and process them into energy can lead to High Calorie Malnutrition and weight gain. Deficiency symptoms of B vitamins resemble gastrointestinal symptoms when after eating gluten.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a form of Thiamine deficiency.   Do talk to your doctors about supplementing with essential nutrients while on the gluten free diet, especially if you're consuming processed foods.

      Do be sure to talk to your doctors and dieticians about supplementing with a B Complex and extra Thiamine (Benfotiamine, TTFD, thiamine hydrochloride) and other nutrients one might be low in due to malabsorption of nutrients in Celiac Disease. This study shows that Thiamine deficiency and Vitamin C deficiency is frequently found in Hashimoto's.  From personal experience, Thiamine and Vitamin C has helped my Hashimoto's.
