Do you wear an N-95 mask left over from the pandemic when you handle flour?

Do you eat out in restaurants?

Do you take vitamins?

No mask

Do not eat out

My vitamins are gluten free

You may want to wear an N-95 mask to filter out any possible gluten, at least when you handle the flour.

Do you eat processed gluten free foods?

I find that I sometimes have symptoms due to cross-contact with foods that *might* be contaminated in the processing. 100% gluten-free certification is something I look for in every processed food I consume.

 mcg Vit. B12Hi dlaino  - You mentioned that you are now feeling sick all the time. If this is making you miserable you might want to go to your health provider, describe what you are feeling and your symptoms so that theySome of the people here can give you useful advice about taking supp;ements and the amounts you could take to improve your overall health. I have increased my Vit. B12  can help you figure out what is happening. Just because you have gluten intolerance does not mean that your current problems are related to that. Some of the people here can give you useful advice about supplements and how much to take for improved health. I recently upped my Vit. D3 from 50 mcg to 150 mcg and now take either 500 mcg or 1000 mcg of vit. B12 sublingual daily instead of once a week.                                   

Take care

@dlaino,

Hi im from northern europe are blood type 0+ have celiac with code K900 on the paper from doctor, have low vitamin D and b12 and folate, zinc, manganese and high copper it say in test. The best food i have eaten for now is LCHF, i tried paleo but i was missing the dairy. And i love the cream in sauces. LCHF is good choice there is no grains in the dishes. It's completly gluten free lifestyle i say. Because i feel good to eat it.

Low carb high fat , this diet is good fo diabetes patients and those who want to get down in weight and have their bloodsugar on good levels. They don't eat carbs they eat high fat products as high fat is not dangerous. It's a myth. Your get more gallstones without fat. When i start eat more fat my gallstones have went off. They not eat grains and sugar. They eat whole fat products and feel better then ever. When i did not eat so much fat before i had problems with my gallbladder and stones. When i started LCHF my doctor said all of my stones have dissapear from gallbladder from last screening of my bladder. I feel better and not tired as i had eat a lot of carbs then my bloodsugar should go up and down like a carousel. Carbs will turn my body to sugar and store as fat. Many doctors now have changed their minds that high fat was so dangerous. But now it have better respond to protect our body. I eat it and i have not feel so good ever. Its a lifestyle for me. I had diabetes 2 before now i don't need to take my insulin anymore.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?
    • trents
      Would it be rude to ask your age?
    • pothosqueen
      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
