I have had good luck with eating deep fat fried foods and only mild symptoms of my fatigue and headaches.  Can anyone else relate to this?

Welcome to the forum! 

Do you mean that you eat food from fryers that also cook gluten items, and you don't have serious issues? If so, the problem with this approach is that, depending on how often you do this, you could be causing villi damage if you have celiac disease (you haven't mentioned whether or not you have celiac disease), which can lead to more serious issues later.

I have been on a strict Celiac diet for 20 years and I tried a deep fried breaded cheese stick that I have been craving for years and no symptoms, then I tried a deep fried breaded fish sandwich and also no problems. I am 74 years old and wondering if after all these years the villa has healed, is that possible?

Yes, it is likely your villi healed, but if you are exposed to gluten regularly again the damage will likely come back and cause some potentially serious health issues.

Thank you so much and I am still very careful not to eat it.

      gluten-free stool softener needed for after surgery

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      A typical CYA response--since they don't label it that way they don't test for gluten, thus can't guarantee it's gluten-free, even though no gluten ingredients are used in the product.

      Searching for the source - anyone have problems with Crunchmaster crackers?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I understand your immense frustration after 17 years of excellent management; it's incredibly disorienting to have your numbers spike without a clear cause or physical symptoms. Given your thorough investigation, the Crunchmaster crackers are a very plausible culprit, despite their certification. Certification ensures gluten is below 20ppm, but if you are consuming them daily, even that tiny amount could theoretically accumulate over time to cause an immune response (elevated IgG) without triggering your acute symptomatic response (which is often IgA-mediated). Since your son, the perfect control subject, doesn't eat them, this is an excellent hypothesis to test. I would recommend a strict elimination trial: remove the crackers completely for 4-6 weeks and then re-test your IgG levels. If the numbers drop significantly, you have your answer. Other less obvious sources to consider if the crackers aren't to blame include any other new packaged goods (spices, nuts, chocolate, supplements), a change in the recipe of a trusted product, or even lipstick or toothpaste. Your methodical approach is exactly what will solve this mystery.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Jenny (AZ via TX) · Posted

      When using daily med to look up prescriptions, is there a way to filter ingredients such as gluten or wheat?  I usually take only a couple of drugs but since I’m having surgery, I have 5 new ones to take for a short time post-op. Thanks!   For non prescription drugs, Walgreens has a line called Free&Pure that has gluten free written on the packaging if anyone is interested.

      Purposefully Glutening Myself?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Dr. Jean Duane published a book on Celiac.com, and although all chapters are worth reading, there are some that cover this perfectly. Here is the link to the 1st chapter: This chapter and others cover this topic well:

      I called Colace to see what they would say. They cannot guarantee the products are gluten free.  No gluten ingredients but mentioned ingredients from pigs.  I did explain the pig part wasn’t the issue, just gluten.  I had asked about Colace clear as I had read that one was gluten free.
