CELIAC TEST RESULTS OFFERED IN JUST TEN MINUTES

HOLLYWOOD, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2006--The latest advancement

in the screening for food allergy, food intolerance and Celiac Disease

is available through US-based Optimum Health Resource Laboratories. With

an estimated 70-80% of the world's chronically ill population suffering

from medical conditions either caused and/or aggravated by immune

responses to foods, it is anticipated that for many these laboratory

innovations will be the key to gaining optimal health.

"Our collection kits are a convenient, reliable and cost-effective

method for an individual or medical professional to identify the hidden

culprits behind many chronic ill-health conditions of unknown origin.

Additionally, our collection kits can be administered in the comfort of

one's home or at a doctor's office," says John Kernohan, Director of

Optimum Health Resource Laboratories.

For food allergy and food intolerance, a unique collection kit is used

by simply pricking the end of the finger to collect the tiny sample of

blood required for testing. According to Charlotte Newbury, Optimum

Health Resource Laboratories' Operations Manager, "The absorbent pad

safely preserves the specimen until it reaches the laboratory, which is then

tested against 96 foods. In addition to the results and a 48-page

support program we produce for the patient, we also include 12 months of

telephone and Internet support at no additional cost!"

"For Celiac Disease, our kit detects the antibodies associated with celiac disease

and gluten intolerance by displaying results within 10 minutes of

collecting the blood - there is no need to send the specimen to the

laboratory for analysis," states Kernohan.

its kits for food allergy, food intolerance and Celiac Disease, visit

Is this test effective if a person has a gluten intolerance and has not been eating gluten for some time? If it is cheap enough, I might try it for confirmation. Barbara

      @RMJ it makes sense as it’s something I’ve experienced more than once. Currently 24 weeks and baby is doing well! Will be seeking more medical advice today

      Thank you! This is great information and perfect timing because we have our first appointment for a second opinion tomorrow.

      Bright blood in the stool would indicate bleeding down at the lower end in the colorectal area as opposed to the small bowel below the stomach where celiac manifests damage to the villous lining. Are these blood stools persistent? It's not unusual for this to happen once in a while to most anyone when a small surface vessel breaks, kind of like a nose bleed. As Scott Adams said, you must continue to consume regular amounts of gluten if the specialist will be doing additional testing for celiac disease, which could include an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining.

      Checkouts gluten-free recipes at twww.redstaryeast.com We tried a bread machine years ago and weren’t happy with results. Bread machines have pre-set rise & bake times.  Unfortunately, the program doesn’t adjust to slight differences when measuring, relative humidity or temperature of ingredients & in kitchens.  Lots of efforts for ONE odd- sized loaf that hard to cut into useable slices.  College-aged son found best use for bread machine was as heavy duty mixer that ‘kept dust in the box.’  He would pre-measure ingredients for 2-3 loaves & use machine mix up individual batches.      Since gluten-free bread needs  to rise only once, each recipe of dough went into a loaf pan. Pans sat counter to rise—time dependent of temp in kitchen. Then, baked in oven until he, not machine, decided it was done.     Took ~10 min extra up front to measure & mix additions but adds nothing to rise & bake times.     Loaves are great for slicing (Slice extra before freezing!). One mess to clean up, saves time & energy since you need to bake  as is half as often (If  you plan to bake lots more than bread, opt for KitchenAid/ heavy duty mixer instead.  Cover with dish towel to capture dust!)     Personally, I’m sure I had as a kid since I’ve never been a fan  of bread. .  Have been wrapping corn tortillas around things for 40+ years.  Can still get a dozen 12-pks of tortillas for same or less than price as 1 load of gluten-free bread. PLUS. the tortillas have more nutrients!
