Hello!

I have recently been contacted to participate in a research study on celiac disease at the Beth Israel Hospital. I will attach some of the details that I received in an email. There is no compensation (other than validated parking and gluten-free snacks), and the obvious of helping in the research on celiac disease and spreading awareness!

I asked if it would be ok to post the details of the study on this forum and was given the ok. Please contact Jessica at the number below or email her at jgeorge1@bidmc.harvard.edu if you are interested (she is very nice). The study seems very interesting...

I look forward to doing it and helping the celiac community! :)

Hi Meg,

This is Jessica from The Celiac Center at BIDMC. I was wondering if you might be interested in participating in our current research study for people with celiac disease. It requires filling out 4 surveys, meeting with the nutritionist and bringing in a 3-day food record, and providing a blood sample. You were interested in one of our focus groups back in Sept I figured you may be interested in this study. Is this something that you might be interested in participating in? Wed and Fri's are completely research days for us so we have alot of appointments on those days. It takes about 2 hrs and we validate parking and provide some gluten-free snacks. We have seen a lull in our recruitment and are really trying to make our target number of 150 by the end of June so please let me know. Thanks!

Jessica

      Get your total IGA checked to make sure your celiac antibody test scores are trustworthy.

      I do eat 4 slices of wheat bread with almond butter. Yes it was a reference to my iron consumption.

      To give you a frame of reference for pretesting gluten consumption necessary to ensure valid antibody testing, here is the current recommendation for those who have been on a gluten free diet: The daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks. Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken...

      Thanks for your insight. I've been eating wheat bread at least 5 times a week for several months. I've been eating chicken or eggs 5 days a week for at least a year.

Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken. They are not sources of gluten. Was that in reference to dietary iron consumption?
