Hi Nashville,

I'd love to check out the article, but it came back as "File Not Found".

I'd be grateful if you would see about providing a little more info so that I'll be able to find my way there.

Thanks, and best wishes,

- Henry

Fixed the link, I think.

OK, problem for me: this is derived from aspergillus fungus, which I am allergic to. Not an option for me, I guess.

Now for my question: this article states that celiac is a caucasian disease. Is this really true?

No, I don't think so. North Africans and some Asian groups have high rates of celiac.

It might have been more accurate to describe it as, "a caucasian-diet based" disease...

I'm quoting Dr. Alessio Fasano here, sorry I don't have the link.

". . .this observation has been expanded to other regional areas, including North Africa, Asia, Oceania and South America, where celiac disease is now recognized as a frequent condition affecting approximately 0.5% to 1% of the general population."

". . .The bottom line is that if you search for it, you will find it."

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      Natural remedies

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
