Yup. I've been doing the South Beach Diet for about 6 weeks now, and I'm down about 9 pounds - yay! Of course I'm having to modify it a bit to be gluten and dairy-free, but since it's fairly light on grains anyway, the gluten-free part has been relatively easy. Dairy, unfortunately, is somewhat trickier; I was substituting soy milk/soy yogurt for awhile, but now I'm starting to suspect that I may be intolerant to those as well. :(

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Waterdance · Posted

      Thanks but that amount of gluten will def have me in chronic pain and discomfort. My hemorrhoids issues are quite severe. Part of the reason I've abandoned diagnosis.

      Are you exposed to any airborne sources of gluten? We have an older house and constantly fixing something. Cutting into old wall board or plaster can release gluten into the air. Also, the sickest i ever got was from taking care of my neighbor's chickens, they get excited and kick up everything, air filled with dust. Sure enough, their food contained gluten grain.  Any pets? If they are eating gluten, they lick themselves, you pet them .... my pets all eat grain free pet food. If I pet someone else's critters, which I am compelled to do, I immediately was hands.

      For the blood screening test or any other testing, make sure you continue eating gluten every day until all testing is concluded. I'm traveling right now, but hopefully someone else can provide the link on how much you need. I think it's about 4 slices of gluten bread a day.

      The early days are often tricky for the newly diagnosed.   There were times I thought I'd never feel better, but it just takes some people longer than others.   Hang on in there, and keep posting with any questions as they occur or if you need any encouragement.

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      Thank you, Scott, for sharing the article. I’ve been puzzled by products with gluten-free certifications that also include allergen disclosures stating the product is processed in facilities that also process wheat. It appears industry has moved on. I have little, if any, trust left in the certifications and labeling.
