Speaking of advertising, I recently joined this group, and got an advertising e-mail from "Scott-Free Newsletter". I think the only way they could have gotten my e-mail is from joining this group, and I'm a bit POed about it!

The board adminstrator (Scott) sends updates from time to time to interested members about celiac.com, the parent site to this board. You can opt out during registration--apparently you didn't. You can change your mind at any time. Click on "My Controls" at the top of the page, select "Email settings" under "Options" on the left hand side, and clear the check box beside "Send me any updates sent by the board administrator." You will no longer receive the update notices. Roughly one in three is about the newsletter (like yesterday's). The rest are about new information posted on the celiac.com site, which is often useful.

Claire, the founder and administrator of this site is Scott Adams (who also has celiac disease, by the way, he founded this site and this forum to help other sufferers). The newsletter you mentioned is his newsletter, with useful information on new developments on celiac disease. As Peter (psawyer) mentioned, you are able to opt out of getting it, which you can still do.

Hello Diamondheart:

The fact that you got an email from us should not be a surprise--it is spelled out clearly in our "Privacy Policy" that isn't hidden from anyone--the link to it is on every page in this forum and the policy states:

"Information about our customers is very important to us, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. We do not sell, rent or give away our mail lists or e-mail lists to anyone. We collect personal information from you whenever you register for e-mail updates, register on our message board and calendar, send us e-mail, subscribe to our newsletter or send an article from our Web site using our "Tell A Friend" feature. You will be added to our site's e-mail updates, and you can opt out of these updates at any time by following the removal instructions at the bottom of each e-mail update."

Instead of being "POed" about such things it's always better to read a site's privacy policy in advance before signing up for any services from the site. In the case of our site's email updates opting out of them takes two mouse clicks and about 2 seconds. Opting in will give you updates to new articles that are added to celiac.com, as well as other marketing material that does not exceed 2-3 e-mail per month.

Take care,

Scott

yesterday i replied to a thread about candidiasis and celiac. i can't seem to find it now. the thread, or my post, that is. has it been deleted or something?

lindalee Enthusiast

tried that 3 times - wasnt' there :huh:

Ursa Major Collaborator

I'm stumped here. I went to check out all your posts, and the last one before this one was from August 11th. Meaning, the one you're looking for (your reply from yesterday) doesn't exist. Somehow it didn't post, apparently.

mle-ii Explorer

It was removed. :( I had some posts I really wanted to save. Oh and I wasn't the reason why the thread was deleted by the way. Perhaps I can dig through my temporary internet files to find them and add the ones I wrote to my blog.

What particular information in the thread were you interested in?

mle-ii Explorer

Perhaps it was deleted. :(

NIKKI, I'm allergic to latex, so I buy unpowdered vinyl gloves from a company in New Jersey, George Glove Company. I use a lot of them when I'm painting.Ma'am and Miss Firstname are fine with me; it's a custom here in the South. But just wait until you're old (I'm 73.), and some stupid, middle-aged, male (It's always a male!), sales clerk calls you "young lady." The idiots think I'm stupid and senile enough to be flattered!!! :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: A couple of years ago I decided to stop giving them a polite smile, and began a campaign to re-educate them. Now, when an idiot calls me "young lady," I say, "I know you think you're flattering me, but you aren't. I'm old, and you're insulting my intelligence." :D :D :D Cissie

I looked, do you remember what words you might have used?

I search for all of your posts with the word latex in it and all I found was this thread. I'm guessing either I didn't use the right word or else it was deleted.

She was writing about her problems with her mouth and how she took off her latex gloves and ate a potato and somehow after that she has gum problems. I wrote back I was just getting ready to use bleach and gloves. Oh, she said Playtex Gloves. and also latex - I had never heard of such a reaction. Thanks, I'll keep trying.

I tried to find the quote with George Glove Co. search...nothing came up?

If you can't find it, it was probably deleted.

Thank you Andrea and Everyone. I hated to give up - thought I was losing it! :)

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
