Around the flint area I know of 2 dr's. Neither are gi dr's. One is an allergist Gale Cookingham (allergy and intolerances) and one is a specialty clinic that is not covered under insurance.

In regards to the specialty clinic- She is a md, she has a clinic that deals with holistic medicine. Both were recommended by enterolab. The only gi dr's around here only follow the old method of celiac diagnosis.

For the ladies in the lansing area, Where do you shop at? What health food stores do you use? Where I live there is only one small one, they can order some things but they are costly. I love the personal touch since we have been shopping there since I was a little girl buying popcorn and vitamins ( he was the first in the area to sell them).

Im taking a trip to ann arbor soon to go to whole foods and Im excited to have lots of variety.

Whole Foods has some good stuff (love the pizza crust and sandwhich bread) but you might also want to go to Hillers (in Arborland). They carry a lot of Celiac Specalties items and some other major brands too.

They are litterally right down the street from each other. Whole Foods is at Washtenaw and Huron Parkway, HIller is in the ARborland mall on Washtenaw, just a bit west the US23 exit.

I am originally from Michigan, have lived on Long Island, New York now for almost 2 yrs--I love it here, but miss my Michigan family and friends. I lived in the middle of the mitten--Gratiot County, Ashley to be specific. I am going to Michigan on vacation in the next month or so. There is a great store in Lansing on the east side called Food For Life--it's on Grand River by Circuit City, I believe. Kroger stores have a fairly good gluten free area too, at least the one in St Johns does.

Guest AutumnE

Thanks I'll have to check it out. I do shop at kroger and meijer's. Meijer's has quite a few cake mixes and goodies cheaper than kroger or the health food store.

I was born and raised in Clinton Township (Detroit suburb) and lived in Ann Arbor for 4 years GO BLUE! I now live in Washington DC but take trips back to MI all the time. I'll be up there mid-July and plan to hit the bakery in Royal Oak--Sugar Kisses. They have gluten-free items and vegan stuff too!

Anyone hear of a pizza place in Detroit? My sister heard Mojo in the Morning talking about it on her way to work but she couldn't really remember the name. Belicio or something... Anyone?? I miss pizza parlor pizza. :(

There was a Belcibo, but I think it closed down. I'd really recommend Guillo's Itallian in the Livonia area. Pasta, breadsticks and pizza I think. Very yummy. Kind of a nicer place, but you could bring kids too. But plan to enjoy a leisurely meal, it's not fast.

If you're coming to Ann Arbor area, Stadium Market has both regular and gluten-free pizza.

Hi....I'm from the Flint area. I lived in Durand for 11 years when I was young and stupid. We got a good deal on a house back then. I about died of boredom in Shiawassee co. It was good to move back home.

I get most of my gluten-free goodies at Meijer's Kroger's and Dale's Health foods. There are no gluten-free restaurants close to me.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
