It is so difficult to find a healthy diet out there that is also gluten-free. I am so limited on the diets out there. Has anyone tried "The best life diet", by Bob Green? I wanted to buy the book but i don't know if i should waste my money if it wouldnt help someone on a gluten-free diet. I need healthy gluten-free options! :rolleyes:

I can't help you about the book, as I haven't seen it. But, when I'm considering a book, if I can get it at the library, I'll check it and review it first before I buy - and IF I buy it, I always try to find a used book online at much less the price of a new book.

As far as the "diet" - iit's really just a matter of learning what is safe to eat and what isn't. It's always good to start out with whole foods such as meat, veggies and fruit, and rice, and then introduce other foods one at a time so you can be certain about what you may or may not be reacting to, if you do react.

Nini, a member on this forum, has a "Newbie Kit" on her website that is very helpful in listing safe and unsafe foods, and other products. Here's a link to her site - scroll down to the bottom and you'll find the link to the Open Original Shared Link

Stick around on this forum and read all you can. You'll be up to speed on the diet very quickly.

      Maybe celiac but maybe NCGS that was misdiagnosed as IBS morphing gradually into celiac. Is NCGS a new category to you? It shares many of the same GI symptoms with celiac disease but does not damage the small bowel lining like celiac.

      Oral thrush question

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thiamine has antifungal properties.  The body uses thiamine to keep bacteria and yeasts from overgrowth in the digestive system.   Fluconazole use can cause thiamine deficiency.   Supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial as Benfotiamine promotes intestinal healing.   Thiamine and the other B vitamins tend to be low in Celiac due to malabsorption.  Talk to your doctor about supplementing vitamins and minerals.

      Nutrient deficiencies despite normal MARSH and strict gluten-free diet

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome @Natalia Revelo, your experience is profoundly difficult and, sadly, not entirely unique within the celiac community. It's the frustrating reality of "silent" or ongoing damage that isn't captured by the MARSH score alone, which only measures active villous atrophy. Your normal biopsy suggests your diet is preventing the classic autoimmune attack, but it doesn't mean your gut has fully healed or that other issues aren't at play. The inflammation from your newly discovered milk and egg allergies is a huge clue; this constant allergic response can create a low-grade inflammatory environment that severely hampers nutrient absorption, effectively creating a "leaky gut"...

      Have you had a DNA test to look for Celiac disease genes?  If she doesn't have any celiac specific genes, look for another explanation.  If she does have Celiac genes, assume they are turned on and active Celiac disease is progressing.  All first degree relatives (mother, father, siblings, children) should be genetically tested as well.   Sometimes blood tests are ambiguous or false negatives if one has anemia, diabetes or thiamine deficiency.  Certain medications like antihistamines and steroids can suppress the immune system and result in false negatives or ambiguous results on antibody tests.

      That was just the visual report, so need to wait for confirmation or otherwise from the results. They did take a biopsy from the upper end of the duodenum(D1). D2 looked unremarkable on the camera. Just wish we didn’t have to wait so long for the results as she’s naturally a very anxious person. But thanks so much for taking the time to answer me
