I have purchased in 2004 and 2005 and did not get it after that.

Most of the products in the book are products not found in my part of country (NJ)

and stores like WalMart in my area do not have a full grocery dept. so many of those products

are not in my area.

Most of the stores the book states as sources for gluten-free food aren't in my area either. It just wasn't worthwhile for us; maybe it is for someone in another part of the country.

I'd get Clan Thompson or Gluten Guard but I am afraid that this will be the same case.

I think that is an awesome product for people who are starting out newly on the diet. It gives them a great idea as to what they can look for in the stores. When I was first diagnosed I got the CSA book and I think it gave me "hope". It showed me there were still foods to eat. I would highly recommend it to a newbie for a guide. If you have been on the diet a while, it probably wouldn't be as useful.

I also bought the 2005 edition when I was first diagnosed. At the time, I knew next to nothing about the gluten-free diet, and had not found this board yet.

It was helpful to me at first, but like Deb, I live in NJ and a lot of the stores and products listed in it were not available to me.

I almost never refer to it anymore--I either ask on here, or call manufacturers myself. :)

I use it and am a member of the organization. I've found it really helpful, along with their quarterly newsletter (good recipes in it).

      Abnormal Labs, Should I Be Concerned?

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Rejoicephd, I found the Autoimmune Protocol diet (Dr. Sarah Ballantyne) extremely helpful in getting my health back.  The AIP diet is very strict, removing any possibly irritating foods and allowing time for the digestive tract to heal, then other foods are added back in with less risk of reaction.   Keep us posted on your progress!
