I don't want to post that great sentence...because I think its better in the context of the article... you get down and its just WOW when you think what they are almost saying ... and it so agrees with the experiences of so many of the people here (not to mention those who say but I'm not celiac because the biopsy was negative etc.)

No tha't why I said almost but they seem to be implying that there is a connection and also state that is is possible for someone to be celiac and have ONLY Neurological symptoms which I find progressive.

Medical researchers also have taken a new look at celiac disease, or gluten sensitivity, and say it may be "at times an exclusively neurological disease. That's kind of exciting information," Perlmutter said.

A gluten-free diet may relieve digestive or dermatologic symptoms, but celiac disease, unchecked, leads to cognitive impairment.

"Celiac disease may atrophy the brain," he said.

I agree with the doctor in the article, in that this is very exciting news!

I believe this is so true. We know gluten causes inflammation and in more people then we think. When the neurotransmitters are firing up constantly it eventually leads to cell death. We are losing brain cells. MSG will do the same thing in people who have leaking brain barriers.

I didn't realize the brain atrophies. So the term pea brain is a valid term.
