Thinks she's gluten intolerant also.

My daughters are starting to pay more attention. They are starting to understand why dad steers

clear of the Chinese Food, the Subway Sandwiches and cake. My nearly 18 year old daughter is

showing clear symptoms after a glutenated weekend. My daughter is hard of hearing, and knows sign well. We were at a birthday party this weekend and she was clearly signing what she thought was going to happen (to her) if she ate that big piece of cake....:)

Wife and oldest daughter remain uninterested in the gluten free lifestyle ;)

I am really hoping that explosive D in ASL is something along the lines of spelling out wheat and doing the tummy rub sign.

:)

Glad your daughter's catching onto ya!

Good for your daughter! My 15 yo discovered the same thing and is very dedicated to the diet now. So much better to avoid problems than to try to fix them when you're older.

Dear JerryK,

I am not surprised! These things are genetic! It is good she is learning now. The later you find out, the more problems can be caused. That girl is smart!

It's actually more like making a fist with one hand. Your palm goes flat against the bottom of the fist....

and then you make a motion, indicative of a "valve opening". It's quite descriptive for those in the know :lol:

For greater emphasis, you can hold the "valve" open multiple times and with more vigor!

Your daughter is a very smart and sensible girl to be able and willing to take responsibility for her own health.

HAHAHAHAHA!!! You know, I think I had a deaf guest make that sign at me at work once. I worked in a hotel. I'm pretty sure it was in reference to one of my coworkers... heh heh heh....

On another note, has anyone noticed how RECENT of a disease this is? I honestly think it's only really been around for about 150 years. Funny how it came along with the advent of commercial processed flours and sugars..... Perhaps theres been some genetic breakdown? I think the Weston A Price foundation has it nailed. Start eating food from 500 years ago and your body will thank you. It's quite a hard process, I'm not even there myself yet purely because of the VOLUME of food I require (I'm one those disgusting skinny people that HAS to eat all the time). But I give this whole caveman diet thing a lot of credit.

No, no. It's been around since antiquity.

A Brief History of the Disease

As far back as 250 A.D., Aretaeus of Cappadocia included detailed descriptions of an unnamed disease in his writings. When describing his patients he referred to them as "koiliakos," which meant "suffering in the bowels." Francis Adams translated these observations from Greek to English for the Sydenham Society of England in 1856. He thus gave sufferers the moniker "celiacs."

I'd say go back to eating food from 10,000 years ago, pre-neolithic times. :) The ancient egyptians were about the first to start suffering from modern diseases that we currently have and they ate a lot of grain.

Wheat is pretty new to the human diet and is becoming a larger and larger component of it.

Dear Julie-uk-nz,

Thanks for the link!

Dear Nancym,

Hey, I read about that too! Heart disease did not exist, nor did obesity until people began cultivating grain! I read about it in "ZonePerfect Meals in Minutes" by Dr. Barry Sears. I found that fascinating! Thanks for the info! That just proves Celiacs have been around for a very long time. I am with Dr. Sears, I do not think we were ever supposed to have eaten grain at all.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
