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

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
