I don't see anything wrong with it. I went to your blog and I bookmarked it because the blog contains some good recipes. I think it's great that you are increasing celiac awareness. :)

1. Do not be abusive or otherwise out of line towards other board members. Show respect for each board member, no matter what you think of their views. This is not a place to quarrel.

2. Do not promote your own business, Web site or products--even if they offer free services. The proper place to post your Web site, business or other services is in your profile, not in your signature block or in posts.

3. Do not spam the boards (i.e., post the same thing in multiple topics or areas of the board to bring more attention to your post), or bump posts up to bring more attention to them (Wikipedia definition of "bumping": Someone wishing to keep a thread on this first page, or bring an old thread back to it will post a reply to it purely to do this).

4. No Trolling. Wikipedia definition of trolling: "In Internet terminology, a troll is often someone who comes into an established community such as an online discussion forum, and posts inflammatory, rude, repetitive or offensive messages designed intentionally to annoy or antagonize the existing members or disrupt the flow of discussion, including the personal attack of calling others trolls. Often, trolls assume multiple aliases, or sock puppets."

These are the board guidelines/rules and they can be found by visiting this link Open Original Shared Link or looking under Forum Guidelines/Rules at the top by Calendar.

Hope that helps to answer your question Tinkerbellswt.

I should have read them again too. When I first signed up I had my blog in my signature (which I also have on other forums I am a member of). I was asked at that time to remove, and move to my profile which I did.

And this time, I hesitated to post the links. And I guess I shouldn't have even told anyone. I was really just trying to show that being gluten free is/can be more mainstream. I truthfully don't want to win for myself...I wanted to win for the attention it would give celiac disease and awareness.

I completely understand and support the rules of this forum and sorry that I inadvertently breeched that. I will NOT being doing it again as it will be a third violation and I will be asked to leave, which I certainly do not want to do.

Thanks.

Again , sorry.

Well I also voted for you and bookmarked your website! I knew your intention was to bring awareness to celiac and thought that was great.

Are you allowed to let us know if you do win?

Wow.. I'm glad that you posted that link. I'm going to see if the other thread is still here so I can bookmark your blog. If it's deleted, I may be PMing you for the address.

No. It has been deleted. Rightly so, it was a violation of the rules (see posted above). Not intentional, of course. Scott does an amazing job of gather information, articles and links for this site for us with Celiac. It's the first place I found when I went gluten free and has been a GODSEND to me. I'd be sad without it. I know he is protecting us from those who would seek to do us harm.

Yes, I understand and agree that it's for the greater benefit of the community.

I went to your profile and saved your blog. I would like to know if you win or if your blog is ever up again. Please PM the info to me. ;) Thanks!

Any chance Scott could add a link to your blog (and the election) to Celiac.com? Seems to me you have quite a lot of info and wonderful recipes to offer!

Or would one of us be allowed to post it?

I imagine Scott would need some sort of compensation...I'm sure the advertisers we see around the site pay Scott to be able to be part of it. I just don't have the funds to pay for advertising.

I'm not sure how the rules apply if others were to post the link. I would imagine it would still be a violation...I don't know.

No, it would not be a violation for somebody else to post a link to your blog. What is not allowed is self-promotion. It doesn't matter if I agree or not, those are the rules we need to follow, as it's Scott's site and he has the right to enforce his rules.

I hope it's been noted that I totally agree with you. That is exactly why I posted an apology. Not just to everyone here, but also meant for Scott. This is an AWESOME site, forum, etc. LOTS of incredible information. I'd be totally lost without this site and the countless hours he puts in making it so.

      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.

      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...

      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 containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      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.

      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.
