I find I cannot eat certain brands of gluten free foods. Just because it says gluten free doens't mean I can eat it. :(

Was terribly sick this week after my grandmother bought me some gluten free cookies. I stayed away from them for 2 days... then ate them again, the same thing happened. so i now know to avoid that brand.

Is anyone else like that? or is it just me?

Maybe you have other allergies. Maybe you system is not ready for the cookies. When first going gluten free it is good to stick to basic things as your system starts to rebuild itself.

Dear ginap73,

I agree with blueeyedmanda. You probably do have other allergies. Have you done the Enterolab testing? Their panel tests for soy, casein, and egg intolerances as well as gluten. They also do the DNA testing to see if you have the Celiac gene or the gluten intolerance gene. It is a stool test where they use it to test for antibodies to these things. The entire panel is $380. You could also do a rotation diet. I have an overgrowth of yeast, and it can make much of the food I eat not set well. If you have been on a lot of antibiotics, birth control, and/or steroids, it is a good possibility.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

This enterolab test.. is that through a GI or is it one of those internet order tests? I'm a little weary of those.

May I ask how they diagnosed you with the yeast overgrowth? I'd like to get tested for that as well?

Dear justme,

It is ordered over the internet. However, many people on here have had it done. They said it is very accurate. I had blood tests and upper and lower GIs done. I do not think the team of doctors knew what to look for with Celiac. Many do not. Some GIs are misinformed to the point it is dangerous. One man on here was told he outgrew Celiac and could go back to a regular diet. You never outgrow Celiac. It is a disease you will have your entire life. The diet is the only way to repair damage and prevent further damage. Now, this man has blunted villi!

Dear UNCHeel,

Most regular MDs refuse to accept Candida as an illness or cause of it. That is why I began seeing a holistic physician last year. There are some other kinds of doctors who do diagnose it. Sikh chiropractors and naturopaths are a good bet, too. Seeing one of these will normally help you get a diagnosis. I also filled out a questionaire.

It does not always manifest with just a regular yeast infection. Symptoms tend to cause gastrointestinal distress as well. Certain symptoms that are typical include a white coating on the tongue, lower abdominal bloating, hormonal problems such as irregular menses, or abnormalities concerning it, headaches, Fibromyalgia, craving sugar, yeasty foods, or alcohol, balance issues, ringing in the ears, and so many more problems. It can cause over 100 different symptoms alone! I found the pathology so fascinating, I wrote a research paper on it. I also discovered I am probably a walking fungus! :( I would be more than happy to send you a copy if you provide your e-mail.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms. My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea. But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you...

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Hello, I was newly diagnosed in January of this year (2025). Since then I have been strict about staying gluten free and only cooking at home. I started feeling better in July while gradually resuming close to my normal routine of activities and athletics. September and October were extremely stressful due to a new home build being finished and moving...

      Study Estimates the Costs of Delayed Celiac Disease Diagnosis (+Video)

      Your story is a testament to the critical importance of an early and accurate diagnosis. It's tough to read about what you had to endure, including multiple surgeries and hospitalizations, all while the root cause—celiac disease—remained undetected for so long. Your experience highlights the consequences of medical ignorance surrounding this condition and...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is why Daura Damm can be a sponsor here--at 3ppm or less it is gluten-free, and it's doubtful that anyone with celiac disease would ever have issues with such levels. Some people may be reacting to the yeast in the beer, but I seriously doubt that such beers could trigger elevated antibodies or villi damage--the science says such levels won't trigger...

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms.  My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea.  But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you could share what other symptoms you are having?

      Hello, I was newly diagnosed in January of this year (2025).  Since then I have been strict about staying gluten free and only cooking at home.  I started feeling better in July while gradually resuming close to my normal routine of activities and athletics. September and October were extremely stressful due to a new home build being finished and moving.  My spouse and I take care of his mom who has advanced dementia and have been since 2021.  We did all the moving as well as get the other house on the market for the month of October.  Since earlier this month I feel like I did back in the early stages of my diagnosis.  Almost all of my symptoms have come back except for the bad abdominal issues.  I haven’t changed my diet or supplements since January and wonder if the stress has caused a set back? Any thoughts are helpful.  Thanks

      I have to express some significant skepticism about the drclark cleansing programs you've mentioned. The claim that a specific, three-part parasite and organ cleanse is a universal solution for chronic health issues is a major red flag, as it oversimplifies the immense complexity of the human body and conditions like Celiac disease, which is an autoimmune disorder, not a parasite infection. Regarding your Celiac disease, the reaction you describe, while real to you, does not necessarily confirm a diagnosis; a delayed reaction is common with various digestive issues, and a definitive diagnosis typically requires specific blood tests and an intestinal biopsy, not just a provider's acceptance of symptoms. Furthermore, your mention of approaching mayors seems to misunderstand the role of local government versus federal policy; the deduction for gluten-free food is a federal tax law, and a mayor has no jurisdiction to implement widespread Celiac screening, which is a medical and public health decision far beyond a municipal leader's purview. It sounds like you are navigating a difficult health journey, but I would strongly advise consulting with qualified medical specialists and registered dietitians over relying on unverified online cleansing programs.
