I am pretty new here, so this may have already been linked at some point. I found this article during a search for other information.

That is an excellent article - they bring up many important points that have not been known, or properly addressed. Besides the higher mortality rates in people who are diagnosed with celiac as children, it explains a great deal about how gluten affects the brain, and subsequently behavior. I could relate to much of it and I'm sure that many other people with Celiac or gluten sensitivity can as well.

Maybe it should be listed in Publications and Publicity section, or wherever it will get more readership and responses.

This is really interesting. This bit jumped out at me:

Just as poor adherence is linked with psychiatric pathology, so too is good adherence

I think that the issue of children having problems coping with the diet is a very individual thing. While some may be bothered some may not. . . . I have always told him that differences can be a good thing.

I totally agree with you.

I totally agree with you.

Now if I were talking about my four year old I don't think it would be as easy. He is the pasta/bread boy and very bull headed. :lol:

This article was obviously written either by someone who has never had to live gluten-free, or by someone who didn't know how to do it well.

Remember what you said about making assumptions? :lol:

To the matter, I think the authors point out that no conclusions can be made - they are just throwing theories around. But it does seem to me that it can be hard for kiddies in some instances, and I can understand that the teen years might be particularly difficult.

I think this is best looked at as food for thought. Not every one is a great cook!

I thought the main point of the article... about kids with celiac (or any chronic disorder) being more prone to risk-taking behavior as teenagers... was also very interesting. To me, that makes sense. Kids who are really sheltered can get restless and rebellious. But... I think there are ways to give them other options and freedoms.

For example, my dad would take me to the library and literally let me check out anything I wanted. He would glance over the books when I brought them home (sometimes even read them), but he made a point of not questioning my choices. In 8th grade I went to a sleep-away science camp for three weeks (with very little adult supervision!). The summer before I graduated from high school I went to Germany for five weeks as an exchange student. A lot of people asked my parents if they were nervous that something bad could happen while I was so far away. Their response was, "Not really... Europe is pretty safe and our daughter has a good head on her shoulders."

In little ways, my parents inspired me with a lot of confidence. I know you really have to keep a close eye on small children with celiac disease (especially when they're still at the stage of putting everything in their mouth)... but I think it's good to be conscious about letting kids take responsibility as they get older. Let them make a few mistakes when you can still help them recover from the negative consequences! I know I'm going to keep this in mind with my son, who has multiple problems with food intolerance.

      @N00dnutt, been there, done that! Cheers!

      @trents You're right, thanks for pointing that out. On @somethinglikeolivia comment regarding potential ingesting or cross contamination; there is a product marketed in Australia as "GluteGuard" which is designed for just this scenario. It is not a defence for and is not recommended for use by full-blown celiac disease but, it helps those with GI. I'll be reading slower in future so I don't skim over the subject matter. Cheers.

      @Knitty_Kitty Noted with appreciation.

      @N00dnutt, as OP explained earlier, she had a gastroscopy done earlier while she had been eating plenty of gluten for months. It was negative despite strong positive antibody scores.
    • N00dnutt
      The best way to determine positively is to undergo a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinologist will assess the condition of your "Villi". These tenticles are what extract the nutrient from what we ingest. The Protein in Gluten is like acid to these tenticles.
