Now that everyone likes it, we can start complaining that Scott's avatar is still blue. ;):lol:

Reload the page, Carla. Scott has a new avatar. Once you see it, you will be glad it is NOT green. LOL.

The olive green is much better! Thanks, Scott!

My only other suggestion would be to make the print larger and darker for the many here who have vision problems. Even those of us without vision problems would appreciate it!

Thanks again.

Definitely getting eye strain with the new colors. On the bright side, this will keep me off this site at work. :P

Thanks, Scott!

One problem for me is when I do a search, the box with the page number I'm looking at is only a very slightly darker shade of white than the rest that I can't tell what page I'm on so when I try to go to the next page I don't know which one to click. I'm sure we're all jumping at you with all these sugestions before you have a fair chance to get it all done. Thanks.

Yeah, I find myself about two inches from the screen because the font is so small and light, and I'm only 23, it's not like I need reading glasses. I'm sure I'll get used to the other stuff, and the darker greenis much more pleasant, but the small font is giving me a headache.

Each of you can adjust your own font size in your browser--

1) In IE click on the "Page" drop down, then select "Text Size." You can also zoom in and out to make everything larger.

2) In Firefox click the "View" drop down, the select "Text Size."

Each browser allow you to adjust these.

I hope this helps...

Take care,

Scott

Hmm I can't verify this, as I surf w/ a Sidekick, but doesn't this then make every other site's font too big?

I haven't heard of a 'Save Settings by Domain' feature in a browser.

I went to view - text size and the list of Gluten Free Items (on the left margin) got bigger, but the post page is the same. My e-mail is also larger as I changed the setting. Post pages remain the same.

Me too.

Scott, is there a reason the default font size is now size 1? (For those following along, previously it was 2.)

Also the link to the board rules/guidelines is missing. I know that we can always use a refresher reading those so I hope that it is put back into place so folks don't forget the manner in which we should behave here at glutenfreeforum.com .

Since the change, I have noticed a difference in the way hyperlinks work. When I post a hyperlink, not only is it not blue (this was also true before the upgrade), it is not underlined. The underline will only show when I mouse over the text where I put the link. So now I have to hilight the text, make it underlined, and make it blue. Not a huge deal, but I like to use a lot of links in my posts :huh: If I don't specifically say "this is a link" people might not know one was there.

Is this by design, or an I doing something wrong?

Other than that, I like the new look. I am already used to it.

Thanks Scott,

I'm beginning to appreciate the changes already. Green is my favorite color. :)

The first shade of green was way too bright for my eyes...the new shade is much better!

Thanks for increasing the font size as well. :)

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
