Hi all,

I am new to the forum as of today. I just found and watched this video from UCSD WM K Warren Medical Research Center for celiac Disease on yoututbe. It is long, 86 minutes. There are 3 doctors presenting information about celiac disease, nutrition, and testing./ detection for it.

They discuss a new law about labeling that is coming in play in 2008 kind of near the end. Anyway, I hope this doesn't violate any rules on the forum.

Hi Jenny and Amanda,

Sure thing, sharing is not so bad. I didn't know if there was already a listing of such links on the forum.

Here is another one to the University of Maryland celiac center.

This link below is to the same site but links to their page with video discussions of celiac disease.

So much easier to watch a video than read all that stuff...

I am glad I found this forum, seems like a good group of people here!

My dad caught the UCSD program on TV, and it somehow convinced him that cc is real :huh: . So, it must be good! Send it to all your friends and relatives! :lol:

Thank You (& welcome to the forum). I've watched about 15 minutes so far. I'm so glad I saw this.

I watched the entire presentation and found two things interesting:

1. The only blood test they recommended or felt necessary was the ttg

2. When they answered an audience member's question regarding lactose intolerance, there was no mention made of the fact that the damaged tips of the villi are what digest the lactose. They just kind of left it up in the air as to why this was true, IMHO.

Anyone else notice this? :huh:

I watched the whole thing....it was good, and would be very interesting for someone who is new to this and who hasn't done a lot of reading yet.

For myself, having done a ton of reading the last 2 years, I didn't hear anything new in it. Just the basic info for the uninitiated. There were a lot of spots where more elaboration was needed. I have lots of unanswered questions that NEVER get brought up anywhere.

By the way,I went to their website (USSD) and noticed their comment saying they don't feel the stool testing (i.e. like Enterolab does) has any validity in testing as it is still unproved. I don't find that an enlightened comment, because there are numerous other specialists and centers in this country who have an interest in the stool testing. There are several books that are very positive about its possibilities.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
