Safe might not be the right word.

I'm quitting now after smoking ~26 of the last 27 yrs.

Hi,

this is probably the item you are referring to.

Open Original Shared Link.

.

I make reference to this article in My Web Space as the trigger for my Celiac.

.

I nor this article advocates that anyone should smoke to avoid Celiac,

Cigarettes are full of additives and reading the list makes the mind 'boggle' !!

.

I know some of them off hand!

.

Nail Varnish Remover,

Rat Poison,

Rocket Fuel,

.

Read the whole list for yourself, then decide is this what you want to put into your body.

.

I know it can be had to quit! they say 'Nicotine is more addictive than Heroine'.

Yeah Safe was the wrong word to use LOL. I quit in 2004 and have taken a few drags here and there in the past couple of weeks. My stress level was through the roof and I grabbed someones cig and took a drag now I seem to be doing it a little more. I have more medically wrong with me. I go in for surgery next month my 3rd laporoscpy. My sister told me if thats the worst I do then she doesn't blame me.

I smoked for over 20 years before I was diagnoised, so I do not believe smoking protects you against celiac :ph34r:

I quit smoking 4 years ago in order to get "healthy" ... strangely enough it is about the same time that I think the celiac disease really kicked in (although was neither tested nor diagnosed until 1 year ago). Coincidence???? Not sure.

Needing to blame something, anything for the celiac disease, I chose to blame having quit smoking.

Well if smoking helps with stress, and stress can trigger celiac...

It seems so many of the things we do can sometimes be self-medicating...

I smoke the odd cigarette sometimes. Some days none. Somedays 1. Somedays 2. Rarely more than that. Been doing that for awhile. I"ll quit for months at a time if I'm going into some health kick or whatever.. but for whatever reason I have found them beneficial to me at times. Eventually I'd like to be in a place where I don't feel the need for them. I usually will roll my own with organic tobacco...

I think smoking is a scapegoat for all the health problems from bad diets/lifestyles in America. If you actually research it a bit you'd find that the problems America blames on smoking don't really exist in other countries like Greece for example...where the diet is different.

So yeah. Lets not ever exercise. Lets spend our time on freeways smoking car-exhaust for 2 hours a day. Lets sit in front of EMF computers under EMF floro lights all day. Throw on a very unhealth diet on top of that. Not to mention how people are spending less time with their families...the social stress of that...

and then lets blame it all on smoking!! The internet is what is exposing this fallacy now. There is some talk that since the 1930's tobacco companies started using artificial fertilizer on their tobacco...just like other farmers did on their crops. Problem is we smoke the tobacco crops. The native americans supposedly never had issues with tobacco until they started smoking commercial tobacco.

That may or may not matter...but thats why I smoke organic if i do...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

      The Happy Tart review

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my...

      You would think any business would see the wisdom of honoring a $50 gift certificate on the basis of customer satisfaction alone, apart from any questions about software glitches.

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
