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...

      How long does it take to gain weight?

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
