Suggestions For Searches And 'stickys'

I have a suggestion for your search function above. It is very hard to plow through the oodles of information, especially ingredients in products which change from month to month. Over on Chowhound.com they also had this problem; you'd search for a restaurant and it would give you posts from 8 years ago first. When I search this forum sometimes the first result is something from 2004 which is obviously out of date (product ingredients changed, restaurant closed, etc.). Chowhound changed their search so you can list the results by date, see post here.

It would be sooo nice to sort by date so I don't get info from before the change in the FDA labelling laws.

I have one more suggestion, mostly for the ingredients/products boards and the newly diagnosed boards. Too often the 'newbies' post the same thing over and over, 'can I eat maltodextrin?', 'my son/daughter was just diagnosed, where do I go for help?'. etc. Can some forums have 'stickies' with a FAQ? The mods could keep them up to date and then the boards wouldn't be full of the same questions over and over.

That being said, i LOVE your board and the hard work you guys do. I often visit here for info on food for my son. Thanks a million!!

While we're on topic, it always seems bothersome & avoidable to have so many results' urls as the "lofiversion", despite my not using the "lofiversion".

The search via Google on the top-left was put here by popular demand.

Take care,

Oh yeah. I remember the hue and cry (sp?) when that disappeared.

hmm, note to self - learn to use other features on this forum.

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      By Seaperky · Posted

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
