I Know Someone Just Brought This Up!

I have had only safe foods today...grits for breakfast, and nothing but chicken and brown rice the rest of the day. The ONLY difference was that I bought a grinder at the store today, McCormick's, a Garlic Sea Salt Grinder. It is soooooooooo good, but tonight I've been in the bathroom quite a bit and my belly really hurts.

Ingredients: Garlic, sea salt, hydrogenated canola and hydrogenated palm oil, and parsley.

I was using a garlic spice blend a few days ago when I was having issues and only eating rice.

I know I'm not allergic...well, I had NO reactions at all to the 91 things they poked my back for this morning. I don't know if garlic was one of them, but this really makes me wonder! I don't know whether to think it's a CC or not. I thought McCormick's was pretty safe, so maybe a damaged small intestine just doesn't like garlic? Or maybe parsley? I think that was in the other one too.

You know, if I REALLY wanted to be a detective, I'd be a CSI, not a Gluten detective! :P

It could be the hydrogenated canola and palm oil. Not because of gluten, just because it's really no good for you and your intestine is rejecting it. Just a thought.

It's gluten-free. McCormick will clearly list any gluten.

My mom gets that reaction from garlic and onions. She has for years, it's completely unrelated to gluten. That could be a factor.

      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.

      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.
