My Diet

Thanks for welcoming me to the forum :) My diet right now is whatever I can see haha sad but true. I eat a lot of Noodles & Company (not with rice noodles, i mean the 100% NOT gluten free noodles). I also work at a nursing home and we eat the same food the residents do, which is obviously not gluten free either. It's hard to not be lazy and actually make myself a dinner before I go to work because I'm so busy with work and school. But hey, my health should be first on the priority list right? AH!

For once in your life make yourself your first priority. Make your food on your day off and prepackage it so you can grab it and go the rest of the week. No more noodles. You get rice noodles and cook them yourself. What good is school and work if your health is bad? None of that can pay off if you are not healthy. Keep posting here what you are eating and we will try to help as much as we can. You need to committ to eating within the gluten-free diet and becoming the gluten-free Goddess I know you are!!

there are so many things you can buy at health stores or order online. frozen dinners, "granola" bars. you can eat on the go or whatever. but do you realize how serious celiac disease is? your lower intestine gets damaged. there is no guarantee that it will heal fully when you "feel" like changing your diet. Eat healthy and ask questions on here. i have only been on this site two days and i have already learned a lot! take the time, because your health is important!

Use one of your free days and pre-cook your meals and put them in containters that way you can grab it and go..:)

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
