Neurologist W/ At Least One Celiac Patient


mrsjen

Recommended Posts

Hello. I am new. I don't know if I have much to contribute but I do have the easiest gluten-free bread recipe ever and I have had a great experience with an oral surgeon in the Chicago area if anyone is looking for these things.

Foodiegirl I have seen a few nutritionists around here but can't recommend one in terms of expertise on gluten sensitivity or celiac disease (sorry)! Also I was never referred to a GI... skipped that part & did antibody test.

I am hoping to find a neurologist in the Chicago area who has seen MRI's of brains affected by gluten. Want to make sure all the tests my neurologist ordered are the right ones. I called U of I and I guess the Celiac Disease Center is mostly for kids and there is no neurologist who reports gluten as an interest.

Thank you!

Rush University Medical Center Adult Celiac Disease program. I haven't seen any of the recommended doctors yet. This program helps to coordinate care for people with Celiac Disease and Gluten Sensitivity as well. They help you get referred to all the right specialists. Maybe someone would like to know about this.

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.

      Thank you! This is very helpful. Quick followup: what is your recommendation re: gluten-free prepared foods (labeled gluten-free or certified gluten-free) during this time of being more strict about eating gluten-free? Is it necessary to eat only whole foods prepared at home, or is it safe to include prepared / packaged foods in her diet (I'm thinking particularly of snack foods)?

      Is blending same as cold press? Is there any juice recipe you tried that you feel helped like the ginger turmeric? Is there a brand turmeric powder you used etc? I used Aloe vera years ago but the taste is hard to get down. What are your go to juices you made?
