Celiac And Candida

I have read that Celiac and Candida go hand and hand. If you have one you are more likely to have the other. I dont know if this is true. I would like opinions on this please.

I suspect that eating gluten when your body is producing an immune response to it, just makes your body more susceptible to an invader like Candida. I am just reading a book about Candida right now and am contemplating doing the Candida diet for a couple months as I am sure I have that too. Fascinating stuff.

a bit busy this week; not much time to post...

but, always enough time to get a link out there, especially for scams/quacks/pseudoscience.

The American Academy of Allergists and other reputable medical organizations have pointed out, candida can cause an occasional infection or allergy. But no one has shown it causes depression, mood swings or headaches. Further, no one has shown that any diet (inc. yeast- and sugar-free diets) relieve these symptoms.

save your money.

Are these the same "reputable medical establishments" that have been telling me there's nothing wrong with me when there obviously is? If so, then I think I'd rather keep reading and making up my own mind! Reading about candida doesn't require me to spend money, thankfully, but seeing multiple doctors and undergoing multiple tests does. I'm still seeking the truth.

So far I self diagnose myself as being celiac, and also yeast intolerance. I notice now since I've been staying away from yeast my tongue has been clearing up from some sort of candida. Though I also try to lower my intake of monosodium glutamate.... and do somewhat suspect of nut or diary intolerance. Though as of now I will just try my best to stay away from gluten and yeast... Right now I'm trying to get my thyroid check, as I also think there is a health problem.... along with being malnutrition.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
