A coworker of mine has a daughter with diabetes and was recently diagnosed with gluten sensitivity. Hwe endo doc told her to not eat whole grain foods. To read the label and if wheat was the first few ingredients to not eat it. So she can have processed white bread but not whole wheat bread. She says her daughetr feels better since changing this in her diet.

Have any of you heard of anything like this for a true gluten sensitivity?

I have read that white bread has less gluten than whole wheat bread. But going gluten light is not safe for celiacs.

      Confused about my results

      By trents · Posted

      @AllyJR, older studies placed the likelihood of the first degree relatives of those with celiac disease also developing celiac disease at about 10%. Two more recent and large sample studies place it at almost 50%. There are likely multiple epigenetic factors involved in the development of active celiac disease, one of which may be the consumption of modern cultivars of wheat which, through genetic manipulation, contain multiple times the gluten content of ancient wheat. You will have to decide whether or not it is prudent and necessary to require your children who have not yet developed active celiac disease (and who may not ever develop it) to eat gluten free. There certainly will be a social cost for them if you do. If you do decide to go that direction, it would certainly make it easier for you to be consistent in avoiding gluten in the home and so, to keep yourself safe.

      Help figuring out stomach pain

      Her poop is totally normal since going gluten free. Once or twice per day.  She eats a lot of fruits and veggies. No juice. She said the squeezing is in the spot where her food goes in her belly. Definitely not dehydrated. She drinks tons of water.

      Hurrah for an official diagnosis!   You may want to put the whole family on gluten free, as a preventative measure for the ones not testing positive right now.  Remember, exposure to gluten triggers the Celiac genes your kids have inherited from you.  Keeping them gluten free now, even though they don't test positive right now, can delay triggering Celiac Disease development in them.

      Dealing with celiac and menstrual cycle

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @annirosex, Get your Vitamin D level checked.  Low Vitamin D can mess up menstrual cycles.  Vitamin D at healthy levels (80-100) acts as a hormone and regulates your immune system.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is needed to activate Vitamin D, so adding thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial.
