Hey guys! I am thinking about a career in Nutrition focusing alot on newly diagnosed celiacs and others who would like to improve their nutrition habits. My local university offers a BA in kineseiology with a specialty category of excersize science/wellness management option. Would this be the route to go? I basically want to counsel people, with celiac and otherwise, and come up with diet and excersise programs to suit their situations. Specializing in Celiac because who better to help than a fellow Celiac? Any advise and what exactly is kinesiolgy? Im having a hard time with the definition and what exactly that means. Thanks.

The following link should give you a good idea what it is, the college is a really good one by the way if you are looking for a school

I would combine that with studies in nutrition.

A kinesiologist could be very helpful for those of us who have had neuro effects from gluten that affect movement. Becoming a RD or Nutritionist would also be a good choice. Good luck in your studies.

      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.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
