Interesting article...thanks for sharing. I had intestinal candida for a while until we finally got me on something to clear it up. I wonder if that also contributed to me getting celiac disease.

interesting. My celiac def. flared up rather intensely after a severe systemic candida infection after my C-section incision got infected and I was injected with massive doses of antibiotics (which ALWAYS trigger yeast infections in me).

I took the article to my doctor (general practitioner) and she really appreciated it. It's a good resource because it actually documents medical journals. I *still* have a candida infection and am wondering if the gluten free diet is really doing that much good while I have it :huh: I mean... I do feel better, but if your body recognizes candida (with an identical protein sequence) as wheat - then wouldn't it seem that your body thinks it has gluten in it all the time?

I've had this infection for over a year (recurrent) and I seriously think it is correlated to my increase in health problems - with celiac, allergies, and everything else.

I'm more that a little bit disturbed by this! I need to get copies of the actual journals to take to my gastro & ask him it.

Hi Bean,

i do believe your on the right path with mercola, holland and kaufmann. Personnaly, i am ont the mercola no grain diet and doug kaufmann's diet also for 6 month. I can't say i am completely healed but i have gain weight (muscles) that i had lost when fallen sick 2 years ago. i can say that i have experienced more improvement in 6 month than in 1 year and a half on gluten free diet alone.

After 1 year on gluten free diet, i started to have allergies i did'nt had before (in other words, my case was worsening). i have bought methabolic typing diet by wolcott and fahey and in this book, there is a test to see what is your methabolic type (protein type, carb type, or the mixed type). It turned out for me that i was a protein type. that explain why i do improve on the mercola no grain diet and the diet of doug kaufmann. Now , i am testing the theory of wolcott and fahey about oxalic acid and calcium absorbtion, and my body seem to respond verry well to that theory also.

i mean, i have always did sport and one of the most frustrating thing whit celiac disease for me was i didn't had the same performances as before. but now that performances problem seems to be story of the past. so if you want to try something, i do believe this is something to give a try.

A great website for yeast infections is candidafree.com. They state that their product out of Japan cures candida in 100% of the cases. It is not an overnight thing - takes up to six months. The testimonial section is quite impressive. I am taking their product, ThreeLac and am seeing so steady results - I have gluten-free for nine weeks and on ThreeLac for about four weeks. Some of the more outstanding symptoms of candida are abating. Hope this helps. Thanks so much for the article. I think that ruling out celiac/candida in chronic illnesses of any sort makes so much difference. I am a therapist and am seeing a lot of positive changes in my clients who are bi-polar and are willing to go gj.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      Welcome to the forum, @The Logician! Many antibiotics have anti-inflammatory properties. By the way, GMO wheat is not used in food products: https://www.chefsresource.com/faq/is-wheat-genetically-modified-in-the-united-states/ There is a common misconception that it is.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      I do not have celiac disease however for 20 years-plus I have been sensitive to gluten. A slice of bread will give me diarrhea in less than an hour. This started with me around the time I believe GMO wheat was beginning to appear in products on the market. Last week i went into the hospital to get antibiotic IV for three days. While there I was constipated...

      Hi, I have worked in education in the past. Based on where assigned and building crowding I made adjustments when needed.  I understand completely what you mentioned. I brought food from home in my own Pyrex glass container.  I kept it in my own lunch tote that I kept with me during the day. In the teacher's lounge/staff lunch room I would wipe down the area I sat at with soap and water with disposable paper towel.  I also placed down a fabric placemat prior to unpacking my meal. Unfortunately, one district I could never use the microwaves as they were filled with splatters and crumbs. (To be honest at that one school even if I didn't have this condition, I would not have used those microwaves based on their state of cleanliness). There were mini lockers nearby that I kept my placemat in. I brought my placemat  home weekly to launder.  There were times if the staff had a celebration with cake or pizza I would eat outside or in my car . As the  eating tables also had to display the  party spread. So the pizza and cake was on the communal lunch tables. Those days I just diverted to outside on the grass or my car. When I was fortunate to have a consistent schedule many staff "knew" my spot, and it was usually empty when I arrived. Occasionally, it was taken and it normally was by a substitute who didn't know about me/my situation.  I hope you are able to navigate this new change of building/assignment. I do know these days many districts have crowding and teachers often share classrooms or the same desk. This was often my experience whether in teacher or support staff role. Some districts you don't even have your own desk or space. I hope you do have some space to retreat to when possible. There often times is that awkwardness of a new schedule assignment where they ask why you don't want cake, pizza ,or always bring your lunch etc. For me that happened in every job education or business sector as often times I was the only one with this condition.  I hope this may have offered some support to lessen your anxiety about the new school year  assignment change. Best wishes

      People get genetic modification confused with hybridization. Wheat, as has most of our food crops, has been altered through hybridization to make it more disease resistant, more drought resistant and even to increase the gluten content. Hybridization uses selective breeding/cross pollination to enhance certain characteristics. Genetic modification, on the other hand, uses a "gene gun" to knock out certain genes and replace them with unnatural ones. In some cases, plant genes are replaced with animal genes to achieve certain properties. This is what GMO is about. Have you actually been formerly tested for celiac disease, either by blood antibody testing, biopsy or both, to rule out celiac disease?

      Thank you for your response. I have had several different antibiotics over the years and none affected my sensitivity to wheat products which I assumed was due to the gluten in them. However I do believe this time it was an antibiotic I’ve never had before so if your explanation is correct it would seem this antibiotic (cefuroxime 500 MG tablet Commonly known as: CEFTIN, 1 tablet by mouth 2 (Two) Times a Day for 10 days.)  could be a cure for my sort of sensitivity. I assume the hospital IV was the same antibiotic. The IV was ordered because my blood culture showed bacteria in my blood. I remember hearing years ago the gmo wheat was found in some products but I guess that was a misnomer. Believe me after over 20 years of putting up with this sensitivity, despite the fact that growing up eating subs, pizza and spaghetti regularly never affected me, I am so relieved to no longer have to avoid wheat.. I hope!

      I do not have celiac disease however for 20 years-plus I have been sensitive to gluten. A slice of bread will give me diarrhea in less than an hour. This started with me around the time I believe GMO wheat was beginning to appear in products on the market. Last week i went into the hospital to get antibiotic IV for three days. While there I was constipated so I figured eating gluten would fix that. I had gluten at every meal and it had no affect on me. I was still constipated until I got home and hen started having normal bowel movements even though I continued eating gluten products and I have never felt better! Not even a hint of diarrhea. I’ve eaten some gluten in bread, cream of wheat, pizza every day now for 7 days and still no reaction. I have read that antibiotics may cause gluten sensitivity but not the opposite.  I’m wondering if my gluten sensitivity was not to gluten but a sensitivity to how gluten reacted to a bacteria (good or bad) in my gut. A bacteria which has been removed by the antibiotics I am taking. I stopped antibiotics today. My doctor had no clue why this occurred and wasn’t interested in finding out so I’d like to know if this information could be helpful to anyone studying gluten sensitivity.
