Calling All Experts - Need The Best Articles

Hey everybody,

First of all, I miss you guys! :(

Second.........I need information to send to a nurse/naturopath in New England who publishes a monthly newsletter which goes out to TONS of people, and she's consulting ME for her upcoming gluten publication. The problem is, I know I've gleaned so much info these past few years on this site, but haven't bookmarked all articles, and I need to send her the best, most concise articles and references on certain topics. These are things I'm looking for, and I don't have much time to research, hence my S.O.S:

~ I read somewhere along the way that wheat has been genetically altered for mass-production to contain about twice as much gluten as original grains, making it a very hard-to-digest polypeptide chain......but I don't know where I got this. :huh:

~ need good articles on gluten as it pertains to inflammation......I can't really explain why my joint pain left after going gluten-free, though it did - don't know technically why.

~ same with peripheral neuropathy - mine went away, but I can't remember the scientific reason why......

~ I remember reading many times that Celiac is most prevalent in populations in which grains were introduced much later and in areas farthest from the seat of agriculture. Did this come from one of Michael Pollan's books, or do we have articles?

~ anything concrete and cited (I have a few articles on this subject) in the arena of gluten and mental health issues, shizophrenia, bipolar depression, etc. Four years ago I attended the Celiac conference at Stanford, and asked Dr. Peter Greene in person about the link between gluten and depression.......his reply was something along the lines of "we don't really know..." I'm hoping that since then, new articles have been published?

I'm sure I"ll think of more things, but that's a start!

Thanks, all :)

I have a random collection of scientific articles about gluten&celiac. I could send it to you by email if you are interested. Also, Wikipedia has some very good articles covering the topic of gluten&wheat sensitivities.

Thanks Jess! Alas, I could only open the first article........am I doing something wrong on that other site? There are no articles there..........just a box and a "display" setting, and I can't open anything. I am quite sure this is an *operator error* problem.

Help? :unsure:

Pac, I would love specific articles, I"ll send you my email.

Going to search this site........there's SO much good stuff here....will take time!

hmmmm.... I can't open them from home. I'll check it out when I get back to work. May have something to do with the university connection.

Well, today I was able to open all of them as well. :huh:

THANKS JESS! Good stuff to get us started :)

Very dismayed, though, to see the one study making no link between gluten and shizophrenia.....I think I've read about that connection so many times.....and was hopeful - and thinking - it could help people who suffer same to remove gluten.....hard for me to accept that one .

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
