I have been on and off sick for several years now. Stomach pain, weakness and countless other issues. I start uses a gluten-free diet in the beging of last year and after been tested with blood work and an bioplsy. All of which were neg. Now again I'm very sick... stomach cramps that are crazy.. I lost 15 lbs. I restated the gluten-free diet two days ago better, but still have ABD cramping. I'm so sick of being SICK..... The doc's just keep saying there not sure maybe a virus,come on for a year!!!

Question what would be a good starting diet that is gluten-free. I'm going to find a Celiac Dr in my area in the meantime.

The best way to start the diet is to go with whole unprocessed foods as much as possible. Fresh meats, potatoes, rice, veggies, fruits etc. Do get a new toaster for gluten free breads and don't share butter, nut butters, condiments etc with gluten eaters. Do keep in mind that if you are going to have more testing for celiac you need to keep eating a regular gluten filled diet until the testing is done.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
