Race For Celiac

Does anyone know what it would take to promote a run/walk, or bike ride?

I live in Denver, Co. and would love to get something started.

You could email Danna Korn. She promotes and runs the R.O.C.K. (raising our celiac kids) walks. We've done them four years in a row now and I think she's really worked out the kinks. Our last one in May was great. Go to the ROCK web site and email her from there. Good luck!

Thank you! I'll keep you posted.

I realize this is a really old post. But I would love to help out and run the race. Please let me know if you are still interested in making this happen.

I realize too that this is based on an old post, but I love to run! Are there groups that run across the US in support of Celiac disease? If so count me in! :)

Did anything ever come of this? I haven't heard of any kind of event that brings awareness to and supports celiac/gluten intolerance on a national level.

It would be neat as a community if we could get something like this going, like a 5k run/walk one day a year.

There is an organization called Open Original Shared Link I am thinking about joining once I have a little more distance to my runs.

I'd love to help organize a specific 5k for Celiac in the Denver area. Maybe May or October would be good months to have it because those are the two known Celiac awareness months I know of.

Any other thoughts/suggestions?

      @Ginger38,  Are you taking a B Complex vitamin?  Vitamin D?  Thiamine in the form TTFD or Benfotiamine? I think increasing my B Complex vitamins and taking additional Thiamine and Vitamin C and zinc helps along with the Lysine.

      There's simple dietary changes that can be done to improve Barrett's esophagus.  There are vitamins that improve Barrett's esophagus --- most of the B vitamins! Reducing sugary foods and drinks will help.  A diet high in simple carbohydrates can deplete Thiamine and other B vitamins needed to process them into energy. Eating green leafy vegetables helps.  Green leafy vegetables are high in Folate and Riboflavin.       Dietary sugar and Barrett’s esophagus https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5725502/#:~:text=The major finding of the,and sugar consumption [13].     Dietary intake of vegetables, folate, and antioxidants and the risk of Barrett's esophagus https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23420329/    Intakes of dietary folate and other B vitamins are associated with risks of esophageal adenocarcinoma, Barrett's esophagus, and reflux esophagitis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24132576/    Associations between dietary folate intake and risks of esophageal, gastric and pancreatic cancers: an overall and dose-response meta-analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5689728/     Dietary vitamin B intake and the risk of esophageal cancer: a meta-analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6225909/#:~:text=A statistically significant%2C inverse association,an increased risk of EC.    Intake of Dietary One-Carbon Metabolism-Related B Vitamins and the Risk of Esophageal Cancer: A Dose-Response Meta-Analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6073467/    Dietary riboflavin deficiency induces ariboflavinosis and esophageal epithelial atrophy in association with modification of gut microbiota in rats https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32458157/    Association of Vitamin D and Parathyroid Hormone With Barrett's Esophagus (parathyroid needs Pyridoxine B6) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30180151/   "let food be your medicine, let medicine be your food.

      Thanks for your reply I’m a nearly 69yr old female. My only medications are Fosamax and Lamotrigine for seizures. Thank you for that drugs.com link! There are soooo many common side effects for Reclast and almost nothing for Fosamax. Since it’s working well and I haven’t had any side effects from Fosamax (stomach bleeding, pain or upset) my doctor recommends it first over Reclast. Reclast is introduced into a vein thus bypassing the stomach which avoids all those stomach issues. But, once it’s in me, it’s there for a year or so. Any complications can’t be undone. With Reclast, I’m concerned about not being able to treat dental issues, several weeks of bone pain and the chance, although rare, of kidney damage. Plus all those other dozens of common side effects. It’s a very effective drug but looks pretty complicated to deal with. Hopefully I’m not just being a big chicken. In 2018 I fell and broke my ankle in two places. It took three screws to put it back together which is normal for that surgery. There was no mention of any difficulty or signs of bone loss. Thanks to my dog, I fell about a month ago onto a concrete floor with thin carpet. I landed on my left hip, then my spine, one vertebrae at a time, then clunked my head on the door frame. Twisted my wrist too. It was all in slow motion waiting to feel a crack that didn’t happen. Went to the ER tho. Amazingly, I didn’t even see any bruises. Thanks again for that link. I need to read through it some more. My doctor’s appt is next week when I’ll make the big decision.

      But for someone with Barrett's like @Charlie1946, long term PPI therapy might be necessary.
