This article doesn't ever mention gluten, but I thought people on this board may find it interesting:

Thanks for that. Fascinating, I had no idea. I would like to know more about that bread maker.

Ugh. I found some info on the bread maker. You have to add 50g of wheat gluten to the recipe. :blink:

It says it has a wheat-free setting where you can substitute a rice flour called Joshinko for the gluten but it would just be rice bread. I bet my normal gluten-free bread recipes are better.

Thanks for posting, very interesting story. After 30 yeas in and out of japan, I've found all sorts of no wheat crackers and even some breads in health food shops but the focus on meriken-ko is still strong. Why they add wheat to 7-11 & Family Mart onigiri is beyond me. I went to a seminar in 2005 where there were something like 12 cases of celiac. In 2007, just over 20,000. Hate to think of what it is today thanks to the western diet.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.
