Just read the article on here with the video. It was a YouTube video talking about how 1 in 17 kids have a food allergy. She researched and said that in 1994 they started with the Gmos. Other countries banned them but not us! And we have the highest cancer rates and healthcare cost of any country! So when did your food intolerances start. Has it been since 1994?

I have no idea when mine started as I had no idea I even had the problem until my diagnosis which took me by complete surprise. However, I must say that whenever I go to Croatia (where gmo's are banned in most counties) I quickly feel more energized and able to manage chronic pain better. But then it does not help that currently we live only a few km away from an oil refinery.

The following offers a bit of information on gmo's, especially in the U.S. I used to work for an organic certification agency (one of the largest in the world) and know firsthand so many issues surrounding gmo's which I believe are evil. Seriously. If everyone saw what I did, they would be sickened.

And if you are interested, the following is a short animated blurb on factory farming which I am also strongly opposed to. It is very interesting and illuminating!

Wow that really makes me sick! Yuck! And these scientists are proud of using viruses and chemicals and what ever else to mutate our food? They say modified to make it around better. That's sick! America is so messed up in so many ways. I do not trust the FDA to protect me. I think everything is far to skewered by an exaggerated value on convenience instead of nutrition. No wonder we are all so ill.

Now that I know what it is & what it is related to & am looking back with 20/20 vision; I have to say I've had celiac all my life or at the very least since the teen years. And I'm now 55.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By trents · Posted

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Samanthaeileen1 · Posted

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
