Gaga also allegedly indulges on gluten-free cookies when her sweet tooth hits.

With the high concentration of fats and sugars is that not defeating her objective ?? why not eat fresh fruit if she needs a sugar rush ??

Ha David, I read this story yesterday on line, and chuckled to myself when I got to the part about the cookies. As if gluten free means magically calorie free :o If only..... B)

I laugh when people go "gluten-free" to lose weight. Because they won't get sick if they do eat gluten by accident... Not to mention, going gluten free sure it isn't a diet to lose weight if you never get glutenated and your small intestines aren't damaged. Low-carb would be a better term.

When my daughter was diagnosed, we both went gluten-free because there's only the 2 of us in the house. She has started to gain weight and my weight has not been affected one little bit by it, why would it? It's not like cutting out sugar or carbs or fats or anything, the gluten free baking has just as much sugar in it as our regular ones used to, I just substitute the type of flour, nothing else. Wow, she's an odd one.

Oh, excellent, at least someone who had some knowledge on the topic was working on the comments section over there ! Maybe my berating people for years in different venues, is having some small ripple effect ! LOL.

Hey, if Gaga wants to try it, let her, perhaps she will discover something, as there is a high percentage of people of Italian heritage with celiac. She does have the pale skin... wouldn't that be a hoot.

LOL! It sure would be a surprise if her skinny "I was born this way" body started to actually absorb more food.

and...I would KILL to eat a cheeseburger :(

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      You might also consider a low iodine diet as iodine is know to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. But be careful with that as well as there are health problems that can accrue from iodine deficiency.

      Hi, Yes, the rash has gone. I still get the itches but there is nothing to see now, apart from a lot of discoloured areas where the rash was worst. Occasionally I get a single lump come up, a bit like hives, but no bigger than a pea and it goes after 24hrs and a steroid cream application.  And yes, giving the gluten-free diet 110%. Very careful about any cross contamination.  This is my fifth autoimmune condition so well and truly on that bandwagon.

      Welcome to the the celiac.com community, @suek54! Is the Dapsone getting the rash under control? Are you practicing a gluten free diet yet? The only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis is celiac disease.
