I am of Punjabi-Indian origin and I suspect I have celiac. I was also wondering if there are others of south-asian descent who had celiac since my doctor was surprised by my assertion that I might have it (since I am not of European background).

HI every body

iam from pakistan.My kids have celiac.They were diagnosed last year.It was overwhelming at first but we have modified all our recipes and r Managing well by grace of God.I would recommend u guys cook from fresh spices etc..and u will be fine..we r lucky our asian cusine is so versatile and we can enjoy our curries with rice...i will this roti recipe..its more like a crepe but is excellent for wraps and breakfast...my kids like it and they r picky eaters too..i got it off the internet myself from recipzaar i think...

one cup of rice

one cup of milk

soak rice overnight in milk in fridge,blend next day with out anything else

then add one or two eggs,blend again.

pour quarter cup in non stick frypan(add a table spoon of oil)...swirl and coat the whole pan

cook for about 30 seconds on each side or more

now the batter will be runny don't worry and the thinner the crepes\ roti the bteer it will taste...

This is a reallllyyyyy old post but I thought I could revive it :)

 

I'm not celiac, but trying to reach a diagnosis for what ever I do have.

 

I live in Canada (southwestern Ontario) but my family background is Pakistani (my great-grandparents, along with that of many Pakistani families, were Indian). I grew up in the UAE, and travel there often. @Hardeep I think there is an overarching assumption that celiac is a "European" disease but I don't think that could be further from the truth. It's common in many places outside Europe, including South Asia.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By trents · Posted

      Two thoughts: 1. What if the testing turns out negative? That won't rule out the development of active celiac disease later in life. You may have NCGS now which will transition in to celiac later on. 2. Your plan implies dishonesty in hiding it from your doctor and your insurance company.

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By Mettedkny · Posted

      Thank you for your response. I'd love to read more about your suggestion, everything I find online speaks to the opposite. Unfortunately I need the HRT due to many other factors (post menopause symptoms and osteoporosis) so stopping the estrogen would be very unfortunate. Vitamin D is pretty good, not great, but now below the norm at 36

      I take a vitamin called 21 century it has everything magnesium potassium b12 and it's just a full supplement for the day ,then I have one that my mom brought which are gummies and then I tried centrum ,I also have range of different irons (iron sulphate,iron glyciatnate and others . My problem is that I live with my aunt and due to the circumstances in my home country ( war ) we live all in a small house and they don't cook food that is rich in food and I am not comfortable in cooking for my self like meat or something like that they get mad ,that I ate everything.so I mostly eat what they eat in the day which is just a big meal and then I make small snacks that i could eat I wanted to buy moringa powder or things that I can mix easily and put them in a water bottle.my family don't take things serious about celiac they just believe I am small because I eat rice which doesn't make you get fat as they believe.they also make fun of me when I say I am gonna eat alone due to your contamination I really struggle with them.also I have vitamin D ( it was the most absorbable vitamin for me ) my blood test went from 21 to 34 after i took 50000um I guess every week and that's it .can you recommend me vitamins I can buy from Amazon or anywhere

      Elevated estrogen or fluctuations in estrogen can contribute to leaky gut and cause elevated anti-gliadin IgG in people with celiac disease who are on a gluten-free diet,  High levels of progesterone have been shown to decrease gut permeability. Talk to your doctor about a vacation from the estrogen, from your decription it looks to be the culpret.  How is your vitamin D?

      The very reason you take supplements is because you absorb poorly due to the villi inflammation.  You need these vitamins to heal and get stronger.  Could you give us a list of what you are taking and quantity? Iron supplements cause a lot of people discomfort.  Better to get iron and folate from food.  Heme iron sources rom animal products like red meat, poultry, and seafood with raise your iron. Some blood tests like magnesium, potassium, the body has a homeostasis level that they must be in the nomal range.  So don't worry about the ones in normal range. As an example from myself.  I started taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D in 2014.  It only took a few weeks until I really felt the benefit.  I was very deficient.  In 2019 my blood level of 25(OH)D was one 47 ng/ml (=117 nmol/L).  Two more years to get to 80ng/ml (=200 nmol/L) the homeostasis level for vitamin D. Whuch ones make your side hurt?  Perhaps there is an alternate.   What vitamins are you concerned about?
