Wow that's very interesting. Wouldn't celiacs have to consume that on regular basis if they are eating gluten. Regardless, I really do hope that this works. Thanks for the share.

"Fast Track" - from the same American government bureaucracy that can't be bothered to issue gluten free labeling rules pending for 5 years and the labeling rules they are contemplating would likely allow greater amounts of cross contamination in imported goods, plus allow uncalled wheat starch and oats, because they are voluntary and the FDA is going to private food inspections/compliance.

Why don't they just say there's only about 20 million of you with a gluten problem, so "get lost." :angry:

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
