Despite the fact that celiac disease impacts one per cent of Canadians, and up to six per cent being gluten sensitive, the gluten-free diet has gained popularity as celebrity 'authorities' and those promoting fad diets make unfounded weight loss claims.

This is a press release from what traces back to the wheat lobby pushing changes in the school lunch program so they can continue to get U.S. Federal Ag subsidies and have product placement in a captive market.

By the way, there goes Shelley Case, "registered dietician" again, trying to have her status as "the" gluten free expert and pushing the wheat-eating at the same time. <_<

That was titled at the SacBee to a press release, btw, from the "Healthy Grains Institute" which is an alleged non profit. (which is seeking funding from entities like Cargill ? get real) I am having trouble with the google search engine on finding a website for this "HGI," the only thing I've found is a pdf download from the "grainsforhealth.org" which details their yearly meeting, which, when studied, shows they are just another wheat lobby trying to get more wheat into schoolchildren under the guise of it is going to be "healthier," see here:

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
