  2. Celiac.com 07/12/2025 - Mexican rice, also known as "arroz rojo" or red rice, is a beloved side dish with deep roots in Mexican home cooking. Traditionally, this savory rice is simmered in a tomato-based broth with onion and garlic, and...

  5. All I can say is this site is great!
  6. From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr
  7. Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

  9. Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this. This web site is so helpful...
  10. Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include...
  11. "Vitamin D, as an immune modulator, is known to regulate immune response and maybe implicated in disease pathogenesis or susceptibility of celiac disease. Components of the immune system, such as B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, and dendritic cells, are influenced by the regulatory effects of Vitamin D ... Increasing evidence also suggests that Vitamin D deficiency...
  12. Great question! Even if some individuals with celiac disease don’t experience immediate villi damage from occasional cross-contamination, it’s still strongly recommended to maintain strict avoidance of gluten. The immune response triggered by gluten can vary between individuals, and even small amounts may cause systemic inflammation or other symptoms, ev...
  13. Celiac.com 07/10/2025 - As technology rapidly advances in healthcare, a once far-fetched idea is gaining traction: could smart toilets and other digital tools revolutionize how people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity track their...
  14. I'm fine as long as I stay away from gluten. My Celiac went undiagnosed for too long and I accumulated health problems. If I can help others on their journey, everything has been worthwhile.
  15. I am so sorry to hear that. I hope you get complete relief soon. Thank you so much for your help. You have helped me a lot.
  16. I take the essential vitamins and minerals all the time to ensure that I'm absorbing sufficient amounts because the gluten free diet can be lacking in some nutrients. I take the magnesium, tryptophan and passion flower when I can't sleep. I crushed three vertebrae (Osteopenia), so sometimes it's difficult to get comfortable. I avoid gluten...
  17. You have one gene for Celiac. You have a second autoimmune disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, which is frequently found at a higher rate with Celiac. HLA genes carry autoimmune disease genes like Celiac and Hashimoto's and diabetes and others. You have Celiac symptoms of reacting after gluten. You said "I am however still suffering from the effects...
  18. Thanks @Scott Adams! I guess my question now is: do the celiacs who can get away with regular contamination without villi damage as you mentioned have to be strict about cross-contamination ?
  19. Thank you very much @knitty kitty! I'm glad you brought up the point about histamine. I have been taking an antihistamine after meals where I don't feel so good and never knew why it helped so much. At first I thought I might have a food allergy, but I recently did a food allergy test and I actually have ZERO food allergies. Regarding your last...
  20. Thank you @knitty kitty! Do you take these supplements only after gluten exposure or all the time? If it is the latter, then why do you need to do so since there shouldn't be an autoimmune response going on?
  21. Histamine is released by mast cells as a part of the autoimmune response. Histamine also happens to be a neurotransmitter that causes alertness, hence the insomnia. You know that cup of coffee in the morning so you can wake up? Releases histamine. Diamine Oxidase (DAO) enzymes help break down histamine, as do Vitamin B12 Cobalamine and Vitamin C....
  22. @Zuma888, The antibodies produced in response to gluten are made in the intestines. When the body is provoked sufficiently, the antibodies overflow out of the intestines and into the blood stream. Once in the blood stream, the antibodies can be measured with tTg IgA tests. Three grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum is enough gluten to...
  23. I don't plan on following up with cracker barrel. I'm not sure it was the apples. I just don't know.
  24. This company is a Celiac.com sponsor...read the studies here: https://www.gliadinx.com/publications and decide for yourself.
  25. No, I would not say this at all. If you were diagnosed with celiac disease and were gluten-free for a while, you could have gone into remission. Everyone's body is different, and some celiacs may be able to get regular contamination and not end up with damaged villi and positive antibody tests, while others who ingest tiny amounts will relapse and have full...
  26. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...
