    @LoSmith, what would be helpful to you in this regard? If "Simply saying "You need to eat more vegetables" or handing over lists and recommending recipe books is not helpful when simply READING a recipe can cause someone to reject it entirely" doesn't work for you, what would be a better approach? What would that look like for you? You may need to take the...

    For the person who thinks celiac disease is a joke. I hope he never has to experience the fear of getting stomach and head issues I’ve been dealing with for years. Most of the time I eat mindfully of gluten but through the holidays I let it go just a little bit and boy did I suffer. Still am. Starting to get a little better but what a wake up call. I’v...

    I find celiac disease greatly inhances my dating efforts because it quickly eliminates jerks who do not treat my dietary needs seriously! I know immediately whether I am with someone who will treat me with the respect I deserve but my poor gluten-eating friends have to go on several dates before finding this out!

      Welcome to the forum, @Hocaco! First, we cannot comment with any certainty on your test values because you did not include the reference ranges for the test. There are no industry standards for the reference ranges and each lab constructs these tests a little differently. Second, recently updated "gluten challenge" guidelines recommend the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks in order to ensure valid celiac blood antibody test results. I would actually recommend 10g of gluten for 4 weeks to be more confident in rendering valid test results. So, I sense that your test results may not be reliable as it sounds like your gluten challenge may not have been vigorous enough.

      had an endoscopy and in my duodenum I had increase in intraepithelial lymphocytes. This was followed by a blood test.    Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA  10 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 13 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA <2 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 6 Endomysial Antibody IgA  negative Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum  101 mg/dL i rarely eat gluten, because in past I was told that I am possibly borderline, but did for 2 weeks prior to blood test  do I have celiac or just sensitive

      Thank you! Yes - this is a company in Spain but their products are available on Amazon in US.

      It's possible, as products made with wheat starch that is rendered to below 20ppm is now considered gluten-free in the USA, and has been in Europe for decades. It would be interesting to know more about the product and technology before trying it. They claim: This is a company in Spain.
