    Unfortunately their website doesn't list any ingredients: https://www.sheetz.com/ You'd probably need to call them to find this out.

    PS - Bombay Gin is gluten-free, if you believe that it isn't, please provide the evidence.

    In general if you see "gluten-free" on a label in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., it does mean that the food is safe for those with celiac disease, and it does NOT mean that there is 19ppm gluten in it, as some people might lead you to believe. Whenever a company detects gluten in the 5-19ppm (most tests can't accurately go below this level...

    You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...

    To me it sounds like you are done with doctors, at least as far as diagnosing celiac disease goes. It does not sound like you are willing to eat at least two slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks to get your blood work re-done (yes, this is necessary and your GI doctor is incorrect about this). It takes only one positive blood test like the one you...

    I agree, and it sounds like he needs to get back to the basics, but this can be hard for young people who might feel peer pressure and want to fit in. My kids both have gone through this, and still do at times (my oldest is 22 and youngest is 18), but both are doing better as they get older (and hopefully wiser!). This article has some detailed information...

    I am not sure they are still in business, as the links to their sites no longer work in this press release: https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/envara-health-launches-encala-to-enhance-fat-absorption-and-provide-healthy-calories-for-patients-with-cystic-fibrosis-301155475.html

    If it is gluten-free and helps with malabsorption then it seems like a good fit. I saw a study on it here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7209323/

    Let us know how it turns out.

    I have eaten Asian rice noodles fairly regularly for decades, without issues, however, that isn't a guarantee that some brands might be cross-contaminated in a processing plant. I would only mention that you might want to instead opt for ones made in Viet Nam or Thailand, as they do not grow wheat in those countries.

    It could be related to: Dietary Intake: High dietary intake of foods rich in vitamin B6 or carotene can lead to elevated levels. This could include a diet with significant amounts of certain vegetables, fruits, or vitamin B6-rich foods. Metabolic Factors: Individual variations in metabolic processes can influence how the body absorbs and utilizes...

    It seems like you're on the right path, as your levels seem to be dropping rapidly. If you eat at restaurants or outside your home it's possible you're getting some contamination. It's always a good idea to reexamine your diet. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read...

    Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

    Those would be very common symptoms for many with celiac disease who accidently ingest gluten:

    Researchers have not found all genetic markers associated with celiac disease, so it's possible you have a more rare variant. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
  21. Scott Adams
    This scenario, unfortunately, is fairly common. It only takes one positive blood test result to mean that you may have celiac disease, and although a negative biopsy may technically rule this out for now, it could still mean that you've simply caught this early, before it has caused you to have damaged villi. It's doubtful that the GI doctor would...

    There may be a benefit if a diagnosis helps you to stay on a gluten-free diet, as some people without a formal diagnosis may lean towards cheating on their diets. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would l...
