    Please try to keep this thread on topic--it seems to be getting way off the topic that it is in. Much of the posts here belong in the Gab/Chat area--or on a different board. I am happy that there is a stong community here, but please stay on topic because that is what will help people here most. Much of what is in this thread belongs in PM's (Personal messages...

    Because of a set of very fortunate incidents, we are lucky to have Shelley Case in the Baltimore area over the Oct 6/7 weekend! She has agreed to give a presentation to all of the groups in our Baltimore/DC area and we, the Anne...

    PS - There is evidence that other foods besides gluten will cause flattening of the intestinal villi--this post is from back in 1998, and the studies were limited to children--unfortunately not much follow up research has been done on this important topic: "There’s a specific note in Michael Marsh’s book about food allergies causing villi damage. That’s t...

    Hello Mike, I think you've switched to the strategy that if you say it enough times it will be true. Please see below: Did you miss the link to scientific testing for food intolerance (IgG testing - not food allergy) for 113 different foods? Food intolerance testing is now offered by many other labs (perhaps not down there in Uraguay, but maybe...

    The site you referenced does not provide any scientific studies that back up anything that they claim there. I know first hand that food allergies cause depression (as can food intolerance). My son, for example, gets depressed regularly whenever he discovers, for example, that a birthday cake has nuts in it which he is allergic to. The way you quantify depression...

    Do you even read your own references? On the site you posted it says: "General surveys report that as many as 25-30% of households consider at least 1 family member to have a food allergy. This high rate is not supported by controlled studies in which food challenges are used to confirm patient histories...Severe anaphylactic reactions, including death,...

    Hello Mike1972: You wrote: The fact that some people's problems here encompass more than just celiac disease does not discount the real possibility that people with one autoimmune disease are much more likely to have additional autoimmune diseases--in fact they are much more likely to have additional disorders than the normal population. Additional...

    So we agree that the placebo effect is real, although I disagree with your assessment of how great this effect is. Unfortunately based on the limited information given by the people who posted in this thread there is no way for you to jump to conclusions and claim that what they are experiencing is mental, which is what you are implying here. When you make...

    Hello Mike1972: Sure, the placebo effect is real, and works in a number of ways. You can probably even convince some people with terminal cancer that their pain is less by giving them a sugar pill--but that doesn't mean that they don't have cancer now does it? If you had spent a little more time digging in medical articles you might have found some of...

    There is no longer a user #1, that user was a programmer who helped me set the board up. We deleted his account after we set it up. FYI: I almost caved in to pressure to discontinue the older version of this board (and the idea of a board altoether) because a very large celiac support group in the UK told me that they were removing the link to my site...

    I just saw this topic today (I actually don't get to browse the forums as often as I'd like). In case anyone is wondering about my professional background, I have a B.A. in History with a minor in German (I did a one year exchange at Tuebingen University in Germany). I had several jobs right after college, and my favorite was working for an environmental...

    Ok, we really need to put an end to any bickering--this topic has been resolved as far as I'm concerned. FaithInScienceToo please do not post my PM's to you without first asking me--that is just common courtesy. I removed them because they were between me and you. Also, please don't use posts to ask the moderators to ban or warn anyone--that is done via the...
