  1. until
    Join the Harvard Medical School Celiac Education & Research Program and the National Celiac Association for the second webinar in our Fall 2023 “Ask the Experts” series. Speakers will present on selected topics for 60 minutes, fol...
  2. We have some excellent travel articles that might be helpful for you which are here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/
  3. Many factors go into how long it may take to heal, not the least of which is a person's age at diagnosis. The younger you are the faster you tend to heal. The ability to avoid all gluten in another factor, and this often takes many people a few months or even longer to figure out. I think most celiacs should fully heal within 1-2 years if they are 100% gluten...
  4. 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"...
  5. It's far too early to say, much more research needs to be done, but this research looks promising in terms of a possible new angle to treat celiac disease.
  6. Celiac.com 10/21/2023 - Celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten consumption, has long been associated with a range of digestive symptoms. However, the story doesn't end in the digestive tract. For some individuals, celiac...
  7. In a perfect world a 100% gluten-free household is ideal, but it doesn't seem fair to make your other child go gluten-free if they don't have any issues with gluten (they should also be screened for it, by the way--all first degree relatives of celiacs should be screened). I guess I would have a family meeting and discuss it with everyone, and see how...
  8. Remission has been documented in celiac disease, and for some people it might take weeks or months for symptoms and damage to present, but if your original diagnosis was correct, eating gluten will lead to health risks, gut damage, and most likely symptoms.
  9. You may want to look at some of our past articles that include references to lung issues and celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=lung&quick=1&type=cms_records2
  10. Welcome to the forum, but this thread is over 3 years old so you may not hear back from some of the original posters. Are you on a gluten-free diet?
  11. The article's focus is on additional foods that may cause celiac-like reactions in some people with celiac disease. If you are not having ongoing symptoms and your gluten-free diet is working for you, there is no need for you to change anything.
  12. Clubbing of the fingers is not typically associated with celiac disease. Clubbing of the fingers is more commonly associated with certain respiratory and cardiovascular conditions.
  13. Let us know how it goes!
  14. Be sure to keep eating lots of gluten daily until your celiac disease tests are completed. and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
  15. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product...
  16. Try taking Celiac.com's Celiac Disease Quiz to see how much you know about this disease.
  17. This is not a complete list, so if a brand does not appear here it does not mean that it is not gluten-free.
  18. If you're 100% sure gluten is the cause of your suffering, and you can't stand to do a gluten challenge just to take a test to prove this, I see no reason for you to continue the challenge. Why damage your health to find out what you already know?
  19. While anosmia (loss of the sense of smell) is not a typical or common symptom of gluten ataxia or celiac disease, neurological conditions can potentially impact various sensory functions, including the sense of smell. It's important to note that any neurological condition that affects the brain and nervous system has the potential to cause a wide range of...
  20. A variety of packaged nuts and nut mixes made by Azar Nut Co. in El Paso, TX have been voluntarily recalled by Azar Nut Co. due to wheat not being declared on their labels. The recalled products include: Power Snacks Honey Roasted Sunflower Kernels Circle K Sweet & Spicy Mix Circle K Get Up Trail Mix Circle K Honey Roasted...
  21. We've summarized research articles on thyroid issues and celiac disease, which are in this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/thyroid-pancreatic-disorders-and-celiac-disease/
  22. While I know that some glues could contain gluten, the company who makes any glue would definitely know more about this than anyone else...if Gorilla Glue says it is gluten-free you can probably go with that. Even if it did contain gluten, however, how would this be an issue for your Mom? On wood projects I've worked on I don't recall getting glue on...
  23. Welcome to the forum! Can you give the full blood test results with the reference range? If it was a TtG-IgA test and you were 10x above the positive marker, it is my understanding that in the UK you would not need a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. Assuming that this is the case, it would be very likely that you do indeed have celiac disease. How well...
  24. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. The next step might be an endoscopy to confirm a celiac disease diagnosis, and if that ends up being negative you may still want to try out a gluten-free diet to see if his symptoms improve. Approximately...
  25. This one claims to be gluten-free: https://www.amazon.com/Adhesive-NaturDent-Dentures-Petrochemical-Additives/dp/B07HDMWKVK
