    Van’s International Foods (“Van’s”) is voluntarily recalling certain packages of Van’s Gluten Free Original Waffles, because they may contain undeclared wheat. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to wheat run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products. The affected products are labeled with Lot ...

    In the USA modified corn starch is made from corn and is gluten-free, but if it is ever made from another source it needs to be labeled that way, for example: modified food starch (from wheat).

    The nuts are likely naturally gluten-free and safe because they would need to put an allergen warning label for wheat, if there was the possibility that there could be any wheat contamination.

    It is certainly possible that there is another gastro explanation for your eczema, and perhaps treating the SIBO will help it improve. Since you are already gluten-free are you also making sure that you are on a low iodine diet, just in case it is DH? Iodine in sea food, dairy, salt, etc., can cause DH flare ups.

    As @trents mentioned your blood tests are negative, and if you originally got those tests done because you have symptoms when eating gluten then your next step would probably be a gluten-free diet for a while to see if that helps with your symptoms, but this would be your choice, since you don't seem to have celiac disease.

    If she is not having any issues staying on her gluten-free diet I see zero reason to go through with a gluten challenge, but of course this is your choice. On the downside of getting an official diagnosis (and for the record none of my doctors have EVER called for more follow-up testing regarding my celiac disease status, vitamin/mineral levels, etc., without...

    I think you should definitely be screened for celiac disease. Many celiacs have no symptoms at all, but since you do have symptoms and have linked them to eating gluten, it's possible that you have celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Here is more info about the blood tests, and you need to eat 2 slices worth of wheat bread daily for 6-8...

    Just FYI McDonald's fries have never tested positive for gluten, and Hydrolyzed Wheat is considered gluten-free, especially in the levels used in their beef flavor. Of course there are other fast food fries you can get without Hydrolyzed Wheat, but this article and its comments have more info:

    But the Earth was never flat or the center of our universe, and only ignorance and religious dogma kept European populations in the dark on these things—thus the “dark ages.” It took brave people using science during the Enlightenment to prove this, but I don’t see how your comments are related to this article. Don't act like there isn't an objective truth o...

    This study's goal was only to "examine pregnancy outcomes by analyzing a large database of maternal, obstetrical, and neonatal outcomes in mothers with celiac disease." It did find that celiac disease did indeed affect the outcomes of pregnancies, and cited the various negative effects that celiac disease had on those in this study. It's goal was never to...

    Yes, but my ataxia issues did not resolve for over 20 years, and not until I began additional supplementation.

    Pure millet is definitely gluten-free and many products are now made using it:

    Hopefully they won't end up being used!

    The findings you mentioned from an endoscopy, specifically intraepithelial lymphocytosis with hyperplasia of the crypts and moderate atrophy of intestinal villi, could indicate that you have celiac disease. Intraepithelial lymphocytosis refers to an increased number of lymphocytes (a type of immune cell) within the lining of the small intestine. Hyperplasia...

    If your "hemocratit is bordering low and ferritin levels are very low" it would not hurt to supplement with iron until the levels increase. I am not sure where you live, but it seems reasonable to take a supplement for a while and then get the levels re-checked in a few months. Recovery is definitely possible, but it involves a combination of staying...

    Do you include oats in your diet? If so, perhaps exclude those for a while, as ~9% of celiacs cannot tolerate oats. It does sound like you may have vitamin/mineral deficiencies caused by malabsorption, and nerve issues/damage is common and can create gluten ataxia. Have you tried taking the supplements in the morning after eating? If so, does this still...

    Most people make their own shakes.

    Your doctor probably doesn't have celiac disease 😁. Many of its almost 200 recorded symptoms are caused by nutrient deficiencies, some of which take years to recover from, depending on the level of gut damage you have.

    Please post scientific studies that support your comment that: "they believe there is a correlation from being over vaccinated with the DTP- putting me in a hyperimmune state". Who are "they," and the fact that people might believe something that has zero basis in fact would not surprise me at all. As for Diptheria, it is possible to be exposed to diphtheria...

    I agree, if you are going to do at gluten challenge to be tested it must be done according to protocol, or you will suffer needlessly and get unreliable results that could lead some to start eating gluten again (after their doctor tells them they have negative results!). More info is here:
