    For anyone interested, @dixonpete just posted a blog update on his hookworm treatment progress:

    I had a similar experience recently when visiting some old friends this summer in Germany. I stayed for a week in a standard gluten-filled home, and like you, I brought with me some basics like gluten-free bread, tortillas, pasta, etc. Luckily I didn't encounter issues, but it may have been because I always tried to help in the kitchen (to watch over things...

    Most celiacs will benefit for a good gluten-free multivitamin & mineral supplement. One A Day and Geritol are good examples. Depending on the level of villi damage you have it could take a few months to heal, and normally you will regain lost weight after that point.

    So to clarify, you have now gone gluten-free because the hookworm treatment was not working 100% of the time for you? If this is the case perhaps you can go into your old threads on this topic and update everyone there about this change? I recommend this, as you've indicated in those threads that you've had zero issues with gluten since you started...

    Welcome to the forum, and it's great to hear stories like yours--thank you for sharing!

    Welcome to the forum. This article may be helpful:

    It is highly doubtful that your childhood vaccines are related in any way to your current health issues, and no link has ever been found between any vaccines and celiac disease. @Russ H I would also be interested in more studies on whether the strep vaccine could have any effect on the incidence of celiac disease. This is a very interesting study that...

    Welcome! We do have an extensive recipe section here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and this article might be useful:

    It sounds like your mother may not have had a celiac disease panel, so could have either celiac disease or NCGS. Since you have the genetic marker for celiac disease, and your mother has gluten sensitivity, you have two paths: 1) eat a couple of slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks and get a full celiac disease blood panel, or: 2) go gluten-free and...

    Was your mother ever tested for celiac disease, or is she just self diagnosed with gluten intolerance? I ask because at least one study has shown that up to 44% of first degree relatives of celiacs also have celiac disease.

    I see that there are perfumes that seem to be made from wheat and/or wheat germ, and they market them as such, but the real question here I think is how many regular perfumes might contain wheat?

    You have 3 strong positive tests for celiac disease which makes it extremely likely that you do have it. This article talks about the probabilities for a positive on each of these tests:

    The below batch of Snaktastic gluten-free sea salt lentil bites has been misdeclared as gluten free. This product is labelled as gluten-free but contains gluten, this may make the batches unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of cereals containing gluten. Allergen(s): Cereals containing gluten Product Identification: Snaktastic...

    Thank you for sharing...it is getting harder to find such groups as many vanished during the pandemic.

    There should be tons of them available now, are you having a hard time finding such items? Do you have Costco near you? They carry Kind bars and other brands of gluten-free bars and snacks.

    I'm not sure exactly which article you mean @knitty kitty, was it a recent one? This article also might be helpful:

    Although it may be too late now, the article below may be helpful for accidental gluten issues. I also always take GliadinX enzymes when eating out (disclosure--they are a sponsor here but I promote them because they work on small amounts of contamination):

    Welcome to the forum! It may also make sense for you to get a celiac disease blood panel before going gluten-free and making any dietary changes. Talk to your doctor about this, but here is more info:

    I'm not sure if they cover seeds, but these articles may be helpful:

    I think your approach is a good one. It's always safer to eat at home and prepare the food yourself so you know exactly what is in it.

    Making the transition to a gluten-free diet can be difficult for anyone, and especially a teenager. If you live near a Trader Joe's, Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods, etc., you should have access to many high quality gluten-free products, and I've found that some of the best deals are at Costco (they offer 2 packs of gluten-free pizzas and Franz gluten-free bread...

    If you don't have issues with them they are fine, just be sure you are buying gluten-free oats because they are often cross-contaminated with wheat. Also, around 9% of celiacs cannot tolerate avenin, the protein in oats.
