    My daughter and I use GliadinX regularly with zero issues. If you plan to continue to eat outside your home you may want to look into trying this supplement as well--FYI: they are also a sponsor here. Regarding beer, this article may be helpful:

    What are the apps? It's a bit hard to comment on them when we don't even know which ones you downloaded. In general it's best to learn to read ingredient labels and allergen warnings than to reply on an app. Users here are unlikely to know when and how they update them.

    Yes, just search for the drug by name, then find the manufacturer.

    If you have undiagnosed celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity and keep eating gluten it could cause damage and increase various health risks, but if you want a formal diagnosis it’s the only way to go.

    According to this product it says "does not contain gluten or soy," so it seems to be naturally gluten-free: https://www.trubiotics.com/products/trubiotics-capsules/

    The ingredients look to be naturally gluten-free.

    Thank you for the info, and in the future you can search any med here for it's ingredients: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

    It looks like they are naturally gluten-free: https://www.gatorade.com/fuel/hydration/gatorlyte/20-ounce-bottle/strawberry-kiwi This article may be helpful:

    We also have lots of articles on this here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/diabetes-and-celiac-disease/

    I agree that this can be the case, however, something like 20-30% of people who have been diagnosed with celiac disease fail to properly follow a gluten-free diet. Many continue eating out, cheat on their diets, etc., so it's unclear exactly what this chart is showing here. For those in the study who took longer than 2 years it may be showing a dietary compliance...

    Oh, and how could I forget, but 4) Doctors often fail to check for total serum IGA levels, which is just standard protocol for any celiac disease blood screening.
  12. Scott Adams
    Actually in my experience more errors are made by: 1) Doctors not doing the biopsies properly during an endoscopy for celiac disease and/or not providing any Marsh score on the findings; 2) Doctors not informing their patients to do a gluten challenge properly before a biopsy OR blood test; 3) Doctors not understanding the blood test results when one test...

    Welcome to the forum, and this article has more info on the blood test results. Be sure she keeps eating gluten daily, at least 2 slices of bread, until all testing is completed:

    Most celiacs would not need to go to this extent to have their antibody levels normalize, but everyone is different, and those who are supersensitive may need to take additional precautions.
  15. Scott Adams
    It is possible, but could it also be a side-effect of this medication, or some other ingredient in it?

    They don't seem to answer this question on their web site: https://www.meaningfulbeauty.com/faq/products.html so you likely need to call them directly: PHONE Call Customer Service at (800) 927-0047 Please let us know what you find out.
  17. Scott Adams
    If you plan to get further tests for celiac disease keep in mind that you need to be eating gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before blood tests, and 2 weeks before a biopsy.
  18. Scott Adams
    Let us know how it turns out...good luck!
  19. Scott Adams
    Since you had a positive blood test for celiac disease perhaps try a gluten-free diet to see if it helps with your symptoms (if so, likely non-celiac gluten sensitivity). It's unfortunate that your doctors are dismissing you, and it may be time to seek a different doctor.
  20. Scott Adams
    It's always a good idea to double check your diet just in case you might be getting hidden gluten:
  21. Scott Adams
    Were you eating at least two slices of wheat bread daily for at least 2 weeks before your endoscopy? If not then this could skew your results. It looks like a negative biopsy for celiac disease, but to be sure ask your gastro about these results. This does not rule out non-celiac gluten sensitivity, so if you have symptoms your next step might be a gluten...
  22. Scott Adams
    To me it seems like hidden gluten could be the culprit, although there is some limited research that has shown that in some people who are sensitive to casein/dairy, consuming it can also elevate tTg levels. Do you eat in restaurants? If so, this would be a likely source of regular contamination.

    We have an entire category on refractory celiac disease, which is very real, and have summarized around 40 studies on it over the years: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/refractory-celiac-disease-collagenous-sprue/
  24. Scott Adams
    Kraft labels all allergens, and if there is any possibility of contamination from an ingredient, they will include it in their ingredient labels as a possible allergen.
  25. Scott Adams
    Personally I eat many other non-gluten grains regularly, including corn, but I don't have an oxalate issue so I might not be the best person to ask. I do know that a majority of celiacs can tolerate the vast majority of gluten-free grains, especially after the 1-2 year healing phase is complete.
