    Also, it is more than "wise" to eat at least 2 slices of wheat bread for 6-8 weeks before a blood test for celiac disease, but is the Mayo Clinic protocol, and your results could be artificially low or a false negative if you don't do this. It would likely be a good idea to delay the test until you follow the full 6-8 week protocol.

    Luckily dextrose is gluten-free, but it is too bad that you also have a corn intolerance.

    Thanks for this, and it reminded me that we did summarize that study:

    The vision improvement was also an unexpected side effect when I went gluten-free over 25 years ago. I also wore classes at the time, and was able to give them up for almost 20 years.

    Certainly the food an animal eats can affect many things, including is size and perhaps even color, however, if you are suggesting that the meat may not be gluten-free if an animal eats gluten grains, there is no evidence that I've seen over the last 25+ years that would support this concept. It does come up here regularly, and it would be great if a study...

    You may also want to be casein/cow's milk free for a while, as many celiacs also report having issues with casein, especially right after diagnosis.

    This article is from 2008 and was in a back issue of our Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. The author is now retired.

    Wheat allergy is not the same as celiac disease, and to get a blood test for celiac disease you need to be eating ~2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks beforehand. If you ask your doctor for a celiac disease blood panel it should be what you need to be screened for celiac disease. Here is more info:

    The loose stools could be from anything, even the fact that you weren't eating food for so long, and then started eating them again. You also may have other issues going on, for example additional food intolerances, so you may need to keep a food diary for a while to see if the issue can be linked to a particular food or foods.

    Testing it would be the only way to know for sure, but based on your description of having cleaned the cutting board well, even though it is wood, it is very doubtful that enough gluten could have been transferred from the cutting board to the sauce, and given the large amount of sauce--4 gallons--it could not be enough to contaminate such a large batch.

    Let us know how it turns out.

    Your symptoms all sound like they could be related to undiagnosed celiac disease, including your history of miscarriage and your diagnosis with Hashimoto's (in some cases this can be related to celiac disease, and if so, can improve on a gluten-free diet). It would be best to get a blood panel done for celiac disease before you go gluten-free.

    We've done a couple or articles on this topic, both are fairly old so it is possible that things have changed, but the article comments may also be helpful:

    @miguel54b I know EnteroLab well, and know the owner Dr. Kenneth Fine...he has written some articles for us: https://www.celiac.com/profile/81334-kenneth-fine-md/ Given your symptoms and genetic results I think you've found your answer!

    I know that this isn't directly related, more so with regard to brain fog as a symptom of celiac disease, but since we're often "pushing" vitamins/supplements on Celiac.com there is a lot of science happening now to support the multivitamin/minerals approach for everyone, and not just celiacs: Effects of cocoa extract and a multivitamin on cognitive...

    You didn’t mention the condition of your oven, how sensitive you are to gluten, whether you have celiac disease, etc., but unless the oven is used to bake breads and gluten-filled products regularly and is not clean it’s hard to imagine that this would contaminate your food to a dangerous level.

    We have quite a few bread recipes here, and some may meet your criteria: /celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-bread-recipes/ This is the go to recipe here, but complex:

    Besides carefully reading labels and trying to buy items with "gluten-free" or even better, certified gluten-free on them, I have two strategies to deal with such a situation. 1) I use a Nima Sensor and test the items I eat regularly (I think you're right about the spice mix--I tested some curcumin that I bought in an Indian store that did not say "gluten...

    I think you are correct that DGP IGA is highly sensitive for celiac disease, so I would take the positive test seriously, not matter what anyone tells you, and try to either get more tests done, or try a gluten-free diet.

    Since the OP did not mention anything about her son using cannabis, it's doubtful that they would need to worry about prodromal CHS. I think that if your son has already made a connection between eating bread and increased symptoms, then he should either pursue further testing for celiac disease, or simply go gluten-free for a few months to see if his...

    It's doubtful that smoking would spread any gluten to others, but it's not healthy for others to breathe in 2nd hand smoke, so hopefully he doesn't smoke inside around non-smokers. Even if cigarettes have tiny amounts of gluten in them, which is unknown at this point, it's doubtful that him touching them and then touching something else would create any issues...

    Sorry if you got multiple replies here...the forum had some technical issues today which hopefully are resolved.
