    It sounds like you may fall into the super-sensitive category, and if so, these feelings may be an overreaction, but one based on real experiences you've had in the past. If the people around you are bakers covered in wheat flour, it's highly unlikely that their mere presence in the room where you are preparing your food would be risky. It's probably better...

    I think this can vary a lot from person to person, and I believe doctors say 2-3 times a day is in the "normal" range, so if you are going 4-5 times a day you may have other intolerance issues, or your diet may not be 100% gluten-free. Floating stools are definitely a symptom of fat malabsorption.

    Bad news for beer lovers! This article may be helpful, and be sure to check out the comments as well:

    It is very interesting, and we've done some article some articles on glyphosate: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=Glyphosate&quick=1&type=cms_records2

    I know this isn't ideal, but could you attend wearing an N95 mask and just use the covid risk as the excuse for the mask, eat before you go, and just be there for the experience?

    23 and me should work for most of the basic genetic markers (I'm not sure about the other company, but it would likely be fine as well). He may also want to try this for a blood screening on his family: https://www.imaware.health/ Interestingly, my daughter's main symptom was the feeling that there was always food stuck in her throat/esophagus,...

    I also supplement zinc, and many of your posts make me wonder if celiac disease could be avoided in many people if they were to properly supplement. The different triggers of celiac disease in those with the genetic markers are not fully understood, and could certainly be nutritionally related.

    This is an interesting study and I've added it to our list of summaries we plan to do. I also was not aware that children are being prescribed PPI's, which I find a bit scary.

    The zinc connection to inflammation interesting, and there is definitely a connection between poor nutrition and Cytokine production.

    I'll share this article, which we plan to update soon:

    Your results look strongly positive for celiac disease, and after your biopsy you'll likely need to go on a gluten-free diet: Please let us know how it turns out!
  12. Scott Adams
    Please share your daughter's test results here if possible. I find this middle "suggestive of celiac disease" diagnosis rather odd, but to me it sounds like a positive diagnosis, and she has celiac disease.

    You might try taking a choline supplement, just be sure it is gluten-free. Most people are deficient in choline: https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Choline-HealthProfessional/#:~:text=Choline is an essential nutrient,phospholipids vital for cell membranes. If you believe you may have low stomach acid, you could try taking HCL tablets with food for...

    @Grammy9If the ingredients are gluten-free then the medication is likely gluten-free. Medications are not prone to cross contamination in the same way as foods. There is no GF certification for medications.

    Thank you for the update @Chance. Please see if you can get a copy of the blood test results and share them here, including the reference ranges for a positive test. This would be helpful, but it sounds like you tested positive for celiac disease.

    Bloating can be common in untreated celiac disease and/or other food intolerances. If you're already gluten-free and having this issue double check your diet to make sure it is 100% gluten-free, and if so, keep a food diary and try eliminating dairy/casein, and other food types to see if you can figure out the cause. This article may help:

    BTW, just a thought here, but at the time of my diagnosis, likely due to the severe leaky gut issues, I could not tolerate around 5-6 other foods, for example chicken eggs, tomatoes, corn, casein, and a couple of others. It took me a few years to be able to add them back, and I still can only eat chicken eggs once per week. Given how many eggs you are eating...

    Welcome to the forum! It seems like quitting smoking, in your case, was a positive side-effect of having celiac disease. Hopefully you can continue on as a non-smoker. I think you've got a great attitude about this, which is more than half the battle with regard to staying gluten-free, and I had the same attitude after I was diagnosed. I had been...

    It will take time for you to recover from celiac disease, and the average time is 2 years. Your loss of appetite will hopefully improve after going gluten-free, but it could take more time.

    I did not know they had one, and also wonder about their program.
  23. Scott Adams
    Welcome! I also eat out regularly, and when I do I take a couple of GliadinX AN-PEP based enzymes which have been shown in numerous studies to break down gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines (Note that they are also a sponsor here, but this is not why I'm sharing this info). Of course it is best to just not eat out, but for those...
  24. Scott Adams
    Note that just because up to 20ppm is allowed before an involuntary product recall could happen, it does not mean that products labelled "gluten-free" regularly contain 5-19ppm. Most likely have zero detected gluten, and if any gluten were detected below 20ppm it should be cause for concern, and most companies would try to find out where the gluten came from...

    I've not had them before, but please let us know what they share with you.
