still struggling with cravings
Scott Adams replied to wellthatsfun's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think your perspective is really helpful, especially the reminder that healing can take time and that not everyone feels clear physical changes right away, particularly if symptoms are mild or less obvious. I also appreciate what you said about allowing yourself to grieve while still trying to focus on what is still possible. Celiac disease can feel isolating... -

This Common Blood Pressure Drug Can Mimic Celiac Disease Symptoms
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
This article doesn't imply that other BP meds can create celiac disease symptoms, it focuses only on olmesartan, which is a known BP med that can do this. It is, however, important to make sure any meds you take are gluten-free. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than... -

I don't see how essential oil could contain gluten--and have never heard of anyone using it to fry with due to this risk: Do not use essential oils for deep frying. Essential oils are highly volatile, possess very low flash points (e.g., lemon oil at ~50°C/122°F), and create severe fire, explosion, and toxic fume hazards when heated. They are concentrated a...

Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad
Scott Adams replied to Aretaeus Cappadocia's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I love Middle Eastern food and eggplant, and here is another version we shared some time back: -
The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product...

Terrible Neurological Symptoms
Scott Adams replied to HectorConvector's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
This may not be the cause, it's pure speculation on my part, but for 10-15 years I had a tingling/burning/electric-like shock sensation that emanated from my right-neck upward across the right-side of my head. I was worried about having a stroke or something so got all sorts of tests done, including an MRI, which found not much--only a minor degenerative... -

Celiac disease can have neurological associations, but the better-described ones include gluten ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, headaches or migraine, seizures, cognitive symptoms, and, rarely, cerebral calcifications or white-matter changes. Some studies and case reports describe brain white-matter lesions in people with celiac disease, but these are not...

Another conversation with ChatGPT about hookworms
Scott Adams commented on dixonpete's blog entry in Pete Dixon
My question to ChatGPT: Is purposeful Hookworm infection a reasonable treatment for those who have many food intolerance issues, including those with gluten intolerance who want to eat gluten? Answer: No — purposeful hookworm infection is not a reasonable or medically accepted treatment for broad food intolerance, gluten intolerance, or for p... -
It may help to bring the clearest photos, avoid squeezing or digging at the bumps, and ask your doctor whether a skin scraping, culture, biopsy, or parasite/fungal evaluation would be appropriate based on what they see. Since you mentioned cats, it’s also worth asking about possible flea bites, mites, ringworm, or other pet-related skin issues, and checking w...

Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary...

That result shows you carry the HLA-DQ2 gene, which is one of the main genetic markers associated with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. It doesn’t confirm celiac on its own, but it does mean your body has the genetic potential to react to gluten—so your symptoms and sensitivity are definitely worth taking seriously.
