    It's an interesting connection, and points to niacin deficiency as a possible trigger for leaky gut, and perhaps even celiac disease in those who are genetically susceptible.

    I just read more about this diet: https://www.gapsdiet.com/ It sounds a bit like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which others here have tried: It does look like others here have tried the GAPS Diet, and here is a search for that: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q="GAPS diet"&quick=1&updated_after=any&sortby=relevancy

    Yes, people who have posted on this forum have been misdiagnosed before, and some people have had both. Here is a search if you'd like to go through some past posts: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=Psoriasis Dermatitis herpetiformis&type=forums_topic&search_and_or=and

    Some bouillons actually contain gluten. Unfortunately I could not find specific info on their site: https://alimentsparador.com/en/our-products/ They do have "Reduced-salt and gluten-free bouillons," but that implies that not all of theirs are gluten-free. Have you called them? Can you post the ingredients?

    I don't take PPI's, and only took them for a month or so way back at the time when I was diagnosed over 25 years ago. I'm a moderate drinker and stick mostly to red wine...I take magnesium citrate, thiamine, B-complex, etc., regularly, so none of this explains away celiac disease. Yes, I'm sure that when I've ingested gluten that it triggers issues, and it...

    PS: I do believe that Pellagra could be a stressor event that might trigger celiac disease, and Pellagra may be more common than doctors realize.

    Remember that stress in medical terminology is not necessarily equated with mental stress, although it can be, it includes anything like a virus or other outside things that may create stress within the body’s immune system. I disagree 100% that celiac disease isn’t a lifelong condition because I was formally diagnosed with celiac disease over 25 ye...

    Also, given that you have celiac disease, and you've already made the connection between your daughter's symptoms and gluten, I am not sure that it would make sense to go through with a full 6-8 week gluten challenge in order to try to confirm a celiac disease diagnosis. If her tests turned out to be negative, would you continue feeding her gluten? As @trents...

    This study focuses on the effects of the low FODMAP diet, and not celiac disease. As far as I know, not too much research has been done in this regard on the low FODMAP diet.

    Welcome to the forum! At only 18 months old, I'm not sure how well the blood tests will do to detect celiac disease. Even the link @trents shared mentions that blood tests are for 3 years old and older, but I believe in children this blood test is important to get as the tTG tests don't work as well in children: Deamidated gliadin peptide (DGP IgA and...

    Welcome to the forum. Celiac.com has summarized all the major research that has been done on covid-19 and celiac disease, and, so far at least, the research indicates that people with celiac disease are not at a higher risk of getting covid-19 or severe covid-19 compared to those without celiac disease. Of course, the amount of research done in this...

    I also saw this article, and it is very interesting. It makes one wonder what it does to the human gut, including our gut microbiome.

    Is it possible you are sensitive to other ingredients in RX Bars?
  15. Scott Adams
    Very interesting research for sure!

    The flank steak cut, in comparison to other cuts, tends to be less expensive. Flap steak is another less expensive choice. In the example you gave above flank steak is ~30% cheaper, but yes, beef prices, along with many other food prices have shot up dramatically over the last year or two.

    Welcome to the forum @VGala! In the USA (and likely North America) yeast extract is gluten-free, and this article has more info:

    Welcome to the forum! I could not tell from your post whether or not you've: 1) Been diagnosed with celiac disease; 2) Are on a 100% gluten-free diet; 3) If the answer is yes to either, how long have you been gluten-free? More info would be helpful.

    Welcome to the forum! Hopefully going on a gluten-free diet will help your liver issues, as research has shown that a gluten-free diet can help normalize liver problems in celiacs. This category has many research articles on this topic: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/liver-disease-and-celiac-disease/

    Oh no...their web site is down! I love Grindstone. Their bread was already on the high end in terms of cost per loaf for gluten-free products, and this was before the huge recent inflation. I suspect that their cost of goods soared, and pushed their retail costs per loaf too high...but who knows. Sad to see another great gluten-free company go out of business...

    Here is a site where you can search medications and see their ingredients...just look for the inactive ingredients: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

    In the USA if it says "spices" as an ingredient, it would be gluten-free. Additionally, it there were wheat, or a possibility of contamination with wheat, they would need to include this at the end of the ingredients in the allergen area, like CONTAINS: WHEAT. More info:

    Welcome to the forum. It is definitely possible that your niece and her parents are overreacting, but I think it's important for you to try to be supportive even if that is the case. There are many examples here of totally non-supportive family members who simply dismiss such things as "crazy" or "ridiculous," and we usually see this ending badly, as...

    This is pure speculation, but I am not sure about the glues used in various plywood products, and I suppose it could be possible that some of them may contain gluten. I have heard of certain types of dry wall products that contain gluten, but I've not seen this verified by any testing.

    You blood test results are so high--over 30x the high marker for tTg Ig A 181 (normal <5.4), that I'm not even sure why you would need a biopsy to confirm it. Newer research points to diagnosing celiac disease if your tTg levels are 5-10x the CD level, and you can see more info about this, including links to the research, in this article:
