    I'm sorry this happened, and this article may come a little late:

    I did a quick search of our site and others have reported positive calprotectin and lactoferrin test results: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=calprotectin&quick=1 https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=lactoferrin&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy

    This would be a question for your dentist. There may be alternatives.

    I also could not find this info on their site. Tortilla chips are normally naturally gluten-free, however, in a restaurant environment anything could be possible. Probably the only way to know for sure would be to contact them directly.

    Great observation @Hellokittez, you would not want to start your business out by violating a trademark owned by Disney! It also sounds like a great idea to me!

    This is an interesting concept, and it may be the first time it's been brought up here. I've sensed a certain anti-establishment sentiment among many with celiac disease, and although I'm not very artistic, I did play guitar in a punk rock band in the early 80's. I've often wondered what attracted me so much to punk music, and perhaps part of this was...

    Have you been screened for celiac disease or candida albicans? If you've been gluten-free then it's likely too late to get screened for celiac disease, unless you're willing to do a gluten challenge and eat 2 slices of wheat bread a day for 6-8 weeks. However, you can be screened for candida albicans any time.

    I don't see any reason not to use Imodium during recovery, if diarrhea is still an issue. It does seem strange that she is still having diarrhea after two months gluten-free. Are you sure her diet is 100% gluten-free? Eating out can be a big source of contamination:

    I'm not much of a baker, but are you allowed to have other sweeteners, for example stevia? I ask because this is a powder, so perhaps you could use it instead of honey?

    Can I ask where "It has recently come out that many people have tested Liquid IV"? What is your source of this info?

    I would say that it's always best to use a brand that includes "gluten-free" on the label, but there are also lots of naturally gluten-free items that are safe and don't include this on their labels. It seems like their dietitian ought to know, but I do understand why you may not trust this advice. My question to them would be, why not include "gluten-free...

    Welcome to the forum. You did not mention whether or not you are following a strict gluten-free diet, which is the main thing you should be doing if you have celiac disease. If so, what medications are the doctors giving you, and why do you need them?
  14. Scott Adams
    Welcome to the forum. The average time for those with celiac disease to heal is around 2 years, but this is heavily dependent on whether or not your diet is 100% gluten-free, so be sure to look at this closely, especially if you eat outside your home, for example at restaurants. This category is where we've summarized many of the scientific publications...

    Probably casein, as the proteins in foods are what has been linked to food intolerance. Of course there may be people where palmitic acid is a factor.

    I recall that I would have a general feeling of being unwell, and my entire gut seemed to be bloated and sometimes painful, but the main area I complained about when I visited my doctor was the center-right to lower-right quadrant. This was also the area the recovered soonest after going gluten-free. I believe that after a few days on a GFD the pain in that...

    After my diagnosis I also had issues with chicken eggs, but have no issues with duck eggs, which I can find here a local market, or one of our farmer's markets. Asian markets also sometimes carry them, but be sure not to get the ones with a red mark on top, which means it has a developed embryo inside (an Asian food).

    There seems to be a mix of info about the "alkaline diet," which is what I believe you are referring to here. Some sites have debunked it outright: https://health.ucsd.edu/news/features/Pages/2019-05-06-pHear-pHactor-debunking-the-alkaline-diet.aspx https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/the-alkaline-diet-myth#what-it-is and I did find an old...

    I recall most of my issues were on my lower-right side, and I did think it was possibly appendicitis at the time.

    I agree, and the article points out that one patient of his had very high tTG levels, but no genetic markers (at that time anyway, but many new makers have been discovered in the years since it was written), and their symptoms improved dramatically on a gluten-free diet.
  24. Scott Adams
    Here is an older article, but still relevant. It's an excerpt from his book "The Gluten Syndrome."
  25. Scott Adams
    One accident before a test would not likely push your tTG levels this high. Is it possible that you may be getting small amounts of cross contamination? Do you eat out regularly? If so, this is the likely culprit. Studies have shown that cross contamination is common in restaurant foods. Another possibility is casein or cow's milk intolerance:
