Latest Celiac Disease News & Research:

    For around 3 years now I've been taking GliadinX whenever I eat in restaurants. Full disclosure, they are an advertiser here, but before they became an advertiser I had already read studies on AN-PEP enzymes and their ability to break down gliadin in the stomach, before it reaches your intestines. Multiple studies have been done that show AN-PEP does this...

    The studies that have been done focus on those diagnosed with celiac disease who eat gluten, and the cancer risks drop to nearly normal after a year on a gluten-free diet. I've not seen studies done on those with non-celiac gluten sensitivity, but it would not surprise me if they also had an increased risk due to inflammation. However, the overall risk is...

    Interesting article, thank you for sharing it! I've always thought that stress hasn't been researched enough. Here are some older articles on stress and celiac disease:

    Welcome to the forum. You definitely had extremely high results on your blood test. I think your doctor is right about being happy with your current results, and it may take you even longer to get them down close to zero, which should be your goal. Be sure you're not getting hidden gluten, for example if you eat out in restaurants it's pretty common, including...

    Thanks for sharing, as I've not heard of this amino acid before. It looks like some people with dry eye or lung issues take it: https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1018/n-acetyl-cysteine-nac It's interesting that it's helped your symptoms, and hopefully others will chime in here about their experiences with it.

    I agree, all foods have shot up, but the gluten-free food prices are astronomical now. The gluten-free bread we get at Costco has gone up 30-40% in just a year. I'm not sure if you saw this article, but in the UK it's the same:

    The definition of "Science is the pursuit and application of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence. Scientific methodology includes the following: Objective observation: Measurement and data (possibly although not necessarily using mathematics as a tool) Evidence." So when it...

    Welcome to the forum. Since you're recently diagnosed, this article may also be helpful:

    Kettle River Products, an Askov, Minn., establishment, is recalling approximately 1,464 pounds of chicken alfredo pizza due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The product contains wheat, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. ...

    Welcome to the forum. If you would like to get tested for celiac disease again, you would need to eat gluten again, specifically a couple of slices of wheat bread per day for 6 to 8 weeks until you take another blood test. If not, it’s likely gluten sensitivity and the outcome is the same—a gluten-free diet, as @trents mentioned.

    Welcome to the forum. Feel free to share that blood test results with us, and if you do so please also share the reference ranges. Even just one positive celiac disease blood test result can indicate that you have celiac disease. The biopsy is considered the gold standard to confirm a diagnosis, however if you had two blood test results that were positive...

    Hopefully you realize that the tiny number of personal experiences that you are sharing here are scientifically insignificant. Using science and statistics is the best way to protect the most people. Using anecdotal evidence from one person is not a good way to try to protect society from a pandemic.

    How do you explain the French Paradox, where people in France have been shown to live longer than those in many other countries western countries, yet they drink large quantities of red wine per capita. Additionally the Mediterranean diet includes lots of red wine and lots of fermented vinegars, particularly balsamic vinegar. In China, Taiwan and other parts...

    Again I’m not sure that fasting will accomplish anything with regard to a person who has celiac disease. Also, keep in mind that celiac disease can go into remission in some people after being on a gluten-free diet for a long time. This forum has seen many people over the years who thought they were cured because they didn’t have any symptoms when they sta...

    If you are lucky enough to have mild or few symptoms after getting covid this may be true, but the best approach to reduce your risk of severe covid symptoms and death would be to get a safe and effective covid vaccine, rather than to get covid.

    Welcome to the forum. Have you tried any of the hypoallergenic toilet paper from Amazon? I noticed they even have some made from bamboo fiber: https://www.amazon.com/hypoallergenic-toilet-paper/s?k=hypoallergenic+toilet+paper

    The normal protocol would be to get the blood panel done first: and if you have positive results, possibly get a biopsy after.

    The Mayo clinic recommends eating at least 2 slices of bread for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening for celiac disease, and 2 weeks for an endoscope:

    Unfortunately you can't starve yourself out of having celiac disease, and yes, celiac disease is also an issue in countries where people are more likely to experience food scarcity (and may even contribute to the problem of starvation in those countries due to a lack of awareness and access to health care):

    I will admit that I had no idea there was an island in Ohio...with its own winery!

    @LiJ if would be great if you could meet with your instructors and arrange for you to try to make gluten-free versions of all pastries. I'm not sure they'd allow it, but if so, would definitely make the time and effort you spend there more valuable for your future career.

    Given the high numbers of people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity who take, or have taken PPI's, I thought that this study might be of interest: https://bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12916-021-02180-5

    So I'm not sure how relevant this is to the original poster's request for advice. There are literally hundreds of millions of people who happily eat pastries each day and are not fat. Of course, many people may put on weight eating them or other things, but this really has nothing to do with the topic.
  25. Scott Adams
    You are mistaking anyone here "dissing her dream," as pursuing it in a gluten-filled environment could be harmful to her health, and may not give her the skills she will need to make gluten-free versions of wheat pastries. The original poster has come here for advice, and it is therefor fair for others here to offer it, without being shamed for doing so.
