  1. Unfortunately your doctors are giving you bad advice. You are correct and you need to eat about two slices of wheat bread daily for at least 6 to 8 weeks before taking a blood test for celiac disease. You should eat gluten daily for at least two weeks before doing an endoscopy.
  2. I think my daughter would like this one!
  3. I will give this one a try...I love chicken wings!
  4. Since your twin has celiac disease that means you have an approximately 44% chance of also having it. Have you ever had a blood test for celiac disease? All first relatives of people with celiac disease should be screened regularly for it due to their high risk of also having it. I recommend you get a blood screening for it, and you need to keep eating...
  5. Welcome, can you please clarify what you've posted here? It sounds like you had a celiac disease blood panel, and an endoscopy that looked for celiac disease, and both tests were negative, is this correct? Also, it sounds like you do still have issues with gluten, and if so, that likely puts you in the NCGS category, as @trents mentioned. Please let us know...
  6. There is a test for lactose intolerance, and you can read about it here: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lactose-intolerance/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20374238
  7. Welcome to the forum. If your sister has gluten sensitivity, as you claim, then she should not be eating wheat from any country, including any European wheat, but it is possible that she may tolerate certain strains better than others. Gluten sensitivity is not the same thing as celiac disease, which is an autoimmune disease. Because of this she may...

  12. The USA military currently rejects people with celiac disease who want to serve their country. The history of NASA's astronaut recruitment, covering at least the 1950's - 1990's, has been heavily dominated by those who also served in the military. To this day US military veterans probably still make up a high percentage of astronauts, so if you only consider...
  13. I think it's natural to look back at negative health events that happen after you get some sort of a vaccine, and then blame those health issues on getting this or that vaccine (this happened with parents of kids with autism, but large studies were done which show no such correlation between vaccines and autism, yet many people still believe in such a correlation...
  14. It may not be necessary, but for many with celiac disease, especially this soon after his diagnosis, it may help relieve any ongoing symptoms that he has. I had to cut all dairy out at the time of my diagnosis, along with a few other things, for at least a year before my gut healed enough to be able to process them again. I was able to add them back to my...
  15. Ok, and??? This study does not in ANY way conclude that someone should not get a covid vaccine:
  16. I am on several email lists for new research on covid-19, including The New England Journal of Medicine's. I read new info about it daily. I believe you mean the totally debunked VAERS report claims that are discussed here: https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-covid19-vaers/fact-check-vaers-data-does-not-prove-over-2000-deaths-due-to-covid-19...
  17. I am passing on the CDC's advice, and I don't need "authority" to do so: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/your-vaccination.html Get vaccinated if you haven't. This pandemic will continue until we reach a much higher percentage level of vaccinated people, and is running rampant in areas where the vaccination rate is low.
  18. Celiac.com 09/14/2021 - If you're looking for an easy way to turn out a tasty gluten-free dish that make a special meal, coconut curries are a great way to go, and this Thai-style coconut curry chicken is an excellent choice. Ingredients...
  19. This article should be helpful:
  20. Making a post here is a good place to begin. I looked up the doctor you mentioned, and he seems well qualified. Does he have a practice near you?
  21. This is excellent advice! I too have been under mandatory evacuation several times in the last 5 years due to the wild fires here in Santa Rosa, CA. Our family has been stuck in our house for a week or more each time, unable to leave or go shopping, get deliveries, etc., so we have some idea of how important this is. We also keep a good amount of canned...
  22. I've never heard of them, and am not sure what these results mean. Did they run some sort of test on you? Are these the probiotics that they recommend for you? How did they determine this?
  23. This recipe looks great...thank you for sharing it Vonnie!
  24. @Liz Barnard, be sure to always take the aspirin with food as it can cause stomach/intestinal bleeding and stomach upset in some people. I believe taking it with food reduces the risks such issues. Also, due to my family history, my doctor told me to take fish oil capsules daily, so I use the Kirkland brand from Costco. This is in addition to a low...
