    Rice and corn are gluten-free, so it's your call how far you want to take your elimination diet. You may want to limit certain things for 2-3 weeks at a time and keep a food diary when you add them back. Given that it sounds like your symptoms are improving on the gluten-free diet, it probably makes sense not to add gluten back unless you want to get a blood...

    I think you mean 3 per day, and not 100...3x 100mg = 300mg, right?

    I believe that if they take the skin biopsy correct during a flare up, they may still be able to diagnose it correctly without you having to eat gluten, but I may be wrong about this. I do know that DH can only be properly diagnosed via a skin biopsy during a flare up. You're welcome...I'm glad the site has helped you and hope you stick around and let us...

    Eating sugar and processed flours/starches can cause SIBO (bacterial overgrowth) and other issues. Many gut problems can be helped by switching over to whole gluten-free grains and whole foods, and avoiding the processed "junk" foods, even if they are gluten-free.

    Buckwheat should be good, but get used to looking for "gluten-free" when you buy things like that, as grains can be cross-contaminated.

    It would be a bit odd for a GI doctor to diagnose you with celiac disease without some test results that backed this up, even though the fact that you mother has this makes you ~44% likely to also have it.

    I have issues with many of the claims made on their site...as I recall, and correct me if I am wrong, but that site claims celiac can't eat corn.

    Weight loss is a classic symptom of celiac disease:

    Can you post the ingredients here? Nearly all yogurts, except ones that add granola or cereals that contain gluten, are gluten-free.

    Also, do you include oats in your diet? About 10% of celiacs can't tolerate gluten-free oats.
  13. Scott Adams
    Just FYI, about 10% of celiacs (and probably people with gluten sensitivity) react to oat protein, even if the oats are pure and not contaminated with wheat. Most celiacs can eat pure oats, but not all.

    Welcome to the forum! I hope our American spellchecker fixed your English for you 😅 To confirm DH they usually do a skin biopsy, but since you’ve been gluten-free for so long it is possible that the test could end up false negative. It sounds like you already know that gluten is the cause of most of your symptoms, so at the very least you have gluten sens...

    As mentioned, I would never make that claim, but am pointing out that gluten in corn oil would be very unlikely.

    This article is from 2008, and it does make some interesting points, but does also have some issues.

    Yes, I was thinking in terms of cooking oil, but thank you for pointing that out. Corn oil should be safe, as well as olive oil, and others.

    Welcome to the forum. It would be interesting to see your blood test results with the high mark level for each. Given your doctor's reaction "GI: You can't eat or shouldn't eat gluten anymore, but as of right now, results don't show enough evidence for celiac" I think it's safe to say that your antibody levels to gliadin were probably elevated, but maybe...

    I can't guarantee that a random bottle of corn oil purchased in India would be gluten-free, but again, gluten in oil manufacturing would be bad in many ways...the oil would likely not be clear. I've never heard of wheat oil or barley oil, so I really can't imagine that the machinery used to make corn oil would be used for anything else.

    Given your classic symptoms, I'm not sure you would want to pursue a formal diagnosis, as you'd need to eat gluten daily for at least 2 weeks before a biopsy, however most doctors first want to do a celiac disease blood panel, which requires you to eat gluten daily for ~6 weeks:

    Interestingly there is a recent study that shows that Anti-tissue Transglutaminase levels, at least in some people, my also be elevated by dairy. Have you ever gone dairy-free? It's a small study so I'm a little skeptical, as those in the study may have been getting small amount of gluten contamination in their diets.

    Most of the small business incentives I've seen offered, at least on a national level, are SBA (Small Business Association) loans, which are typically very low interest rate loans for first time startup businesses. Usually you can get such loans through your bank, but here is the Web site with more info: https://www.sba.gov/ There may also be local incentives...
