    It could be, and they do have a breath test to diagnose SIBO, so you might want to pursue that. We just updated an older article that might be helpful to you: Also, a low FODMAP diet may be worth trying out at this point.

    Welcome to the forum, both of you! This is a common symptom of celiac disease, and is also reported in those with gluten sensitivity. One question I have for you is, are you sure that your diet is 100% gluten-free? This problem should clear up after a few weeks or months if it is the cause of your issue.

    I'm sorry to hear you've had some set backs, but this is common. These two articles might be helpful:

    Welcome to the forum @acurry! It's great to hear that you have a doctor who is on top of this. The UK diagnostic criteria for blood tests only is fairly new, and more about that is here:

    Vertigo and dizziness were a big symptom for me, and are a common symptom.

    I still eat out once a week or so, and always take GliadinX (a site sponsor), which are AN-PEP based enzymes that have been shown in multiple studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the stomach. This enzyme would not work as a more general enzyme for other foods, and seems to target gliadin.

    It's great that you shared this because rumors that dry wall could contain gluten have been around for a long time, but testing it is the only way to know for sure, and now we can say this isn't just a rumor!

    We added both to our list, thank you!

    Yes, I have sleep apnea and use a CPAP device. If you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, not all of your health issues are caused by gluten.

    I got my first Moderna vaccine today. So far I only have noticed a very mild sore area in my shoulder at the injection area.

    Lots of people have issues with garlic so it’s certainly possible. you might want to keep a food diary to see if you can pinpoint it something you’re eating. This article might also be helpful:

    I happen to know some very nice, down to earth doctors who really do put their patients first (and have almost no home lives because of their approach). Of course, like anything, there can be good ones and bad ones, but it would not be fair to assume that they are all the same, and have the same motivations for becoming a doctor.

    Ancient Harvest Quinoa products are gluten-free, and at least back when Dave Schnorr owned the company all of the Quinoa was directly from the high Andes in Peru and Ecuador (I believe), where no wheat is grown or processed.

    Yes, it is gluten-free and well try to update our list: Open Original Shared Link

    I did get the full Alcat testing done, and received a very detailed report from them which contained about 4 items on the "severe" list that surprised me, but were easily avoidable as I didn't eat them often. The moderate list had items on it that also surprised me, including brown and white rice, sorghum, mustard seed, coffee, and other things, and I'm supposed...

    I would say 4 servings.

    More information about "Are Planter's Peanuts Gluten-Free?"

    Welcome to the forum! Your symptoms could be consistent with either celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, but since you've gone gluten-free already you can't be screened for this. You need to be eating gluten daily for at least 6 weeks before a blood test for celiac disease will be accurate. However, if the diet works for you an the symptoms go away...

    I think it goes without saying that it is terrible that a company would use a false gluten-free certification, and it's my hope that the GFCO sues them and puts a stop to it. My point about their old logo is that it's vague, and hard to protect legally. I'm not 100% sure they can stop companies from putting "GF" in a circle on their packages...it's just a...

    If the outbreaks are DH then it is possible that either something you are eating, or something you are using on your skin could be causing them...or both. The first step would be to make 100% sure that your diet is indeed gluten-free. Is it possible that a flour you are using is contaminated? Do you eat out? There are many possible ways gluten could...

    I'm not sure I've heard this question before, but it is an interesting one. Flipping through the pages could easily spread gluten around. I can only tell you what I would do in this case, which is take the book and cards outside and flip through the pages quickly a dozen or more times to get any flour out. Do the same with the cards. When using either in...

    There are pros and cons to an official diagnosis that everyone should consider. Once you are diagnosed you will be faced with higher life, and possibly health, insurance rates, for the rest of your life. Life insurance could also be harder to get. The pros to getting diagnosed is that you can get follow up testing and care that your insurance would likely...
