    I also take a B complex with vitamin C, as well as vitamins D and E. I also had issues with tingling and numbness in my feet, and it wasn't until I began taking Benfotiamine (a lab-made version of vitamin B1, also called thiamine), as wells as Magnesium Citrate, that my neuropathy issues have improved (over 25 years after going gluten-free, and taking multiple...

    My understanding of the OP, which could be wrong, is that their son was borderline with their celiac blood test results, but he was also on a mostly gluten-free diet. Now they want to confirm this, and the only way to do that would be a gluten challenge--eating a slice of wheat bread daily for at least 6 weeks. If my summary here is correct, then to...

    I was in my mid-twenties when I was diagnosed, and was also focused on gaining weight after losing some, so the main focus of my diet for around two years became rice, potatoes, meats, soy, as well as most vegetables and fruits. As @knitty kitty points out, there are now more focused diets that tackle many autoimmune issues that can be triggered by foods...

    Hello @Neytiri, it sounds like you're slipping down the conspiracy theory hole with regard to the vaccines, which could be risky to you and others. The more people who take the vaccine, the more likely everyone won't need to worry about getting covid-19 in the future. Polio also mutates, and it was very close to being totally eliminated in the 1970's and...

    It's great to hear that you are on the road to recovery after going gluten-free. The average time to recovery is 2 years, and this means being 100% gluten-free during that time, so it can take a while for some issues to resolve. Note that if you eat outside your home, for example in restaurants, the risk of cross-contamination is high. The rash could...

    Yes, it is hard to believe the new gluten-free Oreos are gluten-free, isn't it? They do taste exactly as I remember them.

    Please share with us their response, it could be helpful to others.

    So you didn't eat anything else yesterday? It seems strange that they would add "gluten-free" on their packaging if there is a chance of cross-contamination, but it's possible. Have you called them? That is what I would do. It would be interesting to hear their response.

    I've seen this study but am a bit skeptical of it's findings. While I do believe that people with celiac disease are more prone to have additional food intolerance issues, I don't believe that the cause is due to "molecule mimicry" or what this describes as "cross-reactivity." Additional food intolerances are likely separate issues, and they can be temporary...

    Does this chili powder have "gluten-free" on the label? Just curious, because I've never had issues with their spices.

    Welcome, and it sounds like you're on the right track by getting the blood screening for celiac disease. Please share the results with us when you get them. Your symptoms could definitely be due to undiagnosed celiac disease, among other things. It sounds like your doctor is on the ball, and scheduling the various tests necessary to rule things in or...

    More information about "Is Pho Gluten-Free and Safe for people with Celiac Disease?"
    Celiac.com 02/16/2021 - We get a lot of questions about various foods and dishes. One question we've seen a lot is about Phở, or Pho, as in the famous Vietnamese soup. More than a few of our readers want to know if Phở is gluten-free and...

    I just want to point out that doctors don't recommend taking potassium supplements unless they are prescribed by a doctor: https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/should-i-take-a-potassium-supplement

    That's interesting, and I've been taking turmeric for a couple of years now. Perhaps I'll increase how much I'm taking to see if it helps.

    Welcome to the forum. I'm not aware of a Zonulin test, but am aware of at least one company targeting a drug that regulates Zonulin levels that may one day help treat celiac disease.

    Yes, it can take up to two years to recover. Be sure your diet is 100% gluten-free, and this article might be helpful:

    Did you ever find a doctor there?

    How is this going?

    I've been to Eureka quite a few times, and you are right, it's a challenge to feel safe eating out. I do bring GliadinX whenever I eat out now, which had helped a lot, but when it comes to safety there is no substitute for brining your own food. I love Mexican food and can usually find something safe in a family run place. In Eureka I go to Oaxaca Grill Restaurant...

    Nobody replied...but how did the trip go? Perhaps you can share some info that will help others?

    There are probably too many GF snacks now to keep track of, which is good news for us!

    It looks great, I wish they had this near me in California!

    We had a traditional Chinese New Year dinner last night with rice, Taiwanese spinach, and fish (which is traditional for new year).
