    More information about "Red Bull and Other Top Gluten-Free Energy Drinks"
    Celiac.com 02/02/2021 - We get a lot of questions about energy drinks, like Full Throttle, Monster, Red Bull, and others. Specifically, which brands of energy drinks are gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? We actually...

    Actually for a blood test you really need to eat around a slice of wheat bread a day for 12 weeks: If you are happily on a gluten-free diet, and it is relieving your symptoms, then do you really need to get an official diagnosis? The villi blunting, even after being gluten-free for so long, combined with your symptom improvement, might be enough for...

    You haven't mentioned how long you've been gluten-free. It can take months for recovery, and with DH it can take weeks for an outbreak to go away, which can be triggered by even tiny amounts of contamination.

    I wonder if your issue could be tied to low stomach acid, rather than high? I know this sounds counter-intuitive, but if the current approach isn't working, it's important to try others.

    Nowhere in the article does it say that raisins are high in oxalate, so I'm not sure where you get #1.

    It's great to hear that you are feeling better! I wrote an intro in that book, and yes, it's got some great info!

    I do still see the Nima Sensor being sold on Ebay and FSAStore.com, so I'm not sure if it isn't still being made.

    Yes, you would just ask for a celiac disease blood test. To me your symptoms are not likely to be caused by celiac disease, but it is a small possibility. I think a bigger possibility is that if you are taking statins for your heart condition muscle pain and weakness is a known side-effect, so be sure to discuss this with your doctor as well.

    I'll look into this, but my diagnosis isn't hemochromatosis, which was ruled out. Excess red blood cells is my issue...thank you!

    Because you've been gluten-free for two years now, and I will assume that you've been doing a very good job with your diet, probably isn't related to celiac disease or gluten sensitivity (unless you were getting regular contamination). So you've been to ear, nose & throat specialists, and they've found nothing? One concern, which they likely would...

    Celiac disease can cause a large variety of symptoms that can be side-effects of the reduced ability of your intestines to absorb essential vitamins and minerals from your foods. Muscle cramps and pain including Charlie horses in your legs and other areas can be symptoms. Do you have celiac disease, or have you ever been tested for it? It might be with...

    Sweet potatoes, although they are a very healthy complex carbohydrate, also contain a lot of fiber, which can cause gas/bloating in some people.

    Hello @Etoasty, welcome to the forum! Of course it is possible that a batch of their beans was cross contaminated, but so far I've not seen anything at all that would verify this. I monitor product recalls and post them whenever there is a recall.

    If you are outside the USA, for example in Europe, some "gluten-free" breads are made using a very low gluten wheat starch (under 20ppm). You may want to see if this is the case, and if so, change that.

    Celiac.com 02/01/2021 - Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) is poorly understood, particularly in terms of its neurological effects. A team of researchers looking into the matter first conducted a prospective postal survey to investigate...

    Only now are studies being done linking cognitive issues with celiac disease, but those of us who've been on this forum for years already knew this. Here is a recent article we did: and on Monday will be one on a Brain Fog study. Please let us know what you find!

    @Rafea are you on a gluten-free diet? I think in India a big issue might be contamination in spices and other things, for example I got some psyllium fiber powder from India and it tested positive for gluten.
  21. Scott Adams
    Yes, many people with DH get diagnosed that way and it’s the only way to get scientifically confirmed as having it.

    There is some evidence that a dairy intolerance can keep ttg levels high, as was shown in the case of this child:

    It takes some training to get used to it. I wasn't a big fan of it until I got past 40, but now love it. One thing I know, at least here in northern California, there are dozens of goat and sheep's milk cheeses and other products available, and there are some I've had that are much smoother and less sharp. Perhaps read through this to see if you can...
