    The issue is that it does vary by country and genetic groups, so averaged out it may be somewhere near this number, but there really isn't enough data that has been collected worldwide yet to determine the actual number.

    Vaccines do not trigger autoimmune diseases, and no studies I've seen (I've summarized and read every study on celiac disease done since 1994), have indicated that vaccines have been linked in any way as a trigger of celiac disease. You claim that your celiac disease is not related to your genetics, but have you had a genetic test done? If so, what are the...

    Although some celiacs, perhaps up to 10%, cannot tolerate oat in their diet (this is considered a different issue than celiac disease), if they are labelled "gluten-free" in the USA they must test under 20ppm. So they should be gluten-free and safe for a celiac disease diet.

    I just want to share the category where our articles on thyroid issues and celiac disease reside: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/thyroid-pancreatic-disorders-and-celiac-disease/

    I think they may mean type 2, and be using the Roman numerals here, as I've never heard of type 11. We have many articles summarizing new research and treatment of refractory celiac disease here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/refractory-celiac-disease-collagenous-sprue/ but the main thing...

    I would re-check your diet to be sure that it is really 100% gluten-free, as your symptoms do sound very close to what happens when some celiacs eat gluten. I'd also keep a food diary to see if there is any connection to other foods that many celiacs can be intolerant with, for example oats, eggs, corn, soy, nightshades, etc. You may need to do an elimination...

    You should likely keep eating gluten until all testing has been completed, so I am not sure why there is a mixed message about that, but perhaps you can push them to speed up the endoscopy date? Also, you said: But if 20 is the cut off for a positive celiac disease test, and you scored 34, I would not classify this as a mild to moderate positive....

    @Misslee Waving a book around in the video is a classic fallacy in an argument called "appeal to authority," and to say that I don't read is insulting, especially given the number of articles I've written or edited on this site, which now stands at over 5,300. No credible doctors are against vaccinations, especially given the ~1-4% death rate from covid-...

    On this page it says: "ZzzQuil PURE Zzzs Kidz Liquid Melatonin is drug-free & non-habit forming, contains no artificial flavors, is free of high-fructose corn syrup, gluten-free, lactose-free, and dye-free." https://www.zzzquil.com/en-us/product/kids-zzzs-melatonin-liquid-sleep-aid

    It's difficult to say for sure, but what typically happens is that the antibodies they are trying to measure drop on a daily basis as soon as you go gluten-free. Normally you need to eat gluten daily until you finish all tests for the results to be accurate. All you can do now is wait and see. Did you feel any better on a gluten-free diet?

    I don't believe that a vaccine gave you celiac disease, and there is no scientific evidence that vaccines cause any autoimmune disease, including celiac disease. If you make a claim like this you need to back it up with evidence. Sorry but Dr. Berg's video doesn't cut it. Besides a possible coincidence in the timing of you getting a vaccine and celiac disease...

    I just want to (defensively!) add that our board is a great place to gather knowledge, we also summarize all of the latest research and other general interest info into articles, and after one gains more knowledge helping others is a great way to: 1) Use your new knowledge; and 2) Help you feel better during this covid times. After all, it's hard to do the...

    This is misinformation, as nearly all commercially produced blue cheeses are gluten-free. This article has more info on this:

    They are gluten-free as per their label, but there are some sites/groups/people who do not believe in the patented technology that General Mills created to remove the rogue kernels of wheat, rye or barley that can get mixed into the oats, as they are often grown in the same fields, or transported in the same containers. There are also some celiacs, perhaps...

    @Ivana many others are also anxious, especially in countries with high covid-19 rates like the USA. It appears that we are in the "home stretch" with regard to the vaccine that is now being distributed, but in reality we're currently in the most dangerous period of covid. On the positive side of really high celiac blood test results, the latest research...

    Depending on the amount of damage to the gut, which also takes an average of 2 years to heal after going gluten-free, it's interesting that this time frame is nearly identical. I wonder if the leaky gut condition, and other "non-gluten" proteins passing through the gut, are what keeps the antibody levels higher? I suppose it is more likely that leaky gut...

    I agree, and we recently did an article on this topic:

    Canyon Bakehouse makes great products, as does Little Northern Bakehouse (full disclosure, but are site sponsors).

    @canadiangeek, if it were caused by gallstones it would happen even when you don't eat gluten. You mentioned that it happens to you when you accidentally eat gluten, so my guess is that in your case that is what causes it. This article might be helpful:

    Interesting, do you remember where you found this info? It's probably overdue to do an article on this topic, since it does come up so often.

    Generally speaking increasing carbohydrates, and decreasing fat and protein in your diet should cause you to gain more weight. Sitting on your butt to much like I do also helps 😄. You can also gain more muscle mass/weight if you go on a high protein diet and exercise more, but honestly, the higher carb route would be a better bet until you at least ge...
