    You must realize that going backwards in time, 100-150 plus years ago, when the human lifespan was roughly half as long on average than it is now, people were often infected with hookworms as well as many other chronic diseases and parasites, for example tuberculosis, trichinosis, tapeworms, etc., were also very common, but this does not mean that we need...

    I'm not making any claims about what your issue is regarding you issue with saltiness, I only wanted to dispel the claim that histamines have a salty taste. Most foods, particularly in the USA, are in fact, too salty. The spike in overly salty foods that has occurred in the USA since the 1950's junk food explosion has caused many foods to be overly salty...

    This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests...

    This is another study that dispels the myth that glyphosate is safe: "Pesticides and prostate cancer incidence and mortality: An environment-wide association study": https://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cncr.35572

    I agree with @RMJ and unfortunately different celiacs have different trigger levels for gluten, and some celiacs have little or no symptoms at all when exposed to gluten.

    In people with celiac disease, gluten can trigger migraine headaches, and we have a category of research summaries on this topic: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

    They are made in a dedicated gluten-free facility, but anything is possible. It looks like their product contains Xanthan Gum, is it possible you have issues with Xanthan Gum? https://www.maninis.com/products/4-cheese-tortelloni/ This article might be helpful:

    There are many different anti-inflammatory drugs that are effective in treating ulcerative colitis, have you tried any?

    So keep eating gluten daily, lots of it, until all celiac disease screening is completed. A negative biopsy would not rule out NCGS. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

    Ultimately you have to be responsible for your own health, regardless of how it might affect others, and this is especially true if you have both celiac disease and a severe nut allergy. Eating out is the most common source of gluten contamination, even in restaurants that have gluten-free menus. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean...

    It looks like you had a positive blood test for celiac disease, so the next step could be an endoscopy to confirm celiac disease. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

    It is definitely possible for you to be sensitive to maltodextrin, even it if is gluten-free. In the United States, maltodextrin is occasionally made from wheat, but it is still considered gluten-free by FDA standards. Here’s why: Why Maltodextrin is Gluten-Free: Highly Processed: Maltodextrin, regardless of its source (corn, rice, potato, ...

    Dr. William Parker says you can't know ahead of time how many helminths to infect yourself with, and taking too much can make you "very, very sick," and it can cause a lot of the same symptoms that might be trying to treat, such as anemia, mental fog, severe gastrointestinal pains, muscle aches, etc., and being infected by too many can cause an inflammatory...

    Miso can be gluten-free, but it depends on the ingredients and how it's made. Miso is a fermented paste made primarily from soybeans, salt, and koji (a mold used for fermentation). Some varieties also include grains such as rice, barley, or wheat. Rice-based miso is typically gluten-free. Barley or wheat-based miso contains gluten and is not safe for those...

    It sounds like you’re navigating a lot of testing and trying to make sense of your results. While I’m not a medical professional, I can share some insights that might help. A calprotectin level of 2500 is quite high and typically indicates significant inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. This could be due to a variety of conditions, including cel...

    There is no way to know for sure when an autoimmune disease might be triggered in someone, and this is just a theory that you might want to bring up with your doctor if your dry eye issues are prolonged. Of course you may not have Sjogren's, but it might be worth checking into if your issues are ongoing.

    Great advice, as having one autoimmune disease makes you more vulnerable to getting others.

    Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.

    We at Celiac.com believe that raising more awareness for those with serious food allergies--especially about why it's not a good idea to use top allergens like peanut flour in gluten-free products in an unexpected way (for example not sprinkled on top where the peanuts would be visible)--may help prevent it from happening again.
