Little Northern Bakehouse, who is also a sponsor of Celiac.com, makes outstanding products: -
We will be doing a summary, and this is very interesting news. Certainly any available option like Tryptophan that could help those with celiac disease heal up faster, and perhaps even help maintain a healthy gut, is good news.
-
I believe that Manischewitz does make gluten-free mixes, but you would need to read the ingredients/label to be sure. Also, quinoa might be a good substitute for the barley.

There is a company that can send you a home test kit that runs ~$99: https://www.imaware.health/

Of course we can't officially diagnose you with just this image, however, it does look a lot like the small spot of DH that I had on the back on my hand (until it was horribly sunburned and never came back!). It would be important for her to get a celiac disease blood screening, and see a dermatologist for a skin biopsy that looks specifically for DH...

Itching!!!
Scott Adams replied to Sarah Fisher's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yes, it would be helpful if you could share your blood test results. You may have recorded antibodies just below a level the indicates celiac disease, but this could still mean that you are gluten sensitive. Knowing more about your results would be helpful. -
We do not know, but will post a summary of any research that follows this up.

“Non-celiac disease”
Scott Adams replied to Luna21's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Does it say what type of test this was? Was it ttg? Also, is the normal range for this test shown? Knowing these would be helpful. -
Shampoo & Conditioner
Scott Adams replied to Wisconsin woman's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yes, I agree, since there are so many that are now labelled "gluten-free," why not just go with one that you can be sure won't cause you any issues? -
Although the standard spiel from medical doctors would be to recommend getting a formal diagnosis, having DH I can fully understand why you might not want to go that route, due to the fact that DH symptoms can be unbearable for most. In the end it is really your call on whether or not you need a formal diagnosis to stay gluten-free.

Are McDonald's Latte and Coffee Drinks Gluten-Free?
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
In the USA natural flavoring is considered gluten-free, and it would need to include wheat on the label if it contained wheat: -
DH looks like tiny clear blisters that are super itchy, and usually surrounded by redness. If you can't get to a doctor and get a celiac disease blood panel, another option is ordering an online test kit, but keep in mind that to be tested for celiac disease you must continue eating gluten daily until your tests are finished.

Seasonal Allergy Symptoms + More
Scott Adams replied to KatieM's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had severe seasonal pollen allergies until I was diagnosed when I was around 27. I used to have to take both food and pollen allergy shots. My nose was more or less permanently clogged during much on my youth, but I didn't have obvious symptoms from the food allergies, beyond the constant nasal drainage issues. My allergist told me back then, long before... -

Are McDonald's Latte and Coffee Drinks Gluten-Free?
Scott Adams posted an article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Celiac.com 10/21/2020 - We get more than a few question about McDonald's Coffee and Latte Drinks. Specifically, are McDonald's Coffee and Latte Drinks gluten-free, and safe for people with celiac disease? Plain coffee is gluten-free... -
Peripheral Neuropathy
Scott Adams replied to Mwutke's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Peripheral neuropathy is a fairly common side effect in those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, and when this is the case it's called "gluten ataxia" or "gluten neuropathy." It probably would make sense for you to get a celiac disease blood screening before going gluten-free (you can't be tested for it after going gluten-free). The good news... -

I'm having issues with my 15 year old daughter who is sneaking gluten with her friends once in a while. For her it's mostly about peer pressure and wanting to fit in when certain things are served at a friend's house, or after a soccer practice or game. We've talked about it extensively, yet it continues. I've gotten her to take with her and use GliadinX...
