I think if you make a meal using whole foods that are unprocessed, this should be easy, just do not add any salt/sodium to the meal and instead use spices or spice mixes to add flavor. I know this answer may not be what you're looking for, but something as simple as steamed broccoli, a baked potato, and a piece of salmon fried in a pan would likely fit the...

Severe leg pain
Scott Adams replied to Peter-b's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yes, it might be a good idea to get your vitamin levels checked. I have a similar issue with my right leg that is related to restless leg syndrome (RLS), and my B12 levels are actually high, but I've been supplementing B1 lately and it seems to help with the tingle/needle feeling, which, in my opinion, triggers the RLS, at least in my case. -
AN-PEP Enzymes
Scott Adams replied to DaveHike's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Note that although there is great research that shows AN-PEP can break down gluten in the stomach, before it reaches your intestines, it is not meant to be used to allow someone to cheat on their gluten-free diet. People with celiac disease must maintain a 100% gluten-free diet, and I say this even for those with gluten sensitivity. That said, the best... -
IBS
Scott Adams replied to Darla Mason's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Unless you have an allergy to cow's milk you should be able to try this out for a short time to determine if you can tolerate it. It is gluten-free, so I assume you are maintaining a gluten-free diet but also have an issue with cow's milk. It wasn't clear from your post exactly what your concerns and issues are. -
Celiac disease can manifest symptoms in many ways, and the most common ones show up in the gut, skin, and brain/nervous system. The only way to be really sure would be to get a blood test for this, but that would involve going back on gluten again daily for 4 to 6 weeks. If you are certain that your symptoms are much better without gluten, and can...

General info
Scott Adams replied to Zane Davis's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I've definitely heard of many women who claimed that they began having symptoms of celiac disease once they got pregnant, although I've not heard this specifically regarding the taking, or stopping of taking, birth control pills. There are many known environmental triggers of celiac disease, including but not limited to certain viruses. It would not... -
I would contact your local food banks and churches that may offer food help. Also, you may want to contact the CDF www.celiac.org.

Gluten free flour mix by Connie Sarros
Scott Adams replied to Linda G's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I think she has a standard one that is probably in her books, but I see a reference to it here: *Gluten-free Flour Mixture: The flour mixture I use is a combination of rice, potato starch, tapioca and garbanzo bean flours, cornstarch and xanthan gum. If you are allergic to any of these products, alternative flours may be substituted. And here... -
Although this article is older, it still indicates that even though you are very unlikely to have celiac disease if you don't have the genetic markers for it, you can still have gluten sensitivity: Also, since your 23andMe tests were done there have been more genetic markers linked to celiac disease, so it a newer test may give different results. Let...

Besides eliminating all gluten forever, many with DH must also cut back on foods high in iodine for good as well.

Aveda Rosemary mint body wash
Scott Adams replied to ktmpkns's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
At a glance: https://www.aveda.com/product/5197/16409/body/rosemary-mint-hand-and-body-wash I don't see anything in the ingredients that would include gluten. -
Tabs of acid and gluten
Scott Adams replied to Shamangirl22's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I think it's fair to say that these drugs are powerful, and have powerful effects. Psilocybin, the psychoactive ingredient in mushrooms is now being studied by several groups as possibly the most power anti-depressant drug known to man (one positive "trip" could, in some people, relieve depressive symptoms for years), however, I've also seen people and heard...
