  1. Celiac.com 08/27/2020 - Several thousand strains of bacteria live in the human gut. Some strains are beneficial, while others can promote disease. To make matters more difficult, many of these strains cannot currently be grown in laboratory...
  2. Yes, see this category for articles on this topic: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/liver-disease-and-celiac-disease/
  3. This is an older article written by a Ph.D. on distillation that may help skeptics better understand the process:
  4. 08/26/2020 - A new study on old and new wheat varieties shows no evidence for higher immunoreactivity in hybridized wheat strains. In fact, they found that rain changes immunoreactivity of wheat proteins even more than breeding. In...
  5. So I can't see the scale used for each of the tests you had, however, it's clear that you are high on several of them. Did you ask your doctor about these results? We can't diagnose you here, but it certainly looks like you've tested positive for celiac disease. Ask you doctor for clarification.
  6. Yes, be sure your diet is 100% gluten-free and you are not getting any hidden gluten. Bananas can help slow things down, as can white rice. You may also want to be sure you are getting enough fiber...consider pure psyllium fiber. Last, you may have additional food intolerance issues. Keep a food diary to see if you may have issues with soy, corn, eggs...
  7. Hydroxychloroquine has some very dangerous side effects, and should be avoided by most people.
  8. It is interesting that he won't eat cooked foods. Do the foods he avoids tend to be items that would normally have gluten? The items you mentioned that he won't eat seem to be items that would normally be off limits. I wonder if he fully understands the idea that gluten-free versions of them are safe? Also, here are some kids recipes: /celiac-disease...
  9. Celiac.com 08/25/2020 - A number of studies describe psychological disorders, in addition to other extra intestinal manifestations of celiac disease, such as fatigue, neurological conditions including headache and neuropathy. However,...
  10. To me it seems that you have some pretty severe absorption issues that you should discuss with your doctor. It would probably make sense for them to check various vitamin and mineral levels in your blood, and even follow up and do celiac disease antibody tests to make sure you've been 100% gluten-free. If you eat out you should stop doing that for a while...
  11. Well the article you post here basically complains that it is too sensitive and it detects Gluten at lower than 20 ppm… I think most people here would think that’s a good thing not a bad thing, and it says the following (which indicates that it is still a very good tool to have with you when there is really nothing else available like it): “Nima is subst...
  12. Nima sensors are definitely not a bust...they are highly accurate and there is nothing comparable to them on the market. This article has more info:
  13. Distillation removes all traces of grains...I don't doubt that recovering celiacs my not tolerate many things until their gut heals, however, drinking distilled spirits made from grains should not cause flattened villi or trigger celiac disease.
  14. Celiac.com 08/24/2020 - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has issued a final rule to establish compliance requirements for fermented and hydrolyzed foods, or foods that contain fermented or hydrolyzed ingredients, and that bear the...
  15. The current recommendation for children is to diagnose celiac disease without a biopsy, and it's unclear to me why the same recommendation wouldn't also be true for adults. More and more doctors are diagnosing celiac disease without a biopsy, so perhaps discuss this with your doctor. To do the biopsy you would need to continue eating gluten daily until...
  16. It sounds like it could be DH @NeverLikedRollercoasters, and you should probably get tested for it and celiac disease if you haven't yet been tested. To get tested you'd need to continue eating gluten daily until after the tests are done.
  17. Celiac.com 08/21/2020 - So who, exactly, should be screened for celiac disease? The guidelines and parameters for who and when to test for celiac disease change as new data becomes available. Based on recent study data, and recommendations...
  18. Does she have celiac disease? Is she on a gluten-free diet?
  19. Taking that many pills would not be very appeasing to many people...they carry a choking risk, there may be cellulose or other ingredients in the capsules that would likely make taking so many a turn off. There are many nutritional shakes out there that claim to do exactly what you are proposing. Ensure makes a line of them and they are at Costco. I...
  20. According to this list, lomotil is gluten-free, although I'm not sure how old this info is: https://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Glutenlist.htm
