It’s great that you’re taking the time to research products carefully for your son with celiac disease—especially since accidental gluten exposure through skincare can be a real concern for sensitive individuals. Based on the ingredient lists you’ve shared, none of the products appear to contain obvious sources of gluten like wheat, barley, or rye derivat...

While I don’t have a specific personal recommendation, there are several ways to find a skilled GI doctor in Tucson who specializes in celiac disease. Check the Celiac Disease Foundation’s Healthcare Practitioner Directory for listed providers in Arizona: https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/find-a-healthcare-practitioner/ Also, local healthcare sys...

The white matter changes seen in celiac disease in the referenced study are likely multifactorial: Possibly linked to chronic inflammation, autoimmune activity, nutrient malabsorption, and brain hypoperfusion. Thiamine deficiency may contribute, especially in those with long-standing untreated celiac or poor dietary intake, but it's not the...

Scott Adams replied to NCalvo822's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It's possible that your doctor wants you to do an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis, and if that is the case that could be why they don't want you to go gluten-free before that procedure is done. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends... -
Yes, we've been tracking possible treatments for many years, and here is one of our more recent articles:

This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.): -
I'm not in any clinical trials, can I ask why you are so focused on this particular one? There are now several celiac disease potential treatment drugs undergoing clinical trials.

It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-fo...

Be sure to find a doctor who can treat you. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues...

Scott Adams replied to NCalvo822's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It’s completely understandable to feel blindsided by a celiac disease diagnosis, especially when you’ve never experienced any noticeable symptoms. Many people assume that celiac disease always comes with obvious digestive distress, but in reality, some people—like you—are asymptomatic, or what’s sometimes called “silent celiac.” Even without symptoms, the... -

European travel with Celiac Disease
Scott Adams replied to CJF's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
It's great to hear that the trip went well, and the general consensus I hear about gluten-free travel in Europe, including my own experiences, is that it is much easier done in comparison to traveling and eating gluten-free in the USA. -
Thanks for sharing this! Talk about frustrating! It is complicated enough to try to keep track of which products are safe, but the concept of the same product sold at 2 different stores--one that is certified gluten-free and one that isn't--that is exactly why having celiac disease is still so difficult, and it is so easy to make mistakes!

It's great that this business has celiac disease awareness and uses gluten-free oats! I wish more restaurants would make such simple changes, for example, if Asian restaurants switched to using gluten-free soy sauce, many (but not all!) risks would be eliminated for lots of their dishes. My daughter works at a Vietnamese restaurant where the owner is keenly...

Frustrated
Scott Adams replied to Jmartes71's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It sounds like you’ve been doing everything right—strictly avoiding gluten, managing food allergies, and advocating for yourself—yet you’re still dealing with severe pain, exhaustion, and other debilitating symptoms. The fact that your colonoscopy came back clear after 31 years gluten-free is a testament to your diligence, but it doesn’t erase the very real...
