Gluten-Free Tinolang Manok (Filipino Ginger-Chicken Soup)
Scott Adams posted an article in Chinese & Asian
Celiac.com 06/13/2025 - Tinolang Manok is a treasured staple in many Filipino households, known for its soul-warming simplicity and nourishing properties. Dating back to pre-colonial times, this ginger-infused chicken soup has long been... -
Your doctor is most likely correct here, and if you had high tTg-IGA and villous atrophy you likely have celiac disease and need to be gluten-free. If regular small amounts of gluten get in your diet, it will prevent recovery. Eating out in restaurants is the primary source of such contamination.

Mostly trial and error and noticing the effects of the supplements over time. It's important to look at the bottom of my original post in this thread to see nutrients that can be toxic in higher does, especially over long periods of time.

As @trents mentioned, removing gluten if you have celiac disease would be key to villi recovery, and if you still are having issues trying to identify other triggers would be the next step, even though the additional intolerances will not likely contribute to villi recovery. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until ...

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 are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

I am just sharing my personal supplementation which has been developed over many years now. It's not a perfect fit for everyone, but some lingering issues I had, especially with gluten ataxia, did not go away until I went on this regimen. Good luck with finding experts to help you with this, it is possible, but my doctors were more or less totally useless...

Pepsid alternative
Scott Adams replied to milana's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The inactive ingredients list you provided includes pregelatinized starch, which can sometimes be derived from wheat, meaning it may contain gluten. It's best to call them to verify this. https://www.pepcid.com/our-products/max-strength-pepcid-ac-cool-mint -

I think that with the elevated antibodies found in past tests, and a negative biopsy, you are firmly in the NCGS camp. If symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would be confirmation that you should likely stay on the diet.

New diagnosed
Scott Adams replied to Kjmanchester's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Please explain more about the tests you took. What type of blood test was it? Which company offered the test? Also, there is no hair test for celiac disease--what was that test? Also, for your GP to test you for celiac disease you must keep eating gluten daily, and lots of it. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease...- 1 reply

Still unsure.....
Scott Adams replied to badastronaut's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy). -
Is your gluten-free diet strict? Do you eat out in restaurants? If so, you could be getting contamination, and over time that can slow recovery. You may want to get a follow up celiac disease antibody panel done to make sure that your levels have gone down since your last tests. Also, have you had various nutrient levels checked via a blood test, and...

Make up. Is Mary Kay gluten-free?
Scott Adams replied to Mynx's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I am not sure about that brand specifically, but this article may be helpful: -
First, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this—constant bloating and gas can be incredibly frustrating, especially when you’ve been so diligent with your gluten-free diet. Since nothing obvious has changed in your routine, a few possibilities come to mind: 1) Cross-contamination or hidden gluten (have you introduced new brands, eaten out more, or tried process...

Finding gluten-free and oat-free bars that aren’t overly sugary can be tricky, but there are some great options out there! For your little adventurers, consider GoMacro Kids bars (many are GF/oat-free and lower in sugar), 88 Acres Seed Bars (sweetened lightly with fruit), or The Good Crisp Company’s protein bars (grain-free and not too sweet). For homemade ide...

Using anti-inflammatories for symptom management after inadvertent gluten exposure can be a helpful short-term strategy, particularly for reducing discomfort like inflammation, pain, or swelling. However, it shouldn’t replace strict adherence to a gluten-free diet as the primary treatment for conditions like celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. While NSAIDs (...

Celiac.com 06/09/2025 - Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where the ingestion of gluten—a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye—triggers an immune response that damages the small intestine. The only current treatment is a str...-

You are right! The logo the have on their packages got me confused--it looks like they are less than 20ppm, not certified GF. Thanks for catching that! My brain also zeroed in on this "less than 10ppm" but I should have seen the rest...

For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:

Feeling of phlegm and thickness in throat
Scott Adams replied to nanny marley's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Many people with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease report throat-related symptoms, including a phlegmy, thick, or "sticky" feeling after gluten exposure. This could be due to inflammation, mild allergic response (like a wheat allergy), or even silent reflux triggered by gluten. Some also describe a "gluten globus" sensation—like something is stuck in t...
