I think both systems have merits and faults, but in my opinion no citizen of any country should be denied health care, and it should be a basic human right, no matter your income.

This is a very difficult question to answer. The process for FDA approval could take 5-10 years or even longer. It could also fail during clinical trials, or lose funding (average cost years ago to get through clinical trials and FDA approval was $40 million!).

Does anyone here also have Afib
Scott Adams replied to Jhona's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
It’s frustrating how little awareness there is around celiac complications, even among doctors. Your discovery about histamine intolerance makes so much sense. It’s interesting how interconnected these reactions can be (heart arrhythmias from food? No one warns you about that). It’s great that antihistamines helped, and the ranitidine connection is a ... -
Does anyone else have seborrheic dermatitis
Scott Adams replied to CarolTN's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I think it couldn't hurt for you to be sure that your diet is 100% gluten-free with zero cross-contamination for a couple of months to see if that helps. If you're eating out you're likely getting some level of gluten in your diet. It's hard, but at least this would help you determine if gluten is the culprit. -

Gluten-Free at Taco Bell: A Celiac's Guide to the Menu (+Video)
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
You should avoid eating there if you don't trust the gluten-free claim that Taco Bell makes for their items on their website. Yes, there can be hidden gluten in some ingredients, but that does not mean that the company did not do their homework before making their gluten-free claim. -
It sounds like you’ve had a really rough week with persistent stomach issues after eating at that restaurant. Given your celiac diagnosis, it’s very possible that cross-contamination from the fries (since they weren’t cooked in a dedicated fryer) triggered a reaction, especially if they were fried in the same oil as gluten-containing foods. Your symptoms—diarr...

Most likely cross-contamination I believe.

Yes, this is true.

Gluten-Free Hair Mousse
Scott Adams replied to Linda Carey's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Try DevaCurl Frizz-Free Volumizing Foam for curls, Living Proof Full Thickening Mousse for long-lasting body, or Aveda Phomollient for a soft, natural lift. Budget-friendly options like Giovanni Natural Mousse or Herbal Essences Bio:Renew also work well. Avoid heavy ingredients and check for hydrolyzed wheat protein if highly sensitive. Always verify labels... -
You can find gluten-free foods in any supermarkets in Europe, so it's possible to not have to eat in restaurants much.

I typically bring my own food on flights and trains, and haven't had any issues doing that, although I never use ice packs. At the very least it's a good idea to have backup GF bars and trail mix whenever you travel.

Confused about test results
Scott Adams replied to KikiSa's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Honestly, with a 10x or higher level on a TTG-IgA score, there is really no other explanation but celiac disease, at least in my humble opinion. -

Inhaler problem

So there can be gluten in pain meds, but I've never heard of it in anesthesia before. Do you have any more info on this claim, perhaps a link to a source? -
Confused about test results
Scott Adams replied to KikiSa's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive... -
The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal, although this may not be the case for everyone.
