    I don't see that stopping gluten would cause a rash for anyone. You might want to look at this site Open Original Shared Link

    So the simple explanation is - You eat gluten. It travels along and gets to your small intestine. For some reason, your small intestine feels it is an invader. but instead of making antibodies that "attack" the gluten, the small intestine cells make antibodies that attack itself. Sort of misguided, but that's what happens. Now these antibodies are in...

    Almond flour has a lot more fat in it than regular flours. It made out of nuts/almond which are fatty

    A couple of days gluten-free probably won't matter. but it doesn't work that way. It isn't gluten in your system" they are testing for. Gluten is not in your blood. It is the antibodies your body makes to gluten that the blood test looks for.

    You can supplement if you want to. IF you are low on iron or vitamin D - then some vitamins might be helpful. The treatment for Celiac disease is a strict gluten free diet. Some people need to cut out lactose for a few months, too. The villi that are damaged in Celiac are the part that helps you digest lactose. So, until they are healed, it might...

    First - there is no such thing as a "gluten allergy". Celiac is an autoimmune disease. Just so you understand. It could be Celiac or a different gluten intolerance. I am guessing you aren't going to get tested for Celiac disease. IF it were me, I would be more concerned that maybe there is still some sort of infection or parasite from the places...

    The thing is. They didn't have to say anything about gluten free food. They didn't have to put that mean-spirited dig in there at all. They could have just showed the awesome thing for serving food. People with food sensitivities would have just substituted gluten-free or peanut free food in their minds. Just like anyone would have said - I hate cucumbers...

    Yes, the second half of the list are possibly made on shared machinery. The ones labeled gluten free are not. And they are tested for Gluten.

    You should get the lymph nodes checked. You need to be eating a regular gluten containing diet to get the best & most accurate results for celiac disease.

    That isn't entirely correct. the gluten-free list is the stuff that they know is & test to be gluten-free and not made with gluten products. The other list is no gluten ingredients but not tested . Read the link for the explanation

    There was a study where they checked 2 weeks on a gluten-free diet , and antibodies were still going up . The study wasn't about that, so I think that is why they didn't go any further. So... looks like 2 months gluten free? If we think that antibodies are still being made at least two weeks gluten free.... account for the fact that most people need...

    Are you saying people posted using your profile? Please report that to Admin. I haven't heard of anyone wanting to steal someone's profile to post on here.... but I guess it could happen.

    These posts are from 2004. Also - are you saying you have 2 or more profiles? Message Scott/Admin and he can combine them.

    Did you have a question? Maybe talk to the doctor about the hernia and if it is actually causing these issues? If it is, ask the doctor about treatment/surgery?

    Eating a Dominos pizza with all the possible CC is something I would not do. I don't think having a reaction to it makes you "super sensitive".

    No problem with Chex. They are made completely differently. The controversy about Cheerios has to do with using oats that were not grown and harvested to be gluten-free. gluten-free Chex are not made with oats.

    Probably not. They usually don't go past the stomach if all they are looking for is reflux. they would need to go into the small intestine and take biopsies that will be checked for Celiac disease.

    I don't think they currently do medically approved Celiac testing ( last I heard). Open Original Shared Link

    That this not the same thing at all! It’s a rinse in the laundry. Even if it didn’t rinse all the way out, you aren’t trailing flour around the house. There is no reason for people to over react and make life harder. Most of us don’t want to live like that! If this sort of thing was a real Celiac concern, I would expect the Celiac experts...

    i can't imagine why it wouldn't be. but its not really important for a Celiac as you don't eat it

    This is still not the place for your politcal feelings. this is not relevaent to the topic.

    I have seen info that children's antibodies can drop very quickly. The lucky little guys!

    I have an ipad and iphone - so not sure if these exact games are available to you. I like a word game called word crossy. Also "1010" games are good to try. Picross style games can be fun

    Previous info on this thread is at least 10 years old. So people reading now, please don't go y that old info
