  1. Hi Denise, The little article simply does not go into that kind of detail. The general Google searches I
  2. Dessa, Not being a doctor, I'm not sure, but could it be the peptonized gluten proteins just get into the bloodstream faster in the number one study group?
  3. Paula, I had one on my hip, that has gone away after cutting all the gluten out of my diet, and one very small one on the roof of my mouth. I kept picking at the one in my mouth, and when it started to go away it didn't disappear all the way. I think it built up scar tissue. I thought I had fibromyalgia at first also. Most all my symptoms have gone...
  4. Dessa, I found this by searching celiac.com: "AB- In two comparative groups of 50 children with cow milk proteins and 45 children with gluten intolerance retrospective analysis of initial symptoms was carried out. The initial symptoms of intolerance included: vomiting, loss of appetite, recurrent diarrhea, and weight gain disorders. These symptoms closely...
  5. KayJay and Lily, I also took the time to post this letter to Oprah: "The celiac disease epidemic is growing rapidly. I understand that such a story would upset many of your advertisers, but beer, bread and cookies, destroys the intestines of celiac victims. Greed is keeping this epidemic under wraps, and spreading the needless suffering from coast...
  6. This is a small article I found on ceilac.com about milk: "Dietary Proteins in Human Milk" "Proteins ingested by mother can appear in the breast milk. There is well known disease in breast fed babies called eosinophilic colitis, which causes eosinophilic infiltration in the large intestine of the babies and clinically presents as rectal bleeding. The...
  7. Dessa, 0 ppm is a great goal. I also try my best. It really is impossible to avoid foods that you

  9. Shanmac, You will find that most college towns have terrific health food stores. I

  12. Not only is a diet void of gluten healthier (for everyone) and cheaper, it is also good for traveling around the world. Every place I travel to has rice, fresh vegetables, and some kind of meat. I do not eat fruit, so I don
  13. Hi Meenucat, I put on weight with celiac disease, my vision suffered on and off with celiac disease, alcohol gave me heartburn, I had anemia, gut pains, etc., etc., etc.... Basically with celiac disease your body feels like it is falling apart. If you had something like amebic dysentery, or a tape worm, you might lose some weight. Been to India...
  14. Hi Jim, I went through the same situation in college. It was quite embarrassing. I found out that I have celiac disease by living outside of the U.S. Every time I came back here, and went on a gluten filled diet, I got really sick. It was a no brainer for me to eliminate gluten from my diet. You might give an Asian type diet a try to see what...
  15. Debmidge, When talking to my friends who have millions of dollars, they only think about how to get more money, period. I have two rich friends who tried to talk me into doing something illegal, to make money, simply because, as they put it,
  16. Thank you Sara, Real experience says it all.
  17. Hi VAGuy, Thank you for the follow up. I

  19. I'm just curious about Crohn's. After I started a gluten free diet I had diarrhea, off and on, for about four months. I have a feeling if I were to have been under a doctor
  20. While I was wintering down in the Yucatan, my friend Wes told me about this drug that show good results for healing Crohn's. He thought this drug might also be good for healing Celiac. He told me that the drug was developed for treating rheumatoid arthritis, and that the drug suppresses the immune system, giving the body a chance to heal itself. When...
  21. Natalie, I would suggest the gluten free diet before wasting too much time and money on doctors. A year ago people suggested that I get tested for parasites because of all my travels to third world countries. This winter, while down in Mexico, I had my blood and stools tested in a lab run by Italians. Because I am so careful about what I eat I knew what...
  22. Hi Heather, It's been a while since I broke up with my last girlfriend, but I seem to remember having problems. She liked deep kissing and other oral things that might of caused some problems.
  23. Hi Kerri, It does seem to take a bit of time. I'm starting to feel really good after about one and a half years. I do have to mention that there were quite a few accidents with gluten. Now I just cook all my own food in my own space, and cook from raw food. The only processed food I eat is canned salmon from Thailand (Chicken of the Sea). I figure the...
