ARCHIVED Just Trying Gluten-Free Way
mcat1234 replied to corky21's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Perhaps there are other culprits. I found out a few years ago that using Splenda aka sucralose greatly bothers my acid reflux. I ran out of it and did without for awhile and noticed that my acid reflux was doing much better without it. I am always surprised by the products that include it as an ingredient.

ARCHIVED Where Do You Get Your Headaches?
mcat1234 replied to jmrogers31's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

I also have found that if I drink too much tea, I can get headaches there too. It doesn't matter whether it is decaf or not. Im not sure if it is from the tannins in tea or if it is just the brand.

Date: 9/8/2011 Hello, I received my results from Enterolab today. It says that I have two gluten sensitive genes. I think they are the DQ2 and DQ6, but I am not sure because this is confusing. I do have health problems that I think might be related to gluten sensitivity. I have been researching this for months now. I am curious if anyone else had the... -
ARCHIVED Husbands Enterolab Results
mcat1234 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am new to this forum and am looking for some thoughts on my husbands Enterolab report, which I have posted below. He is 53 years old and was diagnosed with osteoporosis at 50 years old. His mother is 87 and has been battling osteoporosis for about 20 years. With all of the vitamins and pills she takes it is still the worst case of osteoporosis that her...
