    Oldturtle, yes, I have to say, the evidence iS strong. Not once in all my time in China did I experience a gluten reaction. There were no ‘accidents’ —except when eating products from the west. For example, my students and fellow teachers and friends lived to receive chocolate bars as gifts from home so I would bring a box, and if I succumbed to the t...

    Oldturtle, that makes perfect sense about the antibodies. I was thinking it applied to my situation and it does but there’s another factor to consider. Long story but important to read.

    I went off gluten, and the dh didn't go away but got gradually worse. Then I went off dairy completely and the dh cleared right up. It hasn't come back, and I've heard that dairy is not much different from gluten on the molecular level, so the immune system is just being overly protective I guess. After a year I re-introduced dairy gradually and the dh...
