    Would some of these pathogens have morphine-like sequences of amino acids? Also, which foods should I avoid if I want to keep away from morphine like substances. Don't soy corn and other foods also release opiods?

    T1 was around before milk was pasteurized. The a1 bcm7 opiod would have still been released I suspect.

    I tried 3 teaspoons of salt and drank 3 glasses of water. The salt was sea salt.

    So in reality, looking at the aforementioned study anyways, it seems that 'only occasional ' exposures were never taken into account. This was everyday exposure over 90 days. Surely a piece of cake (ie 1-2g) every day over 90 days would be MUCH worse (or would it really be??) than just 50mg gluten per day. The big question NOW is: Would a one-off exposure...

    Peggy needs to be informed, as others have said, about the risks and complications of celiac disease. I've been gluten free for about 12 years and have yet to personally know one other person who takes this condition as seriously as I have done over the years. I was young at the time, too - only about 8 years old. Do you have a celiac support network...

    Though I just looked at Open Original Shared Link and heart disease and type 1 diabetes incidence is right in line! Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't France have a lower incidence of celiac disease than most European countries? They drink more a2 milk and have less t1 diabetes than other places.

    I did hear somewhere that Lyme disease might be the player in RA and MS in a few places. Wasn't an outbreak of RA the way that Lyme was discovered?

    Would epigenetics be relevant to any of this?

    Isn't it more a case of bad memory cells being created in the bone marrow that respond to dendritic cells with the celiac genes attached to them? Denise Faustman said something about this in a video on t1 diabetes.

    Type 1 diabetes and celiac are related closely genetically, aren't they? Keith Woodford's book: Devil in the Milk is something I read recently and he and scientific papers say that A1 milk gave diabetes prone mice t1 diabetes and a2 milk didn't. I'm thinking bcm7 might be the possible third factor for celiac disease. That's all. Btw I'm not saying avoid...

    Enterolab is probably a better way to go at this stage. Their staff are very helpful and you may not need to reintroduce gluten for it. Of course, if the gluten free diet is working well, then why not just stay gluten free? More and more evidence is showing that wheat isn't a great food anyway.

    Here is a reply I received from them. Sounds pretty pricey to me... We have had individuals order our tests from Australia. It does take anywhere from 2-4 weeks for our collection materials to reach you there, but once you have received them and have collected your samples, you would need to locate a courier service that would guarantee 2-3 day delivery...

    If it were me I would stick to A2 milk only. Depending on where you are, it may be easy or difficult to find A2-only milk as almost all of our milk today contains both A1 and A2 forms of beta-casein. A1 beta casein has a structure that allows the release of opiods which may be the culprit behind your casein intolerance.

    I've heard lots about gluten and how it triggers the immune system to destroy the lining of the small intestine but only when it is ingested. I've heard quite a bit about casein lately (and pretty interesting stuff on beta-casomorphin-7 (bcm7) - an opiod-like fragment that gets easily released on digestion from A1 milk. Most of our milk today has a mixture...

    I think that one problem the researchers will have is that gluten affects more conditions besides celiac disease. Additionally, they give little mention of other gluten related disorders that do not include dq2 or dq8. But it is interesting. Does anyone here know when phase 2 begins?

    Have you done a CDSA (complete digestive stool analysis) test?

    You didn't specify the normal range of the blood test values. We were encouraged to go through this 11 years back but both Mum and I refused to follow our gastroenterologist's advice. Turns out we both possess the celiac gene (my mum a double copy) and also showed a positive response to the gluten free diet. My aunt developed type 1 diabetes at 9 years...

    An EnteroLab test might be in order for people like your Mum and Dad, depending on where you're located. A gluten induced autoimmune problem is something that is serious and should not be fooled with. I suggest your family reads some books on celiac disease that stress the importance for compliance by leading experts in the field. My mum and I are both...

    Was that just from a couple of gluten ingestions or were you keeping on eating gluten periodically while you had the infusions? (or was it just those three times?)

    Many doctors I've seen in my time seem to think it's ok for celiacs to cheat on the gluten free diet. Some say once every few months and others say once every year or couple of years. How long would it take to heal? I've heard it's around 3-4 weeks from a single 5 gram dose of gluten.

    I have a mild case of leaky gut syndrome as measured by a urine test. My doctor did a CDSA test (complete digestive stool analysis) and I didn't show any sign of parasites or yeast but my bifidobacteria was 0. E coli was on the upper end of the normal range and the rest were about mid-normal. I have had some discomfort between my ribs just 2 inches above...
