Did anyone here have a problem digesting gluten-free substitutes at the beginning? I was wondering if they're bothering my dad because he hasn't healed yet and maybe later on he'll be able to handle them. And does anyone have any gluten-free beers they can recommend? I don't think I'm gonna convince my parents to give our dogs real food, but I'm sure...

The good news is, my dad says that he's planning on sticking to the diet. The bad news is, he started smoking again after quitting 3 years ago. Before he got the test results he said if it was cancer he was going to start smoking again but I guess this was bad enough to make him want to do it anyway. My mom's furious and normally I'd be upset too but after...

I currently take digestive enzymes and I get probiotics through yogurt and cheese, but if I got rid of dairy that would stop. I tried taking a pill form of probiotics and it was awful, never again.

My dogs would definitely be healthier on a primal-ish diet (well, we'd be too) but I still live with my family so I don't have a choice in whether or not we have gluten-free dog food. If it's more expensive I doubt they'll buy it. I'm barely going to be able to afford produce and meat...I'm not going to be able to afford to make anything close to what I love...

Thanks everyone, I made an appointment to go get tested soon! There's one other thing I'm not sure about though and it would be awesome if someone could clarify it for me. From what I've read, even a minute amount can do damage, and I've been reading threads about people buying gluten-free shampoo just in case some got into their mouths while showering...

My father is 38 and was just diagnosed with celiac disease. He developed polyps and ulcers and the doctor says he'll get better if he abstains from gluten. He never had the really obvious signs of the disease, but in retrospect there are definitely a few things that can be attributed to it, like fatigue and random rashes and mouth ulcers. Apparently all of...
