ARCHIVED GliadinX Breaks Down Gluten in the Gut
Posterboy replied to Scott Adams's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
admin, The way I read that research was even those on a strict gluten free diet up to 50% of the time had been cross contaminated from gluten. Allergic living covered about how hard it can be to be gluten free unless you have a dedicated gluten free house. Obvisouly food is very social and it is easy to feel left out. I think it nice to... -
ARCHIVED GliadinX Breaks Down Gluten in the Gut
Posterboy replied to Scott Adams's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
GFinDC, I don't think this is the same enzyme that is in dpp-4 products. Medicalexpress just reported digestive disease week findings on this product. Open Original Shared Link They estimate it is 85% effective. They note this product was not tested in Celiac patients because even small amounts of gluten can cause long term effects... -
Ennis_Tx, Mainly the concept we actually have a lot of gluten free (yes they are packaged junk food) options but if the crowd moves to FODMAPs or what it considered the next food "demon" then if lectins are considered the new "gluten" it will be easy for our message that is this is a medical problem can gt lost on the next craze.

ARCHIVED Probable celiac, sore tongue!
Posterboy replied to Sarah9858's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Sarah9858, I used to have many of the similar issues. When I had "tongue" flare ups it was usually related to canker sores. Taking the Amino Acid Lysine can help with Canker sores so in theory it might help your "sore tongue". If you can stand it swilling with salt water it will help sores heal quicker. Here is a livestrong link about... -
ARCHIVED MTHFR gene defect - anyone familiar?
Posterboy replied to Mermaid's Mom's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Mermaid's Mom and Freeneyja, I had recently done some research on this topic and how low b-12 develops when people have low stomach acid.

ARCHIVED I read something so bizarre about dh
Posterboy replied to JaneWhoLovesRain's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
JaneWhoLovesRain, what is odder to me than that there is an older disease that Doctor's have forgotten that explains many of the same symptom's and doctor's do not even think about it today since the "War on Pellagra" was declared over a 100 years and why doctor's don't (at least in the West) think about it any more. Dr. Heaney wrote a nice online... -

KathleenH, I swear by MatteosPizza and they make National Delivery. I have been known to buy them by the dozen. Open Original Shared Link BellaMonica's is not a bad corn based crust.

ARCHIVED Gluten Ataxia confusion...
Posterboy replied to Mermaid's Mom's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Feeneyja, This will be a little long but I will try to be brief as possible. See this discussion thread that talks about how Pellagra is often diagnosed as other disease's today because doctor's rarely recognize it today in a clinical setting. Pellagra's is described as the 3 D's if you don't count the 4th D of death if it goes long enough... -

ARCHIVED Used to be super sensitive- and now not?
Posterboy replied to Carah's topic in Super Sensitive People
Carah, I think I am in that category. see my blog post where I discuss my experience and asked the same question "It has been 4 years is it now safe to eat gluten again" I think our stomach acid protects us against many of the foods/proteins we eat and when it is too low our autoimmune system gets activated. 70% of our immune is in the small... -

Posterboy replied to Jherm21's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Jherm21, The people on this board have all given you some good advice. I would suggest B- sublinguals because if you have low stomach acid or are taking PPI's your B Vitamins can still be absorbed through the blood vessels in your tongue. People taking PPI's often have to take much higher levels of certain vitamin/minerals because they absorption... -
