Celiac Nutritionist

I know there has been a lot of suggestions to go and talk to you doctor already - so I am on repeat - to get the best / accurate results - gluten should be eaten prior to the scope being done. I hope that you can get/ or already have been able to get the appointment bumped up - keep calling the doctors office and keep pressing them to move your...

Hi, Lacey. Sounds like you have tried a lot. I just read the post that you have tried some of Dr. Axe's suggestions - that is great to see that they are helping! Have you done any specific work before with any of the other practitioners to specifically heal the gut? Keep us posted on the Dr. Axe protocol and don't hesitate to reach...

O I feel your Migraine pain! That was my one and only symptoms for YEARS and YEARS..... until one day finally it all turned into tummy problems and joint issues, (the list goes on and on...) Often you will notice your "main" symptom/s appear pretty soon after eating gluten (some its minutes, others its a day or so..). Following the proper diet...

How scary to watch your child go through what you have seen. I wish you huge luck with both biopsies. In urge before you and your daughter go gluten free - celiac can also be "silent" - and it is very common and normal to run in direct relatives- I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you and your other children (even your spouse) seeking appropriate testing...

I thought this would be a good resource for the newly diagnosed! What were the first celiac/ gluten free related pages you joined on Face book after being diagnosed???

Hi! I would LOVE to discuss this with you and see if anything ever came of it! (Being 6 years later, I wonder how things have changed...?)

Hi, Sterling. If it's possible - try and find out through your reports if there is ANY percentage of villi atrophy. Glad you are seeing a gluten consultant, is it at one of the celiac centres?

When you are in the field, your mind always goes to the worst because you "know to much" - use your knowledge to research and logically think things through (which is super crazy difficult to do when its ourselves). That is not very cool that she said she didnt see "anything" - but maybe nothing of "concern" to her means nothing? I hope your insurance...

That Tea blend sounds great I would caution that the Match may have the opposite effect of what we sometimes want green tea for (to calm and chill out with!) - Matcha can be quite stimulating!

Green Tea is amazing for a ton of things. For joints it can help to bring down inflammation in the joints. Whatever brand you decide on, you can always call and ask questions about processing, if it comes into contact with anything that contains gluten etc.

My rule is if it started with gluten or gluten in it - avoid it! Glad to see this labeling coming down the line.

I have spoken with New Chapter on this topic a lot, and unfortunately I love them but can not recommend them from anyone with Celiac Disease- You are best to avoid anything grown or fermented on wheat (although the fermentation process minimizes the amount of gluten drastically). Quinoa is generally recommended as safe, although some celiacs have reacted...

Do you have a good high speed blender, you can try and make a version of it at home! (Free of all the extra crap!) I LOVE home made almond and coconut milk also For Quinoa milk: Cook Quinoa Use one cup quinoa and 2-3 cups water, add 1-4 medjool dates, a pinch of himalayan salt, and cinnamon! BLEND. You can chose to leave...

Do you have a copy of your pathology biopsy report? Yes? What exactly does it state? (ie: does it have any atrophy or duodenitis stated on the report?) No? - Ask your doctor for a copy. Is the pathologist unfamiliar with Celiac Disease? (this could potentially effect the results).

They need to have taken at least 4-6 samples for accuracy. Many GI don't know this yet and only take one or two. Question both your Gastroenterologist and the pathologist to ensure that they are both familiar with Celiac disease. To respond to your question about if its still possible... maybe yes. If enough samples were not taken, it...
