    Good article, Scott. Nutrients are added to wheat flour. If your diet is deficient in them the problem is compounded by a GFD, so a diet of processed foods without wheat could lead to vitamin deficiencies. That does not mean wheat is good for you.

    Here is a list of the vitamins I am taking and am doing well on. It is based on getting enough of all the essential vitamins up to the minimum RDA while staying well within the safe range, even counting what I get from food. There are nine specific to Celiac, the rest are general population deficiencies...

    I counted eighteen 'mysterious symptoms' that improved once I started gluten-free. Some were immediate, within weeks, others took longer. There are around 200 symptoms that show improvement with a gluten-free diet, not necessarily only Celiac. You can Google it. Your doctor suspects it and you've...

    We are constantly bombarded with advertising of the Cool People eating wonderful gluten based foods; it is hard to resist. Of course the next commercial has someone dancing and smiling because they're on the newest diabetes medicine. When you get that craving, remember how limited you felt when you...

    I was a mouth breather my entire life, doctors said it was something I just had to live with. At 63, I awoke every two hours to either breath, pee, or from back pain. Since starting gluten-free, my prostate has shrunk, back pain is gone and I am now a nose breather, among other improvements in my...

    More so with a gluten free diet, and even with a "healthy choice" diet, we are susceptible to numerous vitamin and mineral deficiencies that testing will not reveal. We assume that because we are aware, we are not deficient. It took more than six months of making sure that every day I ate more than...

Their conclusion: " At age 5 years the cumulative prevalence of celiac disease was 12.1%, and there was no significant difference...
