    People can try stopping it like I did and if the flare ups stop, then that's a strong clue. I never said all people should stop. Stop being so critical of my point here. I DO have celiac disease and nightshades do cause me horrible flareups. I have a medical background and 2 degrees. I am trying to help people figure out what may be harming them. Go...

    Hi Mary Jean, if you can youtube, Dr. Steven Gundry is on youtube. (He is a cardiologist. Even though he doesn't have celiac disease, he also does a lectin free, grain free, gluten free diet.) In the search bar, just write in Dr. Steven Gundry Plant Paradox diet or lectin free diet. I forgot to mention, I also was anemic. I am no longer...

    Some people are "gluten sensitive" and others who have celiac disease and DH react differently. I thought I had no problems with potatoes for years actually. Until my skin burst out with huge blistery welts years later. But, every person is different. Same thing with tomatoes and chili peppers. Glad you have no problem with them.

    Russ,  I have used the Gundry diet and it definitely worked for me.  You shouldn't make comments like "This is false" when it has helped thousands of people.

    You are doing those who may very well benefit from this diet (as I did) a disservice.  You may not believe what he said.  That's fine, but for those of us out there who did this diet (avoiding lectins), it worked.

    And he has also published that yes, you can pressure cook some things that can remove "most" of the lectins and you can try peeling the skins and removing the seeds.  That did not work for me.

    Don't say things like "That's false."  You are putting down fellow celiac members that way.  Not a good choice.

    Hi Scott, I absolutely stay away from grains. As far as potatoes, they are a big "no no". They fall int the "night shade" family. Night shades have lectins which are very harmful to people with autoimmune disease. You can look up "The Plant Paradox" by Dr. Steven Gundry. He explains in great detail on lectins are bad for our intestines. You may...

    See if you can find Cassava pasta. No lectins. It is made from a root, so it is safe. Also, if you eat beef or chicken, make sure it is "grass fed" beef or chicken that organic. If animals eat grains, it will pass on the grain to your system. Hope this helps. I know how hard this is. Believe me. I was so very sick and swollen, migraines, muscle and...

    This is a serious disease. PLEASE look up Dr. Steven Gundry and his book, The Plant Paradox. I was so very sick 3 years ago. I was eating "gluten free", however, learned that with this autoimmune disease, you must stay away from grains and lectins! I his book, he gives a list of what is safe to eat and what is NOT safe. I have followed his diet and have...

    With Celiac disease, people should NOT be eating French fries made with potatoes. Potatoes are a night shade and they cause inflammation. Sweet potatoes are "roots" and they are safe. Please also remember that night shade vegetables have LECTINS which will cause flare ups in people with autoimmune disease. Gluten is just ONE TYPE of lectin. So,...

    You might try staying away from anything with lectins. Gluten is just "one type" of lectin. Go and check out Dr. Steven Gundry's "Yes and No list"...I followed this diet (lectin free) and man, what a difference.

    Hi there! I hope this helps you. I have Celiac disease and DH for 15 years now. I am 65. I was on a very strict "gluten free" diet for years and kept having setbacks. (That's what I call them). I had daily migraine headaches, terrible rash, muscular pain, joint pain, loss of balance, hair falling out, and the list goes on. Oh yes, and may I...

    Hi there...I have DH and Celiac disease...for over 15 years now. As we know, Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease. I was on a very strict gluten free diet but kept getting setbacks, (rash, muscular pain, joint pain, migraines, loss of balance). Keep in mind now, gluten is one type of LECTIN. So, I went on a LECTIN free diet and within weeks...

    Oh I totally agree with you! Biopsies sometimes come back negative...I have researched...and I decided not to have a biopsy because I will get so sick if I eat gluten and that's what they require before the biopsy. I agree with you not wanting to subject your daughter to that. I would keep her on a strict gluten-free diet (not just food...but soaps...

    Hi there...Not sure...I have had to go through the same process trying to figure out how I got zapped with gluten...and it's no fun. Here's a question...are you being careful with other products that have gluten, such as shampoo, hair color, body wash, toothpaste, make up, and things like that??? Lots of those products have gluten, so beware. Also...

    Hi there, I have had DH for years now...was very careful with my food...made sure it was gluten-free. Here's the thing...I kept having outbreaks of the rash & blisters...then realized my body wash had gluten! My hair color and shampoo also had gluten...everything has to be checked when it comes to ingredients...not just food. So...just wanted...
