    I think that the hookworm article rates #1! It is the one that I've related the most to others.

    NO! No hooksorms for this septuagenarian. I'd rather do without pasta with gluten than have any kind of worms in my digestive system. In the eight years since diagnosed with celiac disease, I have found lots of good things to eat. Although, I do miss the occasional chocolate eclair...I'm currently looking at comparing a number of diets to see which ones are best suited to the gluten-free problem and ease of converting recipes if necessary. There's a huge amount of books to wade through...a lot of them free through Nook, Kobo, iBooks, and Amazon to name a few. There are supplements, which I am taking to repair the damage done by gluten and to assist in digesting accidentally contaminated foods, but these are not a cure. Caution is my best recommendation. Here's to finding a cure!

    It's never a good idea for ANYONE to eat gluten/wheat, rye, barley anyway. Almost no one can digest it properly - and it's highly sprayed with glyphosphate today in the USA which may be a big part of the problem (it is now sprayed just prior to harvest to make harvesting easier!). I would never allow hookworms in my body! (go read Jon Barron's article on wheat and how indigestible it really is).

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    White vinegar or just plain vinegar are typically distilled, and, if so, are gluten-free. Distilled vinegar can be distilled from wheat, corn, potatoes, beets, wood, apples and many other things. Most in the USA are not made from wheat, but are instead made from corn, potatoes or wood, which are all safe (Heinz white vinegar is distilled from corn). Distilled vinegars that are made from wheat are probably gluten-free because of the distillation process described in Frederik Willem Janssens article on this site.
    Distilled vinegar made from wood are gluten-free. Wood-based vinegar is often the vinegar used in processed foods.
    Flavored vinegars are made with white, distilled vinegar, and flavorings are then added. Some of these may also not be gluten-free (the cheapest vinegars...

    Celiac.com 05/17/2013 - After earning the title of Miss Hoboken International in January, and Miss New Jersey International 2013 on March 9, celiac disease sufferer Jenna Drew will compete with young women from across the globe in the Miss International Pageant in Chicago this July.
    Asked about her opportunity to shine, Drew, 25, who works for Litzky Public Relations in Hoboken, said, “I am so thrilled…You don't get to do something like this every day. It's so exciting.”
    Drew was diagnosed with celiac disease in 2007, after a blood revealed her mother, who was battling cancer, to be suffering from the disease.
    Since 2009, she has been working with the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness and speaking publicly about celiac disease.
    To rise to the top the pageant contest, comp...

    The new cookie, called the Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Shortbread cookie, is made with real chocolate chips and real butter, and contains no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, no high fructose corn syrup, no palm oil, and no hydrogenated oils.

    Celiac.com 06/09/2015 - The Germans are picky about their beer. They're picky about what goes into their beer. They're picky about what's even allowed to be called beer.
    They have been since 1487, when Albert IV, Duke of Bavaria enacted the Reinheitsgebot, which means literally "purity order," but if often called the "German Beer Purity Law" in English.
    The Reinheitsgebot specified that the only ingredients that could be used in the production of beer were water, barley and hops. According to that standard, many gluten-free beers on the market today could not be sold as beer in Germany. They would be some kind of malt beverage.
    The law has changed over the years, and now permits wheat, for example, but beers brewed in Germany must still meet stringent regulations, including on...

      Severe Itching And No Rash

      Are you scratching hard enough to leave bruising -- the dark marks? But no rash? And worse with exercise? And no flaking? I had vitamin deficiencies that caused neuropathy - itching, buzzing, tingling sensations, that I would scratch until I left bruising. Many of the B vitamins, if deficient, can cause this itchy feeling without a visible...
