    Celiac.com 06/09/2016 - If you're a fad gluten-free dieter, especially one who hasn't been diagnosed with celiac disease, then definitely don't plan on preaching your gospel to Anthony Bourdain.
    AdWeek recently spoke with the celebrity chef, writer and host of CNN's Emmy Award-winning series Parts Unknown.
    Adweek talked to Bourdain about everything from Chick-fil-A to Frito pie, to, yes, gluten-free dieters. During the interview, Anthony Bourdain let loose with a few doses vitriol regarding trendy subjects of gluten-free diets, and juicing.
    Of gluten-free proselytizers, he says: "Look, before you start boring me to death at a party about how you got gluten-free, you know, if you think you have a disease as serious as celiac disease, shouldn't you see a f#&$^%# doctor before...

    In a recent interview to the Times, Berdych shared some lesser-known aspects about his career.
    The Czech player is know for his considerable powerful serve and forehand, and solid all around game.

The gluten-free diet has helped him put on a bit of weight and achieve a comfortable tournament weight of 95 kilos.
    Berdych joins Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic, among other top players who are eating gluten-free.

    Celiac.com 08/25/2016 - Star Trek and Beyond star Zoe Saldana recently revealed that she has been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
    Hashimoto's thyroiditis attacks and destroys the thyroid cells, and is the most common cause of hypothyroidism in the U.S. Signs and symptoms of Hashimoto's disease include constipation, fatigue, sluggishness, depression, muscle weakness, pain and stiffness in the joints, unexplained weight gain, and a hoarse voice.
    It is very important for people with Hashimoto's to avoid gluten completely to prevent thyroid damage. As a result, Saldana and husband Marco Perego have both eliminated gluten and dairy from their diets.
    Several studies actually link Hashimoto's disease and gluten intolerance, including a 2003 study...

      And yes, of course it's better to know and we will adjust. It's just, he's 7 and in our house we can control what he gets. But he plays soccer 3 times a week and in the changing room the boys share candies. I can and will tell him not to accept them any more, but "mistakes" will be made. I'm really burdened by the potential social impact...

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      Thank you for your reaction. The reference values are both "<10", although I found a medical paper from Netherlands (I'm Belgian) who use the same values and there the see a positive daignosis as twice more then 200 and a positive biopsie. I didn't see how to change this in my original message, sorry...

      Hi Kathleen Welcome to the forum. I am based in the UK so I am just picking this post up before our US based moderators appear. I think they will want to know the lab values of both of the figures you have provided us with (min/max reading) as they tend to vary - could you post those for us, please? We see a lot of coeliacs who also have helicobacter...

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      Hi all, I'm very new at this and 'this' has been quite a rollercoaster ride. Last august my 7 year old son suddenly had these colic like pain attacks that would come a few times per day/night during 10 days. Because they were that bad and because our older daughter had her appendix taken out at 7, we ended up at ER twice to have him checked...
