About Me
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.

Certified gluten free oats
Gluten-free oats can cause villous atrophy in people with celiac disease who are sensitive to oats (~10% of celiacs). While oats are naturally gluten-free and often safe for most individuals with celiac disease, a small percentage of people with the condition are sensitive to avenin, a protein found in oats that is structurally similar to gluten. For these... -

Certified gluten free oats
This thread is confusing. Apart from any kind of oats, whether gluten free, certified gluten free or just regular oats, you should have been consuming plenty of gluten for a period of weeks leading up to the day of the endoscopy. Consuming wheat products would have been the best choice as wheat is the grain highest in gluten. Once you begin to remove gluten... -

Still unsure.....
Dear forum members, I’m still trying to find out whether or not I actually have gluten sensitivity or not. Recent blood test showed a slightly elevated Bilirubine and Lipase but an abdominal ultrasound showed no problems with the liver or pancreas. My zinc and folic acid where both too low. When I eat gluten I get a lot of mucus with my stool and most o... -

Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?
Welcome to the forum, @robingfellow and @Mr-Collateral531, I also had to have my gallbladder removed in emergency surgery. The gallbladder uses lots of thiamine vitamin b1 to function. The gallbladder cannot secrete bile if it doesn't have sufficient thiamine. Thiamine provides our muscles and glands energy to move and secrete needed enzymes... -
