Gluten Free Expo Slc

So last fall I was just too tired and exhausted to drag myself off to the gluten free expo up in Salt Lake. This year, I just meandered onto the site and found out that Jennifer Espisoto is going to be speaking this year. I told my husband that I'll be there no matter what. I'm already so excited and it isn't until October! Anyone looking for fun October plans, we have beautiful fall weather here in October and this isn't some namby pamby expo. It is beyond ginormous. There are a billion gluten free dining options up in Salt lake and a few bakeries, two of which I can speak for that have killer cupcakes. Very gluten free friendly city for anyone who wants to make plans to come.

      Celiac or not?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?

      So the way it should be used is to take it before possible gluten exposure, so right before a meal at a restaurant take 1-2 capsules. Unfortunately taking it 1 hour or more after an exposure is too late.

      Do I really need to get a biopsy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your detailed experience. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot over the past several months, and it’s understandable to feel frustrated after navigating unclear diagnoses and conflicting advice. Since you’ve found relief with a gluten- and corn-free diet, it might be worth continuing that approach for now, especially given your current commitments to culinary classes. You could consider working with a knowledgeable dietitian or a gastroenterologist who specializes in food intolerances and celiac disease to explore potential intolerances or other conditions without immediately reintroducing gluten. If confirming celiac disease is important for your long-term health management, you could plan for an endoscopy during a less busy period, ensuring you follow the gluten challenge protocol beforehand. In the meantime, prioritizing your well-being and avoiding known triggers seems like a practical step. Always advocate for yourself with doctors, and seek second opinions if needed—your health concerns are valid. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
