I would argue that NCGS is a worse prognosis. Many who are afflicted suffer from neurological and psychiatric symptoms ranging from psychosis to epilepsy to MS like symptoms. It should not be diminished as it has been in this article.

I find it so amusing how much this article down plays the gluten enzyme BS meds that have been featured here for years. I really love the finishing part of this article...so saving this part of it. On a side note everyone is different some NCGS people have worse reactions involving gluten ataxia. I mean gut damage takes 2-5 years to heal gluten-free.....nerve and brain damage takes decades to never.  You should never down play another persons medical condition, you do not know how bad their version is, how it effects their body, and if you do not have it and live life in the way they do you can not comprehend how hard it might make their daily lives and how it effects them.

      But here's the thing. As long as the product in question tests out at less than 10ppm of gluten then the company can legitimately advertise it as certified gluten free according to GFCO standards. Here they claim their products have "No Gluten": https://www.kachava.com/ingredients . I suppose you could quibble with them over the verbiage that "No Gluten" is not the same as "Certified Gluten Free".

      Thanks so much for this post. I was actually thinking of purchasing it as they do advertise it as gluten-free on their website. But, I clearly had not scrutinized the label closely enough!

      Celiac Diagnosis from Bloodwork Only?

      By trents · Posted

      There are some causes besides celiac disease for elevated tTG-IGA, such as cow's milk protein, some other bowel diseases, NSAIDs, a certain blood pressure med and parasitic infections but the chances of that being true are not very high compared to the cause being celiac disease. And even with CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) most of those cases involve people who already have celiac disease.

      Did you purchase it thinking it was gluten free? The company doesn't advertise it as such do they? Barley is not one of the eight main allergens that the FDA requires to be posted in the allergen info. Wheat is but not barley. But good catch. We don't see many products with barley and rye as ingredients and it is easy to get lazy, not really read the detailed ingredient list and to just go straight for the allergen list.
