      Celebrity Cruise for Gluten Free

      By gregoryC · Posted

      Agree, and on this cruise I did the worst case scenario. I did not meet with any dining room staff. Out of 7 nights I only had to request 1 night to see if they could make a cuban themed seafood plate for me. They did! It was awesome! I cannot emphasize enough how much Celebrity beats Royal Caribbean on quality and options for not only Gluten Free options but all food choices!  Best prime rib, steak diane, steak and lobster, and spaghetti bolognese, just a few! WOW!  Also ate one night at the buffet. I took a small spoon size portion of most hot items to try. It took me two trip using the largest plate I could find. Doing this I still was not able to sample all the options. I also did not take my enzymes before each meal and did not get sick! It was a try vacation! Go Celebrity!

      How to choose a Naturopath for 6yr old

      By jadeceoliacuk · Posted

      Hello forum, I wondered if there was any advice as to finding a naturopath for my 6yr old. He is ceoliac and been advised to go dairy free too by an NHS dietician. He is on a wait list for an ASD assesment and is low on iron, vit d etc... has a weak immune system or maybe his immune system is just overactive as he is poorly alot. I think we could do with some help supporting his diet. I am just feeling overwhelmed by all the naturopaths out there, whether I should find someone local, someone who specialises in kids. How do I begin my search? Also it all seems so expensive, but if anyone has success stories this would help me to make this decision. Many thanks in advance

      Implications of glutening after repairing villi

      By Jean Shifrin · Posted

      Thanks so much for this article, Scott. My symptoms are not gastrointestinal, but result in intense swelling in my left knee if I consume gluten. The swelling will go down in a day or two if I do not ingest any more gluten. I'm thankful that I no longer have gastrointestinal related symptoms, so most of these remedies are not applicable - but I appreciate your response and the article.

      Is the gluten challenge worth it with what I’ve got going on here?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience sounds challenging, and it’s great that you’re already seeing some improvements on a gluten-free diet. Based on your HLA gene results, the alleles you have (DQA101:02, DQA102:01, DQB102:02, DQB106:02) show a mix of gene types, some of which are associated with an increased risk of celiac disease, though none are definitive indicators on their own. Given that celiac testing can be inconclusive after going gluten-free, it’s understandable that a gluten challenge feels daunting. Some people choose to forego a formal diagnosis and stay gluten-free if they’re experiencing significant improvements, as a gluten challenge can indeed trigger unpleasant symptoms. But if having a definitive diagnosis would help with managing your long-term health, you could talk to your GI about options to ease into the gluten challenge more gradually. Alternatively, you might explore non-invasive options like monitoring for elevated anti-gliadin antibodies, though this isn’t as conclusive as a biopsy. Ultimately, if your symptoms are notably better and your quality of life has improved, staying gluten-free without a diagnosis can be a valid choice, especially if your doctor is supportive of this approach. You might also look into working with a dietitian to ensure that you’re getting all the nutrients you need on a gluten-free diet, especially since you’ve had vitamin deficiencies in the past.
