The most common situation is when shared utensils are not adequately cleaned and in that case one capsule is enough.

If you find out that you have accidentally eaten gluten after the fact then please take GliadinX as soon as possibly and preferably within 30-90 minutes while the food bolus is still in the stomach. In vivo and in vitro studies have shown that GliadinX can break down about 1/8 to 1/3 slices of bread. (A researcher at the University of Chicago says 1/8 and the Dutch team who worked on the product determined that it is about 1/3 slice.) I have purposely maximized the concentration even if it is a little more expensive and also adjusted the acidity to further boost the effect to allow also for accidental consumption of gluten. We all know that it just happens but I emphasize here accidental and not intentional. This is not a hint or encouragement to eat gluten but it means exactly what it says.

Please use the chart on this page to determine the amount of capsules https://www.gliadinx.com/instructions

Beyond that time frame, GliadinX will not help anymore because it is only effective in the stomach together with the naturally occurring stomach enzymes.

Thank you! So very helpful!

In summary, AN-PEP has been shown in published scientific studies to break down anywhere between 1/8 to 1/3 of a slice of wheat bread! If that is not the most amazing development that has come along in the treatment of celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity in the past 25 years, what is? How much cross contamination would you likely get in a restaurant where you might order off a gluten-free menu, or order items you know are naturally gluten-free? What if they cooked your eggs and hash browns on an area where they cooked pancakes, or they cooked a lettuce-wrapped burger on a grill where they toasted wheat buns? What if they pulled the croutons out of a salad they gave you? How much gluten would this be?

Again, I am not encouraging anyone to be unsafe, but am encouraging those who can't eat gluten to be more safe if they can't always be in a situation where they have full control over their food.

This is the paper from clinicians at the University of Chicago Celiac center writing about GliadinX being able to break down "only" 1/8 of a slice of bread (Section 12). As Scott pointed out, that is a huge step forward given that most contamination is a lot less

I just came across this thread. I’m very interested in more information about the AN-PEP and also I’ve seen things about charcoal tablets. Do you have any specific brands of these supplements or precautionary measures that you recommend? I’m so new to celiac disease that I’m literally afraid to eat almost anything from anyplace other than a pre-packaged certified gluten free food item. It’s been a bit overwhelming to say the least. Thank you so much!

When my kids were diagnosed, I must admit that it was quite overwhelming for me also but it for sure gets easier as you learn how to deal with it. It is easier in urban areas where there are more gluten free restaurants but most supermarkets have lots of gluten free options. 

Regarding AN-PEP, you can go on google scholar and enter the terms: aspergillus niger endopeptidase, gluten and you will find a lot.  I am biased towards GliadinX but you can easily look up the concentration of various AN-PEP (tolerase G) containing products and you will find that GliadinX has by far the highest concentration. In addition, the formula is made to lower the pH to further boost the efficacy. This is based on a study that compared the AN-PEP alone and with an acidic carbonated drink. Charcoal is controversial because the pores are very small and therefore, it can not detoxify gluten but some report that it helps with bloating. I am not an expert in that and others might chime in.

This is a paper that I just recently discovered by Dr. Stefano Guandalini who is Professor Emeritus and the founder of the University of Chicago Celiac Center.

Please not on the last page before the references the diagram (the image with the scissors) explaining how AN-PEP (GliadinX) works https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Stefano-Guandalini/publication/356538001_Celiac_Disease/links/61fec72bb44cbe4227256a70/Celiac-Disease.pdf

This product does not work for simple cross-contamination for me.

I don’t intend on doing copious amounts of research trying to justify that enzymes work; I just won’t support or purchase the product.

The fact this product is hyped on this forum so much AND a sponsor is suspect.

I'm not sure of how you used it, but it is true that if you got something with a lot of contamination it may not work unless you increase the number of capsules you take. In restaurant situations, even if I order from a gluten-free menu, I typically take two just before eating. Since I've been doing this I've not had gluten issues when eating out, but each situation is different, and my two capsules may not work if I should encounter something with a lot more hidden gluten in it.

Hi,

I am actually the "suspect" sponsor and I have developed the product for my own children based on the existing data and not based on hype but based on collaboration with the former head of the University of Chicago Celiac Center and the head of the GI department at Leiden University who performed some the original studies in 2006.

If the owner of the site, would not have evaluated the real data, he would not put my product anywhere on his site. 

 

After the disappointing outcome of a vaccine study, research has been focusing on reducing the body's inflammatory response and once again on endopeptidases such as GliadinX or Kumamax by Takeda and Latiglutenase by ImmunogenX (currently studies at the Mayo Clinic). Enzymes have been researched since the early 2000s and have been shown to break down the immunogenic component of gluten but got out of favor because several exopeptidases (not endopeptidases) claimed to break down gluten which in fact they do but they do not digest the immunogenic components and therefore the gluten is not detoxified. 

Here is the most recent double-blind placebo study with GliadinX on celiac volunteers. I am privileged to the data but can not post it until it will be published. I can hint that it is quite convincing and I hope that it will help people to have a safer gluten-free lifestyle and alleviate some of the significant stress associated with it:

I understand that you do not want to go through a copious amount of research (which is unfortunate because it is easily accessible) but for those who are interested here are some pertinent links to publications in peer-reviewed high-quality professional journals:

That’s great pal. It didn’t (and hasn’t) worked for me. YMMV, OK?

All the studies and factoids do not change my individual results.

You haven’t mentioned how you’ve used it, how many capsules you took, etc. More details about that might reveal something that could be helpful to you and others. Can you describe your experience when It didn’t work for you? How much you took, when you took them (hopefully just before eating or with the meal) is helpful info.

      It will not undo all of the healing.  If it did, diagnosis of celiac disease would be much easier!  To have enough damage to see on an endoscopy requires several weeks of gluten ingestion.

      HI, I am new to this and am still in 'repair' mode, which I know will take time. But I'm wondering if anyone knows what happens if you ingest gluten after you have made a lot of progress in repairing your villi. Does anyone know if you just have a short-term issue? Or does an accidental ingestion of gluten derail all the work you've done and set you back to square one? Thanks.

      Hydrolyzed wheat is wheat protein that has been broken down into smaller components through a chemical or enzymatic process called hydrolysis. This ingredient can be found in various products, including cosmetics, personal care items, and some food products. For people with celiac disease, hydrolyzed wheat is generally not safe to consume because it still contains gluten proteins, even in its broken-down form. Though hydrolysis reduces the size of these proteins, it doesn’t fully remove the components that trigger an autoimmune response in people with celiac disease. In food products, hydrolyzed wheat protein still poses a risk and should be avoided. With regard to the McDonald's French fries, the total amount of hydrolyzed wheat in the flavoring is small, and the amount that ends up in an order of fries is even smaller, and likely below 20ppm. McDonald’s states that the fries are gluten-free by ingredient and free from cross-contact with gluten-containing foods in their dedicated fryers. Third-party tests and statements by McDonald's confirm gluten levels are below the FDA threshold for gluten-free labeling (20 parts per million or less). So, while McDonald’s USA fries may be gluten-free based on testing, some people with celiac disease still approach them cautiously due to the past concerns and individual sensitivities.

      Here is an excerpt from this article: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC82695:   Studies have shown that various peptidases of fungal, plant, animal, or bacterial origin are able to hydrolyze gluten into harmless peptides. According to SDS‐PAGE pattern, proteolytic enzymes hydrolyze gliadins (Heredia‐Sandoval et al., 2016; Scherf et al., 2018; Socha et al., 2019; Wei et al., 2018, 2020). Bacterial peptidase (Krishnareddy & Green, 2017), fungal peptidase (Koning et al., 2005), and prolyl endopeptidases (PEPs) (Amador et al., 2019; Janssen et al., 2015; Kerpes et al., 2016; Mamo & Assefa, 2018) thoroughly degrade gliadin fractions to decrease gluten concentration and influence celiac disease. Aspergillus niger derived PEP (AN‐PEP) were assessed in clinical cases for their impact on modifying immune responses to gluten in celiac patients (Lähdeaho et al., 2014). Guerdrum and Bamforth (2012) reported that PEP addition in brewing technology decreased the prolamin and all of the identified immunopathogenic gluten epitopes in beer production (Akeroyd et al., 2016). On the contrary, many of the recent investigations which employed enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), mass spectrometry, and Western blot analysis reported that PEP did not thoroughly destroy the whole gluten proteins (Allred et al., 2017; Colgrave et al., 2017; Fiedler et al., 2018; Panda et al., 2015), which indicates that beers treated with PEP are not safe for celiac disease patients. Anecdotally, this excerpt supports what we hear from the celiac community on this forum with regard to "gluten free" hydrolyzed wheat products and that is that some still react to them while many don't.

      There aren't good studies that have been done on celiac disease remission, and I'm going from a distant memory of an older post here, but the longest remission that Dr. Stefano Guandalini from the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center has witnessed was ~10 years, then the symptoms of celiac disease and the damage came back. The real issue though, is that you still could increase your risk of various related diseases and disorders by eating gluten, but again, celiac disease remission has not been studies enough to know what health risks you might face.
