Hello i used to be so over the top when it came to making sure my food is completely gluten free. But lately im getting fed up as i get so hungry spending so much time cleaning and washing everything that i skip some steps then regret it afterwards wishing i did more. Is this normal i feel like im getting too relaxed on this diet.

Also i keep having instances happen where my food lands on my desk and i feel like that food is not contaminated even though i know there should be no gluten at my desk and i throw away the food.

Are you taking a B Complex supplement?  

Several of the eight essential B vitamins can help reduce anxiety, Cobalamine B12, Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B 6.  But all eight are needed for them to function properly.  Magnesium and Vitamin D help, too.  

Anxiety and depression are early symptoms that you may have insufficiency in vitamins and minerals.

If you are the only person who uses your desk, then you probably need to figure out a way to not worry about such things. Food is not cheap nowadays, so throwing it out isn't a great choice. I could only see doing this if I knew that my food got contaminated, or if there was a high likelihood of it.

Do you normally prepare most of your food, including when you venture out? If so, you should be good, but if you eat in restaurants you are opening yourself up to cross-contamination.

      Confused with test results

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      There is plenty of gluten food that is unplatable also. The trouble in restaurants is that wheat,  like the Frank's Hot Sauce commercial; "They throw that bleep on everything." In my opinion, the underlying problem is compromised immune system due to vitamin D deficiency and Green Revolution modern wheat.  50% of the industrialized world are vitamin D deficient and we are urged to avoid sun and limit oral vitamin D intake to the minimum.   Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity became an official diagnosis only 10 years after modern wheat was marketed.

      Does Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism elevate Ttg levels ? I have had 3 blood test results where ttg levels are around 39-43 (range 0-19). The first test was in 2021 before I was diagnosed with autoimmune thyroid disease. I had an endos

      I understand from one of our forum moderators who is UK-based that the benefits of having an official celiac diagnosis varies depending on your postal code. So then, it must be a benefit tied to local government rather than national government.

      I think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).  think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).

      Obviously, you have looked at all this from various angles and I respect that. But consider this, you could trial the gluten-free diet for six months to see if it results in lower ttg-iga scores. If so, it is another piece of evidence pointing to celiac disease. You could then go off the gluten fast and return to a gluten loaded diet for weeks or months and repeat the colonoscopy/endoscopy. My point is that trialing a gluten-free diet does not eliminate the possibility of getting valid celiac retesting at a late date if you are willing to engage with the gluten challenge.
