....... oats, rice, any grains at all, beans or pluses.

I know I can't be the only one that's sensitive to all grain, pluses and beans. I feel bloated and blocked. How are you getting enough fibre in your diet to keep a healthy flow, so to speak!

Psuedo grains like buckwheat (not related to wheat), seeds and nuts are another possibility.

Thank you for these suggestions. If you're sensitive are you able to eat quinoa? Buckwheat? I can't tolerate rice, oats, bean or cornflour. I sometimes miss the bulk (fibre) that rice and oats give.

@EllieP,

Have you tried Basmati Rice?  It's the type of rice that's well tolerated, least likely to provoke a reaction, easily digested.  

I can't tolerate rice or grains, especially corn, but I found I can have basmati rice.  

It should be near the other types of rice....short grain rice, brown rice and black rice.

You'll just have to experiment. The answer won't be the same for everyone. https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/health/diet-nutrition/a25438225/is-quinoa-grain/

Buckwheat is the seed of a plant related to rhubarb so not a member of the grass family.

Buckwheat and quinoa are good as mentioned. I would recommend lots of vegetables. Acacia fiber is really good also and helps promote good bacteria growth, as most fiber does.

      Help with results

      By mariamccl · Posted

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you for sharing your genetic test results and background. Your results indicate you carry one half of the DQ2 heterodimer (DQA1*05), which is associated with a very low celiac disease risk (0.05%). While most celiac patients have either DQ2 or DQ8, these genes are also present in people without celiac disease, so the test alone doesn’t confirm a diagnosis. Since you’ve been gluten-free for 10 years, traditional diagnostic methods (like endoscopy or blood tests) would not be reliable now. If an official diagnosis is important to you, consider discussing a gluten challenge with your doctor, where you reintroduce gluten for a period before testing. Alternatively, you could focus on symptom management and dietary adherence, as your gluten-free diet seems to be helping. Consulting a gastroenterologist or celiac specialist could provide further clarity.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      @cvz Thank you for sharing your daughter’s story. It sounds like she is managing multiple complex conditions with great care and diligence. It’s encouraging to hear that she is compliant with her gluten-free diet and that her Addison’s disease symptoms are under control. The addition of electrolytes seems like a thoughtful suggestion, especially given her fluid intake. It’s also reassuring that she hasn’t shown noticeable symptoms from accidental gluten exposure, though it’s understandable how challenging it can be to monitor for such incidents. The unexplained high lipase levels are intriguing—perhaps further investigation or consultation with a specialist could provide more clarity. Wishing you both continued strength and success in managing her health. Please keep us updated on her progress!
