Feeling Pretty... Good?!?

I'm coming up on 7 months gluten free and realised the other day... I actually feel pretty *good*!

Either my body's finally adjusted to the new diet (gluten, dairy, soy-free) or I've gotten smarter about what I put in my mouth, or both... but things just feel normal again. Except better.

I've even eaten out a couple of times without incident.

It seemed in the beginning every little thing would set me off. Now? It's been weeks. Have others found that their bodies eventually learn to chill out on the new regimen? Or that they can tolerate a little CC once in a while without consequences?

I've often wondered if I had just gotten better at this, or if I could just handle cc a little better now. My Lyme doc started me on a lot of meds and supplements. I was so overwhelmed just with the schedule of taking them all, I didn't even read if they were gluten-free. It took several days before I had any kind of reaction to the one supplement that had barley, and all it caused was some minor stomach upset.

Since I'm non-celiac, I challenged with the supplement again, and it bothered me again, so I know for sure it was this particular supplement causing the problems.

      What should I do with these test results?

      The fact is, we know very little about the mechanism of NCGS at this point. We know much more about celiac disease. Some experts believe that NCGS can transition into celiac disease. And I do not agree with what you read about NCGS not producing any elevated antibody tests. IMO, and I have no scientific data to support this, it's just a hunch base on reading...

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      Statins are a widely prescribed class of medications used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes. Extensive scientific research, including large-scale randomized controlled trials, has demonstrated their efficacy and safety for most individuals. Statins work by inhibiting an enzyme involved...

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      Just judging from the reports we get from forum members sharing their endoscopy results, very common. But we also get a lot of reports of inflammation in those areas coupled with a negative biopsy for celiac. But I wonder if in a lot of those latter cases we are seeing NCGS or a transition from NCGS to celiac. I have no scientific data to support that. It...

      How many grams is there in one slice of wheat bread?

      I don't have symptoms now. But this DGP IgG is high than normal. I read your article. Very nice by the way. Based on it I don't need to do DGP IgG because I don't have IgA deficiency. I did it first time because those days I didn't know the right procedure for blood tests so I did all. What might you do if you was me? Just keep eating gluten and do tests...

And I do not agree with what you read about NCGS not producing any elevated antibody tests. IMO, and I have no scientific data to support this, it's just a hunch base on reading many, many forum contributor test result reports, elevated igg antibodies may signal a transition from NCGS to celiac disease.  But there are other things besides gluten that can cause elevated dgp igg and ttg igg antibody levels. So, yes. I would continue to monitor the situation if I were you and get regular testing. Not necessarily every 6 months but yearly anyway if you can. In the meantime, if you know gluten causes you unwellness, continue to avoid it.

      Statins are a widely prescribed class of medications used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes. Extensive scientific research, including large-scale randomized controlled trials, has demonstrated their efficacy and safety for most individuals. Statins work by inhibiting an enzyme involved in cholesterol production in the liver, thereby reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol. Importantly, statins do not "remove all fats" from the body, as suggested in your post. They specifically target cholesterol synthesis and do not deplete essential fats, such as those required for brain function, hormone production, or nutrient absorption. The body still maintains its necessary fat reserves, including healthy fats, which are critical for physiological processes. Regarding the claim that statins cause internal bleeding by making blood vessels permeable, this is not supported by scientific evidence. Statins are not known to increase the risk of internal bleeding. However, like all medications, they can have side effects, such as muscle pain or, in rare cases, liver enzyme abnormalities. The benefits of statins in reducing cardiovascular risk generally outweigh the risks for most patients, particularly those with a history of heart disease or high cholesterol. The suggestion to use odorless garlic, magnesium, vitamin K, and calcium for heart health may have some merit, as these supplements can support cardiovascular function in certain contexts. For example, magnesium is involved in muscle and nerve function, while vitamin K plays a role in blood clotting and bone health. However, these should not replace evidence-based treatments like statins when prescribed by a healthcare provider. Always consult a medical professional before making changes to medication or starting new supplements, as individual health needs vary.

Biopsy is not available in my town. I also read somewhere if a person has NCGS he doesn't have any blood tests high. Very confusing situation.
