I would very much like to see the forums subdivided, to make them easier to navigate. As it is, there are just soo many of them.

If you put them in several groups, it would make it a good bit eaiser.

Please?

I'm not sure what you are asking. The threads are already subdivided into appropriate categories. I think once you get beyond that, its hard to tell where things would go, as many threads cover a "variety" of topics (i.e., a thread in parents of kids with celiac might talk about symptoms, and food, and how to deal with a doctor, all in one thread).

GS,

Are you perusing each section seperately or all at once?

best regards, lm

Look at the huge list!

I'd have to agree with you. I always look at the front page and think "gosh, is there a way to decrease the number of forums?" There are so many! But then I can't figure out a way to do it, but grouping them might help.

I actually think that's a great idea. It might really help the moderators out too with people posting in the wrong sections. I always just view new posts, but when I put up a new post I always struggle to find the appropriate forum. Perhaps you could PM Scott and suggest this or direct him to this thread.

I'm glad everyone else seems to like the idea. Now how do we tell scott?

Just an FYI:

I'm pretty sure that the software package that hosts the board is a standard package, so even *if* Scott wanted to make a big change like this, I don't even know if it would be possible.

Should be. Most forums manage it.

      Delayed reaction

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @RDB7918393! For some folks, gluten reactions are delayed but I would not think symptoms delayed  of a week or more out would be due to a gluten reaction. Twenty four hours or so but not 7-14 days. I would suspect something else is going on. Eating out is well-known to be the number one sabotaging activity of the gluten-free life style.

      Delayed reaction

      By RDB7918393 · Posted

      I was diagnosed with Celiac about 10 months ago after having on and off morning stomach cramping and loose stool that only occurred like once a month. So I don’t get immediate reactions…more if build up reactions. I do my best to be gluten free but hard when on vacation and going to restaurants to fully trust cross contamination problems. I find that if I’m cross contaminated, I don’t get a reaction til about a week or two after. The reaction is stomach cramping morning only with flaky stool. Does anyone else have such a delayed reaction like a week or two after being glutened? Or should I go for more testing to see what’s going on.

      Rice, corn, and other gluten-free grains.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your approach is spot-on—trusting reliable sources like Mayo Clinic and sticking to a gluten-free diet that works for you is the best way to navigate all the noise out there. The claim that rice and corn contain forms of gluten harmful to celiacs is indeed a misconception. While these grains do contain proteins that may technically be referred to as "glutens" in a broader scientific sense, they are structurally and functionally different from the gliadin found in wheat, which is the specific protein harmful to those with celiac disease. Scientific research overwhelmingly supports the safety of non-contaminated rice and corn for celiacs unless there’s a separate sensitivity or allergy involved. Some opinion pieces or alternative health sources may blur the lines by conflating these proteins, which can cause unnecessary worry. You're absolutely correct to focus on the distinction between scientifically validated information and anecdotal claims. It's also important to note that some people with celiac disease may develop sensitivities to other grains over time, but this is individual and not a universal rule. If you’re asymptomatic and thriving on a diet that includes certified gluten-free products with rice and corn, there’s no reason to change what’s clearly working for you. The internet is a breeding ground for well-meaning but misguided advice, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Your instinct to validate claims through reliable research is exactly the right way to go. Keep enjoying your gluten-free meals, stick with trusted certifications, and don’t feel pressured to adopt restrictive diets that aren’t backed by science or tailored to your specific needs. Happy New Year to you too!
