Hi all.

I thought I found one on here last year, made it, and hubby loved it. Now I can't find it :o AND I can't remember what I put in it! What do you all put in yours? I could really use some suggestions.

Thanks!

We just do mixed nuts and throw in chocolate chips, or peanut butter chips, Reese's Pieces, etc.

In a giant bowl, I mix 1 container of mixed nuts from costco--and everything else I add is UNsalted, couple handfuls of mini-marshmallows, pkg each regular and peanut m&m's, honey roasted soynuts, sunflower seeds and a pkg of 'just fruits' mixed fruit, craisins. It makes a ton, I store it in a large cereal container.

I just toss together whatever I have on hand - most often a mix of nuts (peanuts, cashews, pecans, almonds, sometimes walnuts or pistachios), dried fruits (usually just raisins, but sometimes cranberries, apricots, prunes, dates), sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds (pepitas), occasionally some chocolate chips too.

Thanks everyone for all of your ideas! I really appreciate it. With these I'll be able to make him some trail mix that he really likes.

Thanks again!

If you buy your nuts and seeds raw (store in the freezer) and toast them up fresh, you will have a snack that will beat anything you can buy and is much better tasting than buying toasted and throwing together.

      Keep us posted and let us know the results of the biopsy. Your case is atypical in a way in that you have this high DGP-IGA but normal TTG-IGA so knowing how it turns out will give us more data for similar situations that may be posted in the future.

      Fair enough! I very easily could have misread somewhere. Celiac is very confusing lol but I should know in a little over a month what the final verdict is. Just thought chatting with people smarter than myself would get me in the right mindset. I just thought that DGP IGA was pretty high compared to some stuff I had seen and figured someone on here would be more willing to say it is more than likely celiac instead of my doctor who is trying to be less direct. She did finally say she believes it is celiac but wanted to confirm with the biopsy. I did figure it wouldn't hurt seeing what other people said too just because not all doctors are the best. I think mine is actually pretty good from what I have seen but I don't know what I don't know lol. Sorry lot of rambling here just trying to get every thought out. Thanks again!

      No, you don't necessarily need multiple testing methods to confirm celiac disease. There is an increasing trend for celiac diagnoses to be made on a single very high tTG-IGA test score. This started in the UK during the COVID pandemic when there was extreme stress on the healthcare system there and it is spreading to the US. A tTG-IGA score of somewhere between 5x and 10x normal is good enough by itself for some physicians to declare celiac disease. And mind you, that is the tTG-IGA, not the DGP-IGA. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac antibody testing, the one test most commonly ordered and the one that physicians have the most confidence in. But in the US, many physicians still insist on a biopsy, even in the event of high tTG-IGA scores. Correct, the biopsy is considered "confirmation" of the blood antibody testing. But what is the need for confirmation of a testing methodology if the testing methodology is fool proof? As for the contribution of genetic testing for celiac disease, it cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease since 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease while only 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But it can be used to rule out celiac disease. That is, if you don't have the genes, you don't have celiac disease but you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).

      Okay yeah that helps! To answer your last bit my understanding was that you need to have multiple tests to confirm celiac. Blood, biopsy, dna, and then I think symptoms is another one. Either way I think everything has to be confirmed with the biopsy because that is the gold standard for testing (Doctors words). You also answered another question I forgot to ask about which is does a high value push to a higher % on those scales. I truly appreciate your answers though and just like hearing what other people think. Digging into forums and google for similar stuff has been tough. So thank you again!
