Do they have any easy to follow beginning books about Celiac and/or Gluten Free living?

Maybe a "Celiac for Dummies" or "The Idiots Guide to Gluten Free Living" :P

I've got the Gluten Free for Dummies and really like it. It's got recipes and some good info that is broken down and very easy to understand. It's written for anyone who is affected by a gluten-free diet, so it's great for family members who maybe don't understand.

"Celiac Disease: The Hidden Epidemic", by Peter H. R Green M.D. is excellent......unfortunately it's only available in hardcover. I don't remember that there were any recipes tho.......but it does offer an excellent overview (and then some) that's easily understood. I was going to suggest Jax Peters Lowell's "Gluten Free Bible" until I went to Lame Advertisement and see alot of unfavourable reviews about it having incorrect info....I never read it totally all the way thru so I guess I missed those. Anyhow, there's other books too on amazon so that'd be a good place to check out for other stuff. Hope this helps out. Have a good weekend y'all..................Angel

I have started reading "Gluten Free Living For Dummies" and so far, I really like it. It's actually made me go from hoping with every fiber in my being that I do NOT need to adhere to any type of gluten free lifestyle, to thinking that maybe it's not as horrible as I am assuming it to be. I am certainly not jumping for joy, but atleast I'm not feeling as frustrated, angry, and resentful as I was before, which is a start I guess :rolleyes:

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Hi @Soleihey, it looks like you are making great progress.  This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study:

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By robingfellow · Posted

      I've had symptoms of celiac disease since May 2022 (joint pain, severe migraines, digestive troubles, tachycardia, and hypothyroidism, fatigue) and couldn't figure out what was wrong, especially because I had no access to a doctor. In August of last year I tried a gluten free diet out of desperation and found all my symptoms clearing up! Especially the more of my diet I realized contained gluten and eliminated from my diet. I've even been able to maintain full-But just a couple weeks ago I had to have my gallbladder removed in am emergency surgery, and afterwards the surgeon suggested that a lot of my issues could have been caused by my gallbladder not working properly, but I haven't heard anything about that before. Any ideas? I don't want to try to reintroduce gluten without being certain it won't bring back my issues. It's already troubling enough to know I might have to reintroduce it to my diet just to be tested.

      Celebrity Luncheon Loaf Gluten Free

      By robingfellow · Posted

      I can also report from personally trying it that while not tasting quite as good as Spam, it is still very good especially compared to other Luncheon Loaf options that may not be gluten free
