Could anyone direct me to some good articles or sites on depression and anxiety in celiacs. My therapist is very interested in knowing more and how it affects our moods and so on. Thank you

These should get you started. When you go to the Pubmed links you should be able to find more. Using the words 'celiac' and 'neurological' or 'psychiatric' should bring up more articles. My psychiatrist was quite interested in learning more also. There are studies that have said that depressed patients who don't respond to meds should be screened for celiac. Many times removing gluten from our diets does help resolve problems with anxiety and depression.

Unfortunately Clinical Therapists and Psychologists are not trained at all regarding the neurological effects of gluten and the resulting profound depression and anxiety that can result. I got 2 degrees to treat depressed people and then got flattened by depression and anxiety and then years later realized I had been undiagnosed Celiac for years. Nothing in all of my years of education ever mentioned Celiac disease. Good for your therapist wanting to educate her/himself. More therapists need to know since they are the first line of treatment for people who only present with depression and anxiety as symptoms. I hope she gets information to her professional organizations and tells her colleagues.

Yes,more need to know about how celiac affects our brains. She is very interested in this. She has done some research to help me and I have printed out parts from the forum for her. I have been lucky to have her.

      Testing for celiac

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And...

      Testing for celiac

      By Bebee · Posted

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.

      Nandos improper preparion celiac childrens food

      By kate g · Posted

      Recently my daughter ate in nandos harlow I rang in advance to speak about the celiac protocals and learned that childs portion chicken nandinos is cooked on the same grill as garlic bread even if they are celiac! Even if you clean it this is not good practise and will be making many children ill. I learnt adults butterfly chicken cooked on a grill purely for chicken.  This is fine and what we ordered however nandos need to take note of your practises for the safety of celiac children. my daughter has been ill from their nandinos chicken before and i emailed head office and they wouldnt accept responsibility
