Gosh, I could spend my entire life on here... a new feature: BLOGS! I love new features...this is nasty (not literally--it's a figure of speech :lol: )

Just a quick note to let you know that The Gluten-Free Forum now has a new Blog feature that allows registered members like you to create and maintain your own Internet blog. For those who don't know what a blog is, it is basically like your own diary on the Internet. In this case it is our hope that what you share in your blogs will greatly help other people with celiac disease.

For more information please log into the forum's home page at:

and click "Blogs," or visit the blog page directly at:

Thank you,

Scott Adams

Gosh ya'll,

I feel so OLD! I am so technologically un-savvy! :rolleyes:

"Blog" is a funny little word. :D I had to open this thread just out of curiosity.

celiac3270,

I went to your "Blog" and still have no idea exactly what I'm looking at...or how all of the messages interconnect...and what is a trackback?...I got totally lost! :o

How pitiful... <_<

Don't ask me--I'm new, too--lol :lol:

Have no idea what a trackback is..

Mine is really dull now, but I hope to find time to make it more interesting--I just wanted to test it out.

For those that seem not to know, Blog is short for weblog. Its an on line diary, or journel type idea. Just FYI :)

Jill--you can also import the blog onto the site here, as well--but if it's not about celiac, I don't know... ;)

celiac3270,

It's about everything---and celiac disease. It's the story of my life, but I decided to make a separate celiac disease diary. My LJ is friends only, and I don't know if any of the members (besides Tiffany) have LJ.

      Celiac for dummies

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
