There has been some success with creating a tTG2 inhibitor.

It would be interesting to look at populations that have never been exposed to gluten.

I experienced memory problems, brain fog and anxiety. Gradually faded on a gluten free diet and came back with a vengeance when I resumed eating gluten for testing.

I was hit with debilitating anxiety about six months prior to my diagnosis - so alien to my life until that time, it took me a while to realise that it was anxiety.  It took about eighteen months to completely go.  My blood tests showed v...

The paper is currently freely available:
Characterizations of a neutralizing antibody broadly reactive to multiple gluten peptide:HLA-DQ2.5 complexes in the context of celiac disease

It would normally be diagnosed by a combination of endoscopy and biopsy findings combined with blood tests for coeliac disease related antibodies.

Does anyone know if high TTG levels can be caused by anything other than gluten ?

It can take several years to fully recover. It is also a very trying condition due to the dietary restrictions. I was diagnosed 2.5 years ago and am still recovering. I didn't realise how ill I had been and for how long. As I started...

That study showed 7 of 62 children had coeliac disease, which is 11%. However, that is a small sample so there is considerable uncertainty in the figure. If I remember my stats, the standard deviation will be the square root of 7, so...

Symptoms vary greatly between people both in spectrum and severity. Some people seem to be able to tolerate very occasional ingestion of large amounts of gluten without symptoms, other people become very ill with even trace amounts. I...

Maltodextrin is gluten-free:

I do the same thing. Mercifully, I don't go into anaphylaxis as some people do if exposed to allergens, but on the other hand don't know whether I have been exposed enough to provoke an immune response and all the sequelae that involves...

I got myself a bread machine and found a good recipe based upon gluten-free oat flour amongst other ingredients. It uses psyllium husk to replace the gluten and the result is just like wheat bread.

@Guest Interesting,
While you criticize Jefferson Adams' article here for citing outdated research with small sample sizes, you yourself fail to give any links to support your contrary claims. And I disagree with your contention...

This study is less than a year old, and it consists of data that was taken over a seven year period. It's unclear whether the subjects in the study were following a strict gluten-free diet, but the reality is that many celiacs don't follow...

I don't think it's practical or affordable to test for all of these various deficiencies, and and simpler approach might be for those with celiac disease to take a general vitamin/mineral supplement like One A Day (with or without iron...

This suggests 1 in 7.

It would be nice to have some references for these claims.

Links to credible references please, marcus. There are plenty of unqualified "experts" who make a living off of sensational claims that run counter to mainstream scientific opinion.

That is a shame. In the UK, McDonalds fries are gluten-free.
 

Not at all. Two thirds of people diagnosed in adulthood experience neurological manifestations. This is important from a medical diagnostic perspective and adds weight to the importance of adhering to a gluten-free diet.

Thank you for the interesting review article. Sheffield Teaching Hospital in the UK has been doing excellent research into gluten induced neuropathy. For example, in the prospective cohort study linked below, 67% of newly diagnosed celiac...

Why is this nonsense? The study confirms that most people, whether or not they have coeliac disease, experience mild to moderate symptoms as you did. Vaccination provides modest protection against infection but large protection against...
