We've done a detailed analysis on the Moms Across America study and found that 15% of GFCO Certified "Gluten-Free" products that were randomly tested by them were found to contain gluten at over 10ppm. We'll comment more on this later, but we updated the topic title to include this new revised amount (it said 10% before). 32 out of 46 products were...

Dermatitis Herpetiformis Help Please
Scott Adams replied to Caroline S's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. This article may...- 20 replies

Has he had his thyroid function checked? Many people with celiac disease also have thyroid issues. -
I am sorry to hear about your husband, and I hope his health improves. It's true that gluten-free replacement bread products are not fortified with vitamins like wheat-based products are, and that many people with celiac disease need to replace the fiber that they got in their diets when eating wheat products, but I'm not sure you can attribute his heart...

Are Ritz Crackers Gluten-Free?
Scott Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Good question, and the answer would be an organic brand that is also gluten-free, but I'm not sure if there are any. Unfortunately the problem with elevated glyphosate levels is pretty widespread now, and the industry says that even the highest levels detected in that study are safe, believe it or not (they also said that many other pesticides and herbicides...- 5 comments

I think any restaurant, even ones that claim to be 100% gluten-free, can still have issues from time to time. As you can see here by the number of recalls for "gluten-free" foods, stuff happens: It might also be a good idea to take a break from eating there for while, and when you go back pay attention to see if you have any issues.

While I agree with most of the info in your post, I doubt this part of it is true: "90% of the doctors do not know what choline is...". I think it would be more accurate to say: "Many doctors do not know what choline is..." -

This one test does not indicate a systemic issue with all batches of their bagels--it could be just this batch, but could also indicate a bigger issue as well.

Post diagnosis

Dairy-free is not the same as lactose-free, and he would need to eliminate all dairy, however, to me it might be more likely that his diet is not 100% gluten-free, so I would start there first. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.): -

I would only add that the article this thread is based on also found that 8% of products sampled which were certified gluten-free did not meet thee required certification standards, so it raises the question of just how much protection such a certification actually affords anyone.

Welcome! It sounds like you've had quite a journey with your health. Your experience with IGG responses to cow's milk protein (CMP) is interesting. It's great that you've seen improvement since cutting out milk. It's wise to do genetic testing and consider all factors before deciding on an endoscopy. Staying off milk and gluten for a while to see how you...

Low libido without gluten
Scott Adams replied to Spherical Bird's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I've never heard of someone with gluten sensitivity whose libido increased when they ate gluten. For most people it seems like the opposite would be the case. -

Trying to be patient
Scott Adams replied to PA Painter's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
How did your tests go? It seems you've been gluten-free for a while now, so hopefully you understand that, just like the blood tests, your endoscopy (if for celiac disease), will likely be negative for celiac disease, because you've been gluten-free for so long. To be screened for celiac disease you would need to be eating gluten daily for weeks, which, given... -
If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful:
