    Celiac.com 07/04/2024 - Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition where the ingestion of gluten causes an immune reaction that damages the small intestine in genetically predisposed individuals. This disease can lead to various systemic...

    PS - We have categories of research summaries, but they relate to celiac disease...you may find them helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/schizophrenia-mental-problems-and-celiac-disease/ https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/ataxia-nerve...

    I am definitely not a psychologist or expert in that area, but it seems like even if you found some test that indicated that she has gluten sensitivity, she may not believe it anyway, and would still continue eating gluten. Has she ever agreed with you that gluten causes some of her mental and other health issues? Has she ever been gluten-free for at...

    I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It sounds incredibly frustrating and overwhelming to deal with worsening symptoms despite following a gluten-free diet. Here are a few thoughts and suggestions that might help: Cross-Contamination: Double-check your diet and kitchen practices to ensure there's no accidental gluten exposure. Even...

    Mannitol can be derived from various sources, including wheat. However, the process of manufacturing mannitol typically removes proteins, including gluten. If the mannitol is highly purified, it might not contain significant amounts of gluten. While it is unlikely that a small daily pill containing highly purified mannitol derived from wheat would...

    Sorry, I can't change her genetics, and am just replying to your query about her genetic markers as they might relate to celiac disease. It's unclear from your posts whether or not she's ever had a blood test for celiac disease, has she? If so, can you share those results? If not, this would be the only way to diagnose celiac disease. It sounds like...

    So if you have DH, it usually means that you are super sensitive to very small amounts of gluten, and to get rid of the DH you need to be 100% gluten-free, and this may mean avoiding eating at restaurants, unless you can be certain the food is 100% gluten-free. If you have DH you will may also need to avoid foods high in iodine, which is common in...

    The genetic test results provided do not indicate celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Celiac disease is most commonly associated with the HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 genetic markers. Specifically, individuals with celiac disease often have the alleles HLA-DQ2.5 (DQA105:01, DQB102:01) or HLA-DQ8 (DQA103, DQB103:02). Your results show: DRB1*01: Serological...

    It's hard to say from the photo, but if you have celiac disease it could be DH. Do you get tiny, hard, clear blisters in that area, and is it super itchy?

    Any only a single blood sample is necessary to do both.

    Actually glyphosate is only banned in 2 countries in Europe, and buying organic and eating grain-free is probably the best way to avoid it.

    A drop in blood pressure can be a symptom for someone with celiac disease who ingests gluten, although it is not a common or direct symptom. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. This can cause a variety of symptoms, including gastrointestinal issues, nutrient deficiencies, and systemic...

    Is it possible you have other food intolerances?

    A class action lawsuit was filed last Friday against Trader Joe's, and the danger here is that some companies may discontinue their gluten-free products, or smaller companies may go out of business due to such lawsuits:

    The lab used by Moms Across America ran their test two times on each product, to be sure that their results were correct, and the test they used isn't prone to false positive results. A class action lawsuit was filed last Friday against Trader Joe's, and the danger here is that some companies may discontinue their gluten-free products, or smaller companies...

    After finally receiving the lot number from Trader Joe's for the Everything Bagels tested by Moms Across America for their study, I received this response from Trader Joe's yesterday: So basically all companies we've contacted about high gluten results that were found in the study are circling their wagons and claiming that the batch in question is...

    Are you concerned that it might have gluten in it? It looks like it’s naturally gluten-free but is not labeled gluten-free: Ingredients ROASTED PEANUTS, SUGAR, CONTAINS 2% OR LESS OF, FULLY HYDROGENATED VEGETABLE OILS (COTTONSEED AND RAPESEED) WITH MONO-DIGLYCERIDES, SALT. CONTAINS: PEANUTS. MAY CONTAIN TREE NUTS.

    I haven't had that specific company's version of sweet potato noodles, but it's a bit hard to believe that in a restaurant setting they could guarantee that any dish is 100% gluten-free, due to cross contamination issues in the restaurant setting. Do they use soy sauce in other dishes? Do they also have wheat noodle and other wheat dishes? If so, cross contamination...

    Welcome to the forum @Maria101. Can you tell us more about your situation? Have you formally been diagnosed with celiac disease? You mentioned gluten sensitivity, but there currently aren't very good tests for that--did you have allergy tests done? Are you on a gluten-free diet? Also, here is a recent article on the topic of job applications and celiac...

    I believe you meant to say "after eating a larger meal," but correct me if I am wrong. One common symptom of getting gluten in your diet if you have celiac disease is the feeling of dizziness, almost like vertigo, which can create panic attacks in some people, which can include a racing heart. I had symptoms like this for many years before getting diagnosed...
