Vertigo and dizziness were a big symptom for me, and are a common symptom. -
I still eat out once a week or so, and always take GliadinX (a site sponsor), which are AN-PEP based enzymes that have been shown in multiple studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the stomach. This enzyme would not work as a more general enzyme for other foods, and seems to target gliadin.

Feroglobin Iron Capsules
Scott Adams replied to Martin Webster's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
It's great that you shared this because rumors that dry wall could contain gluten have been around for a long time, but testing it is the only way to know for sure, and now we can say this isn't just a rumor! -
Which Alcoholic Seltzers are Gluten-Free?
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
We added both to our list, thank you! -
Yes, I have sleep apnea and use a CPAP device. If you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, not all of your health issues are caused by gluten.

Great Gluten-Free Cocktails with Kahlúa
Scott Adams posted an article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Celiac.com 04/08/2021 - We get lots of questions about alcohol, especially flavored alcohols and liqueurs, such as Kahlúa. We recently did an article clarifying that Kahlúa is gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease. Still, ... -

are you going to take the vaccine
Scott Adams replied to DJFL77I's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I got my first Moderna vaccine today. So far I only have noticed a very mild sore area in my shoulder at the injection area. -
Lots of people have issues with garlic so it’s certainly possible. you might want to keep a food diary to see if you can pinpoint it something you’re eating. This article might also be helpful:

I happen to know some very nice, down to earth doctors who really do put their patients first (and have almost no home lives because of their approach). Of course, like anything, there can be good ones and bad ones, but it would not be fair to assume that they are all the same, and have the same motivations for becoming a doctor.

Allergist recommendations? Anyone?
Scott Adams replied to Lotte18's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ancient Harvest Quinoa products are gluten-free, and at least back when Dave Schnorr owned the company all of the Quinoa was directly from the high Andes in Peru and Ecuador (I believe), where no wheat is grown or processed. -

Self Tests reliable?
Scott Adams replied to CMCM's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I did get the full Alcat testing done, and received a very detailed report from them which contained about 4 items on the "severe" list that surprised me, but were easily avoidable as I didn't eat them often. The moderate list had items on it that also surprised me, including brown and white rice, sorghum, mustard seed, coffee, and other things, and I'm supposed... -
I would say 4 servings.

Celiac.com 04/06/2021 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain products are gluten-free. One question we see a lot is about snack products, especially peanuts. Specifically, are Planter's Peanuts gluten... -

Welcome to the forum! Your symptoms could be consistent with either celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, but since you've gone gluten-free already you can't be screened for this. You need to be eating gluten daily for at least 6 weeks before a blood test for celiac disease will be accurate. However, if the diet works for you an the symptoms go away...

I think it goes without saying that it is terrible that a company would use a false gluten-free certification, and it's my hope that the GFCO sues them and puts a stop to it. My point about their old logo is that it's vague, and hard to protect legally. I'm not 100% sure they can stop companies from putting "GF" in a circle on their packages...it's just a...

If the outbreaks are DH then it is possible that either something you are eating, or something you are using on your skin could be causing them...or both. The first step would be to make 100% sure that your diet is indeed gluten-free. Is it possible that a flour you are using is contaminated? Do you eat out? There are many possible ways gluten could...

I'm not sure I've heard this question before, but it is an interesting one. Flipping through the pages could easily spread gluten around. I can only tell you what I would do in this case, which is take the book and cards outside and flip through the pages quickly a dozen or more times to get any flour out. Do the same with the cards. When using either in...

There are pros and cons to an official diagnosis that everyone should consider. Once you are diagnosed you will be faced with higher life, and possibly health, insurance rates, for the rest of your life. Life insurance could also be harder to get. The pros to getting diagnosed is that you can get follow up testing and care that your insurance would likely...

Clearly this is a big issue for the certification organization, and it may take lawsuits to stop this from happening. You can't blame the GFCO for this though, as it is clearly rogue food companies putting this on their products without authorization. In reality, the GF and use of "gluten-free" is tough to protect via a trademark. For example, way back...

Please back up your claims with links to these "independent" tests.

Have you looked all of the inactive ingredients? Perhaps you are sensitive to one of them? I use Nature Made available at Costco, and one thing I recall is that it's very important to get fresh fish oil, as it can turn rancid if it sits for weeks before you take it. Costco has a very high turnover, thus it generally is fresh when you buy it.

Yes, this is interesting, and I do like the approach in treatment of not using drugs that cut acid production as a first resort.
