    “the TTG levels skyrocketed to >150 U/ML (Normal <7).” In Europe the current protocol is to diagnose celiac disease if you TTG are 10x above the high marker—no biopsy needed. Also TTG is very specific to gluten, and I’m not aware of any parasitic infections that raise TTG levels.

    More information about "Is JUST Egg Gluten-Free?"
    Celiac.com 03/20/2021 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain popular products are gluten-free, especially processed food products. One question we see a lot is about a product called JUST Egg...

    You are interpreting the blood test results incorrectly. Where you list results as “a complete reversal,” you were actually just under the borderline, so you are still high, but just not high enough to call it “celiac disease.” Clearly your body has been having an autoimmune reaction to gluten in each of these blood tests, and you probably should’ve had ...

    More information about "Gluten-Free Cocktails with Malibu Rum"
    Celiac.com 03/19/2021 - Even in light of the FDA ruling that all distilled alcohol is gluten-free, we get lots of questions about alcohol, especially flavored alcohols, such as Malibu Rum. We recently did an article clarifying that Malibu...

    In addition to oats, many celiacs, at least temporarily, have issues with casein and possibly other foods. I had 5-6 temporary food intolerance issues that mostly went away after being gluten-free for 1-2 years.

    Yes, re-check your diet and be sure there is no hidden gluten, and note that gluten-free breads often contain high levels of xanthan gum, which can cause gastro issues in some people:

    I would guess that those would be similar to the straws, where it may be possible that wheat starch is used to make the plastic, at least in Europe and other countries, but corn starch would typically be used for USA products. We may do an article on this topic at some point.

    From the article:

    The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is issuing a public health alert due to misbranding. The chicken soup product contains and declares wheat as an ingredient but has an incorrect statement of "gluten free" on the top label. FSIS is issuing this public health alert to ensure that consumers with allergic reactions t...

    Distilled alcohol, not matter its source, is considered gluten-free, but if you want to be on the super safe side just get those which are made without:

    If you went 3 weeks gluten-free before your blood test it would likely cause the results to be false negative. Be sure to read this article and you may want to reschedule and possibly re-take tests accordingly:

    Your doctor is correct, to be able to diagnose celiac disease you must eat gluten daily for a time before the tests:

    I too got full blown celiac disease directly after getting a serious stomach but while travelling in England. I thought it was food poisoning at the time, but it certainly could have been a virus like rotavirus. Interestingly, rotavirus has been linked as a possible trigger for celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=rotavirus&type...

    I agree with you about oxalates causing many people issues, and we've don't some great articles on this topic: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=oxalate&type=cms_records2&search_and_or=and&search_in=titles Thanks for the info and links, it might be time for another article on this topic. PS - Lectins are another interesting...

    My brother got on the raw milk craze for a few years. The natural probiotics that milk contains get destroyed during pasteurization, but he had issues digesting pasteurized milk, but none with raw milk. Evidently raw milk also has anti-inflammatory properties. I'm not a milk fan no matter what type it is, but do love cheese, and this analogy also holds for...

    Welcome to the forum! It might be too late now, but when I eat out I always take 1-2 GliadinX enzymes (they are a sponsor here but don't pay me to post things like this), which contain AN-PEP enzymes, which have been shown in more than 5 studies to effectively break down small amounts of gluten in the gut.

    We're kind of off this topic a bit, but should any of their trauma work on celiac disease get published in peer-reviewed medical journals we'll likely summarize it on this site, as we did with the stress-related disorders and autoimmune study. Thanks for the info.
  21. Scott Adams
    Welcome to the forum @BThompson! Trauma can definitely cause lots of stress for many people, which is never good. We summarized some research here on this, but it is highly doubtful, and I've not seen any evidence yet, that celiac disease or any other autoimmune disease can be cured via mental therapy, although it may certainly help those affected to lower...

    I've not seen any evidence that eggs, milk or meat from animals that are fed gluten is not gluten-free:

    Going gluten-free for a while, then adding it back can cause more severe symptoms for many celiacs. There seems to be a percentage of us that get super sensitive after going gluten-free for a time. Not to discourage you, but you must weigh out for yourself the value of the end goal here, which is a formal diagnosis--it sounds like you already know what...

    It seems that cow's milk (casein) can also raise certain antibodies in some people, so consider cutting this out for a time:

    Good luck and let us know how it goes. This article might be helpful:
