  1. Definitely get your doctor’s opinion on this, but give. everything you’ve shared I thing you’ve got two kids who need to be gluten-free. Be sure to share the study on rates of celiac disease among families with your doctor. They may not have the latest info on this.
  2. First, were there any number associated with the top 3 results that say "in range"? Also, it would be very helpful if you can include the scale for each test, so the normal vs. high marks, as different labs use different ranges. I don't know what the normal was for the last test which was high, so please let us know the cut-off for normal vs. high...
  3. The National Celiac Association San Diego invites you to a free Zoom Webinar: A Gluten-Free Makeover: Nutrition Assessment & Education for a Healthier You. Saturday, January 30, 2021 at 10:00-11am PST Guest Speaker...
  4. Hi @Tanechka, welcome to the forum! The way you've described things, where you've likely not gone more than a few days without eating significant amounts of gluten, it's unlikely that if you did have celiac disease your blood antibody levels would drop significantly, but they may be lower than they would be if you had been eating it daily for ~12 weeks...
  5. I agree, and you should ask your doctor to screen you for it via a blood test: If you don't have insurance, or your doctor won't cooperate, besides getting a new doctor, look into home celiac tests which can be done for around $100.
  6. Celiac.com 01/27/2021 - Most folks with celiac disease know that it's an immune-mediated intestinal disease marked by lifelong intolerance to dietary gluten in people with certain genetic types. Researchers have long suspected that microbial...
  7. Celiac.com 01/27/2021 - The effects of celiac disease are typically gastrointestinal, though there have been rare cases where celiac disease can manifest with psychiatric symptoms and behavioral disturbances. In one recent case, a...
  8. Your mother made it to 100...and your 77 amazing! It does sound like she was, at the very least, gluten sensitive. A recent study indicates that first degree relatives of celiacs have a 44% chance of also having it, so the fact that you were diagnosed with it, depending on which side of your family the genetic marker came from, indicates that the odds...
  9. Red grapes naturally contain sulphites, which some people are allergic to, and if so they can cause inflammation. Some wineries add more sulphites during processing for various reasons, so this issue can be magnified with red wines.
  10. Most films I've seen on this topic don't exactly resonate with younger people, and tend to be on the boring side. I think the cinematography, editing, and the style the director used sends a powerful message, and one that will also resonate well with younger people. Great job!
  11. I recommend you join our forum and post this question there.
  12. The test is supposedly accurate and can detect gluten you've eaten very recently. I've never tried it or known anyone who tried it.
  13. Celiac.com 01/26/2021 - 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 coconut water. Specifically, is coconut water gluten-free and safe for people...
  14. @DrakeHeyman welcome to the forum! This thread is older, so some of the original posters may not reply, but your symptoms are common among those with untreated celiac disease. Have you been diagnosed with CD, and if so, are you on a gluten-free diet? The good news is that many of the symptoms will disappear in most cases, provided a person with celiac...
  15. @Talavar welcome to the forum! Are you a diagnosed celiac, and are you taking diatomaceous earth to help you recover?
  16. I've not heard of the company, but do they offer gluten-free lunches at elementary schools? I've seen colleges make the shift and offer gluten-free options for students, but did not know that other schools might be doing this.
  17. Hello @Kwinks428 and welcome to the forum! Do you also have celiac disease or gluten intolerance? If not, or you've never been tested for celiac disease, your symptoms could also be due to gluten sensitivity, so you might want to get tested. If you do have CD, then be sure you're diet has been gluten-free, as many celiacs end up getting small amounts...
  18. I understand now. For over the counter medications keep an eye on "inactive ingredients," as that is where gluten would usually be found if there is any. Feel free to ask about specific products, or ingredients if you need further help, and welcome to the forum!
  19. Celiac.com 01/25/2021 - What's the connection between celiac disease, and cognitive impairment? Does the connection change over time? Does following a gluten-free diet help reduce cognitive impairment? There really hasn't been much good...
  20. We don't have them on our list, so you would need to contact them. In the USA they could not advertise it as gluten-free.
