Biopsy results over the phone
Scott Adams replied to Kelly1920's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Just know that your blood test results may be telling you the answer. Over the years many in your shoes with positive blood tests but negative biopsy results decide to continue to eat gluten, only to realize later that gluten causes them serious issues. The gut damage is typically considered the final stage of celiac disease, and it’s best avoided. -
This is great information, but I've not heard of a connection between Perioral Dermatitis and celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Do you know of such a connection?

Crazy Idea???
Scott Adams replied to Days Off's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Nepal should not be an issue with regard to finding gluten-free foods, but I would bring a gluten-free food card in Nepalese that spells out your dietary restrictions. I regularly eat at a Nepalese restaurant and their curries with rice have never caused me issues. I do take AN-PEP (GliandinX enzymes) before I eat out, and you may want to consider bringing... -

This is an older article written by a Ph.D. on distillation that may help skeptics better understand the process: -

So I can't see the scale used for each of the tests you had, however, it's clear that you are high on several of them. Did you ask your doctor about these results? We can't diagnose you here, but it certainly looks like you've tested positive for celiac disease. Ask you doctor for clarification.

Yes, be sure your diet is 100% gluten-free and you are not getting any hidden gluten. Bananas can help slow things down, as can white rice. You may also want to be sure you are getting enough fiber...consider pure psyllium fiber. Last, you may have additional food intolerance issues. Keep a food diary to see if you may have issues with soy, corn, eggs...

It is interesting that he won't eat cooked foods. Do the foods he avoids tend to be items that would normally have gluten? The items you mentioned that he won't eat seem to be items that would normally be off limits. I wonder if he fully understands the idea that gluten-free versions of them are safe? Also, here are some kids recipes: /celiac-disease...

To me it seems that you have some pretty severe absorption issues that you should discuss with your doctor. It would probably make sense for them to check various vitamin and mineral levels in your blood, and even follow up and do celiac disease antibody tests to make sure you've been 100% gluten-free. If you eat out you should stop doing that for a while...

FDA Rules All Distilled Alcohol is Gluten-Free
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Safe & Unsafe Foods & Ingredients
Well the article you post here basically complains that it is too sensitive and it detects Gluten at lower than 20 ppm… I think most people here would think that’s a good thing not a bad thing, and it says the following (which indicates that it is still a very good tool to have with you when there is really nothing else available like it): “Nima is subst... -

Nima sensors are definitely not a bust...they are highly accurate and there is nothing comparable to them on the market. This article has more info: -

Distillation removes all traces of grains...I don't doubt that recovering celiacs my not tolerate many things until their gut heals, however, drinking distilled spirits made from grains should not cause flattened villi or trigger celiac disease. -
Biopsy during COVID-19?
Scott Adams replied to alienb0yfriend's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The current recommendation for children is to diagnose celiac disease without a biopsy, and it's unclear to me why the same recommendation wouldn't also be true for adults. More and more doctors are diagnosing celiac disease without a biopsy, so perhaps discuss this with your doctor. To do the biopsy you would need to continue eating gluten daily until...
