  1. Celiac.com 06/13/2020 - The effects of celiac disease can vary, depending on whether the patient is following a gluten-free diet. Many of the effects of celiac disease disappear or improve significantly when the patient begins a gluten...
  2. So a gluten allergy would not be diagnosed with a biopsy, but celiac disease can be. I would ask your doctor to send you your test results.
  3. A biopsy is how celiac disease is diagnosed, rather than an allergy. It’s also possible they diagnosed you with gluten sensitivity, but you should find out for sure and let us know. You may want to discuss your results with your doctor before going gluten-free to be sure that all the tests they want done are completed, as you could get false negative r...
  4. Glucose syrup is Gluten-Free no matter its source. It has been on our safe list for over 15 years, and if you don’t believe me here are other references: https://heas.health.vic.gov.au/early-childhood-services/allergy-and-intolerance/coeliac-disease https://www.glutenfreeliving.com/gluten-free-foods/gluten-free-nutrition/gluten-questions-and-answers/w...
  5. I would begin by re-examining your diet, and focus on foods you are eating regularly. Perhaps there is an issue with something. Do you eat oats or other grains? We recently ran an article which indicates that in India, many grains are contaminated:
  6. It does not include "gluten-free" on the package, but by ingredient it looks to be naturally gluten-free: https://www.oetker.co.uk/uk-en/our-products/home-baking/icings-marzipan/soft-fondant-white-icing-ready-to-roll
  7. I am sharing this celiac disease fundraiser:
  8. I would avoid processed foods and try to stick with whole foods that you personally prepare. I’d avoid refined sugar as well. I had issues with corn, milk, tomatoes and chicken eggs for about two years after my diagnosis, and would swear back then that I’d gotten cross contamination with gluten until I realized that I had additional, temporary food intolerance. ...
  9. Can you list the full name of the test that is elevated? Normally antibodies go away after being so long of a gluten-free diet. Is your diet 100% gluten-free? If you eat out it probably isn’t.
  10. If you’ve already noticed a strong connection between the blisters appearing whenever you eat gluten, the chances are it’s probably DH. On one hand I understand why you’d not want to eat gluten daily for weeks to verify this, but on the other if you’ve already found the answer to their cause, do you really need a formal diagnosis? The downside to a diagn...
  11. Celiac.com 06/11/2020 - Who should get screened for celiac disease? Traditionally, doctors test for celiac disease, based on the following factors: Signs and symptoms of malabsorption, including chronic diarrhea with weight loss...
  12. Celiac.com 06/10/2020 - Asparagus is in season at the moment, so now is a perfect time to try out this delightful asparagus recipe. These patties are a blend of fresh asparagus, eggs, gluten-free bread crumbs, and some seasoning. They...
  13. I will say that if the Amy's product was labelled gluten-free, it likely is, but certainly there have been products labeled gluten-free that did contain gluten, and companies do occasionally have manufacturing problems. Amy's is a local company here in Santa Rosa, CA and they won't advertise on Celiac.com, at least according to someone I spoke with...
  14. If your doctor won't test you (it really sounds like you need find a different doctor) another option is a self home test from https://imaware.health Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all tests are completed.
  15. We did an article on this topic, normally grits are gluten-free and safe for celiacs:
  16. Celiac.com 06/09/2020 - What can science tell us about celiac disease screening rates and glycemic outcomes of a gluten-free diet in patients with type 1 diabetes who are asymptomatic for celiac disease? A team of researchers recently...
  17. Is she able to take Claritin? This is what I use for allergy sinus issues.
  18. We've got lots of articles here on the connection between celiac disease and liver disease: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/liver-disease-and-celiac-disease/
  19. Recently we ran an older article on someone's battle with health issues and gluten. Unfortunately the author did not mention the specific tests that were done, but the person who wrote it finally found relief from a multitude of symptoms, despite negative tests for celiac disease. They likely fall into the non-celiac wheat sensitivity category, but in any...
  20. 06/08/2020 - Many doctors and celiac patients have found that a gluten-free diet seems to improve some autoimmune diseases associated with celiac disease. A team of researchers recently set out to determine the effect of a gluten-free...
