  1. Your story sounds remarkably similar to mine. The first time I recall getting gastro symptoms was after a backpacking trip to Europe with several friends. I got very sick from what I believe was food poisoning, but it's possible it was some sort of virus. I was violently ill for a few days, then never really fully recovered. This started me on a quest to...

  11. Have you ever asked your doctor to do a celiac disease blood panel? Your symptoms could certainly be caused by issues with gluten, so it would be worth getting tested. Note that you need to be eating gluten daily for 4-6 weeks before any tests, so you may not want to go gluten-free until all tests are completed. Here is more info on the blood tests:

  13. Celiac.com 05/05/2020 - Experts are urging Covid-19 shoppers to leave gluten-free and dairy-free foods for medically needy celiacs, and others with real food intolerances. In many areas, panicked shoppers looking to stock up as they...
  14. Most people have few to no symptoms, but unfortunately all the negative effects of the disease still applies to even those who are asymptomatic. So to be tested be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all tests are completed. Feel free to share your blood results if you like.
  15. Yes, considering that ~1% of the population has celiac disease, and maybe ~10-12% gluten sensitivity, and maybe only around 10-20% in the USA are diagnosed, it's a big problem.
  16. In general the only time I've heard of mass screening for celiac disease was in European countries with single payer health care systems. Screening early and treating celiac disease can save a great deal of health care costs.
  17. Celiac.com 05/04/2020 - The demise of the Nexvax2 vaccine for celiac disease, coupled with more research that shows regular gluten ingestion for most people with celiac disease, points to a more prominent roll for enzymes, but absent a...
  18. The benefits of getting tested include follow up care like blood antibody screening for dietary compliance (although my doctor doesn't really do this routinely unless I ask for it!), and possible screening for other issues that can arise from years of untreated celiac disease. Some people need an official diagnosis to help them stay on the diet for life...
  19. You certainly have symptoms that are consistent with celiac disease, and if your symptoms go away when gluten-free it is even more likely. You do need to eat gluten daily for at least 4 weeks to get tested for CD. Before you go GF perhaps you could get a blood test for it?
  20. It sound to me like the OP wants shelf stable, long life products, but perhaps the can clarify.
  21. Have a look at: https://www.alpineaire.com/us/us I’m not sure if this is what you’re looking for.
