Since you moved away from dairy, it's definitely a challenge to get enough calcium, and your point about its proper absorption is crucial—it's not just about intake, but also making sure it goes to the right places. Since you prefer food-based sources when possible, you could first focus on incorporating more non-dairy, calcium-rich foods like fortified p...

The concept of "over-methylation" as a common clinical condition is not supported by mainstream medicine. While methylation is a crucial biochemical process, the idea that people frequently become "over-methylated" and that this is linked to B6 deficiency is a speculative theory, not an established fact.

Your theory about a post-COVID hyper-reactive immune response is very plausible and aligns with what many in the community and some healthcare providers are observing. COVID-19 is known to cause significant dysregulation and inflammation within the immune system, which can take time to settle down. It's not a stretch to think that during this heightened state...

Go by ingredients--if there are no gluten ingredients it should be safe. The drug industry is very careful about contamination between runs on the same machinery, so cross-contamination is unlikely. Until they are required to disclose gluten, which they are not now required to do, they will just keep feeding people the same CYA legal line.

You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...

Hi @Tannin, in general mushrooms haven't been on the radar as a gluten threat, so I am not sure why you seem to be so concerned with commercial mushrooms like button or Portabella varieties? While I appreciate the detailed perspective from a cultivation standpoint, I think it's important to clarify that the core concern you're describing—substrate c...

While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living...

Gluten and short-term memory.
Scott Adams replied to miguel54b's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
It's interesting how a single, clear moment—like struggling during a game—can suddenly connect all the dots and reveal the hidden impact of gluten exposure. Your experience with short-term memory fog is a very real and documented symptom for many individuals with gluten sensitivity, often occurring alongside the other issues you mentioned like mood disturbances, sl... -
Reintroduction of Gluten
Scott Adams replied to Suze046's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. What you're describing is a very common and frustrating experience when reintroducing gluten after a period of avoidance, and your timeline is perfectly c... -
Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?
Scott Adams replied to Rejoicephd's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Your suspicion is almost certainly correct, and you are wise to be cautious. Draft cider is a very common and often overlooked source of cross-contact because the same tap lines are frequently used for both beer and cider; unless a bar has a dedicated line for gluten-free beverages, which is rare, the cider will run through tubing that has previously contained... -
High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods
Scott Adams replied to Mykidzz3's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Your post really highlights the financial and emotional struggle so many families face. You are not alone in feeling frustrated by the high cost of gluten-free specialty items and the frustrating waste when your daughter can't tolerate them. A great place to start is by focusing on naturally gluten-free whole foods that are often more affordable and... -
Welcome to the forum--and you are absolutely not alone in your experience with a non-celiac gluten sensitivity that presents with severe constipation and profound inflammatory consequences. While the more commonly discussed symptoms are diarrhea-centric, your reaction is a valid and documented, though less common, manifestation. It is completely understandable...

Could this be a new intolerance
Scott Adams replied to Celiacpartner's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
After years of stable management, developing new symptoms to historically safe foods like nuts and fish strongly suggests a secondary issue has developed. It is highly unlikely to be a new gluten issue if the foods themselves are certified gluten-free. The most probable explanations are a new, separate food intolerance (perhaps to a specific protein in certain... -
Gluten exposure when trying to conceive
Scott Adams replied to Skydawg's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Your doctor's recommendation to wait three months is very sound and aligns with general advice for celiac disease. While the acute GI symptoms resolve quickly, the autoimmune response and intestinal inflammation can linger, impairing nutrient absorption crucial for early fetal development. This three-month window allows your body to calm the immune response...
