I don't know if any of you saw the rediculous post by buzzfeed, but it was enfuriating! I'm not going to include the link because I refuse to go back to it. I believe they were puposefully inflamitory in order to drive traffic to their site! They did, at least recognize Celiac as a real problem, but said that for anyone else who had a gluten intollerance...

Thanks! I have been trying to be more vigilant about the probiotic, but I'm still not great at it. I probably need to get an actual supplement instead of just trying to eat Kiefer. I don't konw much about Dr. Osborne, and I haven't had the chance to really do research on what he was saying, though some of it did resonate with me, so I wanted to see if...

So do you think that it is more common with people with celiac disease to have intollerances to these other glutens, and in that case, do you feel they can cause leaky gut, or any sort of damage to the intestines besides the villi?

I have celiac and have been gluten free for about 3 years now, and my aunt recently went gluten free, after a string of health issues. The thing is I still struggle with fatigue quite frequently. I feel waaaayyy better than before going gluten free, but I still don't ahve a ton of really good days. My aunt has been gluten free for about 6 months and is...

Nicole, Have you had any luck with figuring out what was making you so tired, or how to have more energy. I've been gluten-free for about 3 years now. Overall I feel so much better, but over the last few months I have been extremely tired again. I started taking vitamins and those seem to be helping, but I feel like fatigue is a pretty consistent issue...

I have been thinking about this a lot lately. I have spent many years working with people with special needs and am continually finding links with gluten sensitivity and/or celiac disease. For example many people with Down Syndrome have Celiac Disease. I also read recently that women with Celiac Disease are more likely to have children with Autism. ...

Hi, I know that this can be a sensitive subject, but I just wanted to suggest that you may want to finish getting a diagnosis for your son. I work with adults with special needs and those who were not diagnosed before adulthood are not eligible for some types of financial aid! At least at this point in time. :/

I have this same problem. I keep thinking if I try new things I will find something that won't make me sick... For me it is not so much the stomach thing as it is a headache, my stomach doesn't hurt but I do throw up and just feel terrible. I think I'm just going to give it up. I'm tired of not feeling good.

I have been Gluten-Free for about a year and a half now. Before going Gluten-Free I had no energy and was feeling depressed. After going Gluten-Free I had a complete turn around, though I would get to feeling bad here and there (usually due to accidentally eating gluten). Recently, however, I have had no energy--I don't even want to do the things I...

Oh my gosh! I know the brain fog all too well (something that is so hard to describe to anyone who has never experienced it). First I would say as a general rule of thumb I NEVER EAT AT A BUFFET. And I actually avoid Chinese restaurants all together unless with the excetpion of pei wei and P.F. Changs (which has great Gluten-Free options and they put it...

I really needed to hear this. I just got really sick from cross contamination. I posted a topic on here and only one person responded and said they never got that sick from cc. Since I am self diagnosed that made me wonder if maybe I was wrong about the whole thing. I keep fretting about it. But then I read these posts and once again felt like I was...

"Pre-shredded cheese, frozen french fries, teriyaki sauce, salad dressings and soy sauce may all contain wheat or gluten, according to the Food Allergy Gourmet" Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link free.com/celiac_disease_food_additives.htm This site says that all anti-caking agents are now gluten free. I know I read something about...

I don't know if this will help you at all, but personally I like to go bowling (I'm not very good though). I think it's a pretty fun way to get to know someone new. You still have something to do besides sit and stare at one another through awkward silences. Hiking is also fun, and if you have a dog, I have found that dog parks are a great way to meet...

My husband and I traveled 17 hours away from home for Christmas and were gone for a week. I did great staying on my diet until the very last day. We were on our way back home and had been in the car for 9 hours and I was quite hungry. We decided to stop at BK. They are fry their fries in a designated fryer, I also figured I could get a HB with no bun...

I hate the brain fog thing- and you end up sounding like a crazy person when you try to explain it. I have noticed that every time I experience symptoms like this I have been glutended. For example I had been feeling great, then all of a sudden lost my energy and felt nauseous. I didn't think I was eating any gluten, but then I found out that pre-shredded...
