    Ms is rare (I am going from my google search) at about 300 per 100,000. Of those about 11% also have celiac. So the rate of people with MS and Celiac is about 30 per 100,000. I don't think you have mentioned having any symptoms at all so far besides the celiac diagnosis. Likely how it works is if someone has a number of symptoms on a gluten free diet...

    If you don't already have other immune disease, you are unlikely to develop them now. The treatment for Celiac disease is a strict gluten free diet, avoiding all cross contamination. Untreated celiac disease leads to other autoimmune disorders. Treated Celiac disease does not lead to other autoimmune disorders or health problems. If you have neurological...

    Yes coconut milk is gluten free and safe for Celiacs.

    There isn't anything that is known to fix or reduce Celiac disease symptoms. There are a few things out such as digestive enzymes and glutamine may be useful for accidental minor cross contamination. The problem is people with celiac disease are sensitive to extremely small amounts of gluten (like even a couple crumbs is enough to damage the intestine) ....

    It is possible to have a delayed allergic response to wheat: As wheat is broken down in the digestive tract it can cause an allergic response. I haven't heard about delayed face or lip swelling after eating wheat. That sounds less likely to me but I don't know. What I read about was that some people can eat wheat fine (at first) and then when they exercise...

    Here is a bump for the thread and another link on theanine. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/342046763_Ameliorative_effects_of_L-theanine_on_dextran_sulfate_sodium_induced_colitis_in_C57BL6J_mice_are_associated_with_the_inhibition_of_inflammatory_responses_and_attenuation_of_intestinal_barrier_disrupti

    You are very likely to get cross contaminated at restaurants. I think this is a major reason why some people still have problems on a gluten free diet. Another thing you could try is just eating fruits vegetables and meat for a while. The aip diet is also very effective for treating IBS symptoms. I take b-vitamins, extra magnesium, zinc and selenium (you...

    You can also post a list of the things that you commonly eat or have a questions about. The people in the forum have lots of experience shopping and researching which things have gluten which are gluten free and which are likely to be cross contaminated. We can tell off hand if something contains gluten. Just make sure you read the labels really closely...

    Hum, I don't know. Maybe try taking magnesium (epson salt, or as a supplement) by mouth and see if the same thing happens? Or, yeah you could just eat foods with magnesium in it.

    What brand corn flakes did you use? Was it labelled "gluten free"? Some corn flakes have malted barely which is not gluten free. Oats are also a very problematic ingredient (in that some people react to all oats) and they are very likely to be cross contaminated, unless they have a gluten free label. An egg allergy sometimes may go along with...

    Are you sure you aren't getting cross contaminated? Are you eating out at restaurants? I would eat just fruit and vegetables and meat for a while to see if that helps, or if you have other food sensitivities. I wouldn't expect trans-dermal magnesium to cause any problems at this point. If you recently went gluten free it may take a while for your body...

    Rice corn and other such grains (excluding wheat, rye, barely and possibly oats) are safe to eat if someone is Celiac. A lot of foods contain prolamines (they are seed storage proteins) but they are still thought to be safe if you are celiac.

    I don't see any risk with using the same microwave so long as you use a plate and a cover.

    Some people with Celiac disease might have difficulty absorbing the proper vitamins. B12, for example, requires a number of steps in order for it to be absorbed correctly. With b12, a higher dosage will mean that some gets absorbed anyway. I would magnesium, zinc and extra b vitamins. Here is a link about vitamins. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets...

    Theanine as a mast cell stabilizer: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21344174 Mast cell activation and IBS: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6009183/ Histamine and the fodmap diet: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26976734/#:~:text=Conclusions%3A IBS symptoms are linked,of which could alter symptoms.

    Your welcome, hopefully it works or it helps at least! There is a lot of information online about how theanine helps with amino acid absorption and also down regulates inflammation pathways that are active in ibs and celiac disease. Also higher theanine consumption is associated with reduced the risk of diabetes (the study was for type 2 diabetes in Japan...

    Here are some ideas/possibilities to investigate: I would check her vitamins particularly b12. Intrinsic factor is needed in order to absorb vitamin b12, which is made in the intestine. If she has stomach inflammation I don't know if she would be able to absorb b12. There are hypo-allergic vitamins available. Vitamin b12 deficiency can cause panic attacks...

    Also consider theanine supplementation. It has neuro-protective, and strong antioxidant properties. It will help the cells in your intestine grow. http://www.phcog.com/article.asp?issn=0973-1296;year=2018;volume=14;issue=55;spage=36;epage=39;aulast=Saha

    Inositol is a modified sugar. The body can make some of it under ideal circumstances so it is not technically considered a vitamin. Some people might not absorb it very well though or their bodies might not make enough. Cells need inositol to function properly. Inositol is beneficial for treating panic attacks and also for thyroid problems such as Hashimoto...

    SIBO might be a problem for some people. There are however a lot of people on this forum who have other food sensitivities besides gluten. Gluten triggers an autoimmune response which results in damage to the intestine. The inflammation and a compromised immune system can result in other food sensitivities. Most of the time these issues will resolve on a...

    I think a positive blood test is 98% (or something like that I don't remember the exact number) accurate.

    For me I find the AIP diet helps with brain fog. Alcohol, grain and dairy seem to me to be the most problematic for me. Also you can have a doctor check if your thyroid is working properly. Thyroid disorders are strongly associated with celiac disease and brain fog. Also try to avoid pollen if you have hay fever.

    You could have other food sensitivities besides gluten. A lot of people do.... An example would be going dairy or grain free. There are also high-antioxidant diets and vitamins that could try. Some people don't feel great or get withdrawal symptoms when they go gluten free. If you feel better on a gluten free diet I wouldn't expect that to change. If it does...

    Tissue transglutaminase is a enzyme that is found everywhere in the body. It is also used to breakdown food in the intestine. When someone who is Celiac eats wheat, the combination of this enzyme and wheat causes an immune reaction. I don't think microbial Tissue transglutaminase is much different (it at all) from the enzyme found in the body naturally...
