Celiac diagnosis
TrinaP replied to Vickey Matteson's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
@Vickey Matteson I totally get that. My dad was diagnosed at 78 and he’s a silent celiac. He consumes gluten quite often but I try to give him a break because at that age I might just say “screw it” as well!!! 🤣 -
Celiac diagnosis
TrinaP replied to Vickey Matteson's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yes, it’s called “silent celiac.” I have two family members who have this. One of which doesn’t eat a gluten free diet because she doesn’t think it does damage if she doesn’t have symptoms.

Question for those avoiding dairy (casein)?
TrinaP replied to Jmg's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I have been Celiac diagnosed since 2015 and I found when I was first diagnosed I seemed to bloat a lot from a large amount of dairy. After taking it out for 6 months I tried to reintroduce it (drinking glasses of milk) and it didn't go well. I'm fine with yogurt, cheese and other things but not in large amounts. I recently started looking into this casein...
