  1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicinal_clay Seems like the only proven benefit of healing clay is to counteract bone demineralization in space travel. It also can affect the efficacy of some prescription meds, so that must be considered.
  2. This is a common issue with gluten-free baking. I would try turning the temp down and increase the baking time. That would give the interior of the loaf more time to solidify. And then maybe also turn the temp back up for the last part of the baking cycle if you want a little crust on the surface. It will require some experimentation. It also may be...
  3. Any feathers yet on those developing duck egg embryos? I think I'll pass on that one. Haven't tried duck eggs but I tried goose eggs once. Didn't like them. Tasted very different than chicken eggs.
  4. True. Forgot the OP's physician suggested a ketogenic diet.
  5. Welcome to the forum, yojgajc! I'm 69 years old and seemed to have developed and egg intolerance as well. I can eat two poached eggs without a problem but if they are scrambled they give me a belly ache. I think that is very odd. Why would fixing them one way give issues but an alternative cooking method render them inoffensive? Anyway, I bought one...
  6. It points to the likelyhood that she is doing well with her efforts to eat gluten free. Do you have any other antibody numbers. IgA is not the only indicator and may not be the best one for evaluating celiac disease.
  7. Have you looked into SIBO? Have you looked into the Foodmap diet? In your vegan diet you are getting a lot of complex carbs, things hard to break down. Have you counted the grams of fiber you must be getting daily with all those veggies? Maybe you are getting too much.
  8. You might consider hard boiled eggs. That should not give off a cooking odor and is packed with nutrition. White rice is not a good nutrition source but will give some calories.
  9. You might talk to your physician about prescribing some anti nausea medication, like Reglan, for the time being. I just think you need some help right now getting your tummy settled down.
  10. I wonder if you are reacting to something else in the mouthwash and toothpaste besides gluten.
  11. About 10% of people with celiac disease react to oat gluten the way the react to wheat, barely and rye gluten. And I'm talking about "gluten free" oats. All cereal grains have a form of gluten but in common parlance when we talk about having Celiac Disease, gluten intolerance, gluten sensitivity or an allergy to gluten we are referring to the gluten in those...
  12. I don't mean to frighten you but I would advise getting a head CT done. Also, make an appointment with an opthalmologist. Your eye doctor is an optometrist and qualified to examine your eyes for corrective vision but not a specialist in eye diseases.
  13. Steve, celiac disease has long fingers. A host of other medical problems can be spinoffs of celiac disease. There are several other forum participants of late with gluten-related maladies who have struggled with vertigo as you do. I would offer three pieces of advice: 1. Focus on truly purging gluten from your diet. Educate yourself on how widely...
  14. LI$A, where do you live? If I were you I would take this issue up with the food services department at this hospital and push them to develop gluten-free offerings for their patients. If they are not responsive to your input, I would consider an writing an oped for the local newspaper informing the public in your community that this hospital may not...
  15. How can this be? Do you mean they are gluten-free before the liquid and the paste are put in the bottles and tubes that we see in the store? So you're saying they may experience cross contamination during the filling process or that the containers may be cross contaminated? Please elaborate on this and please supply sources for your claim.
  16. Jean, are you "reintroducing gluten into your meals" on purpose? Do you have an official diagnosis of celiac disease or some other gluten-related medical condition?
  17. You may be in the beginning stages of celiac disease or have gluten intolerance or gluten sensitivity. I would also suggest you consider SIBO. This is a good watch as well for understanding the importance of acting early on autoimmune conditions: So another option would be to do a gluten free trial and see if your symptoms improve. It would require...
  18. Recent research reported by the NIH seems to indicate that the mucosa of celiacs never completely heals when examined under high power microscopes. There can be healing at a certain level but not completely. Besides, the unraveling of the immune system is something that begins before diagnosis for most celiacs and going gluten free does not necessarily arrest...
  19. I wonder if you have developed an allergy/insensitivity/intolerance to some food or foods that do not contain gluten. This is common with celiacs because of leaky gut syndrome and the immune system dysfunction it produces. I was also going to suggest a SIBO eval but you are onto that already.
  20. Your gluten relapse over the holidays may not have been long enough to give a valid blood antibody test for celiac disease. Six to eight weeks eating a significant amount of gluten daily (equivalent of 1-2 slices of bread) is the guideline for pretesting gluten ingestion in order to ensure a valid antibody test. You might also look into SIBO testing...
  21. You may very well be correct in your assessment but it sounds like his parents are not open to the idea. That's a very touchy situation as you don't want to get pushy and alienate his parents. In the end, you are not his parents and have no control over the situation. Sounds like you have breached the idea with his parents and that is about all you can do...

    Head ache after eating

    The headaches could be triggered by something in her diet besides gluten. Over time, celiacs commonly develop allergies/intolerances to other foods besides those containing gluten. This is because of damage to the mucosal lining of the small bowel which allows larger than normal protein fractions to cross into the blood stream. We call this "leaky gut syndrome...
  23. Glad you liked it and it's good to hear you are feeling better.
  24. From your link, AZCeliacWife, I don't see any mention of their meals being gluten free.
