  1. I've been smoking since 1963. Cigarette smoking and risk of celiac disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis
  2. This may help you feel less alone
  3. Hi @Skellig welcomt to the forum. Given your dramatic improvement on GFD you either have Celiac Disease or Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity. 1% of the world is diagnosed Celiac, 10% have NCGS. NCGS is diagnosed by eliminating Celiac and then showing improverment on GFD. What do you suppose your doctors reaction would be if you told her that even Irish...
  4. I had plantar fasciitis before the neurapathy. Rolling a tennis ball helps. Shallow knee bends under a hot shower running down the back. The goal is to relaxe and stretch the foot, calves and lower back. My sister in law went to a foot doctor and she vibrated it loose with some kind of impact hammer. Reminds me of the old days when the treatment for Carpal...
  5. The movie "Joan of Arc" had a really good scene where the Pope was suffering from gout.
  6. "Researchers are examining whether harbouring some parasites in the gut may hold answers to painful health issues such as coeliac disease." https://www.coeliac.org.au/s/about-us/research/hookworm-research Also from Coeliac Australia. Really? And they say IGG antibodies is quackery? Other than the calories and fortified vitamins and the profit...
  7. I had that, and it is not gout. The only thing that worked for the gout was the prednisone which is how I discovered the prednisone was the only thing that worked for the fibromyalgia. Back then, pre GFD, I would wake from because I stopped breathing and once awake had to pee urgently but I couldn't walk to the bathroom because of the aforementioned foot...
  8. I may be alone in this, but I consider the vitamins and minerals pills I take as just another food source. That is different from other supplement pills like DHEA, St Johns Wort, etc that are basically non pharmaceuticlal drugs. Willow Bark tea instead of aspirin for example. For testing if it is a fasting test I stop the vitamin and minerals along with...
  9. They all are a result of too much pressure in the gastrointestinal tube pressing on a weak muscle area. A giant burp with nowhere to go. Different names for different location. A hiatal hernia occurs when the upper part of your stomach bulges through the large muscle separating your abdomen and chest (diaphragm) An umbilical hernia creates a...
  10. Your improvement on GFD would indicate that gluten does affect you. Because of its addictive qualities gluten causes DENIAL. With Celiac ruled out it still leaves NonCeliac Gluten/wheat Sensitivity, for which the only diagnosis is rule out Celiac and show improvement on GFD. Your may still be getting gluten in ways you don't realize. Soy Sauce is more than...
  11. The hernias are a result of excess pressure in the gut. For example, in 2014 I was lying in bed, smoking a cigarette when I coughed and a bubble popped up in my belly button. It was one of the final factors to start GFD. In 2019 Lisinopril BP med, caused a persitant cough and one day up popped an ingiunal hernia. The prostate surgeon pointed it out but he...
  12. This right here is enough reason. You made more progress in 3 days than your doctors have in 20 years. Fix your deficiencies, especially the vitamin D. Get your homocysteine checked, high homocysteine can be caused by deficiency in B6, B12, Choline or Folate or all of them and is often found in Celiac Disease. It is an independent indicator of vascular inflammation...
  13. Trace gluten contamination may play a role in mucosal and clinical recovery in a subgroup of diet-adherent non-responsive celiac disease patients Table 1 Products allowed/disallowed in the Gluten Contamination Elimination Diet (GCED), targeting the elimination of gluten cross-contamination Patients with persistent symptoms and/or villous atrophy...
  14. If your son feels better without gluten, why force him to eat it? Other than carbohydrate calories the nutrition in wheat flour is synthetic added back after milling. Potatoes for B vitamins beans for folate. meat for iron eggs for choline. "In our study, obesity prevalence has been positively associated with wheat availability, but inversely with...
  15. Before giving up on milk, try 100% Pasture Fed. It tastes like the milk the milkman used to deliver. It's omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is 1:1, the same as fish.
  16. When the doctor is short and fat, and in the picture behind him he was slim; well, it makes me wonder.
  17. More fat, less hunger.
  18. This might peak your interest. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease? Signs and Symptoms of Celiac Disease Abdominal cramps, gas and bloating Acne Anemia Ataxia (gluten ataxia) Borborygmi—stomach rumbling Coetaneous bleeding Delayed puberty Dental enamel defects Diarrhea Dry skin Easy b...
  19. The biggest problem with milk is that in most of the world, except for Ireland and New Zealand the commercial dairies use Palmitic acid to increase volume and fat content. The trouble is that palmitic acid (C:16) raises the omega 6 content and omega 6 encourages inflamation. Old style pasture fed milk has a 1:1 omega 6: omega 3 ratio. Organic milk requires...
  20. "The reason for this is that Choline is great for thinning bile and getting these salts to break up areas of congested tissue all throughout the body. The plaque you see in these disease’s is the result of the congested material getting stuck and then drying out." https://www.panaceanutritionals.com/blog/2018/10/27/choline-the-most-important-nutrient-of-t...
  21. Many of the electrolytes and vitamins and minerals that they routinely test for with blood tests are tightly contolled by a process called homeostasis. For example, if you are not ingesting enough calcium, your body will activate backup systems that sucks the calcium out of your bones to ensure that your heart has enough to operate. Not enough choline your...
  22. It doesn't matter in the end. Either you stop eating gluten or you get sicker. Some research indicates that NCGS and Celiac are variations of Gluten Sensitivity. I would like to see if there is a difference between them in blood plasma levels of vitamin D. Do people with Celiac Disease diagnosis have lower vitamin D than people diagnosed with NCGS. Or other...
  23. As I understand it Masala is just a spice mix. Back when families made their own it varied with the family tradition, so different brands may have different mixes. What Is Garam Masala? Here's What You Need to Know About the Spice Blend
