    Yes. Modern wheat was created through mutagenesis, a type of hybridization pre-GMO technology and is exempt from GMO oversight. Norman Borlaug received a Nobel Prize for it in 1970. I do believe in better living through chemistry, but sometimes profit trumps safety.

    We conclude that the vaccination response, measured as SARS-CoV-2 IgG concentration, does not depend on 25(OH)D status in healthy adults with moderate vitamin D status. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34829945/ Does not seem like anyone has looked at its effect on people with low or deficient vitamin D status who are vaccinated. Do you know...

    If it doesn't come in a box or bag, it is likely gluten free.

    You have your answer. The issue here is your health and what makes you feel better; not whether the doctor agrees with you. As a fact out of left field, the Icelandic Eskimos never had diabetes until they started eating a "western diet" in the 1950's. Wheat is stripped of most of its nutrients in milling (except gluten) and most countries have fortification...

    Food goes into the stomach where it is mixed with hydrochloric acid. Unless you are taking something to override the feedback (PPIs). Intraluminal pH of the human gastrointestinal tract Onions have lots of Sulphur. Sulphur is an antibiotic that was responsible for saving lives before penicillin.

    I have always believed in it. Mankind managed to survive without double blind studies on what to eat for a long time. But that was before advertising, peer pressure and GMO and chromosome manipulation of wheat. For it to work you have to first rebuild your reserves of all the essential vitamins and minerals, so you are responding to needs as opposed to cravings...

    Did you try this? Put this diet in the spreadsheet and see what pops. Researchers found that milk from grass-fed cows had 147 percent more omega-3s than conventional milk and 52 percent more than organic milk. By the way, a sign of iodine deficiency is reduced sweating to preserve iodine. Dairy is a source of iodine. Grass Fed Dairy: Two birds...

    300 Signs and Symptoms of Celiac Disease Go over this list and see if it changes your calculations. Certain vitamin and mineral deficiencies can also be indicative. celiac disease is a disease of malabsorption.

    Gliaden X breaks down the accidental gluten in the stomach. Banner above. Others say it works well. I keep my vitamin D at 80 ng/ml and at that level I have had gluten, but not been "gluttoned", though at 50 ng/ml in 2019 I would feel the effects, mostly sinus congestion and itchy eyes. Benadryl did not help me. celiac disease causes malabsorption...

    My feeling is it comes frozen. Sometimes I don't touch it for weeks,

    I do understand her inability to tolerate anything. I spent a week NPO in the hospital when I had acute pancreatitis. I am glad they are addressing the potassium deficiency but sorry to hear they are not the choline. Perhaps adding a phosphatidyl choline pill with the thyroxine? Better than nothing. Hopefully the folks at Stanford will help. Keep us updated...

    It is important to evaluate for diet for deficiencies. Have you seen a nutritionist familiar with Celiac?

    Budesonide is a potent corticosteroid with low systemic bioavailability due to an extensive first pass liver metabolism. Why not consider Prednisolone. Better bioavailability and much cheaper. I paid $75 for 360 5 mg tablets last December. Often prescribed for refractory celiac disease, but not as profitable to pharmacy. For some medical insurance there...

    Low or deficient vitamin D is a common finding among Celiac Disease and other autoimmune diseases. "A study by researchers at UNMC shows vitamin D as an add-on therapy could provide some relief for chronic hives, a condition with no cure and few treatment options....Researchers found after just one week, the severity of patients' symptoms decreased by...

    Not enough potassium in the diet. Diarrhea can cause excess potassium loss which is why the World Health Organization, and many countries consider potassium status a nutrient of interest. The US 100% DV for potassium is 4.7 grams (4700 mg) daily, while most countries use 3 grams a day for the RDA. While plasma levels of potassium are regularly checked...

    What's nice is the Heritage style ends up the size of a real sandwich, not something made on melba toast.

    People who keep kosher know how. Meat from milk or gluten from gluten free. They have to be even better because of their supervisor.
  19. Wheatwacked
    With Celiac Disease you want to replenish vitamins so the target intake should be somewhere more than 100% DV and less than the RDA safe upper limit. It isn't easier but you reap the rewards.

    I hear your anger. Been there. Everything you believed in has turned on you. Give up all processed prepackaged food. Boycott the cereal aisle. Get a bottle of high dose vitamin D. See what happens. I think 10,000 iu a day is best because you want to raise your plasma vit D quickly.

    It may not be a power struggle. Maybe she just wants you to share the bliss of a gluten meal. Not unlike drinkers at a party pushing alcohol on a recovering alcoholic. They just do not understand and are oblivious. It was similar back when cigarettes were cool.

    Here's an interesting comment from the National Institutes of Health on Choline. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Choline-HealthProfessional/ "Groups at Risk of Choline Deficiency: Patients requiring total parenteral nutrition At present, choline is not routinely added to commercial parenteral solutions for infants and adults [28,29].

    Is Lithium Deficiency Real? Health Effects of Low Lithium With everybody drinking bottled water more people are becoming Lithium deficient. The 5 mg dose of Lithium Orotate is not the 600 to 1500 mg massive dose of Lithium Carbonate used for bipolar disorder. The proposed RDA is 1 to 40 mg a day. I found that with 5 mg a day I don't need the Buspirone...

    Yes. Thiamine and Choline are interdependent, and both are undervalued. I assumed that her vitamin and lipid packs include thiamine, but we know for sure she is not getting any choline.

    Try Canyon Bakehouse Gluten Free Heritage Style Honey White. It's not Wonder Bread but pretty good. Good taste and mouth feel. Keep it frozen. Nuke the frozen slices for a minute and let cool. It makes a nice sandwich. If you are Celiac there is a 44% chance that so is your little one but the symptoms are not recognized or passed off as normal.
