  1. Yes, in 5 months my joint pains completely disappeared. It was a gradual process to this point. I had been heading for a hip replacement. I refused to take any medication. I did not want to go the Ibuprofen route etc as all these meds come with their side effects. I was very stiff in the mornings, but the more I moved around, the better it felt. I used to...
  2. The harmful protein in oats is Avenin. Of the 4 grains, wheat, rye, oats and barley, oats has the least harmful substance of all. And oat bran has even less. Apparently this protein does not flatten the villi, but I believe it still stimulates T-cells to attack the bodily tissue in an autoimmune way, even though the sufferer may not realise it. If I eat ...
  3. No, I'm actually saying that the type of protein molecule in oats, although different from the other 3 grains, is still damaging internally, even though you may not feel it as having a negative impact.
  4. I believe that even "pure" oats are not 100% gluten free. 3 major supermarkets in UK, Tescos, Sainsburys and Waitrose, conducted a test on all their "Free from" foods that were labeled "Gluten free oats" about 7 years ago. They used a new food-testing machine. All these products showed more than 20 parts per million of gluten which is the cut-off point. The...
  5. Are you still eating oats? Oats are not 100% gluten free, including so-called "gluten free" oats. I would also suggest you view some of the videpos on YouTube by Dr Peter Osborne.
  6. Anxiety and depression are very much linked to celiac. When you eat any of the 4 grains wheat, rye, barley and oats, the gluten in them releases harmful peptides called gluteomorphins that cross the blood/brain barrier and upset brain chemicals. Many other problems of the mind are also linked like autism, Attention Deficit Hyperactive disorder, schizophrenia...
  7. After going gluten free, my headaches disappeared immediately, my sinusitis and drippy nose cleared up within 2 weeks, my constipation cleared up within a month, my severe rheumatoid arthritis cleared up totally in 5 months. I have now been gluten free for over 30 years!
  8. Have you had the following tests? AEA-IgA TtG - IgA TtG-IgG Total serum IgA These are the tests for gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. You have to be eating a normal gluten-laden diet at the time the blood sample is taken.
  9. This link is worth reading https://www.ift.org/news-and-publications/food-technology-magazine/issues/2011/february/columns/foodsafety-and-quality
  10. This ruling makes me very suspicious. In the support service for celiacs that I run in Durban, South Africa, I have always advised sufferers that they may have TRIPLE distilled alcoholic products. These may be LITE beers, or triple distilled whiskies. There is a fairly new machine that will test the presence of gluten in foods. 3 major supermarkets in UK...
  11. My eldest son stuttered sporadically from the age of two years until 18 years when he started on the gluten free diet, after which the stutter disappeared.
