About Me

Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    In the USA, food manufacturers are required to comply with the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) of 2004. This act mandates that if a product contains any of the eight major food allergens, including wheat, it must be clearly labeled. However, FALCPA does not require manufacturers to disclose the possibility of cross-contamination...

    I'm glad to hear you're seeing some improvement since quitting gluten, but I'm sorry you're dealing with such intense mood swings. This is something others in the celiac community have experienced as well. When you eliminate gluten, your body goes through a period of adjustment, and this can affect your mood and emotions in unpredictable ways. Here are...

    Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

    I will only comment on the possibility that your symptoms are related to nerve damage caused by gluten, AKA gluten ataxia, and if that is the case, besides needing to be 100% gluten-free you likely will also need to also take various supplements to help you recover. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead...

    Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy, and approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. and this recent s...

    Welcome to the forum. So you've been gluten-free for a while, is that correct? You mentioned a negative celiac disease test, can you share more about which test you took, and if possible, can you share the result with us, including the reference range of the test given? If you were not eating enough gluten before the test, it's possible that you got...

    Hopefully your doctor will clarify everything, but given your positive biopsy and symptoms that seem to be relieved when you go gluten-free, it's likely that you have celiac disease, although the normal protocol for diagnosis typically begins with a blood antibody panel, followed by an endoscopy. Let us know how it turns out! After you get the ok to...

    For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:

    Good idea regarding the GliadinX, and I've never been there, but it seems like they should be able to accommodate you if you take careful approach and talk to the chef before you order. Hopefully someone who has been there can comment. There are also many apps on the market for this, but I do well using TripAdvisor for such things.

    Both regrowth of villi, and destruction of villi happen at different rates in different people. This depends on many things, like age, dietary compliance, different immune systems, etc. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality...

    The risk of getting gluten via wheat germ in cosmetic products is very low, but for those who are super sensitive we recommend avoiding such products, as there are many alternatives without gluten ingredients.

    Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day: PS - The genetic test results don't diagnose celiac disease, but can give you what your possible risk-factor is for developing celiac disease...
