All of your links to their recipes lead to an error.

Comment on Top 10 Ways to Recover After Gluten Exposure by Debbie http://celiachandbook.com/top-10-ways-to-recover-after-gluten-exposure/#comment-725 Sun, 14 Feb 2016 20:45:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=12564#comment-725 Thank you, Katy for this info. I just googled to find out what I can do to help with my symptoms of being glutened and it does help and your info is very much appreciated regardless of what some know-it-all trying to cause trouble or maybe trying to intimate because he doesn’t really know anything about the subject. Most doctors don’t know much about this disease. Maybe that’s what bothers him more than anything, he might be intimidated. Please keep up the good work so we can keep getting more valuable info.

Comment on Hashimotos and The Gluten Connection by Tina Carnevale-Olavarri http://celiachandbook.com/hashimotos-and-the-gluten-connection/#comment-721 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 17:15:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=12162#comment-721 Yes, the underlying issue wasn’t your thyroid but an Auto Immune disease. It will show up sooner or later in another form, RA, MS, etc. Pale-Auto Immune protocol… =)

Comment on Top 10 Ways to Recover After Gluten Exposure by Peter Olins http://celiachandbook.com/top-10-ways-to-recover-after-gluten-exposure/#comment-720 Thu, 24 Dec 2015 16:25:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=12564#comment-720 Hi chowder12. I would be glad to discuss any of Ms. Haldiman’s recommended treatments for celiacs who have been exposed to gluten, but only with some more detailed evidence or rationale—either from her, or from you.

For example, she makes the striking claim that ”…the sulphate minerals found in Epsom salts are detoxifying. Epsom salt baths can stimulate the lymphatic system and support the immune system.”. This sounds like pure woo to me, but I’d be glad to see the evidence. (Chances are, that whenever you see the word “support”, it’s connected with a wild health claim with little or no evidence).
You mention probiotics and fermented foods: which ones? You claim that there is “plenty of science”: can you share one or two of the best pieces of evidence, with regard to celiac disease?

More generally, with a few exceptions, there seems to be surprisingly little convincing evidence that dietary microbes have “probiotic” activity—despite their popularity with the general public, and the claims of the supplement industry.

BTW I think you may be confusing arrogance with skepticism: one of the key elements of science is that, by default, something is not true unless it is proven. This is rather like a court of law, where the presumption is “innocent until proven guilty”.

A reminder that there is more unknown about celiac than known. For those of us suffering– our bodies are our laboratories. Would I try all of these non-harmful methods? Yes. Already I know from my own experience that ginger tea is helpful, as is drinking plenty of water, and daily bone broth, fermented foods, and use of probiotics (Plenty of science on probiotics and fermented foods!). Get off your high horse. You are a PhD, I am sure you can do your own research. The gut is the next frontier in science.

Comment on Hypothyroidism? Why You Should Absolutely Quit Gluten Now by Noel Seeley http://celiachandbook.com/hypothyroidism-why-you-should-absolutely-quit-gluten-now/#comment-717 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 22:47:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=12828#comment-717 I have been diagnosed with gluten sensitivity, but the test for celiac was negative, I also have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and fibromyalgia. I am wondering if there is any way to find out if they are all one and the same problem. if not, are there any other tests for celiac disease, since the endoscope was negative?

Comment on The Devastating Effects of Gluten Sensitivity and How to Test for It! by Gluten-Free Bebe http://celiachandbook.com/the-devastating-effects-of-gluten-sensitivity-and-how-to-test-for-it/#comment-715 Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:34:00 +0000 http://celiachandbook.com/?p=12620#comment-715 Wow – What a great article! I’ve been gluten-free for 6 years and have a terrible reaction to gluten if I ingest it accidentally. I recently had an endoscopy and found that I do not have celiac, but my reactions to gluten are more severe than my celiac husband. Thanks for providing this information.

American policy labeled weed a schedule 1 drug and yet it has medical benefit. I’ll go out on a limb and use my own magical powers to determine that you’re just a jerk.

Are you here because you suffer from the ill effects, or just to spread misinformation and confuse the issue. You think gmos are safe? You’ve seen the evolutionary proof that there will be no ill effects from tampering with the food chain at such a fundemental level? You are Assuming that 100 years from now there will be no change in people(who are what they eat) from the bastardization of our food supply? Pseudoscience be damned you are a psychic prophet, sir.
