Arthritis and Celiac

[Guest guest]

Does this article fully recognize that RA is an autoimmune disorder, and that CD is an autoimmune disorder?

I don't see much of either -- at a fast read, it seems to present eating GF as an allergic imperative, not an autoimmune one.

Hi

Yes, there's a connection! I personally have experienced this and have seen it in some of my patients too. Here's a link to a good article by Dr. Wangen and his website. He's got a good site with great information.

Dr. Wangen spoke to our gluten intolerance group a couple of months ago.  Dr. Wangen and Kupper from NW Gluten Intolerance Group are the two best speakers we have ever had.  He was very knowledgeable and a good speaker.

I don't want to second guess, but my interpretation is that he says they are both autoimmune disorders AND that symptoms of both can be alleviated with a GF diet. You may want to contact him directly; he's very approachable! You might also be interested in his book, Healthier Without Wheat.
