Spelt has gluten, and I think rye has a little. It's just not as much and

not the wrong kind like wheat has developed over the years. I think rice

crackers are gluten free.

<<I think rice crackers are gluten free.>>

As with all things, check the label. If they are 100% rice, then yes they

are gluten free. But you'd be amazed how many cracker products sneak some

wheat in...

Thanks, I was asking for someone who is allergic to gluten rather than just

for the BTD.

He isn't a Celiac, but just can't digest gluten. He has horrible sulpurous

gas and stomach upset when he eats foods with gluten. When he leaves it

alone he is okay.

Hi Vicky,

The blood test won't register an allergy unless you've been eaten

gluten prior to the test.

Thanks ita. I love how doctors give tests without bothering to learn to do

them

properly!

Doctors have said I don't have a gluten (celiac) issue but all the comments

on this board make me wonder.

My question is I've had a chronic fatigue issue off and on for years. Why

would I have a fatigue slump, feel perfectly normal for years, then suddenly

have a seven-month relapse if this was gluten related?

I felt 100 percent normal from 2005 through the summer of 2010 but have been

in a fatigue slump the past seven months after dealing with a similar issue for

six months at a time in 2002, 2003 and 2004. Each spring it would improve then

return in the late summer.

If gluten truly is an issue for me, why wouldn't it be a constant problem

instead of an off and on deal?

Like many auto immune diseases, sunshine, vitamin D seems to play a role. Sunshine is now a recommended treatment for MS. For reasons noone knows for sure, sunshine seems uplifting, converts cholesterol into vitamin D3, and most likely other things, those things in turn seem to affect the immune system positively. Lack of sunshine is possibly your problem, ends in the fall etc.

Celiac disease is not a problem unless the immune system attacks the small intestines causing them to become inflamed, and then no digestion takes place, and you suffer chronic fatigue syndrome.

I would look to LDN to modulate the immune system, vitamin D3, five-ten thousand units daily, and as much sunshine as practical to resolve your problems. Have you tried Betaine HCL, enzymes to help w/ digestion?

I first became aware of enzymes when feeding, tending some fifty hunting dogs, I was using a middle of the road dog food which had wheat along with bone and meat meal. I offered k-zyme w/

my dogs improved dramatically, they appeared to being feed the most expensive dog food available and had loads of energy. I think the k-zyme really helped the dogs break down the food properly as it aided their digestion, they of course did not have celiac, but wheat protein is the most difficult of most foods to digest. Researchers are saying fifty percent of those over forty do not produce suffecient hydrocholoric acid, ie betaine hcl to digest their food, but fifty percent of the people do not have celiac disease, but would most likely become celiac positive over time.
