It is very important to eat strictly gluten-free to prevent other potential complications from developing.

I know she has/does occasionally have some foods containing gluten accidentally but she shows no side effects it seems? And often she will eat that'may contain traces of gluten'. What do you think about this not-very-strict approach to the diet?Gerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06486934065932310879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190754852257506890.post-40218809510383054762010-05-20T19:42:13.670-04:002010-05-20T19:42:13.670-04:00Awesome list!

One of the things I've discovered lately is that oats actually have a protien that's really similar to gluten, it's called avenin, that's why many coeliac people can't tolerate oats.<br />Love your blog!Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13442547969239559022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190754852257506890.post-68269674288208578402009-12-22T19:25:38.692-05:002009-12-22T19:25:38.692-05:00That's a great list of facts.

It is unfortunate that many people do not find out about #1 until it is too late and they don't want to go back on gluten.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221262499855798850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190754852257506890.post-42109387928533284172009-12-16T13:54:58.083-05:002009-12-16T13:54:58.083-05:00Hi Erin.

I was just trying to illustrate a point that for some people, they may accept fatigue and an occasional migraine as part of life and no big deal. Certainly, people who are undiagnosed with celiac disease, may have severe migraines and fatigue like you did and like I also did!marylandceliachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01867121103414834485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3190754852257506890.post-48966963946591503632009-12-16T13:17:29.035-05:002009-12-16T13:17:29.035-05:00Re: #5.
