I'm a mom on a mission. My son Joshua was diagnosed with celiac disease on Jan 23, 2019, after being sick for over 2 years. A blood test and endoscopy confirmed his diagnosis. In my research, I learned that the average time to diagnosis is 6-10 years in the U.S. We started a podcast This Crazy Celiac Life to help spread the word about CD and to support people with Celiac Disease and NCGS.

Today, we're talking to Dr. Tang. What are your chances for a false negative blood test for Celiac Disease? Also, Gluten Sensitivity is the center of the wheel.

Blood tests for celiac disease only test for 1 or 2 antigens, but the body can produce over 70 different antigens for Celiac Disease. Also, think of gluten sensitivity as a wheel with spokes coming off it like acne, PMS, Celiac disease, diabetes, gallstones, non-alcoholic liver disease, anxiety, depression, and insomnia. Please leave us a review at Apple Podcasts. Dr. Tang may be reached at wwwrejuvemedical.com. Thanks for listening and have a gluten-free day!

Insects are protein that includes all nine essential amino acids; they’re a prebiotic fiber, very high in antioxidants, a perfect Omega 3:6 high in B12, Calcium, Zinc, Iron, and more.
