Who knows. It's plausible. Maybe worth looking into a bit more with a more powerful study. Problem is depression by its very nature is a subjective assessment, even though it is medically evaluated with a Mental Status Examination... It's not like an MRI, blood marker or Physical exam finding.
So hard to make an overly valid study, but something to think about.

Except it's been found that non cealic gluten sensitivity is unlikely to exist. Whoops0 -

I know there is debate and literature supports both views (existence and nonexistence). If you wouldn't mind posting the literature you are going by? If not, that's fine too. I just like making discussions literature-based as much as possible. Having access to more studies (that support or refute) is always a good thing.0 -

Yes, thanks that's the one that sticks out in my mind too. Like I said I'm fully aware of evidence for and against and I appreciate you dialoguing this way rather than your first response. Thanks again.0 -
I believe it is one of the things that screws with my moods. Two of my aunts have diagnosed celiac. So who knows?0

Hi. My name is Wendy and I would like to connect with others who suffer from cealic and other allergies that cause bloating, weight gain, sinuses, and/or dermatitis.0

The first sign of many autoimmune diseases is depression.0

I have come to the conclusion that she science community has no freaking clue. The "good for you, bad for you, causes cancer " list changes weekly.0

I have coeliac disease and I get depressed that I can't have gluten. My favourite shopping centre now has a Krispy Kreme. FML.0

I have a lot of stomach issues to, dairy, gluten, corn etc. Going to a naturopath was very helpful, as she tested me, and found out I have extremely low stomach acid. She put me on Swedish Bitters, and a couple other things, and I feel like a new person!

Here is recent evidence in support of the fact that NCGS does infact exist
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25701700
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25734566
As well, the last trial confirms what makes sense from an evolutionary biology standpoint, that regardless if you have symptoms or not, the gut does have permeability response to a food that was never a dietary staple prior to the neolithic revolution.0 -

Not exactly. The conclusions drawn by the media were not warranted by the study itself. In the study, they picked people diagnosed with non celiac gluten intolerance...for the study to see if it exists. Which really means they are not testing whether gluten intolerance exist. They're testing to see if the medical community can TEST accurately for a condition that may or may not exist. And that, if it exists, we know little to nothing about, including what it might do to the body, which would alter what potential markers can be tested for.
So the conclusions really should be more about the test results, not the condition. The end result is that participants diagnosed as having gluten intolerance were not found to have gluten intolerance when certain physical markers were used as a testing method. That doesn't mean that gluten intolerance doesn't exist. It means that either our methods for diagnosing gluten intolerance or our methods for detecting it are inaccurate, you know?0 -
Another interesting study on depression, that could relate to intolerances possibly, or many other conditions - http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/288715.php0

Trust your body. Signals such as bloating, lethargy and gas are your body's way of telling you that it doesnt like what your feeding it. Isolate what impacts you negatively and remove it from your diet. Any inflammation in your body due to allergies or intolerance will greatly inhibit your ability to lose weight. Everyones body is different, how something affects you wont neccessarily be the way it affects someone else. Regardless of the studies...the scientific proof....the opinions....trust yourself and your body's ability to tell you what it needs. When you find the formula that works for you then you will feel the difference.0

I'm celiac too, and I have the same issue. I get depressed every time I walk by the pretzel place in the mall... wow, do they smell good!

lol... It's the cinnamon buns that get me!!! Although having celiac disease is a blessing too... We eat real food (or at least I do... Don't want to eat expensive processed junk).0 -
I don't have any issues with gluten, but I am extremely grateful there isn't a Krispy Kreme anywhere near my twisted obsession with hot donuts. I once ate a dozen on the drive home from a business trip. End results were not pleasant.joepratt503 wrote: »SteampunkSongbird wrote: »I have coeliac disease and I get depressed that I can't have gluten. My favourite shopping centre now has a Krispy Kreme.
