Gluten or Gluten experiment

Hi.

A major change over the last year has been to avoid English flour, which has many addictives.

Over this time the TPO went from 104 to 77, whilst the TgAb went from 115 to 618.

The reason for this experiement was that I had read that in countries that banned these addictives had a drastic reduction in gluten intolerance issues. Has anyone else come across this?

Has anyone else experimented with this?

Is it normal for anti-bodies to change so much?

I generally feel much better, although that could also be due to increase in ferritin levels.

Antibodies fluctuate all the time. But, even if it's not having an effect on your antibodies, it's certainly a good thing to give up English flour!

Not what you're looking for?
