I would like to add my 2 cents and say that most of us are not scientists 
and the information from these studies can be very misleading. Listen to 
your doctors, support groups and more importantly, your body.
Clinical studies are the means to find an alternative treatment for a 
totally gluten free diet. I am betting on Dr. Fassano to come up with this. 
He recently gave a seminar at the hospital where my daughter works to teach 
doctors how to spot and diagnose CD. He noted that a  significant side 
effect of CD is clinical depression. The knowledge that there are great 
minds looking for alternative treatments for CD gives hope to celiacs for a 
happier, healthier and easier life. The combination of a gluten free diet 
and a good attitude is the best treatment out there right now. I am grateful 
that there are people who are willing to take risks in these trials for the 
celiac community.
When my daughter was dx'd at 17 my husband and I were very depressed. She 
turned to us and said something that stuck with us and got us through. She 
said "I eat to live, not live to eat, don't worry, I'll be fine". She is a 
nurse now at a Children's Hospital where she counts her blessings every day.
