Subject: request for Elisa test info summary
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

these Elisa Act people giving lecture at local health food store said that if you do
test positive for gluten...take it out of diet for period of time then when feeling better reintroduce it and if you feel ok then you're no longer gluten "allergic". 2 lecturers said this!..I need more definitive info. The test is popular - people consuming gluten despite test showing sensitivity... is there such a
thing as a gluten allergy/intolerance that can just go away? thought I had this nailed down but sometimes people blur the edges ...Donna
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Donna,  Our health food store owner said she "had" celiac, was gf for 8 years, some people came to town talking "desensitization therapy" using gliadin.  She had the therapy, said she can now consume gluten without any symptoms...I suggested she have some tests to determine colon health since cd can be asymptomatic in nature.  She says she's cured.  Don't know if its the same test but the "dr" lives in Rexburg, ID.  They definitely claim that it can be cured.  pretty scary...sounds like it would work if a person had allergies, but I'm very sceptical about it in ref. to cd.  Snake oil?  I'm curious, too, but not willing to take a chance.  Hoping the lines will be clarified.  - Kate  (This is my first reply - hope I did it right :})
