<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Recently there was a posting about a J. Internal Medicine (medical journal) article abstract on osteoporosis.This article stated that 12% of the osteoporotics in the study were found to be celiacs . (very high %) I thought it was compelling, so I printed and sent it to an acquaintance who is a local orthopedic physician. This doctor does bone density studies to screen for osteoporosis. He just now phoned me and said the posting was interesting, but he did not know what could be done if the suggested IgA antibodies blood test did come back positive. We then had a nice conversation about the gluten free diet and then he said "I will bring this up at our next meeting of bone doctors". I felt this was great professional education and suggest others might mail to their local orthopedic physicians. The problem is I no longer have a copy of who posted it originally. Could the poster re-post the article so others might do some professional education? Thanks!!Amy Eliezer [log in to unmask] Syracuse NY.
