    Modified corn starch is a source of gluten.  Many of the BBQ sauces like Kraft and Bullseye have it.  I found out the hard way.

    Not actually true. The only gluten containing grains are wheat, barley and rye. Gluten is a very specific protein found only in those three grains. Informally, you will hear of "corn gluten" but it is a misnomer. Having said that, it is no secret that many celiacs have additional food intolerances not related to gluten that generate very similar reactions. One of the common ones is corn.

      Options - 7 year old boy - Helicobacter pylori and serology

      If your son eventually becomes very symptomatic, that in itself will help keep him on the diet. I had a friend who was diagnosed roughly the same time as me and she used to tell me a lot that she could get away with eating certain gluten containing foods. (Not a good thing to do, but she did all the same). In time she was unable to tolerate them anymore...
