      We don't have a Trader Joe in my town, but a small local grocer has started carrying a variety of Dr Schaar products. I do like all of his that I have tried.

      Gluten can cause inflammation in the digestive tract and that includes the mouth.  Also, nutritional deficiencies can cause oral inflammation.  Cobalamine B12 deficiency and Niacin B3 deficiency can result in swollen irritated tongues and mouth sores.  Salt would definitely cause further irritation.... Like pouring salt in a wound....

      Absolutely disheartening. I always go for a certified product. Wondering if it’s worth the extra money and extremely disappointed in the organization for letting this happen.

      There was an old thread from 2011 that I came across but has been archived and I could not reply to it. I would like to reopen this discussion but really dive into a potential connection for a early "warning sign" for undiagnosed celiac people. Let me give some back story. I was diagnosed with Celiac disease in June of 2023. How long I had it before? I can't say for certain, because my wife and I had been on and off keto diets, which naturally I would cut out gluten containing food. However, there was an instance I went into the ER about 4 years ago for potential appendicitis, but that was ruled out as "nothing". Looking back it would be the pains in the abdomen from being "glutened".  Prior to being diagnosed I would always say our food needed less salt because it tasted to salty. My wife would always point out, "No, it could use more". Most people around me would say it's not too salty, and I would chalk it up to having a sensitivity to salty foods. I did not make this correlation until after my bloodwork had came back to normal range after eating a gluten free diet. In the span of four months I brought my tissue transglutaminase IgA results from a 45 down to a 4. After that, I did not go out of my way to focus on was my food "too salty" or not, I just never really mentioned that the food I was eating was too salty. In fact, I would find myself adding salt to foods. It wasn't until I had been glutened about 13 months into my gluten free diet, that the few days afterward I made a comment "This is too salty". As soon as those words left my mouth, I was like "Wait a second!", and said to my wife "what if all this time I thought the food was too salty was because of eating gluten?". Now, I know everyone's body reacts differently to to celiac disease whether someone is asymptomatic or if they have symptoms what symptoms do they have. I'm not saying I'm right, but I would be curious to know other's experiences and ways we could help other undiagnosed people get the proper medical treatment they need, by common early warning signs. So, on this old thread:   Some people explained the change was after, but I would be curious to know your experience! 1. My question(s) to the ones that experienced this after a gluten free diet, was it because you other more serious symptoms were occupying your mind while eating gluten that you never really noticed the "too salty" experience? 2. Is it possible that you had been accidentally glutened during your gluten free transition that spiked this reaction?       (Some context to this one: The reason I was able to get my numbers down so low in the 4 months after being diagnosed, was I went "over the top", We stopped going out to eat, we through out all our food, we threw out ALL of our cookwear/utensils/glasses/plates/cutting boards and I do mean EVERYTHING, and started with new, because I didn't want to be hindered by "hidden gluten". My wife tells me I have the tendency to go to the extremes 😄 ) Hope everyone finds this topic interesting and fun at the same time. So please, tell me your experience on this subject!

      Since your symptoms are so severe and obvious, I can't really think of a compelling reason to get the confirmation, especially when weighed against some of the downsides of having an official diagnosis that are mentioned in the thread I shared. For people in the UK and other countries where their health care system offers food subsidies for those with celiac disease it does make sense--and most of those counties also have universal healthcare where the diagnosis would not be a factor.
