I want to try..I mean DO...a gluten free life so that, hopefully, my health issues will go away.

I highly recommend being tested for celiac disease before you go off gluten, if you haven't already done so.

I agree that you should consider getting tested for celiac disease before you try the gluten free diet.   It is a simple blood test.  Learn more about the exact tests here:

I hope you feel better soon.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      By trents · Posted

      So it sounds like Global Foods has adopted the FDA standard for "gluten free" advertising.

      Agreed, I am disappointed in the recent GFCO findings as well and definitely don't hold them in as high of a regard as I used to. I did find on the Global Foods website after posting that their required ppm limit is 20ppm, which isn't as low as I had hoped. I'll email and report back. Thx.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      Never heard of them. They give an email address so if I were you I would contact them and ask those questions. It would be wonderful if they had tighter requirements than GFCO in the sense of more frequent batch testing and even random testing. Recent news articles on this forum from back in this summer have revealed that GFCO is letting us down.

      Eye irritation 2.5 months into gluten free diet

      By pweidema · Posted

      Two things: 1. If you are using drops 3x a day you should be sure to use preservative free. The preservatives themselves can cause irritation. 2. If the problem does not resolve, you may want to have a rheumatologist check for Sjogren's. There appears to be a relationship between celiac and Sjogren's.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      By cvernon · Posted

      I have purchased Roastery Coast nuts in the past and just went to purchase some and noticed a different gluten free certification on their packages (used to have GFCO certification) that I've never heard of before. Anyone have info on this certification company Global Food and what their requirements are for companies to be certified (ppm limit, audits, testing, etc)?  Thx.   https://www.globalfoodcert.org/
