Xantham Gum, bothers many, dairy bothers many celiacs also especially newly diagnosed ones, yeast can cause issues in combination with sugars and carbs.....of course any of the seasons or other grains could always have CC.....but very unlikely. -_- I personally just get grain free pizza crust like Califlour Foods plant crust to also avoid the dairy, Toast it on a stone to desired crispness, then add my own sauce and vegan cheese and toppings then back in the oven to melt them. Heck sale right now on 5pack bundles of 10 crust. 5for55 code at checkout Open Original Shared Link

Agreed. Dairy and xanthum gum can be irritating. This ingredient list is overall safe.

I really miss Pizza. I've tried many different brands but never that good. I stick with the Freshetta gluten-free pizza. It has the CSA symbol on it meaning that it has gone through some of the strictest tests there are and can test down to 5ppm I think. It's about as close to the real deal that I've come across.

I’m new to this page and found it by typing “Teff flour reaction” into google.

I have been gluten-free for three years after doing the Whole30 food elimination/reintroduction plan.

I have never been as sick as I was yesterday since my first introduction of wheat three years ago - I had purchased Udis “New” gluten-free whole grain bread and didn’t think twice about eating it - I typically get the Millet and Chia, but they were out.  Anyway, after finishing my sandwich I was so, so, sick - like within minutes.  After recovering, I decided to compare ingredients in the bread with other things that I’ve eaten and been fine (X-gum being one).  The only thing I thought it may be was Teff flour - that’s the only thing I don’t think I’ve had before.  I have emailed Udi’s to see if they will tell me what the “New” in their new recipe is - until then, no more Udi’s for me and that is a bummer!

I used to buy the Udis' millet chia bread also.  I don't like the new Udi's bread recipe though.  So I tried Sam's Choice gluten-free bread from Walmart.  It's cheaper and better IMHO.  Not sure if I'll ever try Udi's again.  The first loaf I got of their new recipe the slices were not baked all the way through and were wet in the center.  So not a great deal at all for $8.

I never buy Udi's. It's way too expensive. I like Three Bakers breads. Cheaper, never had any issues, and the company was started by a family with celiac disease. I too don't feel good after eating Udi's hamburger buns for some reason. One bread I've read about to avoid is the LiveGFree brand. It's the Aldie store brand.  LiveGFree makes all sorts of "gluten free" products that were certified by the GFCIO but then had a voluntary statement on the back that said "may contain wheat". That was a few years ago but when I looked it up recently, it looks as if they dropped the product line and are trying to bring it back as new. Be careful. I'm going to Aldie today and will check it out. Maybe the problems were corrected?

      Hi all, I was diagnosed by blood work about 2 months ago and have since went on a strict gluten free diet. I have an endoscopy in January and the GI dr said nothing about staying on gluten for it; hes aware i went no gluten. starting to heal symptoms include: (this is huge) sensation coming back to genitals and when having a bowl movement. everything has been numb for a long time down there including lower belly button area. good size (not abnormal) bowel movements once a day or every two days. small dot size wart just fell off my finger that was there for years. have not broke out with a cold sore this winter (every winter prior for years i would develop a cold sore on my lip) Ongoing issues I don't sweat. not from my hands, or armpits or feet. I do not get butterflys in stomach. my hands have been so dry for years ive been using a crack cream as they crack and bleed very severely in the fall and winter.  (since going gluten free ive not used crack cream but they are still very very dry and chapped/flaky, no sweat or moisture in palms of hands at all. I dont crave food. i have no cravings at all, not for pizza, ice cream , nothing. my cravings are dead. smell of foods kinda make me hungry, but my stomach blocks it. pins needles in feet get weak legs standing up from sitting and dizzy, things almost turn black. i cannot tolerate veggies or vitamins. Iam vitamin D deficient according to my Dr and Ive tried vitamin D pills. they give me a massive migraine for 8 hours and upset my stomach. the heat from the direct sun make me extremely tired to the point of wanting to pass out. again i don't sweat. broccoli gives me a migraine headache as well. mushrooms, bell peppers burn my stomach. fruits burn my stomach, fats (peanut butter, any oil or fat from meats make me sick to my stomach for a couple hours or longer. salt and pepper burns my stomach. all these issues cause pain at my belly button area and expand to the rest of my upper stomach and sides the more i ingest through out the day. I currently eat bland basmati rice, chicken, pork chops (fat trim), boiled russet potatoes no skin for three meals a day. my snacks are gluten free ground buckwheat flour pancakes. (just water, no oil , salt, dairy.) how am i to get vitamins in my system if i cannot tolerate them in my stomach? i mentioned epidermal vitamin patchs but dr said no. why cant i stand the heat from the sun ? why cant i sweat? thanks for any info.

      Because you have significantly reduced your gluten intake over a considerable amount of time, it is likely that you will test negative on the antibody tests. However, if the $112 for the Quest test is not a burden, it wouldn't hurt to try. It tests for total IGA (to ascertain if you are IGA deficient) and tTG-IGA. If total IGA is deficient, it can result in false negatives in other IGA tests. The tTG-IGA is the single most popular test ordered by physicians. The Quest test is not a complete celiac panel by any means (refer to the linked article above) but it might be a good place to start. Personally, I think you know enough to conclude that you need to get serious about avoiding gluten, whether you have celiac disease or NCGS. Human nature being what it is, however, many people seem to need an official diagnosis of celiac disease in order to stay on the bandwagon. Otherwise, they seem to rationalize cheating on the gluten-free diet. And there is this misconception out there that NCGS is inconvenient and uncomfortable but not harmful so it's okay to cheat. The more we learn about gluten-related disorders the more they seem to not fit into our neat little black and white categories. By the way, celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is classified as an autoimmune disorder.

      These responses are all extremely helpful, ty.  Really good reminder about omega 6.  I also know I'm low in zinc; I took the zinc test where I drank it on a spoon and couldn't taste it.  To that end, I try to eat a lot of oysters.  I do think it would be a good idea to get the blood test.  Two questions: 1-  Is there any reason you wouldn't recommend that I just buy and take a test like this as a first step? 2- I've been somewhat gluten free since ~Jan 2023 (technically organic, gluten free, soy free, light on dairy).  I eat a lot of meat, vegetables, rice -- a common breakfast for me is three eggs and a sausage link, and I can't remember the last time I had a sandwich or bread.  However, because in my mind I didn't think I had an allergy, and I more was doing gluten free to avoid artificially iron-enriched foods, I do make exceptions.  I'll eat breaded calamari.  When my Dad visits, I split mozzarella sticks with him because he loves them so much.  I'll eat the "gluten sensitive" items at a restaurant and if they asked, "is cross contamination ok?",  I always said yes.  Based on that, since I never probably fully eliminated gluten, but it was significantly reduced... is that good enough to take the blood test?  Because the pain in my side gets SO bad (really sometimes I can't function, and I absolutely thought I was dying), I am hesitant to do the gluten challenge.  Would it make sense to take the test, and if it's negative, then consider doing the challenge and seeing if I can deal with eating the bread every day? Thanks again!

      For me, with osteoporosis, Celiac and more than 1 heart condition, the slower, safer route is preferable.  I'm on 5 meds per day.  Too much of anything can disturb absorption of this or that. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.  I'm gone for a few days.
