Lactoferrin and gluten cross-reactive foods


Gloria L

Recommended Posts

Gloria L Enthusiast

I know that milk is one of the gluten cross-reactive foods. I'm also lactose intolerant. My problem is that I want to get squigle toothpaste, but they only have two choices, one with bovine lactoferrin and the other one with fluoride, which I don't want to get. I would really like to get this toothpaste because is not only gluten free but is also corn free, which is also another cross reactive food, I'm not so sure about the bovine lactoferrin. It's so hard to find a gluten free, corn free toothpaste, by the way, what about toothbrushes? are they gluten-free safe? Any advices are welcome.

You might want to look at this company's products, we did an ad review of them some time ago, but I'm not sure if they're corn-free:

Thank you Scott.

I use this one, I think it's corn free but someone more skilled in corn reactivity will have to confirm:

If it's indeed corn free you might can check their other flavors. If you have severe corn allergy there are many websites and lists made by people who have corn allergy and need to navigate the world around that.

Also I've never heard of a gluten toothbrush...unless you're sharing it with someone, so don't do that!

      I would agree. The tests do not indicate you have celiac disease. So, if you are convinced that when you eliminate gluten from your diet your symptoms improve, I would conclude you have NCGS.

      My old results are: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 6.6 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.91 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) IgA Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) IgG Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 0.3 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 46.1 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal)   Then I didn't eat gluten for six months and after I started a gluten challenge. Before the challenge I did some tests as RMJ had suggested to do. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 28 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As trents suggested I ate 6 slices of wheat bread before the tests during the challenge. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.31 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 2.13 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As I can understand I don't have celiac disease.

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

      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.
