Celiac disease

Bear with me, please. What kind of testing did the nutritionist use to diagnose your celiac disease? Do you know the specifics of the tests that were run? There are specific serum antibody tests that are used to diagnose celiac disease and that is the first stage of diagnosis. If there are positives in the serum antibody tests then, normally, an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining is done to provide confirmation. Celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel and the biopsy is used to check for this. I'm not sure that a nutritionist can order the serum antibody testing and I'm reasonably sure a nutritionist cannot order an endoscopy/biopsy. All this to say I'm skeptical that proper testing was done to confirm you have celiac disease.

Thanks for that clarification. Yes, you should certainly make sure all vitamins and supplements are gluten-free. Costco's Nature Made and Kirkland brands are good choices. They will clearly state on the bottle if they are gluten free. For supplements like magnesium glycinate I get them on Amazon. Nutricost and Doctor's Best are brands I get there that offer many gluten-free supplement products.

Doctors and other health care professionals get kickbacks (money) for promoting those supplements.

Yes I always make sure they’re gluten free! But I’m wondering about the cross contamination in factory it’s made in possibility

Theoretically, cross contamination is possible in a shared facility but most often it's a "we're covering our backsides here" disclaimer. If it's produced on "shared equipment" that's more of a concern than just being produced in the same factory that "also produces tree nuts, wheat, dairy, etc." And it may also depend on how sensitive to minute amounts of gluten you are. I mean, we have people on this forum that get a gluten reaction from walking down the bread isle in the supermarket and smelling the aroma of fresh-baked bread. I'm not kidding.

      Pathology results - coeliac positive?

      By Tazzy11 · Posted

      Thanks so much for replying!  No I haven't been limiting gluten prior to this test, I didn't know the Dr even tested for it until I got my results. These were the only celiac related pathology that was tested for. I am seeing my Dr on Monday so hopefully she can shed some more light!

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      NEED TO READ ALL LABELS (FRONT & BACK)

      By Peggy M · Posted

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
