I checked the site but it does not say gluten free. However, it doesn’t have gluten in the ingredients. Does anyone know if this product is really gluten free?

Welcome to the forum, Ana Marie!

Many foods that are not labeled so are actually gluten free by the nature of what they are. For instance a banana and milk. I do not think you have anything to worry about with gluten being in tomato paste. If you are still concerned, contact the company and ask them. In the absence of any disclaimer like "processed in a facility that also processes wheat, ect." you can pretty much count on something that doesn't list wheat, barley or rye as an intentional ingredient being okay.

It is naturally gluten-free, and if it had any chance of having wheat in it then they would be required by FDA regulations to include "Allergens: Wheat" on the ingredients.

      For someone with celiac disease who might have extreme villi damage the term "cross-reactivity" gets thrown around a lot.  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      This test was positive according to the original post, so the next normal step would be a biopsy: TTG IGG - 9 U/mL (0-5 range) @Brown42186 Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Connie, spinach is high in oxalates. Many celiacs do not tolerate oxalates well.  If you are still battling dermatitis herpetiformis, you may want to look into a low iodine diet as well as reviewing possible sources of gluten cross contamination.

      Do you eat outside your home, especially in restaurants, as this can be a source of cross-contamination. If you need to take dapsone still your diet may not be 100% gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I was diagnosed 5 years ago. I also have celiac rash which is no longer an issue thanks to maintenance dose of dapsone.  I ate spinach with lemon juice  and had terrible pain after. My mother whom I suspect had undiagnosed celiac disease developed a duodenal ulcer that turned into a sarcoma late in life . My celiac clinic suggests seeing my family doctor.
