my hubby was talking to a collegue the other day who mentioned that she was C, my hubby got chatting to her and she mentioned that she had a prob with some canned fish, she worked out that some canned fish have G in them, why? cos fish farms feed the fish there on gluten and it causes probs further down the food chain. she gave him the advice that to allways buy canned fish that is marked WILD.\has anyone heard of this one? it shocked the hell out of me as i eat a lot of canned fish as its so quick.

Doesn't make sense to me. Unless it's added to the canned fish, I don't think it would matter what the fish ate. I usually eat Alaskan salmon, which is wild, when I eat canned fish, but ... still makes no sense to me.

I have seen canned chicken with "wheat starch" listed as an ingredient in addition to the chicken (the brand sold in bulk at Costco in fact). Maybe there are some canned tunas/salmons with the same?

Also, with farmed fish you just never know what you are going to get, so i agree it is best to stick with Wild. But always read labels and check with the company when in doubt.

I haven't found a canned fish that I can eat yet. Tried the health food stuff, just water, wild, etc. still got sick.

I guess I've been lucky ... I eat Kroger brand red salmon. It's wild. Just salmon, water, and maybe salt (I don't have a can in the pantry right now), and it never gives me trouble. I don't like the farmed fish because of the mercury and other toxins.

I do read every label, even on things I would think are gluten-free, so I would have caught additives.

If you're talking tuna, I've seen some cans with "broth", which could easily contain gluten.

As to farmed fish, I would not touch this with a ten foot pole. It is nasty in so many ways, antibiotics, hormones, AND higher heavy metal/pesticide toxicity. I only eat fresh.

sorry, I'm with the others... who would want to eat fish out of a can. But, of course, I'm on the coast, but you can get fresh tuna, salmon everwhere....cannned stuff is aweful.

Oh rub it in why don't you!!! I'm in a land locked state, in the middle in a small town in fact. I have to drive 2 hours at least to get something flown in that day. But I've never had a problem with Chicken of the Sea tuna in water.

Sorry, didn't mean to make you feel bad. :unsure: Come East, and we'll go fish'n.

Soft Shell Crabs are in season. Let me know and I will have some shipped to you on ice, FRESH.

Dip them in a scrambled egg and dredge them in cornbread and fry in a hot iron skillet..........oooh too good.

E-me with your address, or I will get it from Karen and send you some......but you got to be up to the Southern Cook. Can you make the grade? :):) It will ruin you forever.

Flondly, Lisa

I only eat wild fish and never touch anything thats been farmed. It has nothing to do with gluten....farmed fish is just bad ...period. I'd rather eat fresh fish than anything from a can. Fresh wild fish is the way to go IMO. :)

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.

      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening.

      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her.

      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H".

      Welcome to the forum, allis! By "skin response to gluten products" are you saying you develop a rash when you use lotions, creams, shampoos, etc. that contain gluten? One of the classical symptoms of celiac disease is a skin rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis or "dermatitis herpetiformis" for short. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. It has a distinct appearance. It has little blisters or pustules in the bumps. Does this sound like what you experience? Is so, it might be possible to get a punch biopsy done when you are having an outbreak. This would be an alternative to eating gluten. If your skin biopsy was positive for dermatitis herpetiformis you could be diagnosed with celiac disease on that basis alone. Apart from that, I know of no other way to get a diagnosis apart from returning to eating gluten for a period of weeks.
