And some other lists show that one is allowed to have intake of "Malt".. :huh: I once was reading a lable for one of the gluten-free items and noticed that it contains Gluten!! How come?? So,, if anyone could advise me what to do and whether it is safe or not?

Okay, I'm guessing you mean it contained Malt?

Everything I've read has said Malt isn't gluten free. Think it's made from wheat? I know if something has "Malt Flavoring" I put it back.

Having said that, I don't claim to know everything or be an expert, so maybe it's possible there is a gluten-free malt out there.

So,, if anyone could advise me what to do and whether it is safe or not?

The best advice I think anyone can give you here is, call the company. Find out what they mean by malt, and what is in it. Pain in the butt to do, yes, but the best way to stay gluten-free. And if the company can't give you a straight answer or aren't sure, then assume it isn't gluten-free.

Good luck. =)

If you see malt or malt flavoring you have to assume it's made from barley because it almost always is. However, you can call the company and check. You can amlt any grain out there, and I've run into a product or two where the malt was from corn.

Thnx alot for your replies.. So I assume from your replies that is it safe to eat malt if it was written on the item I want to buy that it is gluten-free... Right? B)

If the item says it is gluten-free, that means the malt comes from something other than barley.

      Symptoms after ingesting gluten

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum @Juliana82! Bleeding where? Thanks for the articles on seronegative celiac disease. As I recall, one of our moderators is seronegative and has been faithful to draw our attention to this phenomenon at different times. The heterozygous factor seronegative celiac disease is an important factoid I believe.

      Symptoms after ingesting gluten

      By Juliana82 · Posted

      Does anyone have bleeding after eating gluten? You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATION

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      vitamin D levels in obsessive-compulsive disorder "The number of participants with vitamin D insufficient ... and vitamin D deficiency ... in the OCD group was statistically significantly higher than the control group... and also the number of participants whose vitamin D levels were in the normal range ... in the OCD group was statistically significantly lower than the control group." Low vitamin D iscommon in Celiac Disease patients. Also no lithium in drinking water (bottled water) or in areas with low ground water Lithium contributes to anxiety. Association between naturally occurring lithium in drinking water and suicide rates The EPA calculated a provisional oral reference dose (p-RfD) of 2 μg/kg-day using the Provisional Peer-Reviewed Toxicity Value   https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2023-11/ucmr5-technical-fact-sheet-lithium-in-drinking-water.pdf Should we all take a bit of lithium?! Raising my vitamin D to 80 ng/ml and taking 5 mg a day of Lithium Orotate for a few month helped me.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      After 3 months without gluten he will have healed and his blood tests will be negative. That does not mean "not celiac, ok to eat wheat, rye and barley again.  It does mean the diet is working.  Many of those recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease are often deficient in vitamin D and other vitamins and minerals.  It's a side effect called Malabsorption.  Get his blood checked for 25(OH)D level to be sure.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yeah, but that's probably not where you want to eat, anyway.
