All of the varieties of M &M's are gluten-free except the Crispy in the blue package (not even sure they make it anymore though). Enjoy!!

My personal favorites are peanut butter and almond :)

I love M & Ms but thought I checked and they were not OK. Are the Australian M& Ms different to the USA ones ? Chocolate covered in candy?

Good question, but I don't have an answer for you. I do know that M & Ms are safe in Canada.

They sound the same, deffinately Chocolate covered in candy with the letter M on them. Also peanuts covered in candy with the M on them. Both are gluten free in Canada and I'm pretty sure the US as well. Maybe check the bag and see where they are made. If they are imported from here, they are likely just fine.

Unfortunately M & Ms in Australia are NOT gluten free - stupid but they use glucose made from wheat. You'd think they'd make them the same everywhere, but not so. I get friends in Canada to send me m & ms so I get to eat them every few months.

So, I ate M & Ms yesterday, and I had a horrible reaction. I know that the M & Ms are gluten free, but I think they may have been cross-contaminated. Another possibility, though, is that, since I've only been on the Gluten-free diet for a short period of time, my body may still be sensitive to that kind of food. I'm also lactose intolerant, but this reaction was the kind I get when I eat gluten, not lactose. So I think it's probably just due to how little I've healed so far. I really hope that I'll be able to eat M & Ms eventually, though, since they're some of my favourite chocolates :).

      Testing

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.

      Have you considered the possibility that you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease? They share many of the same symptoms, the difference being that NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. In view of your genetic profile, I would give it consideration.

      Help with results

      By mariamccl · Posted

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?
