Where do many of y'all shop? I go to Whole Foods, Winn DIxie and Wal-Mart, but I can't seem to find the foods many of y'all talk about. Kinnikinnick, Glutino and other gluten-free products are hard to find.

Also looking for cheese it like snacks and such.

Also (sorry, winded I know) the Envirokids cerals, any recomendations?

I go to Whole Foods (Tinkyada, some specialty items that are mostly local), EnviroKids, Ener-G pretzles, energy bars, Food for Life tortillas, Bobs Flours), PCC, Trader Joe's, and Safeway.

I have a store near me which is all gluten-free items, and then I shop at Wegmans, those are my only two big shopping places for the special food.

Many of us shop by mailorder to find the best stuff... I don't have a good store close to me so I order by mail alot.

I shop Walmart and mail order. Wal-mart's GV brand labels gluten free so I buy mostly GV brand products. For my mail order products I use shopbydiet.com and kinnikinnick.com. Both are great!

I recently asked my local health food store Rainbow Blossom if they could order a product that they didn't have in the store. They said no problem and no extra charge if it was available from the supplier(s) that they use. Unfortunately, they couldn't get that particular item. But you might want to ask.

my natural foods store has a very large selection of gluten-free products and has never had a problem ording anything that i have asked for. i travel a few months out of the year for business and often have them ship things to me. i would recomend finding the "mom and pop" store near you, in my opnion they are more accommodating.

good luck ;)

      Okay, it does make sense to continue the gluten challenge as long as you are already in the middle of it. But what will change if you rule it out? I mean, you have concluded that whatever label you want to give the condition, many of your symptoms improved when you went gluten free. Am I correct in that? According to how I understand your posting, the only symptom that hasn't responded to gluten free eating is the bone demineralization. Did I misunderstand? And if you do test positive, what will you do different than you are doing now? You have already been doing for years the main thing you should be doing and that is eating gluten free. Concerning how long you should stay on the gluten challenge, how many weeks are you into it already?

      I mean that I will be re-taking the celiac blood test again while I am currently on the gluten challenge right now, but not sure how many weeks more to keep going, to ensure a false negative does not happen. Thank you.

      Thank you for your help, I am currently in the middle of the gluten challenge. A bit over 6 weeks in. At 4 weeks I got the celiac blood tests and that is when they were negative. So to rule out the false negative, since I’m in the middle of the gluten challenge right now and will never do this again, I wanted to continue consuming gluten to the point to make sure the blood tests are not a false negative - which I did not receive a firm answer for how many weeks total.    My issue is, with these blood tests the doctors say “you are not celiac” and rule it out completely as a potential cause of my issues, when the symptoms scream of it. I want to rule out this 30 year mystery for my own health since I’m in the middle of it right now. Thank you!

      I am a male and had developed osteopenia by age 50 which is when I finally got dx with celiac disease. I am sure I had it for at least 13 years before that because it was then I developed idiopathic elevated liver enzymes. I now have a little scoliosis and pronounced kyphosis (upper spine curvature).  All of your symptoms scream of celiac disease, even if the testing you have had done does not. You may be an atypical celiac, meaning the disease is not manifesting itself in your gut but is attacking other body systems. There is such a thing as sero negative celiac disease. But you still have not given me a satisfactory answer to my question of why do you need a differential dx between celiac disease and NCGS when either one would call for complete abstinence from gluten, which you have already been practicing except for short periods when you were undergoing a gluten challenge. Why do you want to put a toxic substance into your body for weeks when, even if it did produce a positive test result for celiac disease, neither you or your doctors would do anything different? Regardless of what doctors are recommending to you, it is your body it is affecting not theirs and they don't seem to have given you any good justification for starting another gluten challenge. Where you live, are doctors kings or something?

      Sorry to put it clearly, at 15, infertility started (tried to word it nicely) meaning menstruation stopped. Which is in correlation to celiac I mean. Thank you.
