Hey y'all, what are the yummy gluten free products I can find at Whole Foods?

I'm going to try this whole "shopping" thing again for the first time since my one post- hospital meltdown.

Words of encouragement appreciated much!

:) Stop at the front desk and ask them for their list.

My faves:

Van's Gluten Free Flax Waffles (I know some have problems with Van's but I never have)

Tinkyada Brown Rice Pasta

365 Rice Sesame Crackers

Health Valley Rice Crunchems and Corn Crunchems

Milk

Cheese (check)

Thai Kitchen Soups (check, not all are gluten free).

Of course...there are SOOO many foods that are naturally gluten free...so I stick to those A LOT.

I have had to cut milk, casein, acidic fruits, and fatty foods as well. Especially with the fatty and sugary foods, I get very ill.

My Doc says it is from the damage done, and will gradually get better. Until then, I have to be good. :ph34r: Or ninja my meals past my intestines and stomach. Oooohh... IV ice cream!

Depending on your local stores, you might be surprised to find what your regular grocery store carries. I only go to WF to supplement with "special treats." I, of course, now can't live without those treats, but still ;). I did it for two years before I moved to a place with a WF. (I swear, we didn't move just for the WF. Really.)

Open Original Shared Link is info on their products that WF makes themselves in a gluten-free facility.

If there was one special product to recommend, it would be their pizza crusts. So yummy, so quick and easy. So nice to have on hand...we ALWAYS have them in our freezer. We actually cut them in half, because sometimes I just need a little bit....this way I don't have to use a whole crust...I can just pull out a "half" from the freezer.

Also like their biscuits, and apple pie.

I was actually amazed today while shopping at my "local" store, I found "bob's red mill" stuff on their shelves, normally I just had avoided that aisle, who needs flour anyways right, well DUH! there it was plain as day, not any I had tried as yet, but will see.

      Has anyone found Ozempic affected their symptoms?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Could be the Ozampic is masking your expected symptoms.  Like an analgesic masks pain.  Qzampic slows digestion to lower the rate glucose enters the intestine to slow its effect on glucose level.  It seems it might also slow down the gluten entry into the intestine, reducing its trigger level for the antibodies.  Ultimately the damage from gluten is the same, just not as fast so the pain is less.  Sourdough bread has less gluten.  Ozampic siows its entry.

      You can sell it better if the whole family does gluten free.  If he does have Celiac Diease, it is genetic so either you, your spouse, or both have a 40% chance of also having Celiac.  There are over 200 non classic symptoms also caused by celiac disease not often considered by doctors. Joint pain, muscle pain, muscle cramps, osteoporosis, and allergies for starters.

      On the cusp of facing a new life of managing a life with Celiac Disease

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Hello @MHavoc, thank you for your question and welcome to the clinic. First, has the contstipation abated with the GFD? If your are pursuing further diagnostics you must continue to eat gluten. Each lab has their own reference range for their test, but they indicate an H for high.  Typically anything above 11 is considered positive. Mild chronic inflammation (gastritis) can interfere with intrinsic factor for B12 leading to low B12 causing low MCHC (anemia). So what is causing your gastritis?  A high tTG IgA level generally indicates potential gastrointestinal problems most commonly associated with celiac disease.  Although the biopsy is the Gold Standard for diagnosis, not finding damage in the biopsy does not rule out Celiac Disease. It means they did not find damage where they looked.  The small intestine is over 20 feet long. Many here have been blood positive and biopsy negative, it just delays the diagnosis until you have enough damage to find and fit their diagnostic profile. The Ttg-iga is not only sensitive (90%) but highly specific (98%) and won’t show positive until the damage is severe.  It is estimated that 40% of first degree relatives of diagnosed Celiacs have undiagnosed Celiac Disease, so your sister is a big risk factor in whether you have it. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results?  This article explains it better and is quite readable. Celiac Disease can cause deficient vitamin D.  Low vitamin D compromises the immune system.  Any other symptoms? liver enzymes?  Recent cold or flue? Celiac Disease and the malabsorption it causes through vitamin and mineral deficiencies can elicit symptoms not usually associated with Celiac Disease. Case in point maybe your gastritis and anemia.

      On the cusp of facing a new life of managing a life with Celiac Disease

      As with most of the people that come here, I have questions and need perspective/info from this wonderful community.  Some background, started having severe constipation that would not abate even with softners (not really fun to talk about), so I was able to finally get in to see my primary and she scheduled some blood work.  One of things she wanted to test for is Celiac Disease due to my sister having celiac disease since a young child. Here are my test results: MCHC = 31.4 so considered slightly low TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA = 78.8 H So with that result, I was scheduled for an endoscope for confirmation of celiac disease, but I am very confused with the results: Diagnosis 1. Duodenum, biopsy: -No pathologic alteration. 2. Stomach, biopsy: -Mild chronic inflammation with reactive epithelial change -H. pylori not identified on immunostained section. -No intestinal metaplasia or dysplasia I am now scheduled to meet with a GI Specialist from the Celiac team, but that won't be until after the New Year.  I would appreciate thoughts about the biopsy report to understand whether it confirms the celiac disease as was indicated by the blood test results. I have been gluten free for two weeks and it is a very difficult adjustment for me as an older 50+ person.

      Anyone else have intermittent left ear ringing and outer right ear pain? Both seem to happen in the evenings.
