I Might Be Eating Gluten And Not Knowing It...

I am finding this whole Gluten Free diet a bit on the easy side and maybe that is b/c I am thinking that things are Gluten free and maybe they are not. I am getting good at reading labels and so far do think that I am eating gluten. And I thought that going gluten free would get me away from the junk food....I have a bit of a sweet tooth. But I am still eating potato chips, reading the labels and finding which ones are on the Gluten free lists and buying those ones, my favorite is plain old ripple chips and the ingredients are (potatos, vegetable oil, salt) so to me, they have no gluten in them. But then I realized today...what about cross contamination?? Am I going about this right, if the ingredients are all safe ( I check my list for everything I dont know about) then they are gluten free??

Also I am not supposted to have Dairy at the moment and that is harder for me to watch then the gluten, and I am doing well so far so I dont think that I have been glutened, I dont have any symptoms and I never really did before and I would think now that I am off gluten that if I consummed it I would get sick.

Thanks

If it doesn't say it's gluten-free then call the company. Cross contamination is serious.

      Gluten Free ADHD medications

      Yes,  Lisinopril gave me an inguinal hernia from the persistant cough. Amlodipine doubled urine output and dry eyes so I could not wear contacts, another had me walking bent over like a ninety year old and one knocked out control of my quadracepts so knees would give out.  None lowered my blood pressure. Average BP  132/67 for Oct 21 - 26.  Lowest was 100/59. High 157/62.

      I was undiagnosed for quite a few years. I now have neuropathy in my hands and feet. Be watchful of something like this and definitely see a neurologist if having symptoms like numbness in your extremities.
