I am newly diagnosed Celiac with a biopsy, so I am just now learning everything as to what I can and cannot eat. I met with my dietician the other day and he gave me a lot of handouts to read! A couple things that were on there, wondering if anyone knows the answer are.....is Metamucil okay to take (or store brand)? I have seen controversary on this, some say yes, some say no. Also, does anyone know what packaged suet is? We grind our own wild game and get suet from the store, but it is just trimmed from meat they are wrapping each day. I am looking forward to this site and help along the way.

Hi Rindy,

Welcome to the board. I am not sure of the answer to the question about seut but someone one here probably does. Good Luck

I find that it is easier to know the ingredients that you can't have.

I'm not 100% sure about the suet, but some bird seed does have wheat, but you can find stuff without it. I'm not familiar with brands, though. I'm not sure if you get the kind with seed in it.

I see Metamucil is listed as a safe medication, but I got information from a website celiacsyndrome.com that it was on an unsafe list. I'm still confused.

Welcome to the board. When in doubt do without until you are asymptomatic at least. There is a factor about sensitivity levels and they can vary from person to person. There are other things that might be able to help that are for sure gluten-free. Flax seeds come to mind, they can be ground and added to smoothies or baked in stuff or even just sprinkled on cereal. If you want the Metamucil because of irregularity the diet itself may do away with the need. Get plenty of water and fruits and veggies, usually cooked are better tolerated at first. Things may be up and down for a bit at first, that is normal as there is a need for a lifestyle change for most of us. The gluten free world can be confusing at first but once you are feeling better the changes are so worth it.

I am doubtful about the accuracy of gluten free drug lists. At least one of them (referenced in a post above), Open Original Shared Link, still has Xanax listed as gluten free - which is wrong.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!
