I just checked the Frito-Lay site and it says almost all their chips are gluten-free. Whoo!

FYI: The "regular" Doritos flavor (nacho cheese) is not gluten free. It contains wheat and has it clearly listed.

Many of the other Doritos flavors are gluten-free. Thanks for the link.

Yea right, suuuure they are. They actually have many, many, many "gluten-free", by ingredients at least, products. However, the risk of CC issues with these products is really high. If you are new to the diet you may want to wait until you have been without symptoms for a while before you try these. I refuse to touch any of their products personally. For me it is like playing roulette. One bag will be fine and the next may make me sick for a week. Not worth the risk for me.

That's really good to know. They say they even wash the equipment after they've processed the gluten products. I like to eat their natural white cheese puffs.

I've steered clear of Doritos because of the trans fats but every great once in a while I would savor a bag.

We also avoid Frito-Lay because of cross contamination. We eat Trader Joe's chips, Kettle chips, Terra chips, and Walmart Cheetos instead.

Last I knew, regular Nacho Doritios are not gluten-free since there is wheat clearly listed, I haven't checked in a long time, no need. I have used the white cheddar, organic natural doritos with no problems but I don't buy them too often.

Since Terra Chips were mentioned...

Wanted to mention that the Mediterranean flavored Terra Chips have Wheat Starch listed in the ingredients...found out the hard way. :(

REALLY? :o We bought them and read the ingredients and did not see wheat. Was I skimming too fast or was there a recent change in the ingredients? My son, who has celiac, did not care too much for them but I did give them to him a few times! :o

      Thanks to those who have replied.  To Cristina, my symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell. To Trents, We didn’t do any of the construction but did visit the job site quite often.  While getting the old house ready we stirred up a lot of dust and I’m sure mold but haven’t been back there for over a month.

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.
