It could be corn or soy. Or dairy after all. Or maybe tapioca or sorghum, who knows? I am afraid you'll have to play detective and use the ingredients from what you made somehow one at a time to see if you react.

It doesn't sound like it is gluten. So, it must be something else.

Pasta or rice is rice. I guess you aren't intolerant to rice. But those flour mixes have a lot of different ingredients, and it appears to be one of those.

Shortly after I went gluten free, and started to incorporate more items with corn, I became intolerant to corn. As soon as it was removed from my diet, my D stopped! You may want to try it and see what happens--even if you try it for a week or two. I know it stinks, :P but your health is worth it! Good luck.

If gluten is your problem, and you've only been gluten free for 3 weeks, then I would assume you haven't fully healed yet. It may not be another food intolerance.

Healing doesn't happen overnight. Even if you are 100% gluten free, your body still needs time to adjust.

I see a few things I'd suspect if it were me.

First, one mix has honey, which I've heard can have gluten. Then there's the yeast. Also, corn products and corn starch aren't necessarily equally safe. Some corn is organic, others are GMO, which I know I react to. I'm not entirely convinced that it need be a common ingredient, but I agree it's a good place to start. The cane juice I don't know much about, as I don't do sugar.

As for guar gum being a laxative, that's what Wikipedia says, but recently I read the opposite :unsure: From my experience I'd have to disagree with Wikipedia this time, sadly. It's the insoluble type which is used in laxative products isn't it?

Here's what Wikipedia says about dietary fiber:

Sources of dietary fiber are usually divided according to whether they are water-soluble or not. Both types of fiber are present in all plant foods, with varying degrees of each according to a plant

      Does High DGP IGA Typically Mean Celiac?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Skg414228! You say that your DGP-IGA score is high and you give the absolute test score but you do not give the scale or units used by the lab doing the analysis so we cannot comment further on your conclusion. Different labs use different reference ranges for the same tests. There is no industry standard for these celiac antibody tests. So, could you also post back with the scale and the units? If you already have an endoscopy/biopsy scheduled, the important thing is to hold off on going gluten free until that is done. There are some things besides celiac disease that can cause elevated celiac disease antibody levels so it is still possible you may be looking at something else. This is especially true when you are not IGA deficient and the tTG-IGA is within normal range. But you are correct in saying that very high antibody antibody scores strongly weight the probability in favor of celiac disease. Keep us posted. By the way, kudos to your physician for ordering a more complete antibody panel. Many will only order the tTG-IGA.

      Does High DGP IGA Typically Mean Celiac?

      By Skg414228 · Posted

      I went to the gastroenterologist for what I thought was IBS. They thought it sounded like celiac. I got a blood test with normal everything except a deamidated gliadine peptide iga of 688. Total iga was in normal range so not deficient.    My question is with a dgp iga like that is it pretty much only celiac at that point. I haven’t seen anything else that would cause the dgp iga to be that high. Already have the biopsy scheduled so nothing is going to change I’m just curious what else it could be and is the number high enough that I should really be preparing expecting a positive biopsy and it’s just a confirmation at this point?

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By Aussie Celiac · Posted

      Sometimes celiacs can also have other things like lactose intolerance which is fairly common. Also research fodmap foods, it's quite complicated but there are some other foods which can cause digestive issues. For me it's too many onions and garlic.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      Endoscopy

      By Soleihey · Posted

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?
