Wheat Grass And Barely Grass

First, I would like to say how much I appreciate, and am enjoying this site!! I would like an opinion on wheat grass and barely grass. They both are in a nutrion supplement I have been taking and wondered whether these two ingredients are safe.

In my opinion--not safe. Both wheat and barley grass are on the forbidden list on celiac.com. The problem is that some of the seeds (which contain gluten) might still get into the the supplement--the contamination is too likely--I would not take that supplement.

      This is a very good comment.  I found all sorts of things difficult to stomach for about 2 years after my diagnosis , that I was able to eat again after a while. Eventually there was one thing that I still couldn't eat and that was pure oats (i.e. those certified uncontaminated with gluten, the only oats we coeliacs should be eating).  I think it took until I was fully healed, and my antibodies were normal at last (about 8 years, from memory!) for me to be able to eat pure oats and now I have no issue with them whatsoever.  I remember nutritionists kept saying, "keep trying to reintroduce oats", and I thought "No way, José!", but they were absolutely right.  It is important to note, however, that a small percentage of coeliacs do react to the avenin in the oats, in the same way as coeliacs react to gluten, and that is something that will never change for them.  I thought I was in that group, but it turns out I wasn't in the end.

      Thanks for sharing Scott. Congratulations on having a gluten-free daughter as well makes me proud

      My daughter is 19 and is gluten-free, and for her high school seemed to be the hardest period to deal with. Peer pressure was intense and it sometimes led her to cheat on her diet. She is doing much better with it now.

      Do you have officially diagnosed celiac disease? Or are you not a celiac but gluten sensitive?
    • Gluten Free Jeff
      In general I guess. I wasn't gluten free until I graduated highschool.
