Fruit Puree

Okay, so I was wondering if anyone knows if fruit purees (used mostly in drinks like smoothies) has gluten in it? My boyfriend, who is a professional cook, says that a lot of times there are wheat thickeners in the purees but I was curious to know what you guys think. I checked the forbidden foods list on Celiac.com and it didn't mention anything about fruit purees.

Lastly, does anyone know if the Naked Smoothes are gluten free? They have fruit purees in them and they are kind of what got me thinking about it.

The start of the answer is, read the label, that may be sufficient because of company policy or where in the world the ingredients came from, but often further enquiry is needed.

Stick to this forum and even read the answers to questions you didn't think you were interested in (as I'm currently doing), because you get more & more idea of the way it all works.

Hoping this helps,

Read the ingredients. If there is anything questionable then you have to check and make sure it is gluten free.

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Unless your blood antibody levels are 10x the celiac disease positive level they usually do an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By growlinhard1 · Posted

      I haven't had any of this blood work and my GI doctor immediately scheduled the endoscopy with biopsy based on the large area of inflammation found during my colonoscopy and me relating all the other symptoms I'm experiencing. If the blood testing is positive do you still have to have the endoscopy with a positive biopsy to be definitively diagnosed with celiac? Seems like a waste of money and risk to do it backwards 😕

      glutened?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many super sensitive celiacs do have issues with this, especially if they work in a bakery or area where flour may be in the air. Some even seem to have issues being in areas where bread is being baked. Here are some threads here on this:

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I had a doctor for a few years too long who would always begin any response to nearly any question or comment I had, especially if I requested any type of test, with: "Mr. Adams, it looks like you've been doing some Google searches..." He never took me seriously, even when my total cholesterol levels were routinely over 300 and my father died in his 40's of a heart attack. Needless to say, I switched doctors and now have one that is in my corner.
