Spelt Pretzels

I have been on the lookout for a gluten free pretzel that I do not have to buy online. At our local Co-op, they say they DO carry gluten free pretzels, they are "Vita Spelt" and also they have spelt pretzels from Newman's. So, is spelt gluten-free?

No, no, no, no, no!!!:wacko:

Sorry to be so frank here ;) ...spelt is not okay...it's a form of wheat and it's on the forbidden ingredients list on celiac.com

Can't put it more clear then that....Spelt is a definate no no. Some health food store employees tried to tell me it was safe(when I first started the gluten-free diet) thankfully I knew better and had to inform them. I would print out the forbidden foods list from celiac.com and I can provide you the link if you would like one but it is a good guideline to follow on what you can and can't have.

If you are looking for a good gluten-free pretzel I really enjoy the Ener-G ones. They sell them at "Stop & Shop" and also "Wild by Nature". Those are the stores around me which carry them, but I cant seem to find them in a big bag, only the snack size ones. But they taste really great. :)

Yeah Ener-G ones are so delicious...they need to come in bigger bags. Glutano also makes pretzels(in bigger bags) that are pretty good but not as good as Ener-G.

I am glad you guys are here! I will call back the co op and let them know that their spelt pretzels are not good enough for my girl! She tried the Ener-g ones when we were on vacation in San Diego. I found them at "Sprouts." She ate them up so fast, and since then, I have searched everywhere for them. We don't have those 2 stores that you mentioned above, so I may have to order them online!

Thanks for the replies!

      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.
