Detecting Gluten

I read about a kit that can detect gluten in your food, before you eat it. It takes 10 minutes and it is supposed to be very accurate. I was wandering if anyone has heard of these tests. And if so, Is it a good idea to get. I just can't figure out were the gluten keeps coming from.

Also. My husband saw on Animal Planet, that this person has a dog who sniffs out gluten for them. I knew that they do it with peanuts, but I didn't know it could be done with gluten. We want to get a dog in the next few years and I figure it would be really great to get one that can smell gluten for me.

Something to help me stay free of PAIN for at least a week. I am so tired of being sick all the time, and dizzy.

An easy and quick fix, I am sorry to say, there is none! BUT, it beats being medicated! Your best bet is to be a quick learn on label reading.

Please don't waste your time and money on "gimmicks".

If you have food issues. Please feel free to post it here. There isn't one amongst us that has not had problems that we could not figure out. Great minds create great solutions. ;)

      Celiac, Fructose and Lactose

      By ALBANICKAP · Posted

      Hi, I'm very frustrated with my problems related to the above.  I find Gluten to be easier than fructose, at times even lactose b/c I love cheese.  I do buy lactose free dairy products but still have problems.  Have recently been adding more bread to bulk up my stools.  Any suggestions for products that might help? Thx. AP

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, your symptoms are certainly consistent with possible celiac disease. Were you eating lots of gluten daily in the 6-8 weeks before the test? If not it could lead to false negative results. When you post your results please also include the reference ranges, as each lab uses their own. Good luck!

      Keep us posted on your results. I hope you don't have to wait too long. Are you planning to have your son tested? Do you feel your father might get tested? Wishing you all better health.🍀

      Waiting on camera test

      Were you eating lots of gluten in the 6-8 weeks before your blood test? If not, you can end up with false negative results. Feel free to share your blood test results--were your antibody levels elevated at all?  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. If your biopsy ends up negative you still may want to go gluten-free for a few months to see if your symptoms go away. Also, be sure to eat tons of gluten daily in the 2 weeks leading up to your endoscopy, otherwise you could get false negative results.

      Enegy level extremely low

      It's difficult to say exactly why, but it is worth discussing this with your doctor, as it can by a symptom of other things--especially if you're also losing weight.
