Thanks. It's the food it was used to make that is really an issue. If you didn't grow it or kill it yourself....... ;)

Please don't tell me you think I should be eating those spiders I squish ... at least I know they're gluten- and dairy-free!

You know, these days my motto is "If I'm not allergic to or intolerant of it, I can and will eat it." So pass the spiders. They gotta be a good source of protein. B)

(Serious face) Most spiders aren't good for humans to eat. The general rule is not to eat spiders. Insects that are not furry or colorful are ususally a good source of protein - cockroaches, ants, grasshoppers, earthworms. And all are gluten-free, dairy and soy free.

Now wait a cotton-pickin minute here. Grasshoppers, gluten-free? I fail to digress. Or I do not so agree. The grasshoppers where I grew up lived in the green, green grassy fields, and ate all kinds of plants, including prolly wild wheat, rye, and barley. They would just nibble away on it like it was a juicy salad, and every once in a while spit out a big juicy patooie to clear their throats. Now ifn ya wuz to et one of them grassyhoppers without giving it a thorough enema and a stomach-pumping, complete with a charcoal wash-through, woodn't cha risk a bout of grasshopper CC? I think some gluten-free ppm testing is in order here! :unsure::ph34r::(:blink::o:D

By the way, they make great fish bait! :)

Thanks for the tip on the cilantro Dixiebell! :)

Grasshoppers, called Inago in Japanese are an essential part of the fall special meals -- Kaiseki ryori.

As a kid in Chicago you could buy chocolate covered ants and grasshoppers at Marshall Fields, now Macys.

Got them for my sister once -- back in the 50s-- I wonder if thats why she doesnt talk to me so muchlaugh.gif

As long as you're not serving grasshoppers, I'm in :D

I can't stand the taste of cilantro, so no problem. I probably wouldn't like bugs either!

      Awaiting diagnosis

      By trents · Posted

      I would ask for a total IGA test (aka, Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and other names as well) to check for IGA deficiency. That test should always be ordered along with the TTG IGA. If someone is IGA deficient, their individual celiac IGA test scores will be artificially low which can result in false negatives. Make sure you are eating generous amounts of gluten leading up to any testing or diagnostic procedure for celiac disease to ensure validity of the results. 10g of gluten daily for a period of at least 2 weeks is what current guidelines are recommending. That's the amount of gluten found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread.

      There was not a total IGA test done, those were the only two ordered. I would say I was consuming a normal amount of gluten, I am not a huge bread or baked goods eater

      Were you consuming generous amounts of gluten in the weeks leading up to the blood draw for the antibody testing? And was there a Total IGA test done to test for IGA deficiency?

      Thank you for the reply. It was the TTG IGA that was within normal limits

      Welcome to the forum, @jlp1999! Which IGA test do you refer to as being normal? TTG-IGA? Total IGA? DGP-IGA? Yes, any positive on an IGA or an IGG test can be due to something other than celiac disease and this is especially true of weak positives. Villous atrophy can also be cause by other things besides celiac disease such as some medications, parasitic infections and even some foods (especially dairy from an intolerance to the dairy protein casein). But the likelihood of that being the case is much less than it being caused by celiac disease.
