Cross Contamination

I have been doing really well following a gluten free diet. However, recently I have been having issues with what seems to be cross contamination. I am the only gluten free member in my house. What are some suggestions on sharing the kitchen? Also, what are some utensils and equipment you would never share? The only things we share go through the dishwasher but I still wonder if they are safe.

One of the things I learned on this site was that non-stick sufaces that are scratched could be a problem and iron pans could also cc you. I also have had problems with a toaster - that's probably an obvious one. Also replace wooden utensils. I do all our cooking so I don't have many problems.

      Gliadin X 

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Of course the best approach would be to avoid eating out if possible, but for those who do choose to eat out using GliadinX may help deal with small amounts of gluten, as you might encounter when eating "gluten-free" options in restaurants. They are a sponsor here, but on their website they have extensive information on studies that have been done which show that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach.

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Thank you! Yes I think is best to call. I tried another brand with similar ingredients but the different thing is that second brand did emphasize they were gluten-free. I will post here if they say anything in return.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There are no gluten ingredients that I can see, so they appear to be naturally gluten-free: https://www.braswells.com/category/93  You may want to call the company to verify this info.

      Nightmares

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Others here have reported nightmares as a symptom of celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=Nightmares&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy Since your symptoms are so severe and obvious, how important to you is an official diagnosis? Perhaps you should just stay gluten-free? 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.

      Long term recovery

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
