- RDLiberty posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease0Rice, corn, and other gluten-free grains.
So, it's been a while since I posted here and I've been doing fine with my diet. Haven't cheated, have gotten used to being gluten-free, and have even created a series of microwaveable, healthy, low cal dishes that take minutes to make because I don't cook and won't be starting to, ever. That said, many of those dishes incorporate rice and corn, not... -

I emailed them about this and this was their reply: I've been eating this every day for breakfast for years and have never had an issue. Jenny -

For clarification, a product can contain wheat and be gluten-free, as many products in Europe use Codex wheat starch with the gluten removed. In this case Ka’chava contain barley grass, which is gluten-free. Again, Celiac.com does not make any claims about this product, only the company can do that, which they have done repeatedly, as you can see on their s... -

If you test positive for celiac antibodies does this mean you positively have celiac disease? I have been gluten free for many years so I don't really want to start eating gluten again to get diagnosed thru endoscopy.

So, it's been a while since I posted here and I've been doing fine with my diet. Haven't cheated, have gotten used to being gluten-free, and have even created a series of microwaveable, healthy, low cal dishes that take minutes to make because I don't cook and won't be starting to, ever. That said, many of those dishes incorporate rice and corn, not to mention many of the gluten-free products I eat such as Schar brand and other certified gluten-free breads, etc, contain rice and corn. I don't seem to have any issues with the two grains, though I have asymptomatic celiac, but I keep hearing these off the wall sources (opinion pieces by people who claim to be doctors, etc), saying that rice and corn contain a form of gluten, it's just different from wheat/barley/rye gluten but it still causes issues for celiacs. This is hearsay, right? I mean, I know some people who are ultra sensitive have issues or even people with other conditions that can cause reactions to rice and corn, but to claim it causes the same issues as wheat just strikes me as... nonsense? I can't find a single, true scientific study that says celiacs can't eat corn or rice, so long as it's not contaminated and they don't have other sensitivities to it. It causes me pause when I see this stuff, but every time I do a deep dive into medical research by reliable sources like the Mayo clinic, etc, they list non-contaminated corn and rice as safe ingredients for celiac diets. Has anyone else heard anything truly scientific about rice/corn in gluten-free diets, or is it simply misconception like so much of the 'medical' advice found dancing across the world wide web? I enjoy eating my prepared, certified gluten-free food and I'm not looking to become a betty crocker who makes everything from scratch, nor do I plan to go on an even more restrictive diet than I already have. Just curious what everyone else's take is. I know some people don't eat processed food, which is fine for them, but that's not me. lol Thanks everyone. Happy New Year. -
