I can't seem to find an answer. my dad bought me some Amish potato salad. the great value (walmart) brand, it has a little box that says "allergen info contains "(egg)" but nothing else.

Many things are gluten-free but they don't list it because they don't test it. I would eat it if the ingredients look OK. Read all the ingredients not just the "allergen statement". As long as they state the allergen in the ingredients, they don't have to list it twice.

If it's wheat, they have to come out & say it. I'm not sure why rye or barley ( malt) would be in potato salad.

Gosh, the label rules are complicated. If every FALCPA top-eight allergen that is present is named in the ingredients list, there does not need to be a "Contains" statement. If there is a "Contains" statement, it must list every FALCPA allergen present, whether they are mentioned in the ingredients or not. So it is reasonable to conclude that there is no wheat. Rye and oats are never hidden, so the only worry left is that barley is hiding in "flavor." Even though it can be hidden there, I have never found a case where it actually is. Malt is expensive, so manufacturers will want to make it known.

Bon apetit!

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      @Scott Adams Recently got blood work back and TTG antibodies went from 168.8 to 16.7 and deaminated gliadin was 22 (was not measured the first time). Is this a good start for an 11 month time frame? Just having a hard time with why my symptoms seemed to be flaring up again when my blood work has improved.

      Eczema or dermatitis herpetiformis

      By dublin555 · Posted

      I’ve been through something similar recently, and I know how frustrating it can be when nothing seems to work. Based on what you’ve described, it might be worth considering dermatitis herpetiformis, especially with the family history of celiac disease. Testing could give you some answers, and while online kits aren’t as reliable as a GP, they’re a good start if appointments are hard to get. I also found relief through medical cannabis for my eczema, at Releaf, a clinic in the UK that offers eczema medical cannabis treatment. They start with a low dose, adjust weekly, and track progress through online consultations.

      Symptoms & waiting on blood test results

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Jaylan! Almost all of the symptoms and medical conditions you describe have been found to be associated with celiac disease. But they can also be caused by other things as well. There certainly is enough circumstantial evidence in your list of medical problems to warrant being tested for celiac disease. Ask your physician to order a celiac panel consisting of, at the very minimum, these two blood antibody tests: total IGA and tTG-IGA. Please do not attempt to limit your gluten intake before the blood draw is taken or you will invalidate the testing. Incidentally, celiac disease is often misdiagnosed as IBS.

      Symptoms & waiting on blood test results

      By Jaylan · Posted

      Hi there!  I’ve recently been tested for celiac disease, along with other autoimmune diseases. My symptoms started back in 2018 with joint pain in my knees. Since then, it has progressively worsened. I now have joint pain in both knees, elbows, and sometimes my shoulders. The pain is almost unbearable. I feel so stiff in the mornings, and this stiffness can last the whole day. I also experience swelling and warmth around those areas.   Other symptoms include IBS (diagnosed at age 16), restless legs, chest pain, tiredness, miscarriages, bloating, and sharp pain on the right side of my stomach. In the past, I’ve also had problems with a vitamin D deficiency, and my serum folate levels recently came back very low.   My question is: How likely is it that I have celiac disease?
