It was me. For some reason, my antivirous software goes smack raving mad on the Sami's website and I can't navigate it. But I had no problem with your link. The forum members decided (and I concur) that that delicious bread isn't safe, and neither is the restaurant I went to. Thanks for posting.

Hi Marilyn

I too years ago ate Sami's millet & flax crackers but I stopped years ago..I didn't have a problem but way back then, I wasn't about to take chances... I've been gluten-free for almost ten years & have been only glutened twice......I plan on not being glutened again!!!

But I agree it tasted yummy... when I started the doc told me I could have spelt products & the first couple days I bought spelt buns & loved them, then I did my own research & find out its a NO.. Doctors are clueless....

You may certainly post helpful links. As long as you aren't posting your own site which is like posting a business advertisement.

For future reference, The date for the article link above on the test results of gluten content on Sami's Bakery (Florida) products is September 2011.

I really wish Tricia Thompson MS RD would start putting the date on all her newsletter blog posts at glutenfreedietician.com.

While looking at some of the newsletters listed, I noticed she had one "Starch in USDA Regulated Foods." She admits that the USDA is using a voluntary labeling standard currently for food starch, and that the single word "starch" in the ingredients list in the US, in a USDA regulated product, can be either corn starch or wheat starch. She thought FDA mandated it had to be corn starch. But FDA is not the final rule enforcer on this.

Surprise.

While I and anybody else who's had random illness reactions from undeclared contaminated starch, esp. modified food starch, probably feels vindicated, after being repeatedly told the stuff was safe and had to be safe, because of allergen labeling..... still. There is voluntary compliance. I notice many companies are now labeling. For example, I recently picked up some generic ibuprofen which said starch, derived fr corn, gluten free. Very nice.

Would have loved to have seen a date on that, and I appreciate the backtracking.

Remember each so called hypothesis, theory, and test starts with anecdotes.......

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      Hi Scott, You mentioned in your response that you have been taking supplements long term. What brand(s) do you take? I ask because I've had a very difficult time finding truly gluten free supplements that have not made me sick over time from allowable trace amounts of gluten within the FDA's acceptable limits. Thank you, Peg

      Keep in mind that Dapsone can have some serious side effects, so be sure to look into those before you start using it. More about that is here: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/dapsone-oral-route/description/drg-20063327

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      I suggest you look at your calorie intake. If you're not eating enough calories, your body will signal you to wake up and forage for more food. You need to be eating more calories than a healthy person of normal weight in order to gain weight. Also, your diet is extremely low in fat unless you are eating chicken thighs with the skin on, which I would recommend...

      False blood test positive?

      Since your mother has celiac disease, I would still keep an eye on this as there is a genetic component. Study results vary wildly, but the numbers are that anywhere from 10% to almost 50% of the first degree relatives of those with active celiac disease will themselves develop celiac disease.

      False blood test positive?

      Your initial test showed a moderately raised level of IgA tTG2. There are several causes of this apart from coeliac disease including: inflammation of the joints, bowel and liver. Transient rise in levels can be caused by an infection.

You need to be eating more calories than a healthy person of normal weight in order to gain weight. Also, your diet is extremely low in fat unless you are eating chicken thighs with the skin on, which I would recommend. Also be sure to add butter (real butter) to your vegetables. You can measure and record everything you eat, then look up and calculate what your protein/carb/fat intake is. Or just eat more chicken rather than filling up on vegetables and fruit.
