    The pasta should be gluten-free, and is made in a gluten-free facility, but this article may be helpful:

    Those meals, if labelled gluten-free, should be safe for celiacs. There are also canned foods that you might want to include in case of an emergency, and I personally have at least 2-3 weeks of food in my home in case of emergencies (here in California we've had wildfires in my area that left me stranded locked down in my home for weeks, and we of course...

    Of course in a perfect world it would be great if the entire family can go gluten-free, but that is unrealistic in most cases. For your family who eat regular gluten breads, it would be better if they ate prepared breads rather than baking them in your house, but if some in your home really like to bake, it would at least be advisable to create some...

    I've not had it, but it seems to be naturally gluten-free. Is that what you are wanting to find out?

    Welcome, and heartburn is a symptom, along with ~200 other symptoms, but many celiacs have no symptoms, however, this does not mean that their health is not at risk should they keep eating gluten--the health risks are the same to all celiacs, regardless of whether or not they have symptoms. This article has some detailed information on how to be ...

    Wheat has not been genetically modified (GMO) for commercial use. Though research has been conducted on GMO wheat, it has not been approved or widely grown for a few key reasons. First, wheat is a major export crop, and many of the countries importing U.S. wheat do not accept GMO crops, which would affect trade. Additionally, there isn't strong consumer demand...

    Hybridization is NOT the same as GMO, and virtually ALL crop foods have been hybridized for decades, if not centuries. Quit using GMO describing wheat, because it isn't GMO, and provide sources for your claims. Wheat has not been genetically modified (GMO) for commercial use. Though research has been conducted on GMO wheat, it has not been approved or...

    It's great that you're staying informed about your health. Elevated LDH levels can indeed have many causes, and while celiac disease can sometimes be linked to high LDH, it’s just one possible factor. Since your other blood work is normal, it's good to keep monitoring it and consult with your doctor to rule out any other potential causes.

    Commercial wheat is not genetically modified (GMO). In fact, there is no approved GMO wheat grown for human consumption anywhere in the world. The primary cause of celiac disease is an autoimmune response to gluten, a protein found naturally in wheat, barley, and rye. This condition has been documented long before modern agricultural practices. While GMO...

    Although there are projects to create GMO wheat that won't trigger celiac disease, commercial wheat is not genetically modified (GMO).

    Consider going to the doctor as it could be stomach flu, food poisoning, etc., and if you are in that much pain be sure to contact your doctor ASAP. I hope you get better soon!

    It is possible to get gluten-free meals at restaurants, but there is always a risk of contamination. If you eat outside your home, you may want to consider taking AN-PEP enzymes with a meal, as there have been many studies done on AN-PEP which show that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches your intestines. One...

    Hi @TabithaJ, since you've already linked your symptoms with eating gluten, can I ask why you feel the need of a formal diagnosis? You've talked about the various symptoms you've had, which could be explained by undiagnosed celiac disease, but since you had negative blood tests for celiac disease it's possible that you may not have villi damage. I ask about...

    I've had good luck using apps like Booking.com, Tripadvisor and Yelp to find gluten-friendly hotels and restaurants when traveling.

    I agree with @trents, but for genetic tests it does seem like there are some variations between different labs and the celiac gene markers that are included, but for your celiac disease blood test just make sure that a full celiac disease panel is done that includes total IgA.

    For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:

    Yes, there are several gluten-free certifications out there (one is the GFCO), and the usual standard they claim is 10ppm, however, recent findings indicate that even the GFCO's higher standards may not ensure that foods they certify are gluten-free: @Lauraferleo Simple Mills may have issues and is included in this article:
