  1. Celiac.com 06/18/2024 - Crispy, tangy, and irresistibly spicy, buffalo wings are a crowd-pleaser at any gathering. For those who need to avoid gluten, enjoying this classic favorite might seem challenging. However, with the right ingredients...
  2. Source please?? Please back up such claims with scientific evidence. So you are trying to say that a little poison is ok--is that really your position here, because it's not a very strong position.
  3. No, 00 Flour is an Italian-style flour used to make pizzas, and is made with wheat.
  4. Product: Organic Aussie Bites Issue: Food - Allergen - Gluten What to do: Do not consume the recalled product if you have celiac disease or other gluten-related disorders. Distribution: Online Alberta British Columbia Manitoba New Brunswick Newfoundland and Labrador Nova Scotia Ontario Quebec Saskatchewan Issue...
  5. Although it does not say "gluten-free" on its label, it appears to be naturally gluten-free: https://www.ocuvite.com/product/ocuvite-adult-50/
  6. I just want to clarify that tryptophan is not a form of niacin (Vitamin B3). However, it is an essential amino acid that can be converted into niacin in the body through a biochemical process. This conversion helps contribute to the body's niacin levels, although it is not a direct source of Vitamin B3 itself.
  7. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.
  8. While you may not agree with all of their positions, for example not all GMOs are likely bad for people (perhaps some could be), I think we can all agree that weed killer in our food is bad, can't we? Studies have shown that it can harm nearly half of gut bacteria, and could be linked to the rise in autoimmune diseases, cancer and other health issues (see...
  9. Celiac.com 06/17/2024 - Celiac disease is a prevalent autoimmune condition in the pediatric population in the United States, characterized by chronic inflammation of the small intestine due to gluten exposure in genetically predisposed...
  10. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful. You don't need to spend a lot on gluten-free specialty foods to be gluten-free, but it's important to stick to the diet if you have celiac disease.
  11. Celiac.com 06/15/2024 - In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the number of online job applications that include questions about disability status. At least 50% of these applications now inquire whether applicants have...
  12. Welcome to the forum. It sounds like you have celiac disease from your post, but I can't tell for sure. If so, are you on a gluten-free diet? Be sure to have your doctor look into your foot issue. Type 1 diabetes is caused by the immune system mistakenly attacking and destroying insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This autoimmune reaction prevents...
  13. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
  14. On our site's calendar we have some virtual meeting options: https://www.celiac.com/events/?view=month
  15. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...
  16. Bonneval Foods, LLC, a Gonzales, La. establishment, is recalling all barbecue pork skin product that is currently available in commerce due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The product contains wheat and soy, known allergens, that are not declared on t...
  17. I understand, but I just want you to understand that if they also did a test for celiac disease while you were not eating gluten, you could still have it even though your test was negative--your result could be a false-negative.
  18. I can't speak for that brand specifically...there are many such products on the market, but I would only consider ones that contained AN-PEP enzymes, 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 of our sponsors here, GliadinX includes AN-PEP...
  19. So to be clear, you were never diagnosed with celiac disease, and your blood test for celiac disease was negative. 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. Also, feel free to share y...
  20. This is probably the crux of GFCO's problems. Ingredients supplied to food vendors can be contaminated at any time, so batch testing every single batch should be required. This may cost more, but could prevent embarrassing issues like this from happening--10% of GFCO certified products failed their certification standards in this random test.
  21. The findings from a study conducted by Moms Across America found gluten exceeding 20ppm in products made by Simple Mills and Made Good Foods. Celiac.com has reached out to both companies about the study, but so far has not received a response. To date, a formal recall for these products has NOT been issued. Key Findings - Gluten in "Gluten-Free" Products...
  22. I contacted Moms Across America and found out that the lab used in this study was Health Research Institute Labs - https://hrilabs.org, and they used the Romer Agrastrip Gluten G12 test, which is highly accurate at detecting the 33-mer peptide of gliadin down to 4ppm. The scientists at HRI carried out the tests in duplicate to ensure accuracy and reproducibility...
  23. I have successfully used the Trip Advisor, Yelp and Booking.com apps to find gluten-friendly hotels, grocery stores and restaurants, so you may want to download them to see if you find some options.
  24. In your initial post here you said: "I’ve been eating wheat and gluten again for three days and been fine. I was diagnosed wrong has this happen to anyone else?!", and the subject of your post is "Not Celiac." Were you diagnosed with celiac disease? It sounds like you were, but it's not very clear.
