Great value products
Scott Adams replied to Mikayla Smith's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
A quick look at one of their yogurts (I don't know which you bought) indicates that it's naturally gluten-free: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-Light-Vanilla-Nonfat-Yogurt-6-oz-4-count/16778164 Most yogurts are naturally gluten-free. You may need to look closely at everything you eat to be sure it is 100% gluten-free, and be sure not... -
Dermatitis Herpetiformis- Ithcy bumps on head, face, groin
Scott Adams replied to KevinKa's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
So to determine if it really is DH a dermatologist would need to do a biopsy of a blister to confirm it, and if it is DH you would need to go gluten-free to control it. Dapsone can be prescribed but it can have some serious side effects, so controlling it with a GF diet is the better choice. Also, you may want to keep eating gluten until all tests for... -
Are you on a gluten-free diet? For most with dermatitis herpetiformis the issue goes away if they maintain a 100% GF diet. From what I've read about dapsone I understand it can have serious side effects. This author on or site has written about DH in many of her articles: https://www.celiac.com/profile/74848-yvonne-vonnie-mostat-rn/

Toddler recently diagnosed
Scott Adams replied to Penster's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
It can be difficult, but the best way would be to keep a food diary. Eliminate them for a few weeks to months, then slowly add them back one at a time. Note that I had issues with chicken eggs, but not with duck eggs, which can often be found in farmer's markets or Asian markets. Likewise, sheep's milk products may still work, but not cow's milk. ... -
Toddler recently diagnosed
Scott Adams replied to Penster's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
For many celiacs these flare ups occur less due to things like spices than what might be additional, sometimes temporary, food intolerance. For example symptoms might be caused by things like dairy, soy, corn, eggs, and other common allergens. Once the gut heals the offending item(s) can often be added back, but not always. -

Honestly, Gatorade is gluten-free, even though they don't claim it on their label. Coke and many other drinks also do not claim "gluten-free" but are. If you require this to be on your label you may need to make/mix your own version. Many things are naturally gluten-free and don't include this on their labels.

You may want to look at this line, and they were a sponsor here a while back: -
GliadinX is definitely not a joke and a lot of research has been published about AN-PEP and how it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

Mucus
Scott Adams replied to Charisma-1630's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Here is the Newbie link just in case: Also, it is important for you to know, should you decide that you require a formal celiac disease diagnosis, which not everyone does, that you must keep eating gluten daily until all testing has been completed, otherwise you may end up with false negative results. Not to freak you out, but a small percentage... -
People with celiac disease can’t have any type of wheat, even ancient varieties contain gliadin which will trigger an autoimmune reaction. Some people who are gluten intolerant may have different reactions to different varieties, but most probably should also avoid all varieties of wheat. italy still has ~1% with celiac disease, and perhaps ~10...

You would need to eat gluten daily for at least a couple of months before getting tests for celiac disease, especially a biopsy. Some experts believe it could take longer for the gut damage to be detectable. If it runs in your family, and you've had a "borderline" positive test, do you need a biopsy for you to stay on the diet? Would just going gluten...

Gluten free
Scott Adams replied to Laila.abdullah's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Although it doesn't say "gluten-free" on the label, by ingredient it does look to be gluten-free: http://smartlabel.vaseline.us/product/2745516/ingredients?locale=en-us -
Bar Soap

It looks like Lever 2000 gluten-free: https://smartlabel.labelinsight.com/product/4606399/ingredients -
I do think more research needs to be done in this area, especially in the realm of additional, usually temporary, food intolerance issued triggered most likely by leaky gut around the time of a CD diagnosis, which usually disappear 1-2 years after a GFD. The overwhelming anecdotal evidence indicates they are real, as they were in my case—I could not eat c...
