  1. Normally you need to eat ~1 slice of wheat bread a day for at least 6 weeks before you do any tests for celiac disease, including blood tests or a biopsy.
  2. If this product is made and sold in the USA it could be violating USA labeling laws, but I'd need to check and see whether supplements are included in the food labeling laws...maybe not. For foods you cannot use wheat as an ingredient AND include "gluten-free" on the label, even if the form of wheat used is rendered gluten-free.
  3. Since there is no cure for Lupus, I would be highly skeptical of this "doctor's" claim: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lupus/symptoms-causes/syc-20365789 What kind of doctor are they, and MD? A chiropractor? Are they really a doctor? These are questions you should ask given that they are making an obviously false claim here. Perhaps...
  4. I remember going to Jamba Juice a few years after I went gluten-free and having them tell me that adding a wheat grass shot to mine was fine because wheat grass is gluten-free. Then, when I watched them make it they grabbed some of the wheat grass growing in their little planters and cut if off but I noticed a couple of wheat kernel seeds mixed into the grass...
  5. Where is your evidence that this product contains gluten? Your claim here is that because this company is big they are simply lying about this to make money? Sorry, but this isn't evidence. We've presented the info here directly from this company, which is the best information we have. Spreading conspiracy theories about large companies is just nonsense. ...
  6. Celiac.com 04/30/2020 - Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) seem to suffer milder effects in the disease phase of COVID-19 than other patients, according to two new reports. That may be due to their treatment with immunosuppressant...
  7. Codex Alimentarius wheat starch is used in European gluten-free products because their labeling laws go strictly by 20 ppm, no matter what ingredients there are. They make superior products, and yes, celiacs in Europe do recover while eating them. Here are some articles we've done on this in case you are curious: /celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information...
  8. Yes, people with celiac disease need exercise and after they have recovered should be able to play all sports.
  9. Celiac.com 04/29/2020 - People with celiac disease cannot eat gluten from products made with wheat, barley or rye. The two main culprits proteins in gluten are glutenin and gliadin, with the latter thought to cause most of the inflammation...
  10. As mentioned, Snickers bars do not contain any wheat, as it would have to be disclosed in the ingredients, and per Mars: “To do so, you count on the ingredient statements on food labels to be truthful and accurate.” if you had a reaction it was likely from something else and you should avoid the product.
  11. This is a good question because I’ve been treated for years for a high red blood cell count, but so far haven’t been diagnosed with anything.
  12. Celiac.com 04/28/2020 - People who suffer from small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs) usually have poor outcomes, and face limited treatment options. Programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway blockade...
  13. Ataxia is a common symptom associated with celiac disease, which is nerve damage that can be caused by it. Diabetics also can have this issue, so it would be good for you to discuss your symptoms with your doctor to figure out the cause. I'm had issues like this, and am currently treating it using vitamins & minerals, especially B1 and Magnesium Citrate...
  14. Regarding Snickers original bars, here are the ingredients: 3 Musketeers do not contain malt sugar: Both of these bars are made by Mars, and contain this allergy statement:
  15. Celiac.com 04/27/2020 - Recent studies on celiac disease have reported changes in the gut microbiome. Researchers don't currently know if the change in the microbial makeup is the cause or a result of the disease, especially in cases of...
  16. I agree that the OP may have issues with some items in your very long list of foods to avoid, and if they can figure out what those are they their health will improve, but I doubt they would have issues with even 80-90% of the items you list. During the elimination phase it makes sense to limit your diet for time, but I think it's important to clarify to...
  17. You didn't see its ingredients...it's not beer, doesn't have barley or wheat in the ingredients, and is made with malted rice and labelled gluten-free. On a side note I used to brew gluten-free beer using homemade malted rice and sorghum.
  18. I think you can trust a large company like this when they put "gluten-free" on a label. If it were not gluten-free they would be sued and lose millions. That said, it's really up to you what you want to believe. It think there is a deep distrust I see in posts against big companies, some of which I understand, but not when it comes to things like this. They...
  19. Also, what does the Tony Robbins video have to do with your post? Isn’t he the rich guy who owns an island in the Caribbean that he got from selling the idea that he can make you rich too? Seems like a strange video to throw in there considering your big warning about sites that run ads to pay for their content (which is far from free, by the way).
  20. Although I believe that during the initial post diagnosis gut healing stage everyone should do an elimination diet and eliminate things that also cause negative gut reactions, after the gut heals most people can add these foods back into their diets and not have reactions. The diet you describe is unnecessarily strict, and there is no scientific evidence...
  21. Hi Wendy, welcome to the forum. This thread was originally started back in 2006, which is when most posts were made, so it’s doubtful the original posters will respond. it sounds more like an allergic response to something you ate, rather than a typical celiac response to gluten. Perhaps you have an allergy to wheat or other food as well? You may want t...
