Top Brands of Gluten-Free Canned Chili
Scott Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
While it seems unlikely to contain intentional gluten ingredients--and based on the ingredients you provided, this canned Wendy's chili appears to be gluten-free, but with a very important caveat: it cannot be considered certified or guaranteed gluten-free due to the potential for cross-contamination and the ambiguous nature of "natural flavors." -
Welcome to the club!😉 This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

Guinness, can you drink it?
Scott Adams replied to Butch68's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I could not find the thread, but I recall at least one user who was drinking regular gluten beer daily but getting celiac blood tests done often (I think it was monthly) and doing a biopsy each year and all celiac disease tests were always negative. Everyone is different, but in general regular beer would be considered low gluten (not gluten-free!). I have... -
Gluten food test strips
Scott Adams replied to Borky's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Welcome to the forum! Do you mean this article, and if so, I don't think these are available yet. -
First of all, I want to wish you the very best of luck with your procedure today. It's completely understandable to feel a mix of apprehension and hope. Your proactiveness in researching and advocating for that endoscopy was incredibly smart; securing that formal diagnosis is crucial for both insurance and long-term health management. While it's natural to...

Patiently Waiting to See Results
Scott Adams replied to catsrlife's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It's unfortunate that they won't work with you on this, but in the end sometimes we have to take charge of our own health--which is exactly what happened to me. I did finally get the tests done, but only after years of going down various rabbit holes and suffering. Just quitting gluten may be the best path for you at this point. -

Guinness, can you drink it?
Scott Adams replied to Butch68's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley... -
Celiac.com 11/15/2025 - Brownies have been winning dessert plates since the late nineteenth century, when American bakers began folding cocoa and butter into tidy squares that were easier to serve than cake yet more indulgent than cookies... -
I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common: Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural...

Celiac.com 11/14/2025 - Brownies were born from American home baking in the early twentieth century, when cooks began baking dense chocolate bars instead of lofty cakes. Buckwheat, by contrast, has a much older story. Despite its name... -
CT with contrast.
Scott Adams replied to JoJo0611's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests. Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up. -
New labs are now very elevated
Scott Adams replied to Shellly's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times... -
A Google search for your area should do the trick, just include all the key words. Normally nutritionists don't call in blood tests for nutrient deficiencies or celiac disease, but they may be able to do so in certain states, or using private labs.

I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress...

The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...
