Ok so I know Kraft is a gluten free company but on some of the stuff particularly the salad dressings it says modified food startch and it does not say wheat or corn or anything. Am I to assume it is ok to eat? I know a lot of you guys use Kraft products so I figure someone may have eaten it already. Thanks!

Kraft will label any ambiguous ingredient if it has gluten. So, if the modified food starch was made from wheat, the ingredient would say modified wheat starch. If an item could be ambiguous, and does not specify that it came from a gluten containing grain, it's gluten free.

If you check Kraft's website, they have a whole explanation of how they mark their foods. I thought it was very helpful information! Hope this helps!

Kraft will clealy disclose gluten sources in simple language. If there is gluten, you will see one of the following words: Wheat, Barley, Rye, or Oats. Spelt and Triticale will be described as wheat, of which they are a form.

There are many other manufacturers with this policy. Several lists have been posted here, so I won't clutter the board with another copy, but if you can't find it send me a message and I will send it to you.

Cheers for KRAFT! They are probably one of the best companies. When I called regarding a product, not only did the lady take the time to explain the ingredients and their labeling- allergy policies. SHe even sent me a pamphlet explaining how to read their labels for allergy info and it included a list of gluten-free Kraft products.

      Trying to read my lab results

      By trents · Posted

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Bayb · Posted

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
