Alright, for about every single packaged food i've been eating i read the ingredients now, only problem is anything that doesn't specifically say "wheat" i usually consider as gluten free which is probably very very wrong. I think monosodium glutamate is a bad ingredient but that's all i really know of...
can someone give an ingredients list of ingredients to stay away from on a gluten free diet? Just gluten free though, not casein free....im not going to start casein free unless i really really have to...
I know the basics, stay away from wheat, barley, oats, rye...but that's about it...

Do not eat wheat, barley, rye, oats, gluten, and be wary of (modified) food startch because it could possibly be wheat unless you know the product is gluten-free or says that it's gluten-free.

Welcome to the board. One of the board members, Nini, has a newbie help site. I'll try to find her info for you. Perhaps in meanwhile one of our other members will post it.
In the meanwhile labels are better than there were before, but they don't have to label oat, barley or rye on it - - only wheat.
ingredients that are "iffy" is modified food starch, textured vegetable protein, food starch. They can be corn or wheat. Then there's malt, malt syrup, barley malt. I am sure others can post more for you to look out for.

Husband has Celiac Disease and
Husband misdiagnosed for 27 yrs -
The misdiagnosis was: IBS or colitis
Mis-diagnosed from 1977 to 2003 by various gastros including one of the largest,
most prestigious medical groups in northern NJ which constantly advertises themselves as
being the "best." This GI told him it was "all in his head."
Serious Depressive state ensued
Finally Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2003
Other food sensitivities: almost all fruits, vegetables, spices, eggs, nuts, yeast, fried foods, roughage, soy.
Needs to gain back at least 25 lbs. of the 40 lbs pounds he lost - lost a great amout of body fat and muscle
Developed neuropathy in 2005
Now has lymphadema 2006It is my opinion that his subsequent disorders could have been avoided had he been diagnosed sooner by any of the dozen or so doctors he saw between 1977 to 2003

Although it looks "bad," MSG, under labeling laws in America, are safe. If they were not, they would have "wheat" listed next to it.
