I need some info on rice noodles from the Chinese market. Are they really gluten free or maybe made on machines that have wheat flour on them from other noodles. It is either that or the chocolate rice chex my friend bought me or the rice chex I bought myself. HELP I'm miserable!

I can't be 100% sure without seeing the ingredients for the rice noodles, but my guess would be the rice noodles. I think from what I've heard, Chex is actually making quite an effort to make sure no cross contamination occurs with their gluten free rice chex mix. I have had several boxes of that lately and have not had any issues (although I'm sure they are not perfect). I noticed the other day when I went shopping that some rice noodles in the ethnic food aisle said "gluten free" on them and there were other ones that looked completely identical that did not. I would wager that those ones are probably made in the same facilities that process wheat or they may have a gluten stabilizer (or maybe some flavoring or spices that have gluten). I'd check the noodles you got to make sure that they say gluten free on them. If not, make sure next time you get the gluten free ones :o) Also, on a side note, did you get the brand name Chex? I have noticed that the store brand (I go to Krogers/Bakers) "Chex" have suspect ingredients in them that the brand name Chex cereal does not have. Hope you feel better soon!! I know how it goes!

I know it's so frustrating but it probably could be CC from either. I know some people have been having problems with Chex and if the labeling on the Chinese rice noodles isn't specific, that may be a culprit.

Sorry you feel rotten!

Thank you for your reply-It is the brand name Chex and I also have Kroger but they haven't jumped on the gluten-free wagon yet. I will have to look for gluten-free rice noodles-I got mine from the Chinese market in Denver and although the ingredients list was in English-rice water sulfites- the rest of the label was Chinese. Darn! It was so fun shopping there. Thanks for the good wishes.

      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.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. 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.):
