NJceliac

Udi's recently came out with a new bagel called Mighty Bagel.  I thought it was really good.  Of course the texture not quite the same as the gltuen counterpart but taste was really good.  It contains 8 grams protein and  3 grams of fiber too.

Hello.
Just to clarify, my username is what it is purely based on the questions i pose, dont mean to be misleading . I was directed here by a friend of mine since we've both suspected Celiac disease as a cause of various symptoms. Well I went to the doctor and got an iga antibody blood test for Celiac disease. The result was '<1 U/ml' with a range of 0 - 4. I was okay with my negative result until I talked to said friend and he let me know about possible iga deficiency! I'm not quite sure what all this means if I'm totally honest, other than I could still have celiac! I was just wondering what is the likelihood of being iga deficient? I mean I find it quite unlikely - I've never been told I am or even heard of it prior to this?? & also with my result of less than one, is that any sort of indicator as to whether I am? I'm just pretty overwhelmed with all this info, and would really appreciate some help

I have IgA deficiency. In general population, the prevalence is about 1/500 however in celiacs there is a much higher prevalence. For a lot of labs, they automatically check your serum total IgA levels if the tTG IgA is negative to make sure it isn't a false negative. If Total serum IgA is low or absent, they automatically run a tTG IgG. I happened to know about my IgA deficiency before being tested for celiac. Most people with IgA deficiency don't know they have it and are asymptomatic.

I'm having a MAD craving for crinkle cut and restaruant made french fries...with ketchup! My question is, how do I know if they are ok to eat. My husband has a restaurant and I love his fries. He told me he uses pure vegtable oil, but it's also the same oll that's used to make onion rings and mozerella sticks. I'm assuming that's a no no??

Any tips and advice is greatly appreciated!!

I don't know if you live near a Five Guys but they only fry french fries in their fryer , they may use peanut oil, I am not sure. They are great fries. Also many Red Robin's have separate fryers as well.

Are you talking about Jule's Pizza in southeast PA (Bucks county or Montgomery county)? If so, I have eaten at one in Newtown and one in Jenkintown, and did not get sick either time. They seemed very aware and the pizza is made in a separate oven. Sorry to hear your toddler got sick there.
