I always new the red doritos had gluten. They listed barley or something in the ingredients. I don't see that anymore on the ingredients. Does anyone know if they changed the formula? Are they safe now?

Thanks

Can you share with us the current ingredients list? I don't have it, so I can't offer an opinion.

Peter, let me handle this one! I LOVE chips and have the hips, thighs, etc to prove it!

This?

"DORITOS® Nacho Cheese Flavored Tortilla Chips *In 2011, we reformulated DORITOS® Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips to remove wheat from the recipe. While some older packages may show “wheat” on the ingredient statement, please be assured that all Doritos Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips currently being sold in the US DO NOT contain wheat."

Yay!  One less concern.  But, don't recall seeing red Doritos? :huh:  I have seen various flavored Doritos, in the US.  Or maybe I have not looked too closely, lately. B) Yes, one of the flavors did list gluten.  I can't remember which one, but it was always clearly listed on the ingredient listing.

 

Or maybe the OP was refering to the Nacho (redish in color) Doritos....probably so.

I thought Nacho flavored. That's what I posted.

Yes you did.  I had a visual in my mind...like restaurant chips that come in red, blue and natural.   I thought that maybe we, in the US, were being deprived of pretty colored chips from Doritos. :rolleyes:

Nacho cheese are an un-natural orange! And leave your fingers orange, too!

Yes I meant the nacho flavor. I was just used to calling them the red doritos because it was easier to explain to other parents or my kids at parties that my kids couldn't have the red doritos. I hate my kids having all that food die but at least I know now that its ok to eat if they go to a party. I wish the reformulated it to remove the dies also.

Thanks. My kids will be happy.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      What about digestive enzymes that I hear help? I take align 5x probiotics daily.

      Thank you! It’s very easy to make seedy crackers. They are much more nutritious than commercial gluten free bread,

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1. Genetic testing. Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With...

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.
