I was so hungry the other day at work that I went to the vending machine. After looking at it for a while, I decided that the only thing I could have would be the peanuts. I put my money in, pushed the button, and out they came.

As always, I looked at the ingredients list, thinking they are just peanuts, there isn't any gluten in here...boy was I wrong. :o They were processed on along with gluten containing items. :angry:

I feel your pain. It is so DARN FRUSTRATING!!! And now Brachs candies are off my list since they are processed in a place containing wheat. Never mind that the candy itself is gluten-free. The company won't guarantee their products to be gluten-free. I know that they're just covering their company butts, but still.... Better safe than sorry. But I've also lost two pounds so maybe it's not all bad :P

That would be so annoying! I always try and carry extra food with me, so that I don't get too hungry. There have been many times where I am stuck with no food and super hungry.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
