Lentils

A couple of times I bought a bag of lentils and found wheat. Secondly a gluten-free pasta I like from Costco really upsets my stomach. It is made of red lentils and nothing else. What are your experiences with lentils.

Sometimes they are harvested on the same machinery as wheat, or they are stored in the same bins as wheat. I've heard others say the same thing you did. I guess I'd skip the lentils unless I could find some that were certified gluten-free.

 

As for pasta, I really like the Ronzoni gluten-free pasta. It is made with brown rice, white rice, corn and quinoa in a dedicated gluten-free facility in Italy. To me it tastes better than the Tinkyada that a lot of the folks here like so much and it's cheaper.

I agree with Barty on the Ronzoni gluten-free pasta! It's GREAT! The "chew" on it is perfect. I can finally make homemade baked mac & cheese without having the pasta end up as mush. YAY!

My local grocery store sells two brands of bagged lentils.  They look similar but one states it was made on the same lines as wheat products and the other says glutenfree.  We can't be too careful!

 

Even gluten-free lentils can be hard on your stomach if you aren't used to them.  I like Tolerant's bean and lentil noodles.  They are expensive but good.

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
