newly diagnosed and looking for help

My 5 year old was just diagnosed this summer with celiacs.  We are trying very hard to remove all gluten in hopes that the hair loss she is experiencing will be reversed.  She is a very picky eater and is not happy about this.  Do celiac parents allow their child to eat the following:

Doritos (nacho cheese)

Trader Joes hash browns

snow cones from Mr. Softee (packaged)

 

These are items that I have researched and have been confused by the information I have seen online.

Thank you for your help.

Nacho cheese Doritos are my one processed food I allow myself as a treat. I check the label each time I get them though, always amazed I can eat them. But I couldn't have any dairy for nearly a year after going gluten-free. Made me sick. But thankfully afterwards it was ok. This is similar to many people on the board.

i do not know anything about the other 2 foods mentioned, sorry.

usually as a precaution and to speed healing, we recommend going about a year with zero processed foods and no eating out. Just eating whole, simple foods. Very healthy too!

Frito-Lay does not test this type of Doritos to see if it is gluten free.  They don't have gluten-containing ingredients, but could be contaminated.

BeanFields, and Beanitos makes a certified gluten free, corn free, version, and the beanfields one is vegan being dairy free. I can give you links where to get them online if you wish. I personally use Protes which are a carb and dairy free version but the flavor is very weak in them and the texture is VERY toasted and a acquired taste. You can find most of these on LuckyVitamin.com.

Doritos in Canada have gluten free on the packaging. There are definitely a staple in our house with 4 kids 13-21.  Unfortunately, my daughter who is the one with Celiac has never liked them, so it is in the house as an extra gluten-free food for her brothers to enjoy.  I am only six weeks into the diet and have crossed the border to the US to find gluten-free products we don't have here in Canada.  Don't know if you live close to the border, but you could definitely have our Doritos.

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      The Happy Tart review

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
