How long have you been gluten free?  

This product appears to be gluten free (I am in the US).  But if you are new to the diet and are celiac, the fiber might be too harsh for your system until you have healed.  Consider sticking to non-processed foods like eating a simple bowl of rice, a stew or soup.  Yes, you can eat soup for breakfast!  Do not eat out for a while.  

Expand your diet once you feel better.

I am gluten free because it helps me to lose weight I have been gluten free for a year I've never had any bother before I never eat out anyway

I am going to guess this has nothing to do with gluten

I had gastroenteritis in 2016 and lost all confidence in gluten every time I ate gluten I felt sick it happened about three days before Christmas and I didn't feel like eating until January

      My celiac symptoms are extra-digestive; if I had to classify them, I’d say they are predominantly neurological: extreme fatigue that prevents me from making physical or intellectual effort, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, clumsy movements, pain… When I’m at my worst, I notice that some people behave hostilely toward me: they speak to me rudely, become authoritarian, belittle me, look at me and treat me with contempt… This made me question many aspects of my life and how others perceived me: What was it about me that seemed to bother others so much? What could I do to fix it? Paying closer attention, when I was sicker, others saw me as cold, distant, as not talking too much, less engaged, apathetic, sad… All of this, far from being intentional, was just how my symptoms—and my attempt to cope with them—manifested to others. But objectively, was my behavior harmful or detrimental to anyone? Did I deserve the treatment some people were giving me? No, my behavior doesn’t harm anyone, and if someone feels uncomfortable, the solution would be to walk away, not to treat me like s$#&. And here are the unanswered questions: What leads a person to interpret illness symptoms as something offensive? What kind of issues do these people have? How are people with degenerative or other types of illnesses who are in a situation of dependency treated? Am I the only one these things happen to?

      I was wondering if your shakes and off balance went away after stopping gluten?

      Thanks, yall! The tough part now is figuring out if I’m actually feeling better or is it some form of placebo effect. I do actually feel better but I’m not positive if I may just be gaslighting myself lol

      @drjay in addition to what @trents wrote, I wanted to comment on your statement, "Positive for DQ2 and homozygous for DQB1*02 but negative for DQ8" You don't need DQ2 >and< DQ8 in order to be susceptible to getting celiac. Either one is good enough. DQB1*02 is a specific genetic allele that encodes part of the DQ2 protein. "Homozygous" means two copies of the same allele (the opposite is "heterozygous", where the two copies are different alleles). If you are homozygous for DQB1*02, you couldn't have DQ8. In other words, your genetic test tells you that you definitely have the potential to get celiac.

      @drjay, your mixed test results experience is exceedingly common for someone having been consuming reduced amounts of gluten. A Marsh scale score of 3 indicates "significant villous atrophy" according to a quick google search I did and the biopsy is the gold standard diagnostic test anyway, not the blood antibody testing. It doesn't look like a "total IGA" blood test was ordered and without that we cannot tell if you are IGA deficient. If IGA deficient, other celiac IGA antibody scores, such as the tTG-IGA, cannot be trusted. They will likely be artificially low. And given the fact that there is significant improvement in your symptoms once you went on a strict gluten free diet, there is no doubt in my mind that your doctor's diagnosis of celiac disease is the correct one. By the way, welcome to celiac.com.!
