News: Popcorn Is Not Necessarily ALWAYS Gluten-Free

It's not the same as wheat gluten. In fact, while corn gluten meal is edible and safe for humans to eat-including those with Celiac disease-it's primarily ...

      @Alibu, There may not be textbook intestinal damage in the early stage of Celiac Disease!!! Keep in mind that the endoscope used can only reach about a foot past the stomach, while the small intestines are twenty-two feet long!  Damage can be patchy or out of reach of the scope.  Early celiac disease may not show damage at all. Don't compare your tTg IgA numbers with others.  Every lab uses their own range values.  Tests from different labs are not using the same scale and shouldn't be compared with other people's numbers from a different lab.   You've got the Celiac genes and the positive antibody test and the EMA test.  Next step is a Gluten Free diet trial and look for improvement.  Celiac Disease can be diagnosed using genetic testing and response to a gluten free diet!  I'm seronegative, but DQ 2.5.  My doctors were clueless.  They didn't see any classic textbook damage, so didn't bother to biopsy.  Ack!    This study followed people who showed no or little damage at first....they accrued more damage.

      I was introduced to a new-to-me alcoholic beverage yesterday, a grapefruit radler. The bartender said it was sugar- and gluten-free and I trusted him. After I ordered a second drink, I had the good sense to look it up: it’s half beer! Usually wheat beer. BUT it gave me no symptoms—no bloating, fatigue, stool issues. Anyone else have this experience?

      are these gluten free, I know that they don't devote space and there could be cross contamination but can they be eaten by celiac person?

      knitty kitty brought up something that also occurred to me. Namely, the reason you don't like bread and pasta may be that your body has been instinctively telling you, "this is harming me" and so you avoid it. Cake, on the other hand, has less gluten and lots of other goodies like sugar and butter and chocolate that mask what gluten there is.

      @Shining My Light, While you're trying to decide on your next steps on your journey, I suggest you have a DNA test to look for Celiac genes.  Your genes don't change, so you do not have to be eating gluten for it.  If you have even one Celiac gene, it's more likely to be celiac disease, than NCGS.  TTg antibodies do not occur in NCGS.   There are different amounts of gluten in different breeds of wheat.  Wheat used for cookies and cakes and tortillas do not contain as much gluten as wheat used for bread and pizza crust.  Look at the crumb in cakes and tortillas.  There's only small bubbles. Gluten is in the matrix forming those bubbles.  Compare those to the big bubbly holes in artisan bread and chewy pizza crust.  To get those big holes, more stretchy elastic gluten is used.   You are subconsciously avoiding those types of foods with large amounts of serious gluten in them.  Consider including these types of high gluten foods in your gluten challenge before your antibody retest and endoscopy.  Keep a food mood poo'd journal to record how symptoms change.   Anxiety, headaches and joint pain are symptoms of Celiac that occur outside the digestive tract, these are extraintestinal symptoms of celiac disease. "Could I really possibly follow a gluten free life as close as I follow Jesus?"    Yes, He's been my constant companion and guide on this journey which has brought us to the forum so we can help others on their journeys.   References: Celiac Disease: Extraintestinal Manifestations and Associated Conditions https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6895422/ Psychiatric and Neurological Manifestations of Celiac Disease in Adults https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9984242/#:~:text=celiac disease%2C a multiorgan disorder with,life [21%2C22].
