I called about the regular stax's and they told me they were gluten free and pruduced on equipment that DOES NOT process any foods containing gluten and there was zero chance of cross contamination. About a month later I found them in the back of the cupboard and decided to eat them. Being the paranoid freak I am I decided to call back and see If there still gluten free. This time I'm told there gluten free but they are made on equipment that process gluten and that they be cross contaminated. What the hell is this crap ? I am afraid to eat them now . What do you guys think ?

I just checked their website--they still say that Stax are made on dedicated lines, so they are naturally gluten-free. The cans I have at home now say 'naturally gluten free' also. You may have gotten someone on the phone who had some old info. Although, you never know--has anyone heard of any changes with Stax or Lay's?

I noticed that the new Pizza Staxx do not say Gluten Free on them. Could this be a reason for the change?

No that has always been that way, they only put the gluten-free labe on in some markets. Mine bear the lable here (but we only get regular).

So I went to the new list online, and Cheetos, among other things are no longer on the list!!!

What gives!!

Never mind my bad, I was in the no GLuten and Casien list and freaking out. NEVER MIND.

I hope, hope, hope this is not b/c of the new labeling laws. If this is just the beginning of something larger to come, it will be like starting this whole diet over again. I finally have down what mainstream products I can buy. UGH! This law is supposed to help us, not make companies scared to claim anything is gluten free anymore. Yikes, I hope this isn't the case though, I won't panic just yet.

when I called them I was assured the Pizza Stax and all the Stax are still gluten free, it is purely a marketing decision to NOT have naturally gluten free on the Pizza Stax label... nothing to do with the ingredients.

When I checked with them all staxx were gluten-free and made on a dedicated line. I called because the pizza ones had no gluten-free label.

Yes, I've heard they are on gluten free lines. If you have a dairy intolerance though, I'd stay away from them.

      New Celiac Disease patient & new to this group-Questions

      Hi Everyone, I was just diagnosed with Celiac Disease and I am also new to this group.

I was able to find a chewing gum that was gluten-free. Any help or direction would...

      Can you be specific about what supplements you are taking? The form of a supplement can be critical in how well it is absorbed. Many over the counter vitamin and mineral supplements are optimized for shelf-life rather than absorbability. For instance, take magnesium. On the store shelves you will often see Magnesium oxide or Magnesium citrate. Magnesium glycinate...

      Actually, it's an opioid hit. Gluten attaches to opioid receptors we have throughout our bodies including our digestive systems. That opioid hit from gluten attaching to opioid receptors is probably why some people don't have gastrointestinal symptoms. Some people feel worse after going gluten free because they are no longer consuming exogenous opioids...

      Can you be specific about what supplements you are taking? The form of a supplement can be critical in how well it is absorbed. Many over the counter vitamin and mineral supplements are optimized for shelf-life rather than absorbability. For instance, take magnesium. On the store shelves you will often see Magnesium oxide or Magnesium citrate. Magnesium glycinate is a much better choice. Same with zinc. Zinc picolinate is a much better choice than zinc oxide. Same with B12, Thiamin, etc. This can be critical when your absorption efficiency is already compromised by celiac disease. You should research best vitamin and mineral formulations for absorbability.  Routinely, we recommend on this forum the following combination of supplements to counteract nutritional deficiencies from long-term untreated celiac disease: B12 sublingual, B-complex, D3 (5-10k IU daily), magnesium glycinate, zinc picolinate. If you are taking an iron supplement, drink something acidic with it like orange or tomato juice or a vitamin C tablet to increase absorption.  As the villous lining of your small bowel heals from the gluten-free diet, your absorption efficiency will improve. In the meantime, the only way to combat poor absorption efficiency is to flood the small small bowel with more concentration of vitamins and minerals.

      Actually, it's an opioid hit.  Gluten attaches to opioid receptors we have throughout our bodies including our digestive systems.  That opioid hit from gluten attaching to opioid receptors is probably why some people don't have gastrointestinal symptoms.  Some people feel worse after going gluten free because they are no longer consuming exogenous opioids from gluten. We also have opioid receptors in our brains which can account for brain fog.  Remember that antibodies against gluten attack not only the gluten on the receptors, but also our own tissues because structural elements in our cell membranes resemble gluten.  In our digestive systems, our villi, the anemone like projections that absorb nutrients, are damaged.  Same type of thing in the tissue of the brain.  People with gluten ataxia tend to produce tTg 6 IgA antibodies.  Diagnostic blood tests for Celiac test for tTg 2 antibodies from the intestines.  People with Parkinson's and Alzheimer's also produce tTg 6 antibodies although they may not have Celiac Disease.   Gluten is not just an addiction, it's a health hazard to us.
