Just want to pass this along and ask if anyone else has had a problem.. I ate some of the chips--maybe a handful or two about 2 hours ago. It was the first time I've ever tried them. They say "A gluten free food" on the bag. I just checked their website and there they say that they are made on a shared line and they can't guarantee anything, blah blah. I am starting to get cramps and don't feel right. It's coming. Lost is on tonight and I'm gonna be running to the bathroom :angry:

ok Utz...i've seen their factory. the risk for cross contamination is very little, they have seperate belts for seperate things. if they say it is gluten free on the bag . Utz is a company that is very very reliable, I know many of the people high up in the company because I'm from that town....I'm not saying that you didn't get glutened however, are you sure it couldn't have been something else?

No--I believe it was the chips. I had fruit for breakfast and my usual salad for lunch. I am completely off grains, so the only packaged thing I had all day was the chips. I had never tried them before--maybe I was just unlucky and got the occasional CC that they warned about on their website. Definately a gluten reaction--I still feel fuzzy this AM after an uncomfortable night.

I never had any problems with their products. I have eaten both the Sour Cream and Onion and the BBQ and had no problems. This is one company I trust, for me they are a local company.

The years I've been gluten-free I've heard very, very few complaints about Utz. It's the preferred chip for many with celiac. However, you take a chance of CC any time you eat a processed product.

it could just be that you haven't had greasy food in a while and your stomach wasn't that used to it. some people eat that stuff all day and feel fine, but to others who don't eat it every often it's like a little shock to the system the first few times.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Celiac symptoms

      By Dana0207 · Posted

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
