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.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Is it gluten?

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the...

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa
