Csa Product Listing

Hi!

I have the CSA (Celiac Sprue Association) Product Listing. They put one out every fall and have an 800 number to call to find out any updates or if you have questions.

It really takes all of the mystery out of what is and isn't gluten-free because, unlike me trying to call the manufacturer to find out if it's gluten-free, I might just talk to someone who is unknowlegeable, looks at the label to find "gluten", doesn't see it and thinks, 'yeah, it's gluten-free'. But with the CSA, they know exactly what to ask, who to ask, and they warn them that the info they give must be correct (law suits, etc.). The only drawback is that, because of liability and the fact that some man. change they way the make stuff, some companies who do make gluten-free products (like Sunsweet) aren't in the listing. But there are plenty who are, and it's definately comforting to know someone else has aleady done the research for me (I'm sick of calling everyone!)

I didn't see anthing here about it and thought I'd let everyone know. I bring it with me to the supermarket so I know exactly what to buy. It's like my bible!

You can obtain a copy here :

Or call 1-877-272-4272

They are very friendly and helpful there - very down to earth too.

Bye!

Another good product list that is updated anually is the GFCFDIET Shopping Guide. It is for people on a gluten free casein (or dairy) free diet. You can find out more information about it at:

I don't want to get the other one from CSA, since it would also include the products that contain dairy ingredients. Too much sorting through products and ingredients to be worth my while, but would be a great help to me if we can ever have dairy again!!

Thanks for postin ght information Donna.

God bless,

Mariann

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
