Hi. The best site in the UK is Coeliac UK, but it doesnt have a forum like this site unfortunately, but you should join them as they publish a book which contains all the foods which are gluten-free, and this includes quite a lot of the UK supermarkets, and is very helpful: Open Original Shared Link

With prescriptions, you will be able to get gluten-free bread, flour, pasta etc from your doctor - GP, but you will need to talk to him about this. In teh coeliac UK book it also ahs a full list of all the foods you can get on prescription. As for drugs, you'd be best askign the pharmacist, but they are usually ok unless they have unspecified "starch" or "modified starch" in them. If it says it is maize or potato, then they are ok. If you need any more help with anything, please feel free to email me: katie_orourke_11@hotmail.com

      Leaky Gut

      By Eldene · Posted

      I ordered some herbal remedies (from a Phyto Therapist) to treat my leaky gut/celiac. Will let the Group know if it has worked in 6 weeks. 🙏

      Gluten-Free Bread Causing Reaction?

      By gurgi · Posted

      I did wonder this, but can't find very much about it. I can just avoid gluten free bread that looks like it has powder on the top, but if it does that to my lips I am just worried if it's upsetting my tummy too.

      Could it be something (some additive or other) they added to the rice flour to make it easier to work with or cook?

      Gluten-Free Bread Causing Reaction?

      My lips actually have an allergic reaction.  Apparently it's rice flour ontop of the bread, but I don't have a problem with rice. I can't have gluten

      Gluten-Free Bread Causing Reaction?

      By plumbago · Posted

      @gurgi I would look at the ingredients and go through that list to see if an allergic reaction is possible. Regarding m and s soft rolls: I did a search on the ingredients of the gluten free version. It has added B vitamins (b2, b5, and b6). I also see that niacin (b3) was added. Sometimes when people take b3 or, really, too much of it, they get a flush. Again, go through the ingredients, try to figure out what constitutes that powder on the tops of the breads, and see if it could be causing a reaction.
