my hubby was talking to a collegue the other day who mentioned that she was C, my hubby got chatting to her and she mentioned that she had a prob with some canned fish, she worked out that some canned fish have G in them, why? cos fish farms feed the fish there on gluten and it causes probs further down the food chain. she gave him the advice that to allways buy canned fish that is marked WILD.\has anyone heard of this one? it shocked the hell out of me as i eat a lot of canned fish as its so quick.

Doesn't make sense to me. Unless it's added to the canned fish, I don't think it would matter what the fish ate. I usually eat Alaskan salmon, which is wild, when I eat canned fish, but ... still makes no sense to me.

I have seen canned chicken with "wheat starch" listed as an ingredient in addition to the chicken (the brand sold in bulk at Costco in fact). Maybe there are some canned tunas/salmons with the same?

Also, with farmed fish you just never know what you are going to get, so i agree it is best to stick with Wild. But always read labels and check with the company when in doubt.

I haven't found a canned fish that I can eat yet. Tried the health food stuff, just water, wild, etc. still got sick.

I guess I've been lucky ... I eat Kroger brand red salmon. It's wild. Just salmon, water, and maybe salt (I don't have a can in the pantry right now), and it never gives me trouble. I don't like the farmed fish because of the mercury and other toxins.

I do read every label, even on things I would think are gluten-free, so I would have caught additives.

If you're talking tuna, I've seen some cans with "broth", which could easily contain gluten.

As to farmed fish, I would not touch this with a ten foot pole. It is nasty in so many ways, antibiotics, hormones, AND higher heavy metal/pesticide toxicity. I only eat fresh.

sorry, I'm with the others... who would want to eat fish out of a can. But, of course, I'm on the coast, but you can get fresh tuna, salmon everwhere....cannned stuff is aweful.

Oh rub it in why don't you!!! I'm in a land locked state, in the middle in a small town in fact. I have to drive 2 hours at least to get something flown in that day. But I've never had a problem with Chicken of the Sea tuna in water.

Sorry, didn't mean to make you feel bad. :unsure: Come East, and we'll go fish'n.

Soft Shell Crabs are in season. Let me know and I will have some shipped to you on ice, FRESH.

Dip them in a scrambled egg and dredge them in cornbread and fry in a hot iron skillet..........oooh too good.

E-me with your address, or I will get it from Karen and send you some......but you got to be up to the Southern Cook. Can you make the grade? :):) It will ruin you forever.

Flondly, Lisa

I only eat wild fish and never touch anything thats been farmed. It has nothing to do with gluten....farmed fish is just bad ...period. I'd rather eat fresh fish than anything from a can. Fresh wild fish is the way to go IMO. :)

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankle...

      A Future Beyond the Gluten-Free Diet? Scientists Test a New Cell Therapy for Celiac Disease (+Video)

      This is very exciting news. The research lends itself to preventing the immune system in other autoimmune disorders from getting out of sorts. As someone with a compendium of autoimmune disorders I feel a bit of hope.

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      Airborne Gluten?

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      I also noticed I get debilitating migraines when I smell gluten, wheat and its not taken seriously when it affects one in every way.Im still begging to properly be heard.I also noticed tolerance level is down the drain with age and life changes. I have been told by incompetent medical that im not celiac or that sensitive. Diagnosed in 1994 by gi biopsy gluten-free ever since along with other lovely food allergies. Prayers
