Wanted to know... is gluten-free buckwheat okay for a celiac? I was given some hot cereal mix made from gluten-free buckwheat and wanted to know if it was okay? Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks.

buckwheat is safe. It is not technically a grain. It's a berry, I think.

Despite its name, buckwheat has nothing in common with wheat, and is safe for celiacs. Be careful, though, because many buckwheat products also contain other things, such as "buckwheat pancakes" which are mostly wheat with some buckwheat added in.

Yes!!!

I just ran across some new Van's Waffles at Whole Foods that are Buckwheat with blueberries and raspberries and they ROCK!!! Says Gluten-free right on the box!

Buckwheat is from the rhubarb family.

Buckwheat by itself is gluten-free, but be careful, sometimes buckwheat can be mixed with other flours like wheat.

Don't know where you're at, but here in DAllas, TX not only does Whole Foods carry them, but even Kroger here has these waffles. And they do rock!

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
