Hi Taz--Yes, you do need to stay away from malt. Malt vinegar is a definate no-no! It's most often made from barley, so we can't use it.

-Although you can use the clear vinegar which is distilled. :)

Yep----absolutely! I think that is harder for me then the rest! I love malt and it's in most rice cereals and nearly every thing I really liked before! But I would rather stay away from malt then stay sick!

Good Luck!

Yikes--malt has gluten, yes. So your diet is not gluten-free right now. Get rid of that malt vinegar asap!

malt is made from barley, hence it has gluten in it. you must eliminate it from your diet in order to be gluten free. glucose and fructose are fine, however, with respect to being gluten free (they are both sugars).

Balsamic vinegar is gluten-free and so is distilled vinegar. Malt vinegar is not.

Mini-lecture -- If you are going to stay gluten-free, you cannot simply try things without checking them and you can't let friends "make" you try stuff. Odds are high that the two items you named are gluten-free, but you can't just eat things with your fingers crossed.

most things (at least that I've ever seen, though I live in the US) that are picked are picked in distilled vinegar, not malt. most balsamic vinegars are gluten-free (though you have to check ingredients on the cheap ones with additives).

as richard said, no guess work. you wouldn't 'just try things' that a friend who played with poisonous chemicals willy-nilly handed you. same thing here.

Seems like this is actually going to be a starting fresh point for you... So try the mantra--when in doubt, leave it out! If you aren't 100% sure its gluten-free, then don't even try it....

I was fooled about it at first and was told it was ok but it's not....so just eliminate it now.

      Son's legs shaking

      Hi, My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine...

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
