Deciphering Labels

Hello all!

I'm new to the allergy game (Sept. 2006) and have a question....

Is there a website or information source that lists the names (read: code words) used on the ingredients labels of food and toiletry products?

I'm trying to avoid quite a few things (wheat, eggs, gluten, yeast, wool oil/alcohols, formyldahyde) and they have too many different names and variations for me to remember. I"m trying to find the most inclusive lists that I can find.

Too bad there's not a "Label reading For Dummies" book about it ....

Thanks,

Sally in Seattle

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
