I feel stupid asking this but can I eat grits? I know oatmeal is out of the question right? I can start to feel a differnce already removing gluten and wheat from my diet. Soon I as can find foods I can eat w/o a problem teh hunger issue will go away and I will be a lot happier. LOL I will say I miss my bread proucts.

Also I saw on a site where CVS carries a list of gluten-free OC meds. I called our local on and they said they had no such list to check on line. I found one for rx meds. Still lookinf for a few I take but I know if I look hard enough I will find them. I can't find the one for the OC ones.

Oatmeal is controversial, but for practical purposes, out of the question. Grits should be fine. Just check for cross contamination and make sure they haven't added anything bad too them.

Can you post a link to the CVS list?

Have you tried Open Original Shared Link for bread? It's my favorite.

Apparently you can get oatmeal that is not cross contaminated...those should be okay to eat. Most of the brands out there are not safe though, because they've been processed along side wheat.

your suppose to be avle to call them or go to the counter and ask. Ok I miss read the below statement. Here is the number to call and they will give you the status

CVS Pharmacies

CVS maintains a gluten-free list of their over-the-counter products. You can call Customer Relations at 888-607-4287 for the gluten-free status of any particular product they carry. They will not send you the list (as of 10/26/06) because "the products change too often".

Except for the 10% of celiacs or so who react even to those uncontaminated oats. There is no specific test (other than trying them and hoping you display symptoms) to determine if a particular person with celiac is one of those 10% will develop villi atrophy from oats.

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, the yeast could have been cultured on a wheat substrate. But another batch may use a yeast extract cultured on something else that did not contain gluten. These food companies will switch suppliers according to what is the cheapest source at any given time. I take it you are a pretty sensitive celiac.

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By Tanner L · Posted

      The regular cheddar and sour cream Ruffles have yeast extract, which is probably the source of gluten.  Pinpointing the exact cause of gluten exposure is always tricky, but I've come to learn my initial reaction to gluten compared to the ongoing symptoms that will occur days, weeks, and sometimes months later.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, that's probably best. (Honestly, that is an extraordinarily high number, I've never seen anything like that. I repeated my blood tests (not taken while pregnant BTW); before giving up cake, pizza, and beer, I wanted to know for sure! You don't wanna mess around with anything while pregnant. Congratulations and best of luck!

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By trents · Posted

      Here are the ingredients listed for the regular sour cream and cheddar Ruffles: Potatoes, Vegetable Oil (Canola, Corn, Soybean, and/or Sunflower Oil), Maltodextrin (Made from Corn), Salt, Whey, Cheddar Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Onion Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Buttermilk, Sour Cream (Cultured Cream, Skim Milk), Lactose, Butter (Cream, Salt), Sodium Caseinate, Yeast Extract, Citric Acid, Skim Milk, Blue Cheese (Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes), Lactic Acid, Garlic Powder, Artificial Color (Yellow 6, Yellow 5), Whey Protein Isolate, and Milk Protein Concentrate. CONTAINS MILK INGREDIENTS. Here are the ingredients listed for the baked ones: INGREDIENTS: DRIED POTATOES, CORN STARCH, CORN OIL, SUGAR, MALTODEXTRIN (MADE FROM CORN), SALT, SOY LECITHIN, DEXTROSE, WHEY, WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, ONION POWDER, CHEDDAR CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE, BLUE CHEESE (MILK, CHEESE CULTURES, SALT, ENZYMES), CITRIC ACID, ARTIFICIAL COLOR (YELLOW 6 LAKE, YELLOW 5 LAKE, YELLOW 5, YELLOW 6), SKIM MILK, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, GARLIC POWDER, LACTIC ACID, DISODIUM INOSINATE, AND DISODIUM GUANYLATE. CONTAINS MILK AND SOY INGREDIENTS   They look a lot the same except for the baked product contains soy. What do you suppose is the hidden source of gluten in the regular Ruffles that is not found in the baked ones? Could you be mistaken in attributing your reaction to the Ruffles? Could it have been from gluten in something else you ate around the same time or even a non-gluten tummy event?

      @plumbago on my blood tests I got 4500 and normal should be between 25-30 but they wanted me to continue eating gluten until a endoscopy was done and also biopsies taken. I’ve took it upon myself to cut gluten out today based on the research I’ve done about it during pregnancy
