Hi - I understand Dinty Moore Beef Stew is gluten-free. I'm thinking about serving this for dinner. Do you other Celiacs like it?

I buy the small Dinty Moore beef stew, and it is tasty. I even like the Ham and Scalloped potatoes.

Make your own! Beef, carrots, onions, potatoes, a touch of canola oil, sage, cumin, salt, pepper, a little sweet rice flour (or corn starch), broth (or boullion and water, and optionally a touch of red wine) and half an hour. (The only trick is to brown the beef in the oil a bit first.) Quite tasty, and you can make a big batch for leftovers. WAY better than "canned" stuff.

angie: the only way to know if it is gluten free or not is to read the label. if you have questions on certain ingredients, feel free to post and ask us. But there are different types, different labels, etc., and products can change ingredients with different batches....so make sure you read the label!!!!

That's one of the things I have the hardest time with. I don't have a list of ingredients that would be listed to replace the "gluten" label. I know that dehamogonized Vegetable Protein is one of them, but other then that there are too many for me to know already. I don't have a book or anything to go by, so I get overwhelmed trying to figure out if there is Gluten in anything I am eating. Right now everything I eat is FILLED with Gluten I'm sure (except the fresh fruits and veggies). I think I have another attack coming on, so I'm going to have to go Gluten Free sooner then I wanted too UG!!

Dinty Moore beef stew is also the only pre-canned Beef Stew that I ever liked. Making your own is always nice, but it doesn't beat being able to heat some up out of the can in 3 minutes and eat.. I actually have a drawer full of Stew and Hormel Chili at work for those days when I am a moron and forget my lunch at home(usually forgoton... sitting on the counter where I set it after taking it out of the fridge in the morning...)

Yeah - I generally try to cook everything from scratch but with 3 kids there are some nights when I need to open a bag or can and dinner is served...hence the reason why I also like El Monterey Chicken or Steak corn taquitos.

Easy.

homemade is best but when you need something quick you can open up a Dinty Moore.

as far as we know it's gluten-free.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      So I have the Benfo, Thiamax, and Neuromag along with my Super B Complex. When I read the labels it says take 3/take 4 times a day but one pill a day is ok correct since its 4 pills at breakfast.

      Celiac support is hard to find

      Hi @tiffanygosci Well done for reaching out, fantastic you have found this forum. It sounds like you are managing the diet well, it can be overwhelming at first, but it will get easier. I wonder if you have seen the short film 'Glutened'? - someone shared it on this forum a few months ago and it reminded me of how isolating it can be,...

      Newly diagnosed mam to coeliac 11 year old

      You are very welcome @Dizzyma. Gastroenterologists are now following this rule in the UK more and more with children, so I am not surprised your daughter is not having an endoscopy. Switching to a gluten free diet should begin to help, but also, even if you have to have testing done privately, it would be very helpful for you to find out if your daughter...

      Celiac support is hard to find

      EDIT: I did find a monthly Zoom meeting for Celiacs through the Celiac Disease Foundation, so I'll be able to talk with some other people on January 15. And I also found a Celiac Living podcast on Spotify made by a celiac. I feel a little bit better now and I am still hoping I will find some more personal connections in my area.

      Hi @tiffanygosci Well done for reaching out,  fantastic you have found this forum. It sounds like you are managing the diet well, it can be overwhelming at first, but it will get easier.     I wonder if you have seen the short film 'Glutened'? - someone shared it on this forum a few months ago and it reminded me of how isolating it can be, particularly at first, when you don't know anyone with celiac disease.  *see link for film below. I realise now how blessed I was that when I was diagnosed two friends were also diagnosed around the same time, as we shared a lot of tips and recipes at the start.   Since then the number of people I know diagnosed with coeliac disease has grown and grown, there seems to be a much greater awareness of it among healthcare professionals and the public, at least this side of the Atlantic (I'm British).  I think in time you may find this, too. That said, those two coeliac buddies were 'straightforward' cases who seemed to recover very quickly when on a gluten-free diet - I struggled for some time.  So I found that I spent much more time discussing things with this online coeliac family. If you have any more questions, we're here for you.  I hope your event on 15th goes well.  Sounds like a good start!  I like you am not keen on Facebook, but perhaps setting up an account short-term might help? * https://vimeo.com/486284734 Cristiana

      You are very welcome @Dizzyma. Gastroenterologists are now following this rule in the UK more and more with children, so I am not surprised your daughter is not having an endoscopy.   Switching to a gluten free diet should begin to help, but also, even if you have to have testing done privately, it would be very helpful for you to find out if your daughter has vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which is highly likely,    In the UK tests are generally offered on the NHS for B12 and ferritin, and sometimes vitamin D.  Shortages in these can really cause any anxiety or depression or ramp it up. If you do end up supplementing, make sure your GP is aware as levels do need to be monitored, for example,  too much ferritin can cause huge health issues. Re: anxiety, definitely speak to a GP or another health care professional about this if it is an issue. Hopefully the Coeliac Society of Ireland will also be able to help. Cristiana

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mamaof7! It means for the one celiac disease antibody test that was ordered, she tested negative. However, other tests should have been ordered, especially for someone so young who would have an immature immune system where there would be a high probability of being IGA deficient.  The one test that was ordered was an IGA-based antibody test. It is not the only IGA antibody test for celiac disease that can be run. The most common one ordered by physicians is the TTG-IGA. Whenever IGA antibody tests are ordered, a "total IGA" test should be included to check for IGA deficiency. In the case of IGA deficiency, all other IGA tests results will be inaccurate. There is another category of celiac disease antibody tests that can be used in the case of IGA deficiency. They are known as IGG tests. I will attach an article that gives an overview of celiac disease antibody tests. All this to say, I would not trust the results of the testing you have had done and I would not rule out your daughter having celiac disease. I would seek further testing at some point but it would require your daughter to have been eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months in order for the testing to be valid. It is also possible she does not have celiac disease (aka, "gluten intolerance") but that she has NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, or just "gluten sensitivity" for short) which is more common. The difference is that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel whereas NCGS does not autoimmune in nature and does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though the two conditions share many of the same symptoms. We have testing to diagnose celiac disease but there are no tests for NCGS. To arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS, celiac disease must first be ruled out. A gluten free diet is the solution to both maladies.
