These appear to be ok but maybe I am missing somthing or maybe somthing else in them is making us sick. Both my daughter and I have experienced tummy aches and cramps when eating these on a few occasions over the past couple of months. They are a kraft product so I thought it would be obviously stated in the ingrediants list if they contained gluten. But now I am not so sure. Does anyone know if the are or are not gluten-free? If they are not does anyone know of a mainstream tasty brand that are ok to eat.....my daughter eats quite a few hotdogs.

Hi :)

You're right, in that Kraft will disclose any gluten in the ingredient list. That said, a couple of things come to mind.

There could be a spice, or something else that they're using that you are reacting to. A lot of people can eat Oscar Mayer with no ill effects (I am one) but that dosen't mean that everyone can. Have you had a problem with Kraft products or Oscar Mayer before?

Sometimes we can react to seemingly "safe" products. For example, Hormel bacon and hams are gluten-free. For some reason, I get an upset stomach and gas when I eat them. I don't really know why, I just know that this happens whenever I've tried them. So, I stick to Oscar Mayer.

It can take some time and a little (or a lot) of experimenting until we find the best products for our individual needs. :)

Some meats give me gas and cramps just plain. Not gluten related.

As for hotdogs: Hebrew National is THE BEST. They are all beef and don't have a lot of chemicals and many people on this forum who are very sensitive to "whatever" have said they do fine with Hebrew National.

I would try them! They taste great too.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
