I'm learning so much from this website, but as soon as I learn something I think of more questions. I was wondering can we have coke, canned kidney beans, oatmeal? What make up and toothpaste is gluten free?

coke is ok. (and i believe pepsico says all of their carbonated drinks are gluten-free.) oatmeal is all right as long as it's made from gluten free oats (so quaker doesn't count). and canned kidney beans that don't have any extra little goodies (like natural flavors) should be ok. hope that helps.

Some Celiacs react to gluten free oats, others don't. Most oats in the US are contaminated and gluten free oats are hard to find and expensive. I steer clear, but that's my own personal preference. To me, the risk isn't worth damaging my body.

Coke is definitely gluten free. Crest toothpaste is gluten free. Kidney beans should be fine, just make sure the only ingredients are kidney beans, water, and possibly salt.

Sue:

I know that it very difficult in the begining.

As said, Pepsi and Coke are gluten free.

I would suggest that you check "Nini", a forum member who has compiled a wonderful list for, as we call "newbies". You can down load the files that she has so graciously combined to help new celiac.

You can find her name under "members" on the top of the page. And to reach her list, click underneath her name to bring up her "Newbie Survival List". It is a wonderful gift from her and it will be invaluable to you, to start with. (Or any other post that you see her name, just click on her name)

But, as history tells, she will be here soon to help out.

It does get easier, trust me. :)

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
