well isnt that enough to get the hair on the back of your neck up....my first thought was everyone with any of the disease connected to gluten should shot off a email to this company and maybe inlgihten them on how this will affect alot of people world wide.....being just recently diagnosed for starters i didnt even know celiac disease existed now making friends and family aware of my condition i was surprized of the lack of knowledge of it....not only in my immediate family the general public as well....bottom line is there not aware of any diseases or intolerances the public can have to gluten....there only concern is making that all mighty dollar...profit..profit...profit....

I do not have a skin reaction. That is why my Celiac was overlooked at first. The IgE antibodies are what causes a rash. Just because you do not have a skin reaction does not mean you do not have the allergy. Most people get skin testing done, but it is not accurate. It really is a waste of money.

Oh, now there's a death stroke for the human race - toxic atmosphere. So besides the holes in our intestines, they want to put holes in the ozone layer with gluten too...

Can Man even get any more stupid?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well said rice guy! I was just thinking....hemp not wheat. PLEAZZZZZZZZZZEEEEEEEEEEE.

Dear RiceGuy,

LOL! I agree! People are becoming stupid more and more every day. Maybe it is because they eat gluten. It might be brain fog or something. What's next, ugly politicians? We could go blind tomorrow! What if that is the last thing we see, and it is etched in our mind? We could go crazy and bash our brains out with an ice pick! :blink:

Sincerely,

This whole thing is an eye opener for me.....soy, casein, gluten. :o:blink:

Hopefully this won't go anywhere.

They need to have truth in labeling for clothes now too. :P:lol:

Unfortunately, soy fibre clothing already exists...and it looks like corn clothing does too. Not surprised about the desire to do the same with wheat.

who already has trouble with many fibres other than cotton

So does the clothing that has food fibre in them say so?

This is really irritating :angry: .......could be in more than one way. :P

I wouldn't look at it as being food fibre so much as being plant fibre. After all, cotton, linen and hemp are from plants too...and people could also be sensitive/allergic to them, and be sensitive to synthetics too. However, I believe it would be required to list the contents in the clothing.

As far as I can tell, the clothing is typically marketed as being made from these fibres, and isn't that widely available yet. I was surprised when I stumbled upon soy and seaweed fibre clothing at Open Original Shared Link. I'll have to watch out for it when I shop in their brick & mortar store. :unsure:

Well, I guess we should all be careful not to bump into anyone at the mall .. you never know what they might be wearing.

Sad they're making clothing from the top 8 most common allergies (or are they just the top 8 food allergies?).

Yes, they're the top 8 food allergies. Though it doesn't mean that the food allergens won't cause skin reactions too, especially if you're wearing it against your skin for hours at a time. I'd bet that the top airborne allergens are pollens (of which grasses - like wheat - can be one.) :)

This topic made me think about the glue in band-aids....what's in that? In my old age I am very, very allergic to the glue in band-aids....I am not celiac, my husband is. I can only imagine what wearing "food products" will do to skin that's sensitive to it.

Adhesives contain all sorts of ingredients...it can be tough to track down the source of reaction. For myself, I found out I'm allergic to potassium dichloride (AKA chromium, chromate, chrome, chromite, potassium dichromate) which is used in some (many?) adhesives and glues (chromium is also found in a long list of other common products) and is a likely cause of my reactions to some brands of adhesive bandages.

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
