My First Donut In More Than Five Years!

I went to a new grocery store in my area because I heard they carried baked goods by Celiac Specialties. I bought their donuts doubting they'd actually be any good. It was so weird biting into one and tasting that long gone, but not forgotten donut taste. They are really good, but almost too rich for me now after going without them for so long. I used to really miss pizza too when I went gluten-free, but now if I ate a piece I think all I'd taste is the gooey (gluey) dough and the grease. It's great that the food industry is getting so good at making us treats, on the other hand I'm afraid my waistline may start expanding in leaps and bounds if I discover too many yummy gluten-free carbs!

The brand name would be awesome. I love donuts and have tried making my own and even tried kinniniki but they just dont do the trick.

On Halloween last year we strung Kinninick cinnamon donuts (gluten-free of course) from our celing fan and had a "biting for donuts" (versus boobing for apples) challenge. It was a) FUNNY! B) YUMMY!

The Kinninick donuts are GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had some Kinnickkinick donuts recently. The first in a long time. I have never had a donut feel the way it felt in my body as long as I can remember. I still can't get over it. I don't know if it's just the gluten or something else as well. For some reason the difference is even more noticable than with things like bread. I know I've had problems with gluten for 8 years but who knows maybe it's been longer. It makes me wonder. They were a little too sweet but there was some other ingredient in the frosting that was creamy and good! I'm not complaining!

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis Cleared up With EpiPen, etc.

      I had to rush to the hospital last week due to anaphylactic shock from taking a dose of an antibiotic. Received EpiPen, steroids, antihistamines, zofran (all injected/IV). When I woke up the next day, ALL of the rashes I've had that started since going gluten free were cleared up. EVEN THE dermatitis herpetiformis was gone. Has anyone else experienced this...

      Exactly! Negative genetics can rule out celiac disease with close to 100% certainty. It takes tTg antibody testing and biopsy confirm the diagnosis in a genetically susceptible individual.

      Test interpretations

      What Dr. Gunn states is essentially true. It is a rule out measure. But be aware that to possess either of the two primary genes that have been identified with celiac disease (or both) doesn't necessarily mean that you have or will develop celiac disease. Almost 40% of the general population carries one or both but only about 1% of the general population...

      Have you had celiac genetic risk testing? A celiac genetic test is accurate with or without gluten in your diet. If you don't carry the celiac risk genes you can effectively rule out celiac disease for life.

      How Social Media Algorithms Are Fueling Gluten Anxiety: TikTok, Reddit, and Instagram Trends

      Good, balanced analysis. I liked the comparison of the different platforms in this context. Fwiw, the same essay largely would work if you substitute any of many contemporary topics. As a moderator of this site, have you stepped back and considered how this site fits into this essay? Personally, I don't think I have enough visibility into the comments...

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis Cleared up With EpiPen, etc.

      By MogwaiStripe · Posted

When I woke up the next day, ALL of the rashes I've had that started since going gluten free were cleared up. EVEN THE dermatitis herpetiformis was gone. Has anyone else experienced this or happen to know why that would happen? The meds they gave me were all meds that I've taken to try to resolve the rashes, but they never worked in pill form. I'm wondering if it the addition of the epi that helped, it if injected steroids and antihistamines were what did the job.

But be aware that to possess either of the two primary genes that have been identified with celiac disease (or both) doesn't necessarily mean that you have or will develop celiac disease. Almost 40% of the general population carries one or both but only about 1% of the general population will develop active celiac disease. It remains latent until triggered by some stress event which may or may not occur. So, there is a genetic component to celiac disease but there is also an epigenetic component.

      Based on those results alone, it’s not possible to say you have celiac disease. The test that is usually most specific for celiac, tTG-IgA, is negative in your results, and the endomysial antibody (EMA) is also negative, which generally argues against active celiac disease. However, your deamidated gliadin IgA is elevated, and your total IgA level is also high, which can sometimes affect how the other antibody tests behave. Another important factor is that you were reducing gluten before the test, which can lower antibody levels and make the results less reliable. Because of that, many doctors recommend a gluten challenge (eating gluten regularly for several weeks) before repeating blood tests or considering an endoscopy if symptoms and labs raise concern. It would be best to review these results with a gastroenterologist, who can interpret them in context and decide whether further testing is needed.
