Latin Names For Gluten

Someone mentioned earlier in a discussion about toiletries that he or she had lost a list of Latin names for gluten products. According to my Latin professor:

Rye = Secale

Wheat = Triticum

Oats = Avena

Barley = Hordeum

Also be sure to avoid products that contain these words with slightly different endings, due to the variability of Latin conjugations. :rolleyes: (Such as Aveno = Avena)

Thanks Jenny, it was me who said that. So, the name 'triticale' for the hybrid of wheat and rye makes perfect sense. And of course, it needs to be avoided as well.

      Refractory Celiac disease - what to do

      By cristiana · Posted

      Agreed, and I can't remember exactly and haven't got time to check, but I think my blood didn't normalise for eight years! For years I read this forum thinking why can't I get my numbers down - everyone else manages to.   But my gastroenterologist didn't seem to worry about it, which makes me think he either thought I wasn't complying to the diet, or he'd seen similar cases.

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      That is one of the tests covered in the article I linked you above.

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!

      I had been off of gluten for 3 months due to food testing came back that shows gluten intolerance. I had asked my health care provider that I wanted to be tested for celiac before stopping gluten. Once they actually listed it shows my immunoglobulin A was really elevated and on the AB, IGA part showed <1.0. Would this be a false negative given I had not gluten in months? I’m very frustrated that the the test was not done while eating gluten.
