The ingredients listed in some organic rice cakes I just bought include corn, corn starch, corn oil, sea salt, rosemary, and spices*. Hmm... the asterik makes me a little bit nervous... it says the spices are all organic. Is there still a chance there is gluten? I just started this diet and everything is making me nervous!!

The best way to get an answer on this is to call the company or to enter the name of the rice cakes and the word gluten into a search engine. Also if you tell us the name of the particular rice cake you bought that would help someone here give you better info.

When in doubt...ALWAYS call/email the company. Ingredients are always changing.

A lot of the time the company website will tell you if that particular flavor is gluten-free. It probably is...

      Do you eat in restaurants, or food prepared in restaurants?

      Thank you, I think with the initial blood tests they did actually do the IgA tests first to make sure those are normal! I am wondering if there are any tests that actually test for the presence of the gluten protein? From my understanding, all of these test for gluten antibodies, which in the case of refractory celiac would switch to a gluten-independent mechanism of activation. Because my ttg levels havent changed at all with my increasingly strict diet, I am concerned about distinguishing between the possibilities that 1) I am super sensitive to very very small amounts of gluten and am getting cross contamination from somewhere I haven't identified or 2) have refractory celiac where even if I were to eliminate gluten 100%, my immune system is stuck in this activated state or is reacting to something else. The course of action should be different in these scenarios - in scenario 1, I should really lock in and stop eating processed foods all together (even if labeled gluten-free?) and identify any possible source of contamination no matter how small, but scenario 2 would require some other intervention like corticosteroids or a clinical trial. If I could somehow test the actual presence or amount of gluten in my body, I would think that could distinguish between these possibilities - if gluten is present it is more likely scenario 1, and if gluten is not present it's more likely scenario 2. I would probably need a test I could take regularly like once a day

      That is true, but they are not a bad place to start. I recommend ones One A Day without iron, unless you need iron. You can definitely add other supplements over time if needed, but it's a good starting point that can address a variety of nutrient deficiencies.
