- MegRCxx replied to MegRCxx's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications2How to work through food paranoia
Thank you @Scott Adams!! I will definitely have a read through these! If anyone is curious to what i had eaten and am worried about it was the tescos finest frozen bourginoun and creamy mash, only allergen stated was milk but it does contain yeast extract which i am aware can be a bit of an odd one. Once again thank you 🙏🏻 -
- Scott Adams replied to MegRCxx's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications2How to work through food paranoia
The short answer is that it would be good for you to learn more about how to read labels, but sticking to looking for "gluten-free" on packaged foods is a great place to start. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.): If you have some time... -

Gluten free parakeet food
Most commercial parakeet seed mixes contain gluten-based fillers like wheat or barley, but it is possible to find (or make) a gluten-free alternative. A good starting point is to look for mixes that focus on naturally gluten-free seeds like millet, flaxseed, hemp seeds, quinoa, and buckwheat—just double-check for cross-contamination. Some specialty pet s...- 1

This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.): If you have some time for a good read, here is chapter 1 of a full book published on Celiac.com that deals with the social aspects of celiac disease: -
I have recently started a gluten free diet (waiting for confirmation via endoscope biopsies) I had started to reduce after the biopsy and then had a McDonald’s which confirmed to me my suspicions so decided to go full gluten whilst on holiday as i wanted to enjoy myself, since being back i have noticed that i have got increasingly more anxious due to feeling sick when i had accidentally eaten some on holiday. And not im reading labels worrying if everything doesnt state is gluten free but the ingredients look like they check out may still have gluten in. Im panicking myself making myself feel worse and seem to be at a bit of a loss, i dont know anyone else with coeliac disease and am finding it all quite overwhelming. any advice is greatly appreciated:)

Some schools, like the University of Arizona and Oregon State, are known for their allergy-friendly dining halls—calling their nutrition services directly can give you specifics. If you’re touring campuses, ask about dedicated prep spaces, ingredient labeling, and student support groups. A guide focused solely on this would be so useful—maybe someone here has found one? -

Most commercial parakeet seed mixes contain gluten-based fillers like wheat or barley, but it is possible to find (or make) a gluten-free alternative. A good starting point is to look for mixes that focus on naturally gluten-free seeds like millet, flaxseed, hemp seeds, quinoa, and buckwheat—just double-check for cross-contamination. Some specialty pet stores or online retailers (like Chewy or Amazon) may carry gluten-free options if you search carefully. If you’re open to DIY, you could blend your own mix using safe seeds and supplements. Just avoid any processed pellets or mixes with unspecified ‘grain products.’ Have you asked your vet or an avian specialist for recommendations? They might know of niche brands. Wishing you and your parakeets the best—hope you find a great solution.
