I am brand new to this forum and am having trouble getting around in the website to find replies to my post and other information. I know it will take time and I will learn, but if anyone has quick help that would be great.

Also, I am less than a month from being diagnosed Celiac and have done tons of research online and also have met with my dietician. He was great and after reading other stories, after I FINALLY went to a gastroenterologist, he diagnosed me within a few months. Anyway, I went to a health food store, they carried a lot of stuff besides gluten free, but I found a box of crackers that said the company supported the celiac organization and I asked the clerk if they were gluten free. He said well, yes, it has Celiac organization on the front here. Anyway, I bought them, have been munching away and two days later, read the ingredients, duh!!, and saw there was whey in them. Assuming these are not GOOD and NOT GLUTEN FREE! So, that taught me to be very aware to always read the ingredients as the box or covers can be deceiving.

Whey is gluten free, there is no wheat in it.

Whey is from dairy. Do watch out for "made in a facility that also processes wheat". There is at least one brand of cracker with the Celiac Foundation stuff on the front that has that label as well. Depending on your sensitivity, or how you choose to come down on the issue of cross contamination in manufacturing, you may want to avoid those things made in facilities with wheat.

I am assuming he bought Nut Thins. People are divided on those. I personally eat them all the time with no problems. I know others who will not touch them.

Hi & welcome

I agree with the other two posters... Unless your are also dairy free whey is ok...... I think if you remember that if a product states no wheat , that does not mean no gluten . But if a product stated no gluten then it is safe....... So I always tell my newbies to look for products that states no gluten & you can feel safe about it ... Unless of coursr you are one of the very sensitive people the I would say only buy products that are made in a dedeciated faciliculty.I know it sounds like a riddle but once you got it it will stick with you......

There are many excellent recipes in the baking section, be sure to spend some time there!!!!!

IF you want some cream of the crop stuff let me know & I can direct you to finding what you are cravings . I'm a mentor for my area.... specializing in finding your favorite foods gluten-free.

Thanks for the reference website. It is great. I did notice that the pkg said the crackers were processed in a facility where wheat is processed. My dietician said to really watch issues with cc.

I eat things processed in the same facitilty...you need to call and find out what their policy is. Some companies wash their lines down and the first thing done is gluten-free and they run gluten containing things after...so I don't discount everything that says that...you just need to be proactive and call.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
