Is there such a thing as a Ciliac "Bible" a book or paper that lists all of the foods (even by brand name) that are safe for Ciliac sufferers, as well as a list of the no no foods for us, being brand new at this, I'm trying to get all the info I can.

It just don't make sence to think you are eating something safe, and find out later that it's not.

Also I see many people on this forum say not to consume dairy products?? Why?? as far I know dairy is gluten-free???

Here is a listing of Companies who will always list gluten as "wheat, rye, malt, and barley":

There is no master list of gluten free products because the ingredients change so frequently. The key to success is to learn to read labels.

Dairy is absorbed on the tips of the villi. If you have flattened, burnt villi or destroyed it can't absorb and will pass through as if gluten. Some healing is recommended before you re-introduce dairy. If you see no improvement on the gluten free diet, try to cut our dairy for a short time and see if you have any improvement.

The list Lisa gave you is great...I took the "unsafe" list with me grocery shopping until I got the hang of it all.

Living Gluten Free for Dummies by Dana Korn is a great book.

Hello! I am new to the forum and just saw your post. I don't know if you have a Trader Joe's near where you live, but they have a list online of all of their gluten free products...it is a life saver!

Very cool!! Thanks for the lists, they will come in very handy :-)

That's interesting about the dairy, where can I find more info about Celiac and dariy products? My Dr. told me that Dairy products are just fine.

I have the Gluten Free Grocery Shopping Guide 2007 ed. They produce one each year. It will give you brand name foods that are safe for us to have. it is pocket size and very easy to shop with. it has helped me a lot and was well worth the purchase price. FYI, if you have a WalMart super center near you, they well clearly denote when the great value brand of products are gluten-free...I've saved tons of money shopping there!

Thank God I am not sensitive to dairy. Be cautious of fat free dairy products as they may have fillers that contain gluten. Otherwise most dairy products should be ok as long as your system is able to tolerate it:)

Good luck to you!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
