Store Or Off Brand List

I know there are tons of list floating around regarding gluten-free and brand name products. However, I know that we all cannot afford brand name products and use store or off brand products. Would it be possible to start a thread or list with store/off brand products that do and DO NOT contain gluten, i.e. Wal-Mart, Target, grocery store brands, etc....? Or is there already a list out there?

*NOTE - for store/off brand medications, mouthwashes, body care products, etc....*

Hmm, this isn't such a bad idea...

Stop and Shop clearly labels gluten. Like, in the allergen atatement it says "Contains: Nuts Eggs Milk Gluten".

Also I am OK with store brand rice cakes that are made in a sep. facility- as opposed to quaker. Plus they're oviously cheaper than the lundgerg

I was diagnosed recently with Dermatitis Herpetiformis and have been eating gluten free for about a week. I've wondered the same thing about food lists. It can be very frustrating. Because I have a large family I usually shop at Walmart or one of the local stores where you have to bring your own bags and put a quarter in to use the shopping cart. I was happy to discover an article on the internet that talked about Walmart including Gluten free in the labeling of it's store brand products (since 2006). I have found this to be true. :D I bought the Gluten-Free Grocery Shopping Guide offered for sale on this site and that has been helpful as well. Sometimes it's just less hassle to buy the brand you know is safe. Unfortunately, I haven't found a gluten free multi-vitamin. I used to take the Equate (Wal-mart brand) Complete Multi-Vitamin but I don't know if they're gluten-free. The label doesn't say it is but I read something on line that said it was.

Hopefully someone with more experience can shed more light on the subject. ;)

Wegmans uses Allergen keys, so if the product is gluten free there is a little "G" in a circle, usually the circle is orange too.

There lists is also found at Wegmans.com

Walmart's gluten free products will say gluten free below the ingredients. SafeWay also has a gluten free list they will give you if you call them.

I'm not talking about food items. I'm talking about medications, mouthwashes, body care, etc... that are store/off brand names.

We did not know that since you did not specify it in your original post.

I know and it's my fault. I didn't dawn on me until my last post. DOH! :)

I know Wegmans does not include meds etc in their list.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
