Hidden Gluten List?

[Bridy]

Hi

I was wondering if there was a list any where online that can tell me what to look for in ingrediant lists for hidden gluten.

I have always been a label reader, but unless it says wheat or whole grains I wouldn't have any idea if the product contained glutens.

My baby is being tested for celiac's disease and if the test comes back negative I am tempted to put her on a gluten free diet anyway.

I have been reading so much on it and I am convinced we would all be healthier on a gluten free diet even if none of us had celiac's.

Has anyone gone on a gluten free diet for person choices not related to medical reasons?

There is something clearly wrong with my daughter (chronic constipation from birth) with many other symptoms of Celiac's Disease.

A list of companies that has a clear gluten policy. If you don't see "wheat, rye, barley, barley malt, oats" on the labels, its not there, or hidden in "flavors, starches, etc." Open Original Shared Link This makes shopping MUCH easier.

FDA foods are required to list wheat - it cannot be hidden.

Rule #1: Never eat anything without reading the label first.

Rule #2: Consistently check labels, even of your favorite products, as product formulations can change.

Rule #3: If you are unsure of an ingredient, or the company's policy on labeling, call the phone number on the back of the product or email the company.

Hope this helps.
