Here are the ingredients for G2 Gatorade:

Ingredients: water, sucrose syrup, high fructose corn syrup, Citric acid, Sodium Citrate, salt, natural and artificial flavors, mono potassium phosphate, sucralose,acesulfame potassium.

Personally, based on those ingredients, I would regard this as pure poison. No gluten ingredients are listed, but who knows what is in the natural and artificial flavors? Except for the water, there are no useful ingredients in that beverage and several that may be harmful.

All Gatorades are gluten free. Here is a great site with useful information:

Because of the butter flavorings used, movie popcorn usually

isn't gluten free.

I would arrive a little early and ask to see the popcorn butter flavor. They would be glad to show you the container with ingredients. My local theater serves popcorn with butter that does not contain gluten.

The popcorns I have looked into in the past few years at movie theaters have all been gluten free.

I checked with a major U.S. theatre company a couple of years ago as

to whether or not their popcorn contained gluten, - at that time, it did.

I just sent an email to AMC Theatre's CFO to find out if that's still true,

and will advise once I hear back.

I always bring a bag of popcorn to the movies for my son and we buy sodas. No one has ever said anything to me and if they do I will just explain that in situations where we don't know all of the ingredients we must take our own food. If they argue I plan on having them go get the ingredients for the popcorn and verify if they are gluten free. If they can't or won't, I will tell them my son could get very ill while on their property if he consumes their popcorn. I have it all planned out if they try to argue with me B)

      Still unsure.....

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy).

      @maylynn, No, I took over the counter thiamine supplements, thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide).  My doctors were not very knowledgeable about nutrition and vitamins, and they missed my symptoms being connected to vitamin deficiencies.  I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.  My doctors just prescribed pharmaceuticals to cover the symptoms of poor health due to malabsorption of nutrients. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, physically active, emotionally stressed and work outside in hot weather.  Thiamine works in concert with the other B vitamins, so all should be supplemented together.  Vitamin D needs to be activated by thiamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system.   Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because it is not bioavailable.  The body has difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.   Do keep us posted on your progress!

      @knitty kitty Did they give you medication for the Thiamine? I have never heard of that and have never related to symptoms more. My energy is always SO low. Zero drive to get anything done or work out. I used to love being on the go and being active. I am heading to the doctor next week so I will make sure to bring this up! Thank you so much!

      @trents I have had another scope done since being diagnosed. The only thing they told me at that time was my body seems to be healing very well and to continue what I was doing. At that time, I had only been diagnosed 2 years so it may be a possibility that it was healing then but not now maybe. I think you're right that it's about time one was done! I will be bringing that up to my doctor at my apt. next week. Thank you for the suggestions with food. I have tried diary so far. Seems to not be the issue (luckily!). Will have to try the others!

      Thank you so much for the advice, Scott. I am going back to the doctors next week to get more blood work done. The only thing they recommended me to take so far has been two shots of liquid iron in the morning to keep my iron levels high. What supplements or vitamins have worked for you? I never physically feel my celiac symptoms, unless I got cross contamination which I feel has only happened a handful of times in the last four years. When I eat it feels so different than my celiac. Which makes me wonder if it is another food like you suggested. Has anyone ever had issues with meat? I feel like I can snack and snack until it is a full meal, usually including meat. Could that be an allergy or just my gut not digesting well from the celiac? These are all things I am wanting to bring up to my doctor next week but hearing from other people with the same disease beforehand makes me feel less crazy about all of my stomach issues! Thank you again! I will check out the article.
