Hello:

Can someone please clarify this for me?

Is Del Monte Ketchup gluten-free?

I am extremely new to all of this, and am just learning how to read ingredents and everything.

But one day, I had nothing but dry roasted peanuts, potato chip and a home-made roast with fresh potatoes, onions and carrots.

The only

Hi David,

Yes, the learning curve it very steep!

To help make it easier, here is a listing of companies who will clearly list all forms of gluten. When you buy these products, you know there is nothing hidden in "natural flavors" or "spices". These are the good guys:

ALL Del Monte Tomatoes & Tomato Products are gluten free (BUT Del Monte Spaghetti Sauce Flavored with Meat)

It took me a while to know the difference between unhealed and a glutening. Anything I ate was a problem for a month or so. It's also recommended to give dairy a break until some healing can take place.

This is the greatest site for information around. Hope this was helpful.

The potato chips might have been the culprit. What kind were they? Some brands are notorious for cross contamination.

Welcome!! For the food cop, I probably wouldn't eat anything with natural flavorings without calling the company first. That's cause of my own experience. It isn't always a problem for us but sometimes it does contain gluten products which of course are natural. But that' s just me.

It could have been something else you reacted to. What did you season your roast with? It is helpfull to jot down what you are eating in the beginning so in case you get that "feeling", you know the one I mean, you can look back & try to puzzle it together. It will help you pin down cross contamination too. Sometimes we think we are being so careful but oops! something is sneaky and gets us. I've been at it a year but this week I figured my tea was causing me to feel bad. It doesn't have any gluten on the label but I've been feeling bad since I started drinking it. I switched back to a domestic tea I know I can trust. I feel better already.

My bet for the culprit was the peanuts. Heinz ketsup is also gluten free and the distilled vinager is from corn, just in case your someone who reacts to distilled gluten grains.

I eat dry roasted peanuts no problem but last week had a reaction to Lay's potato chips. Won't ever eat those again.

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      Gluten related ??

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
