What is the best shopping guide that can be purchased? Preferably one that lists food items, safe brands, etc. I am trying to go back to square one and I feel I need to purchase a shopping guide?

Thanks.

Some supermarkets have gluten free lists, so you might want to check your supermarkets website before you go shopping. :)

I know there are some handy guides that are available for purchase. I just want some suggestions of which ones are the best.

When I was new that's what I wanted, too. But everything I looked at was so all-inclusive that I felt it was kind of a waste. There was too much info about things I had no interest in and would never buy.

I think most of us get to the point of making a list of what we normally bought and then checking each item out for suitability. For instance, look at your normal condiments. Check out each one to see if it is gluten free. If it is, great! If not, check into other brands. Continue on with other categories.

Soon - very soon - you will have your own customized guide at the perfect price. FREE! :D

Remember it's basically only the processed items you need to worry about. Fresh and frozen meats and produce (without sauces and seasonings) are OK naturally. :)

But back to your original question, I didn't find any of the so-called handy guides very useful at all.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
