Okay ... I am so so angry with myself!............

After being knocked off my feet for 4 days after accidental ingestion..(soy)

I have not been able to face food , till today, I was ever so careful, just eating salmon, and salad,

but later tonight I got a bit hungry , and thought.. ahhhh I have some rice crackers in the cupboard, that will fill the hunger. I had eaten rice crackers before, but this was a different brand...

I checked the front of the pack that was labeled all over it , "gluten free"

Thinking that "original plain rice crackers",wouldn't have any hiden ingredients I didn't read the pack...

30 minutes later, the punching fight inside my stomach started, grumbling and murmering....I thought yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... and ran for the pack to see what on earth would be in original rice crackers

there it was............rice flour, seasoning powder,soy sauce powder (contains soy,hydrolysed wheat flavour enhancers)

I am just posting this as a warning to others!.........I guess noone else would be as stupid as I was...

and trusted that rice crackers with gluten free written all over it would be fine!

The brand of the crackers is "FANTASTIC"

I will never ever eat a dang rice cracker again after this.............If I wake up with gluten head again tomorrow... because of this... I am not going to be happy!....I've just endured 4 days now looks like I will have endure more........I was so careful but nor careful enough and fell sucker to what I believed was safe!

This was in another post , but thought I would add it to this....

AS WARNING!!!!...............

Gluten Free Snacks - Fantastic Rice Crackers Original 100g (A ... Fantastic Rice Crackers Original 100g (A) Gluten Free Gluten Free Snacks -

how could it be gluten free?

Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein - A protein from wheat which has been turned partly into water through hydrolysis. Proteins are the nitrogen carrying constituents of living cells. Protein treatments are said to be beneficial to hair and skin.

So really hydrolyzed wheat is an extract from wheat?

This is so wrong!....

The way they misrepresent, Wheat =gluten

Well that's what I was lead to believe?.....

So they call a wheat product another name?... and it changes it from having gluten or other reactive substances?

I live in Australia and I really thought they were quite stringent on labeling, apparently they aren't?

and I just found this statement from Fantastic snacks

      Digestive symptoms yet negative celiac screening

      You may know this already, but in addition to what you've described, you may also want to get a genetic test. About 1/3 of people have one of the genetic markers that are necessary (but not sufficient) for getting celiac. If your son is one of the 2/3 of people that don't have the marker then it is almost certain he does not have celiac. (The genetic test...

      Fiber-Metabolizing Bacteria Could Boost Gut Health in Celiac Disease

      That is really interesting, especially because it points to how the gut microbiome may still stay altered in celiac disease even after going gluten-free. The idea that a fiber like inulin could help feed beneficial bacteria and reduce inflammation is encouraging, although I imagine some people with celiac disease or other gut issues might still need to introduce...

      Digestive symptoms yet negative celiac screening

      @Irishgirl5, it does sound possible for those numbers to fluctuate a bit, especially when they are near the upper end of normal, but ongoing symptoms still make it understandable that you are concerned. The fact that his tissue transglutaminase immunoglobulin A is still technically in range does not always make the picture feel any clearer, especially with...

      trehalose intolerance

      @Stegosaurus, that is really interesting, and it sounds like you have done a lot of careful digging into what might be driving your symptoms. The connection between dysbiosis, food reactions, and specific additives or sugars is clearly complicated, but your point about hidden ingredients and individual tolerance makes a lot of sense. It is also encouraging...

The idea that a fiber like inulin could help feed beneficial bacteria and reduce inflammation is encouraging, although I imagine some people with celiac disease or other gut issues might still need to introduce it carefully depending on tolerance. It definitely feels like an area worth watching, because anything that could help support healing beyond just avoiding gluten would be valuable.

      @Irishgirl5, it does sound possible for those numbers to fluctuate a bit, especially when they are near the upper end of normal, but ongoing symptoms still make it understandable that you are concerned. The fact that his tissue transglutaminase immunoglobulin A is still technically in range does not always make the picture feel any clearer, especially with tummy pain, nausea, constipation, and diarrhea still going on. Anxiety can certainly add to gastrointestinal symptoms, but I can see why you would not want to assume that explains everything. It sounds like keeping an eye on things and being cautious with diet changes makes sense, especially if symptoms continue. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      @Stegosaurus, that is really interesting, and it sounds like you have done a lot of careful digging into what might be driving your symptoms. The connection between dysbiosis, food reactions, and specific additives or sugars is clearly complicated, but your point about hidden ingredients and individual tolerance makes a lot of sense. It is also encouraging that you found something, like the fermented Florastor approach, that seems to help you tolerate certain foods better. Posts like this are helpful because they remind people that sometimes the reaction is not just about the obvious ingredient on the label.
