Hi everyone, I've only registered on this site today, and I've already had lots of advice which I thank you all, but what does 'glutened' mean?

Welcome to the forum!

Basically, it means that someone that generally does not eat gluten, has ingested gluten, either accidental (cross-contamination with a gluten source) or on purpose.

For example, someone may eat at a restaurant, get sick from cross contamination, and say they were "glutened." Or, they may eat a product, and then later realize it wasn't gluten free - they were "glutened."

Happygirl is correct.

As a linguist of sorts, I will offer that this is a good example of a noun being "verbed." For example, you can't "Xerox" a document, but you can copy it using a Xerox machine. You can't "Hoover" the rug, but you can clean it using a Hoover vacuum cleaner. :angry:

Rant over.

Welcome aboard. :)

Well, yes, you may object to "verbed " nouns (or "nouned" verbs or "adjectived" verbs) but they are devilishly convenient and often more descriptive. To state that one has been glutened is totally different from stating that one has consumed gluten; the former implies a negativity, something that has been done to one (that one did not desire), while the latter is a neutral statement.

By the way, what does "mean" mean?? :o (Remind you of anyone? :lol: )

Enough silliness. Sorry to turn your perfectly proper question into nonsense, evey67, but I hope it at least answered your question. We usually reserve such silliness for the Silly Yaks thread.

Thank you all for the little titter I had over some replies, but most of all for the clarification of that point :wacko:

      Dedicated gluten-free Restaurants in East Bay (near San Francisco):

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      Chances of being coeliac

      By trents · Posted

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.
