What Does It Mean?

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:

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!

      Have you tried a genetic test to look for Celiac genes?  No gluten challenge required.

      Hello, @ElisaAllergiesgluten, Have you tried going on a low histamine Paleo diet like the Autoimmune Protocol diet?  A low histamine AIP diet would help your body rid itself of the extra histamine it's making in response to allergies.  Are you Celiac as well?   Since we need more thiamine when we're stressed, adding Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine Vitamin B 1, can help the body calm down it's release of histamine.  Benfotiamine improves Sailors' asthma.

      Don't skimp on the gluten daily while undergoing the gluten challenge!

      So, I've been using a gluten free labeled toothpaste since being diagnosed with celiac. No big deal, the toothpaste seems to work. Question is, I just realized it contains hydrated silica.  Now, I've heard that silicon dioxide can cause issues in some people with celiac (was that ever confirmed though?), so to be safe, I cut it out of my diet entirely. But, as I understand it, hydrated silica is related to silicon dioxide. Is that something to worry about, or is the hydrated form not known to cause issues like the silicon dioxide form?  I've never seen it in food, but nearly every toothpaste I look at contains hydrated silica?  Issue or not?  Any scientific research (Not opinion pieces, not health bloggers, you get my gist), but actual science, that says it's an issue? I have a hard time believing 99% of what I read on random internet searches.    Thanks so much, Renee.
