Milk, eggs, MSG, rice and potatoes are all gluten-free.

Celiac disease damages the villi, and as a result can cause temporary lactose intolerance until the villi have healed. The villi produce the enzyme lactase which is needed to digest lactose.

Pure oats are tolerated by many celiacs, but most commercially available oats are contaminated with wheat. Again, they are best avoided until the villi are fully healed. Then try them carefully.

Many celiacs have other intolerances as well. Some of us have to avoid dairy, but not all of us. I am fine with dairy.

Milk is fine unless you've developed an intolerance to dairy due to the damage done to the villi in your intestines.

Eggs are fine

MSG is fine, but like anything else, can be a problem for some.

Oats are a problem for many. Some people do fine with gluten free oats.

Rice is fine, just not the packaged rice mixes. I have issues with anything sugar related, so I stay away from rice most of the time.

Flour....no to white or wheat flour, durum, rye, semolina, or spelt....yes to rice flour, buckwheat, teff, amaranth.

I'm sure if I've missed something, someone else will chime in ;)

BTW....Peter what did you do that I couldn't repond earlier???.........I kept trying to post my response, and then find out you beat me to it! <_<

It wasn't me, although I had the same problem. I went back after my reply failed and copied the reply to the clipboard (Ctrl-A followed by Ctrl-C). Then discovered that another mod had moved the topic from coping to ingredients while I was replying. Went there and successfully posted. I think I know who did it; Darn210 was reading when I started my reply. <_<

Dairy and cheese are safe for many celiacs though if you have had many GI symptoms, you may need to give it time before they are okay for you. i was diagnosed in aug of 06 and in december i tried dairy again successfully...

if you have problems with dairy then you can narrow it down to a lactose issue or a casein issue.

oats are safe if they are certified gluten free, as previously stated, some can tolerate, some can't. i can and have no problems

MSG is one of those things that is gluten free but som people still have issues. i cant have any.. even a small packet of ranch dressing with MSG will have me sick for the rest of the day.... again, you may have to try and see for you.

eggs should be safe, if you get sick from them, its probably an egg allergy

rice and potatoes (as well as every other fresh vegetable and fruit) are completely safe. for packaged rice and potato dishes the ingredient list should always always always be checked.

wheat and related grain flours are unsafe. a few of the safew flours include: rice flours, potato flour, tapioca flour/starch, corn starch, corn meal, sorghum (tolerated by many celiacs), bean flours, millet flour, buckwheat (sounds misleading but it is not related to wheat).... there are many others.... im sure someone will add to this!

hope some of this helps

As far as potatoes go, they are gluten free but some of us have a problem with them. Like me, I have a problem with all nightshade vegetables, which are potatoes, tomatoes, all peppers from bell peppers, jalapenos, to black pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, etc, eggplant and okra. I eat anything with these in the ingredients, My symptoms will range from pain all thru my body to diarreah within 10 minutes after eating.

MSG gives me heartburn, sweats, shakes, bloating and bad gas.

Aspartame will give me heavy fatigue, diarreah, and sharp stomach pain.

Sugar gives me fatigue, dizziness and heart papatations.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
