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.

      Hi Cristiana! It's so nice to meet you! Thank you for the kind reply I am glad I live in a time where you can connect with others through the Internet. That is a mercy I am grateful for.

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Fruits & Veggies

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
