Hi,

I am new to this forum and also to celiac disease. I am wondering if A1 sauce is gluten free. Also I am wondering about Cool whip and Jello. Any answers are very much appreciated.

Welcome to the forum!

All three of those are Kraft brands. Kraft will clearly identify, by name, any gluten grain in the ingredients list. If you don't see wheat, barley, rye or oats in the list, then the product is gluten-free.

Thank you, Peter! I will probably be asking more questions as I am still learning. I have been gluten free for 3 weeks and it is getting a little easier.

Kraft is a celiac-friendly manufacturer. There are many others.

Open Original Shared Link If you don't see wheat, rye, barley, or oats, as one of those words, on their labels, it's not there. It won't be hidden in flavors, starches, etc.

In the USA under FALCPA (in effect since January 1, 2006) wheat must always be explicitly declared, but that law does not cover rye and barely. FALCPA applies to packaged foods sold in the US, regardless of where they are made.

Reading labels will become a habit. Here a couple of links that will be helpful when the company is not on the list above:

Unsafe ingredients.

Safe ingredients.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
