I want to know lists... What do I avoid? How do I avoid it if I don't know what carries gluten? Being given the celiac blood test this week and hurting, hurting, hurting...

Shampoos, toothpastes, soaps, drinks, cream cheese? Where do I get these lists?

The forbidden list will help you out...I gave you the link to that in your other post.https://www.celiac.com/st_main.html?p_catid=12

Here it is again and the forbidden list will help you as a guideline for what is questionable and what you need to avoid.

I eat Kraft cream cheese..all you have to do is check the label because they will not hide anything...these companies are a Godsend.

Toothpastes...all Crest and Colgate is gluten free

Dove is a brand that will not hide anything either so I use their shampoo, soap, conditioner and hairspray

Softsoap liquid soap is gluten free

https://www.celiac.com/st_main.html?p_catid...-17105445293.27

This is a link to some mainstream items lists of some stuff that is gluten free

All pepsi, co. softdrinks are gluten-free, coke has a list they'll send you.Try to avoid generic brands. Don't get the supermarket colas, as they aren't necessarily gluten-free. You often need to call to check.

100% juices are gluten free

Milk is gluten free and some soymilk is but with soymilk you need to check from brand to brand. I love silk soymilk and they have alot of gluten free products.

There are alot of great gluten free foods its a matter of finding the brands that are good...everyone here will help you out..

If you have any questions just ask :D

Yes, I forgot about that. The Delphi list is 79 pages long and awesome. celiac3270 posted about it and gave directions for how to get it:

1) Go to the website, Open Original Shared Link

2) Click on "messages" or "start reading"

3) Select the folder "gluten-free Product List"

4) Click on the topic called "Downloadable files word"

5) Of the four options, choose the one in the upper right.

What's so frustrating is that while coke and icecream can be gluten free often they have CORN in them!!!!

That's ok. Don't think I'll be doing milk for a while cause I am hurting... Staying away from starchies for a while.

      Is it gluten?

      Thanks for the reply.

      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.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

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