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.

      Barilla gluten free pasta

      That is a very old study that concludes "Hypothetically, maize prolamins could be harmful for a very limited subgroup of CD patients", and I've not seen any substantive studies that support the idea that corn would be a risk for celiacs, although some people with celiac disease could have a separate intolerance to it, just like those without celiac disease...

      Do Severe Symptoms at Celiac Diagnosis Predict Long-Term Health? (+Video)

      I agree, @Flash1970, I've found a grain free diet more beneficial, too. I like the Autoimmune Protocol diet, a paleo diet, which removes potential problematic foods while healing after diagnosis, then can be expanded and easily maintained long term.

      @cristiana, It's the same here, doctors check just Vitamin D and B12 routinely. The blood tests for other B vitamins are so inaccurate, or expensive and time consuming, doctors tend to gloss over their importance. B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted in urine.

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      Welcome to the forum @colinukcoeliac. Letting them know that they lost a customer because they could not satisfy cross contamination needs may incline them to fix that problem. It was good of tnem to alert you. The more they know...

      Great Value Veggies cannot be trusted.

      It seems a lot of Kroger products are like this. I always read their labels carefully.

      @cristiana,  It's the same here, doctors check just Vitamin D and B12 routinely.  The blood tests for other B vitamins are so inaccurate, or expensive and time consuming, doctors tend to gloss over their importance.   B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted in urine.  Some people need to be careful with Pyridoxine B6 because they can store it longer than most due to genetics.  A symptom of Pyridoxine B6 deficiency is peripheral neuropathy.  Taking Pyridoxine B6 will relieve the neuropathy, but excess Pyridoxine can also cause peripheral neuropathy.  So, if neuropathy symptoms return, stop taking the Pyridoxine and it will resolve quickly as the excess Pyridoxine is used.  But the body still needs the other B vitamins, so taking them separately without Pyridoxine can be an option.   If one is low in Vitamin D, one may also be low in the other fat soluble vitamins, A, E, and K.  Vitamin K is important to bone and circulatory  health.  Vitamin A helps improve the health of the intestine, eyes, skin and other mucus membranes.  Vitamin E helps our immune system stay healthy.   Important minerals, iron, magnesium and calcium, as well as a dozen or so trace minerals are important, too.  They need the B vitamins to be utilized, too.   Our gluten free diets can be low in B vitamins.  Our absorption can be affected for many years while we're healing.  Supplementing with B vitamins boosts our absorption and helps our bodies and our brains function at optimal levels.   Hope this helps!

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      By colinukcoeliac · Posted

      Hi. I went to a UK local restaurant that website / ring up said they provided "Gluten Free" food. When placing the order, the waitress & manager then told us they couldn't guarantee contamination occurs and would do their best.  It didn't give me confidence and we politely left. I wrote them an email and received a polite reply, again saying they provide "Gluten Free" food but can't "guarantee contamination occurs". Specifically; their email states "I would like to clarify that while many of our products are indeed gluten-free, the very nature of our open kitchen, storage practices, and the close proximity of fryers alongside the use of gluten-containing products, means we cannot guarantee a completely gluten-free preparation environment." Many queries arise, but my main one is - Should they be displaying on their website "Gluten Free" if they don't have a gluten-free preparation environment ? I will continue to do my own research on the matter, mainly what should my expectations be from a restaurant advertising a "Gluten Free" menu. However, I would benefit a gossip with someone on the topic, or if can you direct me to more information. Thanks, Colin.
