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.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin. In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began...

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
