What To Do About Inaccurate Info On Forum

Just saw some posts that gave food advice that I think is very wrong. I posted that I hoped one was a typo & the info from the resturaunts website saying the fries have wheat. Is there anything else we should do? I have noticed some other "odd" or questionable stuff sometimes. Thanks

Post your opinion/concern, as you did, and ask the person to provide the source of the data. If you aren't up for this, and you think the info may be potentially dangerous, report the post so the mods know to look at it.

Thanks. Duh! I didn't see the lovely "report" button. You know I'm not shy so if I know they are wrong & might hurt someone, I'll speak up.

realize, however, that in many cases, things are a simple right or wrong on this subject.

take the example of McDonald's fries. there was a big hubub here (and elsewhere, I'm sure) about McDonald's announcing that one of their flavoring ingredients could contain wheat, but it was gluten free because of how processed it was. independent testing showed the fries to be gluten free, but there is the potential for controversy. (and someone please correct me if I'm misremembering, since I never eat there anyway.)

the same is true for anything with CODEX wheat starch. ;)

I just got back on & see where I made a big typo. I apologized for the bad mistake. Remember we all are human & crap happens.

You can edit your own post for 48 hours after making it. If you become aware of a serious error after the window has closed, make a report explaining what needs to be corrected. One of us who can will make the edit for you. The report button is at the lower left corner of each post, including your own.

You have an excellent reputation. Those of us that "know" you could tell it was just a typo. :)

I think I said that I hoped that was a typo. The girl is new & I didn't want her to think you can pick stuff off or eat a little. Especially since she was having cheating issues. Truce? :)

      @trents first response: can you direct me to that particular section of this site for NCGS or and are there any groups I can join for people with NCGS? second response: I can’t really remember due to it was some or a few years back but I believe she did blood tests or work on me or I think she did a glucose test on me.

      There is not a distinct section in this particular online resource and community devoted to those with NCGS. And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online. But your question makes me think celiac.com might entertain the idea of starting a forum within our community for that purpose. I should explain that celiac.com...

      @trents one more question is there a site or forum like this site strictly for NCGS people? Or is this the only one just asking out of curiosity.

      @Healthierbody2026, how sensitive to minor amounts of gluten are you? Do you react to cross contamination exposures or just to larger exposures, like when wheat, barley or rye (or their derivatives) are listed as an ingredient? Do have a read on this yet?

And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online. But your question makes me think celiac.com might entertain the idea of starting a forum within our community for that purpose. I should explain that celiac.com is divided into a number of separate forums, each devoted to a different topic or concern within the gluten intolerant/gluten sensitive population. Having said that, the main is on those with celiac disease (or their support systems) rather than those with NCGS because it has more serious long-term health implications. I see. Can you elaborate on how you were tested to arrive at this diagnosis?

      @trents if you have any information or advice you can give or provide to help make it easier to live and eat with this diagnosis would be greatly appreciated. Trying to learn and get used to this new life and way of living and any recommendations for places in Alabama would be helpful as well
