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? :)

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos.  I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.
