Hello amazing community! :D

I am 7 weeks gluten free and Celiac Positive. Today I tried Tree of Life Almond Butter and my nose starting running, the head started getting stuffy, and my chest pain started to get worse (my main symptom of Celiac has been severe chest pain/costochondritis for 3 1/2 year- OUCH).

Has anyone else had a reaction to Almond Butter? I'll call tomorrow and talk to the company once again, maybe it was CC....I'm at the point in the process where most things I put in my mouth cause my pain to increase except bananas. My tummy is TICKED at me. AHHH!!

Many Hugs to All! Thanks in advance! =)

I had secondary intolerances to all nuts and seeds for a few months after going gluten free. I also had issues with my sons dipping their gluteny stuff into the nut butters before they went gluten free as well. Shared household? And did you eat it plain or on something? These are the fun detective duties we get to perform when learning the ropes ;)

After I switched to a low-carb diet and started using almond flour, nuts and nut butter I developed an allergy to them, so it could be a true allergy. Skin testing with ditary elimination and challenge has been helpful for me.

The same thing happened to me. I agree with the testing--both for "true" allergy and intolerance. For determining intolerance, elimination is the best way.

Thank you everyone for taking the time to share that with me! I'll definitely be doing the allergy and intolerance testing soon then....thanks so much!

      Wheat Straw Dishes

      By SophiesMom · Posted

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Cruise and GliadinX

      By StevieP. · Posted

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By Hope07 · Posted

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
