how many 'days' or weeks of being wheat free does it take to see if i am in fact allergic to wheat? i break out in horrible clusters of hives (on my legs only) and am at a loss.

everyone's system is different

that being said, if you eat wheat and you feel like garbage & then break out in hives, that's prob a sign

if you want to be more "scientific" w/o formal allergy testing, go 2-3 weeks and then have some bread or a nice wheat beer

i get a double whammy since i'm also yeast allergic

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      In addition to cutting out oats, you may want to investigate any medications or supplements you're taking - they can sometimes contain gluten.  You can check medication ingredients online at sites like DailyMed (www.dailymed.nlm.nih.gov).

      I think the best you will be able to do is to find out if gluten, or at least wheat, barley or rye is an intentional ingredient in a smoke product and only the manufacturer can answer that question. Since smokes are regulated by the AFT and not the FDA, allergens are not required to be declared in the labeling.

      Welcome to the forum, @brian weinstein! Gluten is a protein found in wheat barley and rye kernels. Pectin is a polysaccharide (a very complex sugar) found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. It is most commonly used as a thickening agent in food products, particularly jellies. So, pectin is naturally gluten free. That is not to the same as saying the cigar is gluten free.  Personally, I am reluctant to text you. I think most of us would feel the same way. Too many people already have access to our cell phone numbers.
