I just thought I'd share that I have found wheat inbetween pure fresh chicken livers and also today I found wheat pieces in the lentils. I've been getting ill from eating soup with lentils in it and wondered why, now I know. The chicken livers are prepared with the other chicken intestines and wheat pieces makes its way inbetween the liver pieces which could be washed out, but I personally wouldn' risk it that tiny crushed pieces stays stuck inbetween.

Thank you for sharing such valuable information with us!

The Canadian Celiac Association specifically calls out lentils for some reason,

If using lentils, be sure to meticulously pick them over before putting in the pot to cook. Even if you buy them packaged, it is not uncommon to find kernels of wheat or oats (or pebbles) in with the lentils.
It looks like they have updated their site recently too - I like it! Open Original Shared Link

We dropped lentils a long time ago, but it would be so nice to figure out a way to test clean lentils in our diet. It is odd how many foods we dropped in the past thinking we had an issue with that food, simply not understanding how contaminated with gluten our food can be. It didn't help that the cross contamination realities can be quite difficult to find! We also have to be super careful with chicken, and it took me a LONG time to figure that out!! I kept thinking it was *something else* that kept glutening me.

Thanks again for the great information!!

I've found wheat in (gluten free) whole grain sorghum, corn, and millet as well as lentils.

I've found enough pebbles in bags of lentils that I always pick them over and rinse them well. I haven't found wheat in them, but I'm not terribly surprised.

Yeah, there's wheat flour in tomato soup too.

I eat lentils all the time with no problems. AWG has Best Choice Lentils on their gluten free list, so maybe I'm just lucky those are safe! I did notice that all the dry beans at Wal-Mart have the disclosure "May contain traces of wheat."

Anyway, Best Choice brand seems to be a good choice if you have it in your area.

I missed tomato soup so much. Then I discovered Heinz tomato soup in the 'ethnic' section of my grocery store with foods from England. It is imported and last I checked it was gluten-free, I haven't had it in a few months though. If you have a 'British' section like that in a store near you check.

Pacific natural foods has gluten-free roasted red pepper and tomato soup. I think they had a different tomato one, too. I have found these at a regular grocery.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
