They are on my forbidden list but also listed in the ingredients of many gluten-free items. What's up with that?

If it is made in North America it is likely to be gluten free.

Thanks, I see it a lot as an ingredient in ice cream and wonder if I can just assume it is gluten-free since it's made in America?

Well what brand is it? Some brands like Kraft, Breyers, etc will not hide wheat,rye,barley,oats under any hidden ingredients so you would just have to check the label for those 4 ingredients instead of having to look and call for every questionable ingredient.

Most of the time mono and diglycerides are fine BUT there is a small chance even in the US that it can contain wheat so you should verify with the manufacturer.

This is what I found from glutenfreeliving.com:

Mono and diglycerides are fats and therefore gluten free. But there has been concern that a gluten-containing carrier might be used to make them perform as the food processor wants.

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      Very interesting, @Idnam.  When I was experiencing this problem at its worse, I found high carb meals like lots of rice or too many cookies were a trigger.

      Oh my, I have always had the symptoms for B12 deficiency, which is why I had the blood test that led to my celiac disease diagnosis I had been taking  B vits have been always been amazed that all ,my bloods were perfectly normal! I queried this many times with my doctor as to whether the B12 was active and being absorbed or whether it was just in my bloodstream. They dismissed this idea. And of course I still take them. Thank you so much, what a revelation and really quite understandable,  I am about due for my annual full blood test so maybe I will just stop taking them?

      False tTG3 Test?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @SB04, Have you been checked for B12 deficiency?  A deficiency in Vitamin B12 will cause hives and also raise the tTg 3 IgG level, even in people without Celiac Disease.   You can have B12 deficiency without having Celiac Disease.   All eight B vitamins work together.  Do not supplement just a single B vitamin.   Best wishes.
