Thanks everyone. No wonder I feel like crap today ( I ate it yesterday) and I am sure I will feel it later. Such a learning process.

The word WHEAT is a big no-no!

Wheat flour contains gluten. You also might watch for distilled vinegar in things. I react to that.

Some people react to vinegar, but it is generally accepted that distilled vinegar is gluten-free; in the US, if the source was wheat it would have to be explicitly stated. Most vinegar in North America is made from apples (corn is the next most common source). The only vinegar that is a concern in terms of gluten is malt vinegar, and it will always be listed as just that, "Malt Vinegar."

Yes, it is quite a learning a process. So you know, gluten comes from wheat, rye, and barley. You should also avoid oats as there is often wheat growing in the oat fields. Once you're well you can try specially grown gluten-free oats.

Processed foods are hardest until you learn to read labels because of all the various processed ingredients and flavorings made from wheat and barley (like malt). It can be in unexpected places like your mustard. Even if a label seems OK, gluten can get into foods on factory lines and you'll react if you're sensitive. There's a lot of learning about brands and what you can and can't tolerate.

I'd suggest you stick to a lot of natural, whole foods at first. Fruits, vegetables, plain nuts and seeds, eggs, beans, potatoes, rice, and meats or fish you cook yourself with plain herbs and spices (no spice mixes) are all naturally gluten-free. Milk, cheese, and Yoplait brand yogurt are OK too but a lot of new celiacs don't handle milk very well. If you eat processed foods it's best to stick to ones that say "gluten free" on the label at first.

Thanks for letting me know about the oatmeal as well. I have started drinking soy milk as well. No Cheese but did eat yogurt. So now I will cut that out for awhile too. My dr tried to say it was Chrons off of some blood work but I dont feel it is that. I dont have the typical symptoms of Chrons. No bleeding, no high white blood count. My esophinal's were positive and my dr suspected a food allergy because of that. The only reason he said maybe Chrons is a positive Saccharomyces Cerevisiae IgG and IgA count. I need an at home gluten free chef....

you know those businesses where you can order meals by the week and they are delivered? maybe there is a business op. here. If not that, maybe some weekly networking with like minded and have big cooking party?
