I am new here, but not new to eating gluten free. I have been eating dairy free for over 3 years now and gluten free for almost 4 months. I also just determined I have a reaction to peanuts. And I am wondering about soy as well.

I have a family: DH and DD have no diet restrictions, both DSs are dairy free. Since I cook all our meals, I can control what goes into them. We have given up a lot of restaurant places to eat dairy free and now even those safe for dairy free have to be discontinued due to my gluten free eating.

So just trying to get a handle on juggling everyone's needs and balance the food budget. I just got over a week and a half of loose poo and have no desire to go there again any time soon.

Ok, so questions: I use glass pots which get washed in the dishwasher. Are they safe for both gluten and gluten free cooking? (not that I do much cooking that has gluten anymore). I have one stainless steel skillet that I scrub and then send through the dishwasher. I may use it occasionally to make pancakes, but am leaning on going all gluten free for that stuff too...

I store all leftovers in glass pyrex storage. That should be fine sent through the dishwasher if it had gluten in it, right? I am gonna replace the cake pans. Should I just go for glass, or maybe stainless steel?

I have a ceramic pan that I cook fries on for me to eat, but it is also used for gluten filled breaded chicken. I scrub it with running hot water before using it for fries. Should I stop eating fries cooked on that pan?

I am thinking of getting a dedicated toaster for myself. Right now I take a new piece of tin foil and use that to cover the rack in the toaster oven to toast my gluten free bagel in the morning. Any thoughts on how safe that is?

I know some of this is based on how sensative someone is, but I would really love opinions of people who have been there and their own experiences. I really love being headache and diareh free...

Thanks!

I am new to gluten free- about 2 months. I am feeling so much better!

I was told:

dedicated toaster

dedicated cutting board

new cooking utensils if the old ones/ones used for cooking gluteny foods are plastic or rubbery

I have gluten eaters in my family. I cook my pasta first, then theirs.

I wash my hands a lot!!

Hope this helps!

Welcome to the board!

A dedicated toaster for sure. Most dishes and cutlery will be safe after being run through a dishwasher, especially if ones that have gluten residue are rinsed prior to loading. If your cutting board is wood, don't share it. Same goes for wooden spoons (or anything else made of wood--it is porous). Wire mesh strainers can trap gluten where the wires cross.

Glass, stainless steel, and ceramic (unless scratched or cracked) clean well and can be shared if washed properly.

All I replaced was the toaster, cutting board, and my wooden spoons.

Hi, I got a new toaster, new breadmaker, I replaced everything that was made of teflon(bakeware, pans). So I got quite a bunch of new things.

The glassware, stainless steel and ceramic's okay to keep. Just wash them really good. Stoneware is porous so I would replace that, if you have any. Same with non-stick pans(I was told by my GI dr), and also cutting boards.

Hope this helps.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
