Gluten Free Foods Uk

Hi,

Could any one tell me where I could find a list of gluten free foods available in the UK ?

Thank - you very much

My problem is I am taking my son who is celiac, dairy free and soy free. He also has a food phobia. Last time we visited the UK he survived on popcorn and ribena for 2 weeks. We usually do not have a lot of down time to go to supermarket as this is a visit the relatives and none of them has gluten friendly houses. I did have the directory last time and it was almost useful, but that was before your ppm was reduced.

The new about Whole Foods is great.

Thanks

I don't think you will need any lists as the UK is pretty gluten-free friendly and food is available in most grocery stores there.

There is a new Whole Foods Market in London that is amazing and has a huge selection of gluten-free stuff. I can recommend a bread that is the best I have ever had....Genius gluten-free bread. I wish it were available here in the States because it really is the best I have had so far. I was just there on vacation and did not have any trouble finding gluten-free food and snacks....even the restaurants are doing gluten-free menu's. Not all, but I found many that did.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease. 
    • JettaGirl
      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
