Please don't tell me you think I should be eating those spiders I squish ... at least I know they're gluten- and dairy-free!

You know, these days my motto is "If I'm not allergic to or intolerant of it, I can and will eat it." So pass the spiders. They gotta be a good source of protein. B)

(Serious face) Most spiders aren't good for humans to eat. The general rule is not to eat spiders. Insects that are not furry or colorful are ususally a good source of protein - cockroaches, ants, grasshoppers, earthworms. And all are gluten-free, dairy and soy free.

Now wait a cotton-pickin minute here. Grasshoppers, gluten-free? I fail to digress. Or I do not so agree. The grasshoppers where I grew up lived in the green, green grassy fields, and ate all kinds of plants, including prolly wild wheat, rye, and barley. They would just nibble away on it like it was a juicy salad, and every once in a while spit out a big juicy patooie to clear their throats. Now ifn ya wuz to et one of them grassyhoppers without giving it a thorough enema and a stomach-pumping, complete with a charcoal wash-through, woodn't cha risk a bout of grasshopper CC? I think some gluten-free ppm testing is in order here! :unsure::ph34r::(:blink::o:D

By the way, they make great fish bait! :)

Thanks for the tip on the cilantro Dixiebell! :)

Grasshoppers, called Inago in Japanese are an essential part of the fall special meals -- Kaiseki ryori.

As a kid in Chicago you could buy chocolate covered ants and grasshoppers at Marshall Fields, now Macys.

Got them for my sister once -- back in the 50s-- I wonder if thats why she doesnt talk to me so muchlaugh.gif

I can't stand the taste of cilantro, so no problem. I probably wouldn't like bugs either!

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
