Olive Oil

Recommended Posts

Has anyone else had problems with olive oil. I didn't realize that it wasn't 100% olive oil so possibly it had an oil we are supposed to

avoid. I am new to this and still learning every day.

thanks

I don't know what "olive oil" you are using, but the olive oil I use is 100% pure olive oil. If something else is present, it would have to be declared in the ingredient list (at least in the US and Canada). Oil from another source would have an explicit name (e.g. peanut oil) or just be listed as "vegetable oil." But "olive oil" as an ingredient can only refer to pure olive oil.

ya, im pretty sure it's ONLY Olive oil- and i sure as hell hope so... cause i have to avoid a lot of things in addition to gluten. i did see an article that exposed that the food companies were being dishonest about grading their olive oil. ie: some bottles that say Xtra Virgin are not really xtra virgin, but just regular.

I have had problems with olive oil. I don't know if it is from adulteration or not. Here is a source Open Original Shared Link

I did find an olive oil I could tolerate after several attempts. I am very sensitive, hopefully you will find one more easily.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
