Heinz Ketchup--YES :D

Kraft Ranch--yes i believe, but I have never read the label or eaten it myself. Kraft will not hide any form on gluten--it will be listed on the ingredient statement. So read the label, and if it does not state wheat, barley, rye or oats, you can have it. Have you gotten the delphi gluten-free food list yet?

Also-look at these brands below. Kaiti has posted this list that I love--none of these manufactuers will hide gluten ingredients--like Kraft. But with other brands, you will need to call and follow up at times. I keep a binder of info and responses I get from manufacturers on their products.

It's so frustrating that Kraft doesn't just put the words "GLUTEN FREE" on it's products that are gluten-free. It's a big secret that they WILL NOT HIDE gluten. I'm less interested in the fact that they're so forthcoming with the gluten and more interested in when they'll just start labeling products gluten free. It's like an annoying joke that never ends to constantly inform people that Kraft is not "hiding gluten". They may not be "HIDING GLUTEN", but they're hiding the fact that they don't hide it.

Just drives me crazy. :angry:

Kraft Ranch Dressing is gluten free. Jen put the list for you of brands that will clearly indicate the presence of gluten. They will not hide anything under otherwise questionable ingredients. If those labels do not say wheat,rye,barley,oats on them then they will be safe.

Also, Jen's suggestion on the Delphi list is a really good one. That list is 79 pages long and has foods,drinks,products, etc. It does not have everything but it is a good list.

Also, the safe and forbidden lists on here would help out quite a bit if you don't know what all gluten can hide under. Here is the link for that:

      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?

      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.
