Brigadoon! Groundhog day! We get to do it again!

Well, so glad to see that Senators Leahy and Wyden, plus the others who put on that "awareness" thing in DC, may have had some effect on this FDA logjam !

Ken, can you have a look at this, and tell us if you think this is a typo or not?

It's from Boston.com

Now, though, the agency is moving forward with a new standard that manufacturers will be required to meet before they can slap on the gluten-free label. Federal officials are proposing that cookies, bread, and other wheat products making this claim can contain no more that 20 parts per million of gluten, a level below which gluten can

I'm still thinking about this issue and trying to decide how to respond/comment. I really hope those are typo's! Would love to read some other's thoughts and comments on this.

Got it open finally -- thanks for the Link-- not sure what to make of it all -- They seem to have ti down pat in Italy --

here there are too many companies with big $ gumming up the works.

I commented on the ruling and said I want gluten free* with an asterisc if there is up to 20ppm of gluten, with a clarification posted on the label.

We are looking for foods that are free from ANY gluten, which is vital to our health, not low in gluten. If several of those items are consumed daily they add up to trouble!

Once a person is diagnosed they are told to eat NO gluten. We have to rely on good labeling to ensue we are not consuming it.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
