Oil


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

I need to add some cooking oil to my rice "stuffing" I don't want to use olive oil b/c I don't want that taste in it. It calls for vegetable oil (which I think is soybean oil and I avoid that) I have canola in the house, would that work and is it 100% safe from a gluten standpoint? I don't want to make myself or the other celiac coming sick!

Also, can any of the cooking oils be substituted when a recipe calls for vegetable oil?

Thanks

Canola oil should be fine. I saw older posts which said they buy light olive oil in the super stores to bake with, maybe you'll like light Olive Oil, something to try...

Happy Thanksgiving from Popeye. :D;)

"Vegetable oil" is a generic term that covers any oil that is plant-based. Canola oil is gluten-free. Olive oil is gluten-free, but as you noted, adds a flavor--that may or may not be what you want. Light olive oil has less flavor.

You can use any liquid cooking oil in a recipe that calls for vegetable oil. Canola, sunflower, corn, soy, safflower, olive, peanut, or blends like Wesson all work. They are all gluten-free. I think olive is the healthiest so I use light olive oil when I want a neutral-tasting oil.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
