No Name Brand Corn Chips

do these chips contain gluten?

I had a small handful tonight without even thinking and a couple hours later I'm in tears, blowing everything out of proportion again.

I had some canned beans before that with some salsa, but I don't think it could be that?

I don't have a No Name chips package here to look at, but what makes you suspect them? I have never encountered corn chips that had gluten in them. I would look at the salsa first.

I assume there are no gluten ingredients. Does the bag say anything about shared equipment?

I guess just because I usually eat the salsa and feel ok. but I never eat corn chips. I'm just starting to get very discouraged. it feels sometimes like I cant eat anything. sometimes I wonder if it's even wheat or if I just react to everything :(

I'm sorry! just venting!

Yeah, we can definitely react to more than gluten. A lot of us have a little trouble with grains and starchy foods in general. Tomatoes kill me, especially raw.

I read the GAPS book available at Open Original Shared Link and it was a real eye-opener. Some people have really messed up gut bacteria and starchy foods and sugar feed them and keep things out of balance. GAPS is a diet designed to rebalance your system and seal your gut so you don't have so many GI problems. It's similar to the Specific Carbohydrate diet. If you don't seem to tolerate grains, sugar, and starchy foods very well, you might take a look. It may be particularly helpful if you are not diagnosed celiac, but find you feel somewhat better off wheat.

Also remember that corn is a major allergen so it might be that you're a little allergic to it. Or it could be gluten CC, but I found all my unexplained reactions were actually other foods. It was confusing because sometimes I can get away with one food I can't tolerate, like a little dairy, but mix two like dairy and tomato on a Greek salad, or throw in something generally hard to tolerate like red wine and I get all messed up.

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.
