Warning On Cross-Contamination

I was watching the latest version of MasterChef last night, which involved 16 contestants in two teams baking bread for a local artisan bakery to be delivered to the Auckland Hilton Hotel. One of the loaves that each of the two teams had to bake was a gluten free carrot loaf (??). The baker on the red team was a celiac so felt right at home. The baker on the blue team was a bit discombobulated and ended up being the one eliminated. . But both made the same mistake - which was pointedly pointed out to them. They were each peparing their loaves in the same area as all the other contestants were preparing their glutenous breads, with the flour flying everywhere, and Simon pointed out to them that they were cross-contaminating their bread with gluten. He made them move away and start their bread all over again, because it wouldn't be good to serve the Hilton customers cross-contaminated gluten free bread :o:rolleyes:

Yaaay!!! Maybe a few viewers got the messsage last night.

Yay!!!

Love to see when Celiac/gluten-free info is shown correctly on TV ~ my Mom usually calls me and tells me to turn on the TV quick whenever she sees a Celiac reference :)

      From the article I linked above: DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide) Blood Tests for Celiac Disease These tests measure the levels of antibodies in the blood, but specifically targets deamidated gliadin peptides, which are a type of gluten protein that can trigger an immune response in people with celiac disease. The test is not always included in adults, but should be in cases with IgA deficiency.  I'm not sure if this is a grammatical error or not but in the context, two tests are being spoken of together so it could be intended to say, "These tests". I'll ask Scott about that.

      No they did not run a total IGA. But wouldn’t the DPG-IGA also be negative also if I was IGA deficient? They did also run a TTG-IGG and a DPG-IGG and they were also negative.

      The DGP-IGA is valuable when celiac is suspected but the person being tested is IGA deficient. Were you tested for IGA deficiency. In other words, was there a test known as "Total IGA" ordered? Here is an overview of the various blood tests that can be run when diagnosing celiac disease:

      Has anyone ever negative blood work except for the DPG-IGA? Mine was 42 (reference range negative is >20. The TTG iga was negative. I have always suffered from bad gas issues and lately have been having bouts of diarrhea and constipation. I also have a bumpy rash that comes and goes below both elbows. i have an endoscopy scheduled in May but I was just wondering if anyone else had bloodwork like this and what was the end result?

      Welcome to he forum community, @DjinnDjab! You wrote: "i just found out i may have celiac. so needless to say i no longer have friends or relationships." Are you saying that the need to eat gluten free has resulted in losing all your friends and your entire social life?
