Delfi Forum Gf Pro. List

Hello People:

Does anyone know if there is a printed/published Delfi gluten-free Product List (other that what can be printed off the computer).?

I have several friends and family members who would like a copy. There must be something in a booklet/book form that you can carry around with you.

Any published list out there that can be purchased/ordered.

Thanks. Lisa B

Hi Lisa!

Because of the fluctuating nature of the gluten free status of items, it really isn't recommended or worthwhile to publish a gluten free list that basically will be unreliable by the next month. What is gluten free this month may not be gluten free next month.

The delphi list is the best resource for up to date and current/correct information of current gluten-free status of products. The reason it is the best resource is because it is constantly being updated, corrected and checked by lots of dedicated gluten free people who volunteer their time to keep this list current for us.

One example of the change in status is a brand of clam juice that I finally found out was gluten free. I contact the company to ask if it was gluten free, their response was that yes, indeed, it is gluten free, but unfortunately, next month they are changing the formula and it will no longer be gluten free.

That is the nature of the gluten free world. It makes our life much more difficult and that's because we must be forever vigilant.

Hugs.

Canadian Karen,

Is the Delphi list applicable to Canadians? I guess I sort of figured it was only for goods manufactured/sold in the U.S.

Canadian Karen Community Regular

Quite often the list will differentiate between U.S. and Canada.

e.g. it will say (but not gluten-free in Canada). An example would be Smarties.....

Here is an excerpt in the candy section that gives a good example:

M&M's (800.551.0702) (vp=09/24/02)

The following are gluten-free: Snickers (except mini's in Canada); Skittles; Starburst; Dove (milk & dark choc); Mars Almond Bar; 3Musketeers; MilkyWay Midnight (all other MilkyWay's are not gluten-free). All mini versions of the above are gluten-free except Snickers in Canada)

Here is the Smarties excerpt:

Smarties (USA ONLY) (Ce De Candy) (908-964-0660) (vp=10/15/2003)

Please note, these are the Smarties in the USA ONLY. Canadian Smarties are NOT gluten-free.

No the Dephi List is a 79 page long list of products and foods gluten free status. It is not complete but quite in depth and a very good resource to have. Someone can email it to you or celiac3270 posted about it in the product section a while ago and he gave directions on how to get it yourself in there.

If you want a touchable printed list call the Celiac Sprue Association and they have a list, not as detailed as the Delfi Forum Product List, but it may help you get started.

They have a toll free # 1-877-272-4272

They will also offer you many web sites that will give you SO much valuable information regarding celiac disease. ( as small fee is required, but worth it and you may also join the association and receive newsletters and updated on celiac disease research)

Good luck and keep us posted about our progress.

Thanks Karen. I too thought the delphi list was only for Americans. I downloaded the list which I think will be very useful.

I bought the Triumph Grocery Guide. It was kind of hard to use--it really needs an index. It's okay for beginners, but there were a lot of products that weren't in my area.

I just found it easier in the beginning to go the whole foods, plain route and then when I started to add foods back in like Chinese, then I just googled everything and used this forum a lot--still do.

Once you know what you can/cannot eat by reading the labels, then life become so much easier.

And for the inlaws when they occasionally have my kids for overnighters, I tell them that wheat will be listed, but to particularly look for barley or malt--which isn't usually a problem for what they have at their house. And if they're in doubt, call me or ask the kids--they're the ones with iphone gluten free app. :P

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
