Today I had a Reese's and I had heard they were gluten free. About an hour after I had extreme d and got really tired. Now I've had a belly ache all day :angry: Has anyone else had this from Reese's? :(

I think several people have had problems.

They say they are safe except the seasonal and shaped. I assume shared lines? Open Original Shared Link

It may just be too processed a food - especially if you're at the beginning of gluten-free. I like them but I don't eat them now. Just too much "junk" in them for me to process. I may be ok with one bit no more than that.

I am pretty sensitive and I have never had an issue with them. I usually get the regular size and haven't had the 'seasonal' ones. If your new to a diet be aware that it isn't always gluten and even if it is it isn't always the last thing you ate as reactions can be delayed by up to as much as a few days.

I eat them regularly and haven't had any problems. I have had a few seasonal ones but always check the label first.

I eat them all the time and I have no problems...it helps feed my love addition with chocolate and peanut butter! The only junk food better is pb m&ms!

I've only been completely gluten free for a few months now so maybe it was too much for y stomach to handle. Although I do fine with ice cream and stuff but maybe because buyers only has normal ingredients. I'm gonna have to be careful

I have no celiac disease issues with them, but the sugar in the chocolate forces me to limit consumtion. I eat them as a treat from time to time.

It's really weird what can set you off....

I pigged out on gluten-free Halloween candy last year. Was great, til it wasn't.

You'll find your crutch and addiction. Mine was Talenti gelato. OMG. I should buy stock....

Was it a special holiday edition shape? They do add gluten to different shapes for the holidays. I bought 3 bags of holiday bells about 3 years ago. :o

ALWAYS READ THE LABEL!

I'm not sure what's different with the holiday shaped ones but nothing is different with the holiday ones in pretty wrappers. They're just the same old thing from the same old plant with prettier foil. I was very bad this year and couldn't resist temptation when I saw on clearance after Easter one of the giant eggs for a buck. They're usually like $4 and I just couldn't help myself. I'm lucky it didn't make me sick, especially since I ate it in all over the span of about 24 hours! :blink: So far though I haven't gotten sick from any Reese's, they're my only chocolate indulgence that isn't fancy pants important stuff.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley...

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
