Is corn meal generally safe? What brand does everyone use. I haven't bought any for about 7 months and I am really missing it.

I get my corn meal & grits & masa harina from nuts.com. They have a good certified gluten-free selection of foods. Shipping is pricey, but fast.

You'd think so but many are not. Read the label on a lot of "name brand" corn meal and it will not be safe (wheat). I have found that store brands often are just fine. So that's what I buy.

Thanks everyone.

I bought a store brand and it seems to be fine.

I'll have to check out Nuts.com more. I see they deliver to Canada now.

Wait until you see all the certified gluten-free goodies they have :)

They took it seriously when someone they know was DXed.

Hubs loves their medjool dates! Delicious diced dried fruits for granola bars. They also have veggies chips and gogi power bars.

The nuts are so jumbo and fresh! For a real treat, chocolate covered raisins.(they also have candies--like M&Ms, nonpareils and those chewy things, gummies?) The teff and coconut flours are ground fine for baking and are in resealable bags. The selection is huge. Okay, I'll stop now.....Obviously, I like their products! and they always include a "free treat". Customer service is top-notch. okay, really done now.

(but I am not a paid spokesperson, honest. :lol: if only! )

No prob! You got it, sister. ;) Before DX, that was my signature dessert.

Give me a few hours to make dinner and come back and type it all out?

The main key to cornmeal is that the self rising kind will always have wheat flour. Look for pure corn meal... Martha White has a good one.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
