Is There A List Online Of Basic Gluten-Containing Ingredients?

I have been trying to make my own. And have scoured the internet for hours.

It would really help to have a list I can laminate and bring with me to the grocery store, or keep in the car. That way if I need a snack or want to buy something new, I can scan the list and the ingredients on the product label.

I know things can be cross contacted....but just a general list for me would be a great start to all of this (newbie).

Anyone have any good links of what to watch out for?

Try these links for useful information:

Unsafe ingredients.

Safe ingredients.

Open Original Shared Link If you don't see "wheat, rye, barley, barley malt, oats" on the labels, its not there, or hidden in "flavors, starches, etc."

Thank you so much for this!

This is a great help and good place for me to start.

Felt overwhelmed at first by it all.

I have been diagnosed with gluten intolerance a week ago. I found an app for the IPhone called UPC scanner. You can personalize your preferences for different ingredients or allergens, scan the barcode, and it let's you know if the item has those ingredients and highlights the 'bad' ingredients. I found it extremely useful the first time I went grocery shopping and I used it to go through the items in my kitchen too. If it doesn't have the item on file (I found that it has majority of the items I scanned excluding store brands) you can upload a pic of the ingredients and they will add it to their file.

Hope this helps you!

when I first went gluten free I bought a book that is a shoppers guide for the store. It lists food that is safe, it tells you what brands and such. That maybe helpful as well. I got it from the gluten free mall.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
