ARCHIVED Monoglycerides?
rat toe posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've been eating products that contains Mono and diglycerides ever since I was diagnosed (about 1 1/2 years ago) - and I have had two ets of blood work done and each set came back clean. Does anyone here know how and why mono and diglycerides can contain gluten, and do any of you eat them anyways? Just looking for a new perspective-- thanks! -
Hi--I've had celiac disease for about 1 1/2 years now and today I accidently took a bite out of a "gluten filled" scone thinking that is was a gluten free one. Once I realized it, I spat out as much as I could, but I know I still ingested some. I've had one or two mess ups before, but for some reason I got really mad at myself for this one. I'm asymptomatic...

Hi, my name is Becca I'm 17, and I've had celiac for about a year now. I didn't have any symptoms, but I'm type 1 diabetic so they screened me and caught my antibodies for celiac.

to Confused in Iowa--- The circumstances involving your son's diagnosis sound identical to mine! My doctors also beleive that if I had not had the bloodwork done I would not have found out about my celiac for years. (i've only had it for a year) I also have type 1 diabetes (for about 2 1/2 years now) and my celiac was caught completely by blood work... -

rat toe posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi, my name is Becca, and I've had celiac for about a year now. I didn't have any symptoms, but I'm type 1 diabetic so they screened me and caught my antibodies for celiac.
