    As the article mentions, autolyzed yeast extract could contain trace amount of gluten if it is made from barley, however, since the Ore Ida product was labelled gluten-free I doubt this would be the case.

    They said they batch test every single batch...why isn't that credible? I can only assume they are looking forward to a certification at some point, which is likely whey they are going to the trouble of batch testing.
  3. Scott Adams
    Perhaps you are sensitive to another ingredient, for example MSG? Autolyzed yeast is typically a form of MSG, and is usually gluten-free. In this case it would be gluten-free since they have "gluten-free" on the label.

    It might be safer to change, however, normally skin contact with gluten won't affect most celiacs, but may affect those with DH or those who are super sensitive.

    Has your brother been tested for celiac disease, as up to 44% of 1st degree relatives also have it?

    This is always a tough question, and there is no easy answer. On one hand you don't want those who are not on gluten-free diets to be forced to also make huge lifestyle changes, but on the other hand you also don't want to get sick. I happen to co-exist in a mixed gluten/gluten-free household, and the only way I'm able to do this is because my wife has excellent...

    Thank you @Katerific, and this is what I've heard in past posts in our forum. As far as I know there are no regulations that require nursing homes to cater to special diets, but there should be.

    The company itself is testing for gluten in "every single batch of finished product," which is exactly what certified gluten-free companies must do. Your claim that this products isn't gluten-free must be supported by evidence, not conjecture or plain assumptions.

    This is interesting, and I've heard about toilet technology mentioned in the article that is designed to diagnose cancer and other health issues early.

    If you are super sensitive this doesn't sound safe enough to me. Have you contacted Bob's Red Mill, as they offer gluten-free buckwheat?

    It's good to see ongoing research still being done on gluten-free bread, as some things still have a ways to go. I've never had a great gluten-free croissant, but am still hoping!

    I don't have a specific test to recommend, but this article includes the most common deficiencies, so perhaps ask your doctor to test for those:

    Others have reported this symptom: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=lymph nodes&quick=1 be sure to discuss it with your doctor, and high dose thiamine may help:

    It's better a late diagnosis than to never have one, so now you can go gluten-free, and hopefully stay that way. Due to the fact that your mother has it as well put you at a high risk for it, and here is an article we published on this: Also, this may also be helpful:

    If you go gluten-free and get relief from your symptoms, then you likely have your answer. If they do schedule an endoscopy due to a positive blood test then you could start eating gluten again 2 weeks before that test, but it's also possible that you may have found your answer after going gluten-free, and you may not decide to do an endoscopy.
  18. Scott Adams
    From what I've heard nursing facilities are pretty bad at providing gluten-free food to those who need it.
  19. Scott Adams
    No time wasted, and keep in mind that there is a condition called non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which ~10x more people have than celiac disease, yet there is no test for this yet. You could still have this, and if so, would need to go gluten-free. So you may want to try a gluten-free diet for a few months to see if it helps with your symptoms.
  20. Scott Adams
    So how is that relevant to this article? Perhaps post a new thread in our forum on your Silk experience?
  21. Scott Adams
    I’ve always been skeptical of widespread PPI use and making the available without a prescription. they may relieve some symptoms in many cases, but in the long term for, for most people anyway, they will cause more problems than they might solve.
  22. Scott Adams
    That makes more sense...yes, the tTg result looks fine. The IGA is done just to check if you are IGA deficient, and you are not.

    This butter substitute does not have gluten ingredients, and is olive oil based: https://www.safeway.com/shop/product-details.960011930.html

    I also had H Pylori at the time of my diagnosis, and it was likely caused by the severe gut damage that I had at that time, although it's not exactly clear which came first, the H Pylori or celiac disease.
  25. Scott Adams
    Yes and no...those without any issues with gluten would likely not score 2.8, so there is still some evidence that your body is mounting an autoimmune response to gluten, but it may not be strong enough at this point to call it celiac disease. Also, were you eating at least 2 slices of wheat bread per day for 6-8 weeks before this test? If not, this...
