    I'm not sure how long you've been 100% gluten-free, but to me it sounds like you could have possible undiagnosed celiac disease and/or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Many people with either condition have additional food intolerances which may go away after 1-3 years on a strict gluten-free diet. In the case of celiac disease, those additional intolerances...

    Welcome to the forum! I'm sure that others will chime in here, but the articles below might be helpful. Being vegetarian will create additional challenges for you, but many forum members have made the switch to a gluten-free diet, so it's definitely doable.

    Often what are described as "cross-reactors" are common food intolerances that newly diagnosed people with celiac disease have because of their leaky gut state. Many of these may go away after being on a strict gluten-free diet for a couple of years, and which will normally allow the gut to heal. In my case I was able to add back 90% of my "cross reactors...

    Welcome to the forum! You're not alone, and others here have reported issues with tapioca as well, and here is a search of the forum for this topic: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q="tapioca"&type=forums_topic&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy Can I ask how long you've been gluten-free, and has your diet been 100% gluten...

    It's possible that these are made in different countries, and the info you see on the internet may not apply to the ones at the Dollar Store. The info on the package should be the most accurate, and it sounds like they are made in a shared facility that also processes wheat, and they may even use shared equipment. There are similar wheat products, so...

    Technically yes, but if you are having issues don't eat it. We did test one pizza crust with a Nima sensor that indicated that it contained gluten above the 20ppm level. You may want to read these two articles and their comments:

    Restaurants can change owners, recipes, etc., without notice, so it's always important to call ahead or ask these questions before ordering. We'll update this list if we find out any info is incorrect, or has changes. Please let us know which restaurant you called.

    I've not heard of a high protein, and specifically an Atkins or Paleo Diet, causing any issues in people with celiac disease. On the contrary, many people who have switched over to those diets after going gluten-free have claimed that it has helped them finally get relief from their ongoing symptoms (specifically cutting out all grains, bad carbs, sugar,...

    So it looks like you don't have low IGA, so that means those tests would be accurate had you been eating the recommended amount of gluten for 6-8 weeks leading up to the test, which you said that you did not do. Not eating gluten, or eating little gluten before the tests could cause false negative results.
  12. Scott Adams
    This is an old thread, but in general someone with celiac disease should use a dedicated gluten-free sponge, and never use a shared sponge that has come into contact with gluten.

    Welcome to the forum! Is there a chance they did a test for Immunoglobulin A (IgA)? I ask because if you are deficient for this test it will lower scores on certain tests, and the normal celiac blood test protocol is described in this article: So it is possible to have a negative blood test (especially if you have low Immunoglobulin A - IgA), and a...

    That is one method that should work for you, however, I still recommend, at the very least, always looking at the ingredient labels and allergen warnings, as ingredients and suppliers could change at any time. I became an ingredient "expert" years go by maintaining these lists, but if you are in the USA look for "gluten-free," or better yet, "certified gluten...

    Although these articles are older, they are interesting and discuss lung issues and celiac disease:

    Unless it is cross-contaminated millet is safe for those with celiac disease, but it is possible for anyone to have additional food intolerances or food allergies to other foods/grains.
  18. Scott Adams
    Good call, did they do a total IGA as part of the celiac blood panel? This is considered standard, because some people have low IGA which can skew the tTG results. If you do have naturally low IGA they can do other tests for celiac disease, however, to me it sounds like you already know that gluten is the cause of your issues, which means you have gluten...

    I also want to mention that one medium coconut has about 36g of dietary fiber, which is a lot, so the bloating could also be due to having so much fiber. If you do eat processed coconut, as @trents mentioned, be sure it is not contaminated and is gluten-free, and even then, perhaps eat less of it due to its high fiber content.

    Produce Packaging, Inc. of Willoughby Hills, OH is voluntarily recalling its Red Curry Grain Bowl and Barcelona Vinaigrette Grain Bowl. These are being recalled because they contain an undeclared allergen (wheat), that was not listed on the product label. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to wheat run the risk of a serious or life-threatening...

    Soy is technically gluten-free, but is a common allergen, as are corn and cow's milk. Perhaps keep a food diary and eliminate the main allergens one at a time, then add them back after a couple of weeks to see if you can find a connation to the face rash?
  24. Scott Adams
    I think those would be definite signs of healing, and this was much like what happened in my case as well.

    Both myself and my daughter have been taking GliadinX for years now (full disclosure they are a sponsor of this site), and both of us stopped having issues that we otherwise would have from time to time after eating at restaurants. We eat out 1-2 times a week, and over the course of a month one or both of us would encounter cross-contamination and usually...
