    Unfortunately if you've been gluten-free for that long it would be best to restart eating gluten again daily for at least 6 weeks, then get tested, but that is only if you require a formal diagnosis to stay on a gluten-free diet. If you feel like the diet is working, and your many symptoms are improving, it is not required to get a confirmation. Also, you...

    The liquor store guy probably means well, but likely would not be the best source for info on this. Here is an article we did recently on Absolut:

    Malted rice is simply sprouted rice, which is usually roasted after it is sprouted, so it would be gluten-free.

    It sounds like you may have non-celiac gluten sensitivity, or even celiac disease. Since you are already gluten-free it probably doesn't make sense to go through a gluten challenge to get tested for celiac disease, and there currently isn't a test to screen for NCGS, which is ~10x more common than celiac disease. As a truck driver your biggest challenge will...

    I'm sorry to hear of your ordeal, and want to share this article with you, although it may be too late:

    Chocolate can have a laxative effect on some people, so perhaps you are in this group? I will assume that the chocolate in question is gluten-free.

    BTW, is there any chance the folks in charge of this operation would be open to doing this with gluten-free cookie dough, and make gluten-free cookies instead? Perhaps you could ask, as there are companies who make GF cookie dough.

    This sounds great! I wish more buffets would do this. I recently went to a belated holiday party where my wife works and was worried about the buffet offerings, and none of the workers there were able to clarify my questions. Luckily I ate something before I showed up, as this seem to happen often in catered work party environments.

    After many years here it is very rare to see someone who may be given an incorrect diagnosis of celiac disease, especially if they had positive blood tests of biopsy results, however it is much more common that a diagnosis is missed because many doctors are still not fully up on the testing protocols, and often don't even mention to their patients that they...

    I agree, and this is a general guideline. If you miss a single day it shouldn't affect your results.

    Welcome to the forum @Glutenfreegurrrl! It is possible they could have a manufacturing issue due to a contaminated ingredient, but this is also unlikely as I believe they are made in a dedicated gluten-free facility, and do regular batch testing. Do you know if you have any issues with xanthan gum or other gums which are often used in gluten-free products...

    Welcome to the forum. I think it would be very difficult for anyone to give you accurate advice on this, but given that you mention your "severe" sensitivity to cassava then it would probably make sense for you to avoid tapioca maltodextrin, even though maltodextrin tends to be heavily processed and may not affect you as much. You did not mention if this...

    I agree with @trents and even though I've not seen any scientific studies done on this, wheat flour based dough baked in a oven should not expose you to gluten. If they were making the dough from wheat flour directly in your office there may be a very small chance of exposure, but just the scent of baking cookies should not expose you, although as you mentioned...

    I'm not sure what your comment has to do with this article?

    Welcome to the forum. Did you have covid that you believe may have been a trigger? Have you been tested for celiac disease? Does anyone else in your family have issues with gluten?

    Welcome to the forum, and I think it is great that you are doing some research on how to remain gluten-free, as this is very important for your recovery. This is a link to our gluten-free recipes section: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ Feel free to ask us any questions you may have.

    Many years ago, back in the 90's, it was believed that high temperatures could degrade gluten, for example those found in deep fry vats. I do not believe a study was ever done on this concept, but it seems like it would be relatively easy to conduct such a study, and the results would be very important to many celiacs.

    I was very surprised to see this news today regarding Carol Kicinski who owns Simply Gluten Free Magazine and web site: https://www.thedailybeast.com/carol-kicinski-popular-gluten-free-tv-chef-and-poker-player-jon-heneghan-arrested-in-capitol-riot Here is the complaint: https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21273175/2-22-22-us-v-jon-heneghan...

    Given how you spelled "coeliac" it looks like you might be in the UK. Here in the USA there are several subscription magazines which have been around for many years. One of them is Simply Gluten Free. They seem to focus heavily on recipes and their associated pictures of food, and then include lots of related articles. I recommend that you get a copy of each...

    With the celiac disease biopsies, ask them if they did a "Marsh" score on them. This is the standard method of rating the damage to the villi in those with celiac disease.
  21. Scott Adams
    If they told you that you had mucosal damage consistent with celiac disease, it would be important to ask for a celiac disease blood panel. Just be sure to keep eating gluten until all tests are completed. Let us know how it turns out!

    Welcome to the forum! Please note that there is zero evidence that coffee is contaminated with gluten during roasting, blending, packaging, etc. If you have any info to back up your claim, please share it, but coffee is considered gluten-free and there is very little chance of cross contamination.

    Welcome to the forum! They sell buckwheat & brown rice Raman noodles at Costco, so no need to go without!

    For Vancouver this seems like a great deal!

    I have had joint issues in the past, mostly in my fingers, and daily flax seed and fish oil capsules make it go away.
