  1. Please feel free to share your ttg test results when you get them. Also, keep in mind that there are two conditions: 1) Celiac disease, which about 1% of people have; 2) Non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which ~10% of people have. Currently there is not test for non-celiac gluten sensitivity, so if your tests are negative, you may still want to try a gluten...
  2. Welcome to the forum! Also, a mild positive is still a positive blood test result that indicates that you may indeed have celiac disease, so keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed, as your doctor may want you to do an endoscopy to follow up this result. Hopefully you were eating gluten daily in the 6-8 weeks leading up to your tests, otherwise...
  3. Celiac.com 11/12/2021 - Is it possible for a large, multi-billion dollar, multi-national corporation like McDonald’s to make an honest mistake—even if that mistake benefits them directly by increasing their sales and bottom line? For...
  4. According to this site: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=03c696e9-0e6b-4e5c-be0a-41416f8019be it looks gluten-free and the inactive ingredients are: GELATIN (UNII: 2G86QN327L) MANNITOL (UNII: 3OWL53L36A)
  5. Also, this category contains articles that summarize recent research on liver issues and celiac disease: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/liver-disease-and-celiac-disease/ and we just published this one on Monday:
  6. Yes, technically you need to eat around 2 slices of bread per day for 6-8 weeks in order for the blood test results to be accurate. Given the one positive result it's likely a good idea to do this challenge to see what the levels are after you've been eating gluten for the proper time period.
  7. Almond butter might work too, but there are gluten-free protein powder, but high carbs are generally best for gaining weight. I think the important thing for you is what @RMJ mentioned, perhaps your diet hasn't been perfect, and you're still getting small amounts of gluten often enough that your intestines haven't healed. Look again at your diet, and if you...
  8. I go with GliadinX which is a sponsor here, and it contains AN-PEP enzymes which have been shown to break down gluten in the stomach before it reaches the intestines. This article may also be helpful:
  9. Welcome to the forum! The tissue transglutaminase test is considered the most accurate one for adults, but really, each test that was done, including the Deamidated Gliadin tests are very accurate as well. Were you eating gluten daily before the tests? Also, did your doctor schedule an endoscopy based on your positive result? This article is a bit...
  10. We have tons of bread recipes here: /celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-bread-recipes/ but this one is probably the most extensive, "scientifically tested," and healthy ones:
  11. I did not have anemia, but this is definitely one of the more common symptoms, and is one of the primary ways that people who don't know that they have celiac disease find out that they have it.
  12. I think you know that it's a bad idea, but you're not the first person on the forum who has cheated on their gluten-free diet. I hope you can bounce back from this bad day and continue on your gluten-free journey. It's not easy, but it's a lot easier now than it was 10 or 20 years ago, that is for sure. I suspect you could have had a gluten-free meal delivered...
  13. I'm not sure if you saw our recipe section here: /celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ To search recipes I just selected "Articles" and "Titles" in the search options, and see tons: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=chicken&quick=1&type=cms_records2&search_in=titles
  14. I use Fritz Gluten Free bread which is available here at Costco in 2 loaf packages. It's whole grain and tastes great.
  15. This particular symptom resolved within the first few months of going gluten-free, but came back if I got gluten in my diet by accident during the first 1-2 years of going gluten-free. I haven't had the symptom at all after my first 2 year GF time period.
  16. I definitely had heart palpitations as a symptom before I went gluten-free, and they sometimes led to panic attacks, and emergency room visits. I do believe the symptoms happened first, which led to the panic, so the heart symptoms were not psychological in nature, which is what some doctors tried to tell me. This category has summaries of studies done on...
  17. According to the source article, their new fries are gluten-free, at least until they hit the shared fryer.
  18. This article might be helpful, as many celiacs do continue to have issues, even after going gluten-free:
  19. How long ago were you diagnosed? I recall being sensitive to garlic for around 1-2 years after I went gluten-free, and after my gut healed that issue went away.
  20. Pure glutamine is an amino acid that is considered gluten-free, and safe for celiacs. Of course there could be other ingredients in there that aren't safe, as there is no regulation on the ingredients used in illegal drugs.
  21. It looks like a high positive on the one test, so it's definitely possible your child has celiac disease. They may want to run more tests, or do a biopsy, so keep them on gluten until you find out.
  22. Please search the ingredients of it here: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
  23. Gluten-free Oreos do not contain wheat as an ingredient, but do contain gluten-free oat flour. Not all celiacs can tolerate oat flour.
  24. Most catsup contains corn syrup, so that is likely what you were reacting to...not gluten.
