  1. Celiac.com 08/12/2021 - Even with a clear declaration by the FDA that all distilled alcohol is gluten-free, we still get a lot of questions about alcohol, and cocktails. Specifically, we get a lot of questions about various kinds of rum...
  2. This article has info on the various risk levels associated with the different genotypes: It's kind of hard to tell from your results, but it appears that you are positive for the DQ2 and if so have a ~2.9% chance of developing celiac disease. I would ask the lab who did this to explain this in more detail, as it's not clear.
  3. On your profile please see the "Archives" tab: https://www.celiac.com/profile/24026-kurzemiete/?tab=node_dp44archivecontentprofile_dp44ArchiveContent
  4. This seems to vary a lot from person to person. Many people who've been gluten-free for years have few symptoms when they get accidental cross-contamination, while others get extreme reactions that last for days or even longer. I don't think you will find that there is one good answer to this question.
  5. Hillshire Farm brand is gluten-free by ingredients: https://www.hillshirefarm.com/products/smoked-sausage/polska-kielbasa/
  6. Many people have dust allergies, but dust will cause nearly anyone to sneeze, so it could just be the dust particles that are irritating your nose and throat. Hopefully with your new gluten-free diet you will see your symptoms continue to improve. Before going gluten-free I had severe pollen allergies and my nose was constantly clogged. After about a year...
  7.

  8. Keep in mind that negative for celiac disease does not exclude non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which ~12% of people have. So she still may be gluten sensitive. Unfortunately there is currently no test for NCGS.
  9. I've tried to find out more info about Nima. Why they would be purchased and then shut down is a big mystery. I've go no further info, and will soon also run out of test capsules.
  10. Welcome to the forum! So the difficult thing about gluten sensitivity is that there are two main types: 1) celiac disease, which ~1% of the population has, and you can test for it, usually with a TTG blood test; and 2) non-celiac gluten sensitivity, which is the tricky one, because there is no current test for it, and possibly ~12% of the population...
  11. The important thing is that you have an answer now, and can get him on the road to good health. Don't beat yourself up about it!
  12. Here are two articles we've done on Claritin:
  13. We revised this article today, however, since it is still made in a kitchen that makes regular pizzas, and is cooked in ovens with regular pizzas, we left this as not safe for celiacs.
  14. It's not on nearly every store shelf in the USA for nothing...yes, it's probably the most popular cheesecake mix in the USA.
  15. 08/10/2021 - The human thiamine transporter-2 (hTHTR-2) plays a key role in the intestinal absorption of thiamine (vitamin B1). Recent studies with membrane transporters of other nutrients/substrates have shown that associated proteins...
  16. Celiac.com 08/09/2021 - Improving the quality of shelf stable gluten-free bread is an ongoing mission, and psyillium husk powder has shown some early promise. A team of researchers recently set out to assess the ability of psyllium husk...
  17. We’ll, I am currently in Humboldt County, CA, so it could have been a Freudian slip! 🙂
  18. it sounds like your wife should be screened for celiac disease, is it possible for you to ask your doctor about that? I will assume that she is not gluten-free yet, but if she is note that she needs to keep eating gluten daily for at least 6 to 8 weeks before being screened for celiac disease.
  19. I also just wanted to mention that oats can be cross contaminated with wheat unless you buy certified gluten-free oats. and some celiacs react to oats in a similar way as they do gluten. I believe it’s some thing around 9% of celiac’s have an out intolerance.
  20. I will have to double check this. I think the we were being cautious because of potential cross-contamination. Do you know if they use separate ovens to cook the GF pizzas?
