  1. 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.
  2. 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...
  3. 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!
  4. Here are two articles we've done on Claritin:
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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...
  8. 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...
  9. We’ll, I am currently in Humboldt County, CA, so it could have been a Freudian slip! 🙂
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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?
  13. Celiac.com 08/06/2021 - Fresh, cool cucumber, tomato, onion and mint dance with olive oil and vinegar to deliver this delicious, refreshing salad that's perfect for staying cool in hot weather. Ingredients: 4-6 Persian cucumbers ...
  14. Celiac.com 08/05/2021 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain brands and products are gluten-free. One question we see a lot is about Jello brand products. Lately, we've seen a lot of questions about...
  15. Please note that the 20ppm threshold isn't a goal. These companies are not aiming to keep their products at this level, or fortifying them if they fall below it. This is simply a threshold that defines what it means to be gluten-free and use that term on the packaging. If a company detects 15 ppm, in general, they are scrambling to find out why so they don...
  16. Welcome to the forum Hans! It's unfortunate that your doctor does not seem to be very supportive of your DH idea. Do you think there is any chance that they would order a celiac disease blood panel, and/or refer you to a dermatologist to do a biopsy on the blisters to determine if it is DH? If not, then perhaps the next choice would be having her...
  17. Celiac.com 08/04/2021 - Dietary restriction of fermentable carbohydrates (a low-FODMAP diet) is getting a good deal of attention as a potential method for reducing symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), particularly...
  18. Welcome to the forum. I also wonder, were you gluten-free when you took the York test? What were the results? You do need to eat gluten daily until the celiac disease tests are completed.
  19. In reality drinking Gatorade probably isn't much more healthy than drinking a Coke with some salt and few minerals thrown into it. I'm not sure anyone should drink it, but since so many people do we wanted to at least answer the questions we get about whether or not it's gluten-free. If you have almost any digestive issue the first step is to cut out sugar...
