  1. Celiac.com 07/21/2020 - Getting enough fiber while eating a gluten-free diet can be a challenge, especially for kids. Adequate fiber as part of a nutritious diet can help to prevent numerous health and digestive issues, and is important...
  2. Celiac.com 07/20/2020 - People with celiac disease can have short stature. A team of researchers recently set out to to assess the global prevalence of celiac disease in patients presenting with short stature, be means of a systematic...
  3. My concern is that in-patient facilities like hospitals and elderly care facilities are notoriously bad in dealing with the gluten-free diet. If you go this route be sure they can handle this properly for you.
  4. As long as it hasn’t been cross-contaminated during milling, pure teff flour is gluten-free. I’m not sure about its oxalate content.
  5. This may be helpful: https://www.wikihow.com/Get-Rid-of-Bed-Bugs
  6. I can’t speak for other forums, but the info in this forum, which has outstanding long-term moderators, is very good, especially with regard to celiac disease testing. I actually hear far more horror stories coming from bad doctors, for example in this recent thread a poor lady had multiple strong positive celiac blood test results a year ago, yet h...
  7. Folgers isn’t labeled “gluten-free” but on their site: https://www.folgerscoffee.com/coffees/k-cup-pods/lively-colombian-decaf-k-cup-pods it states: This product does not contain milk, peanut, egg, fish, crustacean shellfish, soy, tree nut or wheat allergens. So it is likely naturally gluten-free.
  8. Here is a list of support groups that is pretty dated:
  9. EDTA has been on our safe list for over 15 years:
  10. In Europe Codex Wheat Starch is considered safe for those with celiac disease because it contains less than 20ppm gliadin/gluten. It is not considered safe under USA labeling regulations which state that anything made using wheat as an ingredient, even if the detectable amount of gluten is zero, is not gluten-free. Our articles about Codex wheat...
  11. Celiac.com 07/18/2020 - If apple and pecan pies had a love child with cream cheese, this deliciously familiar, yet different, cheesecake would be the result. Brown sugar, apples, pecans, cream cheese and cinnamon all come together to deliver...
  12. If your diet has been 100% gluten-free it is possible that your lactose and alcohol intolerance issues may go away after a couple of years. I had several things I could not tolerate when I was diagnosed, lactose included, but after a few years I was able to eat them again without issues.
  13. I am not 100% sure how up to date this site's list is, but if you look here: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/newlist.htm Xarelto is listed as "manufacturer doesn’t knowingly add gluten however since they don’t do any final testing they won’t guarantee it to be GF but it is very unlikely that it is contaminated with gluten".
  14. I've heard that they can be tough to get rid of, but what does this have to do with celiac disease? This is a celiac disease based forum.
  15. Consuming too much sugar, like there is in Coke of other sodas, can lead to SIBO (small bowel bacterial overgrowth) as well as a host of other health issues like diabetes and obesity. That said, most are gluten-free and won’t trigger celiac disease.
  16. Peripheral nephropathy is a symptom of untreated celiac disease, as is high fecal fat content, and both can be caused by other things. It would be worth getting a blood test, and in or to do this you need to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed. There are also home test kits now available if you can't get this through your doctor presently...
  17. Hello @Cindy1955, for sponsorship info please see: https://www.celiac.com/ads/ You can personal message me directly with any questions.
  18. If the celiac blood panel was negative then you likely don't have celiac disease. It is possible you have non-celiac gluten sensitivity, but this condition generally shows elevated antibodies in testing. Certainly trying a gluten-free diet won't hurt you, just make sure you are getting proper nutrients and fiber. It might be worth a try for a few weeks...
  19. If you use the standard ingredients it does appear to be gluten-free, although each ingredient may not list "gluten-free" on its label: Pear Brandy Rose's lime juice ice cubes (or ice) Sprite (soda)
  20. Celiac.com 07/15/2020 - Celiac disease is on the rise globally. To understand the reasons for the rapid growth in celiac disease, it is important to understand how the immunoreactive triggers in gluten-containing cereals interact with...
