  1. The pasta sauce is gluten-free: https://www.prego.com/sauces/classic-italian-pasta-sauces/garden-harvest-tomato-onion-garlic-italian-sauce/ browse their site for more info.
  2. Does it look like a rash from an allergy, live hives? Could it be caused by friction? I've not heard of gluten being used in cardboard, but I suppose its possible. I know that it has apparently been used in some dry wall.
  3. I doubt that there would be any gluten on the tabs, and even if there were the amount would be so small it likely would not cause issues. That said, obviously not doing it would be the safest choice and what I recommend, whether or not there is any gluten on the tabs. If you're dead set on trying this, and it sounds like you are, be sure you're with...
  4. A Nima sensor is accurate and would be far less expensive than owning and taking care of a gluten sniffing dog.
  5. If you're going to eat out I advise getting an AN-PEP enzyme and taking 1-2 with the meal. Here is a new article we just published on this topic:
  6. They actually had an incident and product recall because of a mixed up box car that added wheat to a batch. Unfortunately this happened at the same time they were rolling out their new gluten-free line. It was a major snafu, but it doesn't speak at all to the current safety level of their products. They did correctly handle the recall.
  7. It has been shown that a certain percentage of people have an intolerance to oats. It’s more likely that you are in this category than it is that Cheerios contain gluten to a level that would cause you issues. “But some boxes to get hot spots with more and go untested as they only test batches.” Although this claim has been made by different peopl...
  8. I am not sure what you mean by having it in the "grain category" but please let me know. Smirnoff, like any distilled alcoholic beverages, is gluten-free.
  9. Here is our list: and our forbidden list:
  10. Just to clarify, the ppm is not measured per serving. Under 20 ppm does not have anything to do with serving size. At that tiny level a vast majority of celiacs will have no symptoms, even if they at more servings. Yes, if you eat 10 servings you will get more gluten if something was at 10 ppm than if you ate only 5 servings, however, you would also get a...
  11. Yes, I felt like I was in a moving elevator when I wasn’t.
  12. IF one bag had 10ppm gluten then your overall exposure would be only 10ppm, even if you ate the whole bag...it is not measured per serving then multiplied.
  13. If they are 100% gluten-free it can take anywhere for a few weeks to a few months for their tests to normalize. I would just add that the lower the number are to begin with, the faster it will likely occur, and the higher the numbers, the longer it could take.
  14. Many people need a formal diagnosis to help justify the difficulty of staying on a 100% gluten-free diet for life. Also, they will be able to more easily get follow up care such as blood tests and biopsies. However, for many who can stay gluten-free without the piece of paper that says "celiac disease," there are other considerations, for example private...
  15. Celiac.com 02/25/2020 - Sierra Soups of Fresno, Ca is recalling its 13 ounce packages of "Pasta e Fagioli" because the soup mix contains an individually wrapped package of pasta, which contains gluten. However outer packaging states the product is Gluten Free. People who have allergies to gluten run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction...
  16. The Youth Clinic offers free screenings to detect childhood diabetes and celiac disease to all children in the community ages 1 to 17 years old. The next screening is scheduled 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Feb. 28 at the clinic’s Timnath office, ...
  17. Vertigo is a very common symptom of gluten sensitivity, and I had this as well as brain fog. You might find this article interesting:
  18. Beano is gluten-free: https://www.beanogas.com/faqs/
  19. You may also want to share this with your doctor: https://www.news-medical.net/news/20200207/New-guidelines-recommend-no-biopsy-approach-for-childhood-celiac-disease-diagnosis.aspx
  20. Comments on articles aren't the best way to get answers here...I recommend posting in out forum: https://www.celiac.com/forums/
  21. Be sure to talk to your doctor about your symptoms.
  22. In some people gluten sensitivity manifests itself primarily as a nerve disease affecting the brain and the nervous system. The good news is if you are in this category and you stay one hundred percent gluten-free, the symptoms should go away over time. Here are some articles that you might find helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp...
  23. The latest research indicates that children should be diagnosed using only blood tests and not via biopsy: https://www.news-medical.net/news/20200207/New-guidelines-recommend-no-biopsy-approach-for-childhood-celiac-disease-diagnosis.aspx I believe this will eventually be the way all celiacs are diagnosed, given all the issues that can arise using biopsies...
