  2. It sounds like you’re doing an amazing job helping your daughter navigate her new gluten-free lifestyle—it can be a big adjustment, especially for little ones!

  3. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot, and I’m glad to hear you’ve already noticed improvements since going gluten-free! It’s not uncommon for people with celiac disease to feel like their body is in a prolonged recovery phase, especially if the damage from years of undiagnosed celiac was severe.

Be sure to search our articles, we've covered some of these: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication...
  5. In general if you see "gluten-free" on a label in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., it does mean that the food is safe for those with celiac disease, and it does NOT mean that there is 19ppm gluten in it, as some people might lead you to believe. Whenever a company detects gluten in the 5-19ppm (most tests can't accurately go below this level...
  6. Actually if shared equipment with a top allergen, and wheat is one of them, as a best practice it should be disclosed on the ingredient label as "made in a facility that includes wheat" or "made on shared equipment with wheat." Most large companies now disclose any possible risk with the top 8 allergens, but not all companies do this.
  7. Note to self--never go on a Celebrity cruise!😉 I can't imagine how much weight I would gain!!! Their gluten-free selection is amazing!

  9. I've been using a Brita water filter for well over a decade without any issues. I seriously doubt that these water filter companies would use glues that would end up in your water, as that would be counter to what they are trying to do, which is to purify tap water. Please provide some specific evidence to back this claim up, as such speculation can...
  10. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
  11. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...
  12. Celiac.com 11/15/2024 - For individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, finding gluten-free snacks can feel like a challenge. Luckily, gluten-free options are now more mainstream and widely available. Many popular brands offer...

  16. Your experience sounds challenging, and it’s great that you’re already seeing some improvements on a gluten-free diet. Based on your HLA gene results, the alleles you have (DQA101:02, DQA102:01, DQB102:02, DQB106:02) show a mix of gene types, some of which are associated with an increased risk of celiac disease, though none are definitive indicators on the...

  19. Many ground meats are not labelled gluten-free, but current US labeling laws do require the disclosure of wheat if it is used as an ingredient. Most ground meats are naturally gluten-free, and as you mention, it's best to find ones labeled gluten-free if possible. Many sausages, for example, are now labeled gluten-free.
  20. Does it do well for your BP control?
  21. It's great to hear that cruise lines are stepping up and offering better and more quality gluten-free options for their guests! Given the fact that on a ship you're basically trapped with whatever food options there are, it makes a lot of business sense for all cruise lines to cater to the growing gluten-free crowd.
  22. I guess using "GF" instead of "PL" would have been too easy! 😉
