  1. Maybe stick to whole wheat bread for your challenge, as it will cause less blood sugar issues than white bread.
  2. Celiac.com 08/26/2024 - The study "Gluten is a Proinflammatory Inducer of Autoimmunity" explores the significant and diverse ways in which gluten, a protein found in many grains, affects human health. Although gluten is well-known for...
  3. Although dogs and cats evolved from a common ancestor about 42 million years ago, I don't think that they are very closely related nowadays, although both are naturally carnivores.
  4. Are you certain that his diet is 100% gluten-free? This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
  5. You should definitely talk to your doctor about your high blood sugar issue, as that can be far more serious than celiac disease symptoms.
  6. Celiac.com 08/23/2024 - Moroccan Chicken Tagine is a celebration of North African flavors and culinary traditions, showcasing the rich heritage of Morocco’s diverse cuisine. Named after the distinctive earthenware pot in which it is t...
  7. If you have been diagnosed already with celiac disease, then you would not need to eat gluten again, especially if you are trying to get screened for cancer. Cancer screening would not include a gluten challenge, only testing for celiac disease would require this. While an endoscopy is used to diagnose celiac disease, and a doctor might also see an issue...
  8. In general all ingredients are listed on the bottles of aspirin that I've see, and one needs to look at the inactive ingredients for any gluten or corn derivatives, although I've not seen any gluten in those I've looked at within the USA. Corn may be harder to avoid though.
  9. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
  10. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
  11. Yes, there is no way that 4 capsules could handle breaking down that much gluten.
  12. First off, you are hijacking the comments for this article, as the article has nothing to do with either McDonald's French fries, or hydrolyzed wheat, and McDonald's does not claim that they are gluten-free, nor do they recommend them for celiacs. It's a personal choice whether or not celiacs decide to include them in their diets. Also, Celiac.com is...
  13. I have you two sources--Celiac.com and The Gluten Intolerance Group, so you are incorrect that there "isnt a single source online recommending to eat McDonald Fries." You are thinking of Burger King, as McDonald's hasn't changed their fry recipe the way that you falsely describe in your post. McDonald's has made changes to their French fry recipe in...
  14. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
  15. PS - You might want to look at this post, as gluten detecting service dogs apparently have warned their owners to avoid Trader Joe's gluten-free bagels:
  16. We've done some articles on this: @Rachwertz than you for sharing this! Has your dog ever detected gluten in McDonald's French Fries?
  17. Hydrolyzed wheat in McDonald's French fries does not mean they are not gluten-free because the hydrolysis process breaks down gluten proteins into smaller fragments, reducing them to a level that is typically below the FDA's threshold of 20 ppm for gluten-free labeling. More info: https://www.fda.gov/about-fda/economic-impact-analyses-fda-regulations/food...
  18. Celiac.com 08/21/2024 - Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, leads to damage in the small intestine. The condition is marked by an immune response that targets...
  19. The test means that it's unlikely that you have celiac disease, but normally a full panel is done that includes a couple of other tests, and it is too bad those were not done. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet i...
  20. It says that is is gluten-free on their site, so it should be safe for celiacs: https://www.violife.com/en-us/products/dairy-free-cheese-blocks/just-like-feta
  21. It appears to be naturally gluten-free, and I don't believe wheat could get into it where it is processed, but perhaps give them a call to see if they can give you more info? https://www.springhillfarmvt.com/products/6-75oz-maple-syrup-flask-amber Also, did you eat anything else that might have been contaminated?
  22. Let us know how it goes, and what other clear liquids you found. Besides water with lemon juice I'm not sure there is much to add.
  23. Increasing the fat content in meals can help individuals with celiac disease feel less hungry by providing longer-lasting satiety, since fats digest more slowly than carbohydrates and proteins. Fats take longer to digest compared to carbohydrates and proteins, which helps in maintaining a feeling of fullness for a longer period. Fats play a crucial...
  24. Welcome to the forum. Can you provide the reference range for your tTg test? Each lab has a different range so knowing more would be helpful. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the...
  25. It is definitely safe to take GliadinX, the real question you seem to have is, does it actually work? I can only say that it has worked for me and my family that have celiac disease and/or DH, and we've been taking them before we eat out now for years. Before we took them I would estimate that we had issues with probable cross-contamination ~25-33% of the...
