  1. Thanks for sharing...I noticed that Dr. Ford's websites are no longer functioning. I believe he retired a while back, but I haven't heard from him in a long time. He used to regularly contribute articles to Celiac.com: https://www.celiac.com/profile/81265-dr-rodney-ford-md/
  2. Although many people with celiac disease do avoid products that are made in the same facility, there are also many who do consume them. If the item has "gluten-free" on the label it is likely that they take precautions to avoid cross-contamination with wheat, and it is gluten-free, but you would need to contact the manufacturer directly to see what steps...
  3. Yes, you can substitute arrowroot powder for potato starch, but keep in mind that the texture and moisture level of your bread might change slightly. Arrowroot is lighter and can sometimes result in a softer crumb, while potato starch tends to give a denser, slightly more moist texture. Since you’re using a bread maker, it’s a good idea to monitor the dou...
  4. Can you get food delivered from Amazon or other online service? You would likely know better than us regarding what might be available near you, but mail ordering ingredients and baking yourself might be an option. https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/
  5. I agree with @trents and wheat is wheat, and celiacs can't eat wheat pasta in other countries, including Italy.
  6. According to the Gluten Intolerance Group their French fries are gluten-free, even though they contain trace amounts of hydrolyzed wheat in their beef flavoring--but just make sure they are using a dedicated fryer for their fries:
  7. We've done some articles that might be helpful, but cross-contamination may be an issue at any restaurant, including McDonald's: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=mcdonald's&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&search_in=titles&sortby=relevancy
  8. The articles are still fairly recent, but as the articles mention, be sure to check the label carefully before buying any foods, including hams.
  9. The best overall deals I've found for specialty gluten-free products like prepared sliced bread, frozen pizzas, etc., is Costco. We don't have Kroger near where I live so I can't speak for their prices.
  10. These articles might be helpful:
  11. I received this reply from John Fagan, Ph.D. or Health Research Institute regarding the Romer G12 ELISA tests that were run by his lab for the MMA study, and it includes his response to the Gluten-Free Watchdog article. His reply makes me even more suspicious about the article Gluten-Free Watchdog, as he even offered to send them a sample from the same batch...
  12. Celiac.com 08/06/2024 - In 2018, Novak Djokovic, a world-renowned tennis player, made headlines not only for his athletic prowess but also for his strict gluten-free diet. Djokovic credits this dietary change for significantly improving...
  13. This is fresh chicken breast so I don't think so, but who knows?
  14. @JacquiR You may know more about this than most, as we're no experts here on how to be gluten-free withing the correctional system, which must vary greatly from state to state, county to county, and even city to city. This article is just a summary of a news report where another prisoner had your issue.
  15. Their website says that it is gluten-free: https://www.barleans.com/products/seriously-delicious-omega-3-fish-oil-mango-peach-smoothie
  16. Celiac.com 08/05/2024 - Psoriasis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by its autoimmune etiology. Affecting both men and women equally, this disease is often associated with other autoimmune disorders, increasing...
  17. Celiac.com 08/03/2024 - Pico de Gallo, a vibrant and refreshing salsa, traces its origins to the rich culinary tapestry of Mexico. Known for its bright flavors and crisp textures, this traditional dish has deep roots in Mexican street...
  18. Actually with food poisoning from a pathogen not everyone gets sick. An example of this would be my daughter who just went to Mexico with her best friend--her best friend got travelers dysentery and needed antibiotics, while my daughter had zero issues. They ate and drank the same things throughout their trip. I still think this is possible, and gluten in...
  19. I think this brand has been mentioned here by others: https://lifesabundance.com/category/products/people/probiotic.aspx Here is an article that shows positive GI effects in celiacs from probiotic use:
  20. Welcome to the forum! I’m sorry to hear about your challenges. It’s great that you’re seeking support. Even if you’re asymptomatic, it’s crucial to strictly avoid gluten to prevent further damage to your intestines and related health issues. All individuals with celiac disease, regardless of sensitivity level, need to be vigilant. Certified gluten-fr...
  21. Good job on your ongoing recovery @linko! It looks like your antibodies are dropping normally. The slight uptick on your most recent test could indicate that your diet isn't 100% gluten-free (if you eat outside your home, especially in restaurants, this could be the culprit). In no expert on high Immunoglobulin A, but your doctors should be able to tell you...
  22. Good point @Alwiene, and I've updated the article I shared to include oxalate sensitivity, which we've done some articles on here: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=oxalate&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&search_in=titles&sortby=relevancy I also added Lectins, and here are the articles we've done: https:...
  23. 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 and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...
  24. I am also not terribly surprised by the results of the MMA study, given the number of recalls I see on gluten-free products, even ones that are certified gluten-free: This is even less surprising to me now that I understand the step down testing granted to companies that have GFCO certification, which I don't agree with regardless of what comes about...
  25. I agree with @trents, and 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...
