Why Bananas No Longer Cure Celiac Disease
kareng commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Origins of Celiac Disease
No bananas do not contain gluten . There are no “proteins linked to Celiac” in a banana. -
Yes. A clean microwave is safe. Get this alcohol stuff out of your head. ? Can you wash the dishes well? I have found white vinegar loosens flour residue. Do they go in the dishwasher? It’s not like the gluten is growing, so if you can get them clean, you can use them. People worry that little cracks will be hard to clean. But the fact is, ...

Gluten doesn’t die. You just need to clean it off. A microwave is only an issue if there is food on the “ ceiling” that can fall in your food.

Diamond Foods/emerald Nuts
kareng replied to ciavyn's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The same plant means nothing. Same machinery might be an issue. But if they are “ certified” they have tested them and they test gluten-free -
Catholic gluten free host
kareng replied to Deekite1941's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The best thing to do is call your church office and ask. Find out what one they use and the procedure. Then you can check on the host they buy. There are some that have basically no gluten. Or you can see if you can get the blessed wine set aside for you. -
So disgusted! (With myself and Celiac)
kareng replied to SabineHP's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Rumor has it there are some very promising treatments coming up soon. Unfortunately, it will take years to work it’s way thru the US drug testing/ verification process. And of of course it depends on why you have dementia. -
Looks like it’s meant for pain that can’t really be treated. Not sure it would hurt anyone but right now it’s being tested for HIV patients ( according to your article). Would be great if it reduced the amount of pain meds. Not sure why you have pain .... I hope it has been diagnosed because treated Celiac should not cause pain everyday

Canyon Bakehouse bread and xanthan gum
kareng replied to JaneWhoLovesRain's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
When I spoke to the owner a few years back, she told me people are not allowed to bring thier lunches into the facility. Here is a link to their gluten-free info https://canyonglutenfree.com/uploads/Canyon-Bakehouse-Mission-&-Values.pdf -
Canyon Bakehouse bread and xanthan gum
kareng replied to JaneWhoLovesRain's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
This is a completely gluten-free company with completely gluten-free facilities. they test the bread for gluten. I wonder if your "rash" is from something else? Perhaps another ingredient or other things you are eating with this bread? Wanted to add that the founder has Celiac. -
Fasano Elimination Diet and Juices/Beverages
kareng replied to Alaskaguy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
It is meant to be restrictive - so you don’t run any risk of cc with gluten. That really is the fundamental basis. It isn’t meant to be fun or interesting. It is meant for people who are very sick and the normal gluten-free diet isnt working. It is a last step before medications. It is not a lifestyle or a life long diet. So, for those who really nee... -
Fasano Elimination Diet and Juices/Beverages
kareng replied to Alaskaguy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The point of the diet is not to give someone lots of choices. The point is to severely limit the foods for a short period of time to be absolutely certain no gluten can sneak in. So the fact that some herbal teas are made with barley might be why they don't want to even chance that. I would guess that the OJ you described would probably be... -
All the info in this thread is several years old. Might want to check with the manufacturer

Mistakes Restaurants Make In Gluten-Free Dining
kareng commented on Janice Schroeder's article in Spring 2019 Issue
Of course not! Sometimes people like to stir things up. In the case of “ corn gluten” - sometimes you hear this phrase but the only gluten a Celiac is concerned with is the kind in wheat , rye and barley. In food, the term “ gluten” refers to these 3 grains.- 16 comments

DQB1*0302, but report says no alleles?
kareng replied to cracket's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
About 30% of people have a gene for Celiac but only about 1% actually have Celiac. did he at least do the endoscopy and get positive biopsies? Sounds like you might need to educate yourself or get another GI https://www.cureceliacdisease.org/screening/ -

Did they test you for Celiac? Please don’t go Gff until you have at least had the blood antibody testing -
Elderberry Syrup. Can we take it?

I know people with Celiac who use it. -
positive TTG IGA, (+) biopsy, (+) h pylori
kareng replied to eps's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I think what he is saying is that H pylori might be one of those things that can cause the intestinal damage that looks like Celiac. I am not sure that is even true. I think the H pylori is responsible for gastritis. But it does not cause positive Celiac blood antibodies. Its not listed here - https://www.cureceliacdisease.org/faq/what-else... -
The original post is 9 years old - products can change a lot over that time. The best thing to do is read the ingredients and maybe contact the company.

T1D and gluten sensitivity
kareng replied to ramie.wb's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
If you have Celiac- it doesn’t matter if you have diabetes or an ingrown toenail- you must eat strictly gluten free. That means no crumbs from a shared toaster or butter tub. You may find that things you didn’t realize were related to Celiac will disappear.- 4 replies
