Was she coeliac/intoleran/allergic or even sensitive ? No, but she knew all about it due to her line-of-work .. which was ? she worked in a Health Food Store...

ARCHIVED Celiac Disease Vs. Wheat Allergy?
auzzi replied to peanut-gallery's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs

ARCHIVED Hidden Gluten-Free Foods In Australia
auzzi replied to Ebonyjade93's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
These "Gluten Free" foods are not hidden. They just don't claim to be gluten-free .. As we have the most stringent Gluten-free Labelling Laws in the world, many manufacturers do not make the claim as they cannot guarantee 100% compliance over time.

ARCHIVED The Gluten Free Label
auzzi replied to lucky97's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Australian Standards/Law says that if it is not free of gluten [not discernible], then you cannot say it is "gluten-free" .. simple straight-forwards.. Current testing can detect 3ppm - so that's the benchmark in Australia. Low gluten has no relevance to the majority of coeliacs as they follow the zero gluten-free diet. -
