    The walnuts are dusted with flour (they are they only nuts that I have seen like this) and therefore not gluten free, although they are kept in separate packaging. Your mothers reaction time will vary, as well as over supplimenting can also cause tummy issues.

    Dairy can give someone with Celiac, similar symptoms due to absorbtion/villi issues. I would suggest eliminating all dairy for several weeks until some healing can take place. (EDIT - Great minds Janie )

    A scope of the small intestines can look for damage to the villi and scalloped walls, and it can be viewed through the procedure. Biopsy's are taken at that time. Biopsy's can also indicated issues with gluten, but they may miss the effected areas. So a negative endoscopy or biopsy is not conclusive that Celiac Disease is not present. Or perhaps, not...

    The letter from Kikkoman was a bit difficult for me to understand. I asked my chemist daughter for an interpretations: It is saying that the production process in making soy sauce breaks the protein down into it's constituent amino acids (building blocks) and small fragments, which aren't supposed to trigger a celiac response. States that "protein fragments...

    Not to worry. But, washing any fresh fruit would be wise for many reasons.

    Open Original Shared Link Kikkoman claims soy sauce is OK Posted on May 1st, 2007 by alison I was in Miami in April and ate at the famous Nobu Japanese restaurant. I told the waiter about my intolerance to gluten, and therefore my inability to eat soy sauce, as it contains wheat. He replied, “We have something for people like you,” and produced a l...

    Open Original Shared Link Yet, 97% of people with Celiac Disease, go undiagnosed, or misdiagnosed. Until doctors become more informed about the prevalence of this disease and better diagnostic methods are established, it will remain a generally self-diagnosed disease. An unwarranted biopsy should not be considered, but due to the fact that...

    It sounds like you have a gluten ALLERGY as well as a sensitivity or Celiac.

    Richard, there was some talk regarding the fermentation process of soy sauce on this forum a couple of years ago. It sounded quite reasonable to me, but have not seen anything "official".

    It's obvious that you have some level of sensitivity or Celiac Disease. Below is the test to request/demand from your doctor. You must continue to digest gluten until you have exausted your testing. Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA Total...

    I did barely remind myself. I thought Dr. Oz did a great job, but I grew tired hearing reference to the "G.-free" diet. In fact, even on this site, we have automatic controls not to accept "gluten-free" as legitimate. Spell it out Girl! (can you imagine going into a restaurant and explaining to the waitress, "I'm on the G.-free diet"....um grapefruit...

    Coke and Pepsi are all gluten free. Often you can find reliable information if you google, for example "Pepsi - Gluten free", such as this: Open Original Shared Link or through directly to the manufacturer.

    Hi Leno, While your friend is awaiting testing he should have the Celiac Panel, requested from his doctor: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA Total IgA level. Your friend should have an endoscopy exam (small intestines) to detect Celiac...
