    ARCHIVED Grits?

    Lisa replied to Aeman56's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips

    Grits are ground corn and, unless you have issues with corn, they are safe for Celiacs. Oats are a bit different. Due to the high potential of cross contamination in the field and processing, many people with Celiac say away from oats. You can find some "certified" gluten free oat, that are as free of contaminates as possible.

    ARCHIVED Big Oops!

    Lisa replied to DinaB's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    So sorry that you feel bad. Of course, real Snow Crab is gluten free as it's pure crab meat, but I have always heard that imitation crab meat is not gluten free. Imitation crab is often found in California Rolls.

    Can you post the ingredients?

    Everyone is different. It's might be trial and error. There is no legal standardization for items labeled "gluten free", as of yet. "Certified" labeled products do have some regulation.

    Certified means that they are free of gluten contaminates as much as possible. Here is some information about the Gluten Free Certification process: https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.ph...mp;#entry563933

    If Celiac is your concern, the gluten free diet should improve his symptoms. Have you considered keeping a food diary and re-visiting the school to make sure he is not getting any gluten. Has he been tested to see if he does not have any mineral or vitamin deficiencies? Some of the moms here can help you when dealing with the school, or times when he...

    The closest WF from me is 2 1/1 hours away. I tried their cheese biscuits in the frozen section and they were pretty darn good, especially with bacon and egg for breakfast. And I like their prairie bread, also in the frozen section. It's nutty, crunchy and great toasted.

    Welcome and we can try to answer some of your quesitons. Here is some infomation on the Serologic Panel for Celiac - Open Original Shared Link I have always understood that testing for children under the age of five is less reliable than for adults. Yet, still the current testing available are not as reliable as we would like at this time. I have...

    Yup, no time like the present. You can begin the diet after you have had all your tests for Celiac. Here is some starter information you might find helpful: Open Original Shared Link

    Hello and Welcome! Welcome to the club with your "overwhelmingly" positive results. You're in good company here! Many doctors recommend a follow up endoscopy in order to view the extent of damage and to serve as an additional confirmation (most likely the later). I think it took about a couple of weeks for my pathology/biopsy test to...

    Hi Lynn and Welcome, Could you post your full panel results here. Many people can help you interpret them.

    ARCHIVED Bee Stings?

    Lisa replied to Chef16's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    I don't know, but I react strongly to bee stings. I can't breath and I break out into a cold sweat with tremendous swelling. I suspect, if you have other allergies, it might have something to do with an adverse response. I have no other allergies that I am aware of. But I don't think having Celiac is a connection.

    ARCHIVED Gluten Intolerant Vs. Celiac

    Lisa replied to Presto's topic in Doctors

    A gluten intolerance can effect other areas of the body. Celiac Disease manifests it's self in the small intestines, where the autoimmune response takes place. Both disorder may be associated with other autominune and non-autoimmune conditions if left unchecked.

    ARCHIVED Gluten Intolerant Vs. Celiac

    Lisa replied to Presto's topic in Doctors

    Here is some information that might be helpful: Open Original Shared Link Frequently, on the forums the terms gluten sensitivity, gluten intolerance and Celiac Disease are interchanged, although they are different disorders. This, I believe creates great confusion. The testing currently available is far from accurate and as you mentioned, to achieve...

    Welcome! Artificial ingredients should not be a problem, because they would be of a chemical nature and not wheat, barley, rye and malt. Natural flavor could and when not indicated, it's good to call the company. I do think it's a rare chance that natural flavor should contain gluten, but do check. Wheat must always be listed, but barley, malt and...

    ARCHIVED Near East Rice

    Lisa replied to klala's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I'm not familiar with that particular product, but most rice pilaf that I am aware of contains small pasta's mixed with the rice.

    Questions regarding concerns of maltodextrin should be contained in this thread. As interesting as they may be, collateral conversations would be best served as a new topic.
