  1. Here is some information that can answer you questions: Open Original Shared Link
  2. Campbell's CANADA and Campbell's US have TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT LISTING. Campbell's CANADA has serveral gluten free products which are not in the US. Thank you for posting this for all our Canadian friends.
  3. You can find Panera's Gluten Free opitons on line www.panerabread.com
  4. I have long forgotten my source for this, but it's my understanding that you absorb 75% of the fluid intake in your small intestines. If you have villi damage, it's a reasonable cause for extra ordinary thirst. I experienced this in the early stages after my diagnosis. Listen to you body. But maybe you can concentrate your fluids earlier in the day...
  5. I agree tremendously Tim. The interchange between "gluten sensitivity" and "gluten intolerance" have created great misunderstanding, confusion and frustration here on C.com for the many years that I have been involved.
  6. www.triumphdining.com ...has a Grocery Guide. It's a great asset for the first year after a diagnosis. After that, you should be able to read labels. Lists are great in the beginning, but ingredients change frequently and then they become unreliable. Truimph puts out a new listing annually. But reading labels is essential in the long run.
  7. Any time you eat at a fast food restaurant you should assume the risk. Even though a product may be considered gluten free, the risk for cross contamination is great. I don't mangers would intentially lie to you about their proceedures. Have you considered a dairy issues? Especially if you are new to the diet and have not healed. Or, if you have...
  8. https://www.celiac.com/articles/21567/1/Ten...ting/Page1.html Laboratories in the U.S. that are known to offer complete alpha and beta subunit genetic testing include Kimball Genetics, Prometheus, and LabCorp. Bonfils, Quest and Enterolab only test for the beta subunit portions and therefore their test can miss part of a minor alpha subunit that carries...
  9. Ah yes, glutenous wine barrels comes up from time to time. Until wine manufactures are subject to the full disclosures as in foods, we might not ever know whats in that bottle. But, I would assume that IF there was residual gluten from a wine barrel that it would be so insignificant. Common sense would imply that you don't contaminate good wine with wheat...
  10. I have not seen information specific to boxed wine, but wine is naturally gluten free. Wine Coolers need to be checked, because not all are gluten free. Here is a list of safe alcohols: https://www.celiac.com/articles/222/1/Glute...ages/Page1.html
  11. Here are some list that may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/categories/Safe-Glut...3B-Ingredients/ Here is a list of company who will clearly list wheat, barley, malt and rye: Open Original Shared Link And welcome. This is a good place to be.
  12. The prospect of beginning a gluten free life style for your daughter may be daunting to you at this time, but there have been many, many studies that children with Autism greatly improve on the gluten free diet, let alone that her number of increasing. Here are a couple articles. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Not one of us...
  13. Even though, distilled alcohol is considered safe for Celiac to consume, I have known several super sensitve who will react to distilled grain based fluids, even though no detectable level remains. So maybe this debate may not have a conclusion? Maybe some people have to determine what level is safe for them.
  14. A product cannot be gluten free and contain a detectable level of wheat. A product can be wheat free, yet not gluten free.
  15. To clear up some ongoing confusion, it's a good to contact the manufacturer directly. Here is Georgia-Pacific's quick response to my question regarding Dixie Paper Products. False information can be spread fear needlessly: Thank you for contacting the Georgia-Pacific Consumer Response Center. Georgia-Pacific places tremendous importance on the feedback...
  16. Lemonade - Country Time, Chrystal Light Ice Cream - Most of Edy's (read label) Ices? Popcorn - Newman's Own Micro Butter, Light, Natural Tender White and White Cheddar Chips - Chi-Chi's - All Salsa - Pace - All Picante Sauce, Newman's Own - Most (read label) There are other brand named products that are gluten free. These are generally available...
  17. Yes is the answer to that question. Keep on a full gluten diet until you have exhausted all testing for the optimum accuracy.
  18. I have never heard of a paper plate containing gluten.
  19. That is certainly not a stupid question and it's been asked quite a bit here. Shampoos and body washes should be gluten free because there is a chance of getting into your mouth while you bath or shower. Feel free to ask way. The learning curve is very steep when your tackling a new lifestyle. This is a great place to ask for help.
  20. Yes, there it is. Thanks Darn210. It IS hard to notice.
  21. I'm not quite sure which one you're referring too. Here are several links found on celiac.com: https://www.celiac.com/categories/Celiac-Di...-Organizations/ This one stops on Montana. We can inquire with the site Administrator: https://www.celiac.com/articles/227/1/A-Lis...ters/Page1.html
  22. I will attempt to answer all your questions from the ground up. Celiac is an autoimmune disorder. Consuming gluten triggers an autoimmune response, which will turn your body against itself. This occurs in the small intestine. There are some other foods that can create the same response by destroying the villi, but I believe it is rare. If I understand...
  23. I did a search for Cadbury - gluten Free and this is what I found. I do not know how current this information is or whether it is a Canadian, European or US listing and it may differ. You might want to dig deeper, so you children can enjoy the cake: Open Original Shared Link
  24. I don't believe that Enterolabs offers a "Celiac Panel". They can test you for a gluten sensitivity, but cannot test for Celiac. Never have.
  25. Yes, Cheers to you Peter!
