    With Auntie and Sister diagnosed with Celiac....ah yeah, good chance with your symptoms. I would recommend endure as much gluten as you can handle. The current recommendation is a slice or two of bread (or equivelant gluten) for eight weeks, will test accurately. This is the full panel you should request from your doctor: Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgA...

    Open Original Shared Link Here is information that provides summer camp information, although it does request a donation for support... it's still good information for kids with Celiac Disease to have a great time.

    Love the idea(s)! When I can drop two large pines from the yard... YES, my plan as well.

    Do look into an endo exam, as was mentioned earlier. With a family history and personal history of digestive disorders/discomfort, it's always good , in the least, get an "inside look" to insure that there are no, more serious issues...or as a baseline test. imho

    Hi! Welcome to the Club! I personally think it's beneficial to take a quality muli-vitamin, because as much as we may try, our diet is not always as balanced as we would wish it to be. I take a pre-natal vitamins (and way, way too old for babies ), because it supplies me with folic and b-12, which I lack. Generally, dedication to a full gluten free...

    Hello and Welcome! Please feel free to take a walk around this place. There is a lot of great information as you travel down your gluten free road. Karen mentioned that this is an older thread...yes, and the facts may not be accurate today. But I do think that Wendy's Frosties are still gluten free, as last I checked.

    Yeah....Jess always has a wonderful way of saying things. Yup, hope your darkest days are behind you - hugs from me too!

    Yup, you get the good stuff...hope it hold until it gets to the coast. Sadly, we might just get a dusting. Snow day tomorrow for YOU! AND wavying at Nikkers! Miss you 'round these parts.

    ditto on the Campbells ....I had an issue and contacted them.

    There are issues beyond gluten. Iron is very hard on the system. If this continues, you should seek medical attention asap.

    I can't comment on the biscuits, but I certainly hope and pray that your grand daughter makes a full recovery....they are so special.

    There is no legal criteria for testing gluten in the US, regardless of specifics. I don't worry about "hydrolyzed protein" stuff. Some very sensitive, may. Edit: I've been watching the Golden Globes and twenty people may have posted prior to me. Disregard my advise if you choose.

    ....News to me, or am I behind the curve? Open Original Shared Link Currently, there is no Federal regulation that defines the term "gluten-free" used in the labeling of foods. Based upon comments FDA received during its public meeting on "gluten-free" food labeling held in August 2005 and other information available to the Agency, there is no...

    Not too sure about a gluten relationship, but are you on any meds that would make you a bit heat sensitive..... BP meds or cholesteral meds, or other? ...just a thought. Gluten does not hide too much these days.

    Wendy, direct information from a company surpasses any information that you may find on the 'internet'. And if you find a customer representative that you are not confident with, call again and ask more questions. I have found that the number on the back of any product, to be a very useful item. And I have also found that every customer rep I have spoken...

    Thank you for posting this.

    It is possible that there may be other causes for itching? I understand that there is a common theme here connecting DH with Celiac, but there are others causes,too. I am currently undergoing a variety of options, as I stated earlier.
  20. Lisa
    I don't think its a part of Celiac, but maybe in association of a compromised system, or DH itself. Liver enzymes can be out of wack due to Celiac. It can be very common with a diagnosis (some can itch, others not). Meds, could also be a cause. Blood pressure meds or cholesteral meds could also be a player. Simply easy scratching can leave whelps. ...

    Barq's Root Beer is a US manufactured product and in 2012 it was purchased by Coke. It is listed as gluten free, currently.

    Since Probiotics are a frequent subject here, I thought it appropriate to post Dr. H. R. Peter Green's statement at the 2012 CDF Conference, as published in Celiac Disease Foundation INSIGHT publication (fall 2012): "There is no evidence that probiotics are of any value in celiac disease to my knowledge, and people should be very careful, because this...

    Merry Christmas to All...stockings are stuffed and to all a good night!

    I think you have it the other way around. If you see 'modified food starch' you can assume that it has NO wheat. Wheat by law, in the US, must be listed as 'modified food startch (wheat)'.
  25. Lisa
    Great production! But, I would like to add one correction. In the US and ingredient derived from wheat (as in 'modified food starch'), by law, it must be listed in the ingredient listing or on an allergin warning. In other words, if modified food starch, was derived by a wheat souce it must be listed as "Modified Food Starch (wheat)", or "This product...
