  3. Once you have a diagnosis, there is no need to test again. But, the above tests can check for presents of anitbodies to gluten in the system.
  4. Yup, the result kinda talk to each other to make for a more accurate result. Open Original Shared Link
  5. Progresso Creamy Mushroom Soup is gluten free. The Gluten Free Pantry has a corn bread mix that's ok. I usually add sugar, salt, sour cream, corn and green chili peppers to mine. Whole Foods grocery store may have pre-made corn bread.
  6. Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA Total IgA level. Good luck with your mother.
  7. BECAUSE...I can see the oats milled or processed with an occasional wheat cross contamination as it's packaged and presented. I can't see my zucchini, beans, squash, nor my corn, nor my tomatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe with tiny pieces of wheat embedded or processes into them. Whatever dirt or debris I see, I rinse off, as most would do. The fear is...
  8. What does he do and how does he do it?
  9. When I buy fresh product, I wash it well under running water before I cook it and eat it, much the same way that I would wash a plate or a pan before I re-used it again. I see no alarm nor concern from field cross contamination, with the exception of possibly oats which are processed in much the same manner as wheat.
  10. I agree with Elizabeth. It can take up to several month of diligence on the gluten free diet to see improvement for some. Initially, if you have intestinal damage, any food will be an issue. And until your villi are on the road to recovery, it's hard to tell a "glutening" from a damaged intestinal track. It all blends in. I would continue to be...
  11. GLUCOSE, GLUCOSE SYRUP AND CARAMEL COLOUR . It is important for those following a gluten-free diet to incorporate the latest valid scientific information into their diets. Under current Australian food law, . glucose, glucose syrup and caramel colour are "gluten-free", even if derived from wheat, as the wheat is so highly processed, there is no gluten...
  12. https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.ph...mp;#entry479742 Here is information that will direct you to the R.O.C. K. Gluten Free Candy List for 2008.
  13. I'm eating Cool Whip and spice cake as we speak. It's not Laura's mother's, but still good.
  14. http://gfkitchen.server101.com/GFAlcohol.htm#Wine http://www.glutenfreedrinks.com/AlcoholBeverages_Wines.htm You might find this informative. I do not know the reliability of these references. I would also advise to contact the manufacturer, if you find yourself sensitive to wines. I, personally, have never had an issue.
  15. With regard to Celiac, gluten must be consumed to have a reaction which takes place in the digestive system. If someone would have a gluten allergy, topical gluten may cause concern or a reaction.
  16. Glucose (wheat) is highly refined and is considered safe for most people with Celiac to consume. Please read the entire link provided above. They are made by Hershey (in the US), who's policy is not to disclose their source of "natural flavors". I try not to support Hershey for that reason.
  17. Open Original Shared Link Is Rice Dream Beverage a gluten free product? Yes. Although Rice Dream Beverage is processed using a barley enzyme, the barley enzyme is discarded after use. The final beverage might contain a minute residual amount (less than .002%) of barley protein. For a list of gluten free products click here Counsidering...
  18. Agreed David, but please also bear in mind that the thread you commented on is over three years old and the information is very dated.
  19. Krystal, Two week is a relatively short time to master the diet and it can be very complicating as you're finding now. I can't comment about the particular products that you mentioned, but it's always a good rule of thumb to add one thing at a time. That way you can be specific if a product does not settle well with you. Since you're so new to the...

  22. That's fine, and I'm glad that you do . But, I was just saying that it does not appear to speak with any specifics. Thank you for the contact information.
  23. This sounds like a lot of speculation and very little fact, in my opinion. But, thank you for posting this.
