    YES! Be a good label reader. Some companies choose to disclose well, now - today. But, who knows what the future will bring. In the five or more years that I have been dealing with Celiac and it's issues, I have seen TREMENDOUS improvements. With hopes, this trend will continue. Be a good label reader, know what companies are good about all gluten...

    This what I understand: Lipton Onion Recipe Soup & Dip Mix does list Autolyzed Yeast Extract (Barley) - basically MSG. I believe that this is one of those components that is so processes, that it is, in fact gluten free, regardless of the source. Open Original Shared Link The Facts # Autolysis is a chemical process in which salt and live yeast...

    Open Original Shared Link Bryers is an Unilever Product and will also list all forms of gluten. Just read the label.

    No crazy lady here!! Your doctor is ill informed. Celiac can occur at every age.Your children may have a genetic pre-disposition as well (although no guarantee that they will develop celiac disease). In most people, it takes an average of 12 years for an official diagnosis. It was formerly known as a childhood disease. It is diagnosed in all ages and...

    Having diarrhea for two years, I would certainly hope that you are under a doctors care. And while you're there get a Celiac Panel and get a full metabolic panel done. It will check for deficiencies needed for a healthy life....if you have not already done so.

    Hi Kayba and Welcome! Here are some New Hampshire Support contacts: Open Original Shared Link This is also a great place to learn, find suppoert or just share your experience. I have made some great, lifelong friends.

    And I used to fly with the Flying Circus in Bealton, many moons ago. Virginia was home for me, but now a bit south of the boarder.

    Open Original Shared Link Here is some information and contacts. I would find it highly unlikely that your tap water would contain gluten, but rather perhaps, a chemical component that you and your family may be sensitive too.

    Yeah...the equivalent of 3-6 slices of bread for 3-6 weeks. From June, you might be able to catch up quickly.

    Yes, Patti is right . It might take more exploring, if you tend to be sensitive.

    But very glad that you took time to educated a customer service rep.

    I have never had the product you spoke of. But, I think that it will be hard to find a product that can guarantee it's "gluten free" status unless it is independently tested. Legally and financially, most companies won't do it. Even though many products contain no gluten ingredients, to declare that it is "gluten free" (which is voluntary at this point...

    Coffee can act as a stimulant. Gurgling would not be unusual for anyone.

    I would recommend: www.CeceliasMarketplace.com www.triumphdinning.com Both can be ordered on line or from the Gluten Free Mall on here. They are great for the new learners and for family members who shop for us. But, not to depend on after a years time. Accuracy may be compromised, due to the rapid ingredient change among products.

    I expect that this is extremely dated information. That same reference is over ten years old. If you use a roll on or a solid deodorant, it should not be a problem.

    Open Original Shared Link What are the recommended blood tests to diagnose celiac disease? There is a particular series of blood tests called the ‘Celiac Panel”. These tests measure your immune system’s response to gluten in the food you eat. tTG-IgA or tissue transglutaminase-IgA AGA-IgG or Antigliadin IgG AGA-IgA or Antigliadin IGA Total IGA ...

    I can attest that beginning the gluten free lifestyle is challenging at best. It takes months and months to learn the ropes and additional months until you can master the diet. It takes countless hours on the internet and a memory like a steel trap to retain all the information. A burn out it not unnatural, but rather the expected. Take small...

    McDonald's is pretty good about disclosing all ingredients. Here is a listing of their products and their contents: Open Original Shared Link Wendy's: Open Original Shared Link

    Google "Gluten Free School Supplies"...you will find several links, but I was hoping for a 2010 listing. Perhaps some of the moms here have a current listing.

    Welcome CassandraMae! You have found yourself in a very good place! People with Celiac Disease have to INGEST gluten for it to be an issue. That reaction takes place in the small intestines, after being consumed. There are people who have a "gluten allergy" in addition to Celiac Disease, but that might result in allergic-type reactions. Loose...

    Huh? Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link I’m sorry to hear that the formulation change we have made to Frappuccino® light means that as a sufferer of celiac disease you are unable to enjoy that beverage. We do not claim any of our beverages as gluten free due to the risk of cross contamination in store or at our manufacturing fa...

    Went to Total Wine today and inquired about Red Bridge - was told it was discontinued.
