ARCHIVED Trader Joe's Peanut Butter
not4sakn replied to not4sakn's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
What are your reactions like? I'm not 100% sure I'm gluten sensitive. I've had a celiac biopsy which was negative but my symptoms resemble those of gluten intolerance. All mine are neurological though. Headaches, neck pain, brain fog, palpitations in my head. I've had countless tests and doctors tell me I'm healthy and normal. While that's great news... -

Just wondering if anyone has had a reaction to this or not? I know peanut butter should naturally be gluten free but a lot of their stuff says it may be produced on same equipment thats processed wheat etc...The peanut butter doesn't specifically say this but many of their products do and I'm curious because something has made me feel bad, either their Almond... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Intolerance Without Your "typical" Stomach Symptoms

On their website it says its manufactured on the same equipment containing gluten foods. That's what caught my attention. My cutting boards are the thick plastic ones. Most of my spatulas, spoons, etc.. are also plastic. I do have a few bamboo ones that are hardly used. I haven't cut dairy out completely but I don't eat it often anyways. Every now... -

So after more research I discovered that while the foods I'm eating are gluten free there could be cross contamination issues. I make home-made pico de gallo and guacamole which I love! I eat Tostitos multi-grain scoops which on Frito's website it's listed as a gluten free food. However, it goes on to mention that while it doesn't contain gluten it could... -

Would someone who's only gluten intolerant take as long to get well compared to a celiac with intestinal damage? When I had an intestinal biopsy the tests was negative for celiac. If there's no damage why would someone that's only gluten intolerant take as long to show signs of improvement if gluten is the culprit? I'm talking 6-8 weeks or more to see... -

Thanks for replying. I'm not ruling out Celiac. I'm saying I had a biopsy done which was negative. Doesn't mean I'm not highly intolerant. I've also noticed a skin rash in my groin area. This comes and goes intermittently. My dermatologist gave me a steroid cream which helps but it always comes back. He says it's from sweat. I'm extremely clean, shower... -

Thanks for the reply! I was tested via biopsy which was negative for intestinal damage. Like you said, that doesn't mean I'm not gluten intolerant which from my understanding there is no test for. The only way to actually confirm this is to eliminate all gluten from your diet for atleast 2 months. I've read testimonies were some noticed positive changes... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Intolerance Without Your "typical" Stomach Symptoms
not4sakn posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm new to the forum and had a few questions regarding your own personal experience with gluten sensitivity/celiac and the symptoms surrounding it. Is it possible to have gluten sensitivity without the typical stomach symptoms such as bloating, pain, gas, vomiting, diarrhea etc...? I've read numerous articles on gluten and the whole host of symptoms...
