Circulating around Facebook: clinicians recommending omitting gluten.

Fallacy: It's never recommended to try a gluten free diet before getting tested for Celiac. If a physician recommends it, please ask to get tested for Celiac Disease first.

Important Warning about Popular Food Allergy Candy Brand Yum Earth

Yum Earth is a company that's positioned themselves as a top nine, allergy-free candy company. They offer organic candies, dye-free, top 9 allergen -free candies (the top 9 allergens are wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, egg, milk, sesame, fish, and shellfish).

Yum Earth has just changed their packaging to note that wheat is used in their processing. This appears on the packaging of their Sour Littles, Gummy Bears, and Jelly Beans. The company responded that they have always used wheat starch as a processing agent but are only now changing their packaging due to FDA labeling requirements.

Help Make Gluten Labeling a Reality

Eighty seven other countries require the labeling of Gluten (Wheat, Barley, Rye and Oats). Since 2006, only Wheat has been required to be labeled, but but Barley, Rye and Oats. The US needs to catch up with the rest of these countries.

Here's how you can help:

The FDA is allowing 60 days for feedback and comments on the RFI. Specifically the FDA is seeking information on adverse reactions due to "ingredients of interest" (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these "ingredients of interest" on packaged food products in the U.S.

"People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options," said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. "We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices."

Fallacy: Wheat-based sourdough bread is not safe for someone with Celiac or Gluten Sensitivity to eat. There is nothing about the fermenting process that "neutralizes" the gluten.

Gluten Free Watchdog tested 3 wheat-based sourdoughs and they were all found to have significant ppm levels of gluten. Read more here: https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/sourdough-wheat-bread-is-not-safe-for-folks-with-celiac-disease/
