I use sugar free trident gum, and normally have no reaction to the gum...or xylitol, the sweetener, but a couple of times this month, I was definitely glutened. I hadn't used gum in months. Then bought some. Got a little attack. Stopped gum. Used it again, got a definite reaction.  The only common denominator was the gum.  

I googled and various sources say its gluten free.  Why I reacted this time, is a mystery. Maybe I got a trace somewhere else, and then the xylitol couldn't be tolerated.

But I thought I should mention that I was able to relieve the abdominal stress and gas by doing my yoga routine, especially the twists that are good for digestion. Obviously, yoga isn't a cure, but it moved things around and relaxed my spasms. Really feeling better. 

Oh well. It's inevitable if you have celiac, you will never be 100% free of attacks, as rare as mine are. But I'm glad the yoga helped and thought I'd share that revelation. It might not work for everyone. I do yoga with Yoga Sutra Now and Rock Your Yoga, about five times a week. They are both shows on Veria Living, a very glutenfree-friendly tv channel and website.  They have lots of good recipes for gf, including an entirely gf dessert show, and the host of Rock Your Yoga is gf.
