    Singer Allie Moss Talks About Gluten Sensitivity

    Celiac.com 12/07/2012 - In a recent interview with S.Z. Berg, singer/guitarist Allie Moss, who is best known for her single "Corner," discusses being diagnosed with gluten sensitivity, and adjusting her diet habits to regain her health.

    Photo: CC-- Man Alive!For Moss, her journey to the diagnosis began a few years back when she was diagnosed with acid reflux. She did not suffer from classic acid reflux symptoms, like heartburn. However, she did notice that she felt bloated and unhealthy even though she ate a fairly healthy diet. Her doctor had prescribed medication, and sent her on her way. However, Moss began to feel that the prescription was causing more problems than it was solving.

    Seeking an answer that would provide her some relief, she went to see a holistic doctor of nutrition. After considering her symptoms, the nutritionist suggested that she suffered from low, rather than high, acid, along with gluten sensitivity.

    Less than a week after she began her gluten-free diet, Moss said that she noticed substantial improvement, like she had been in a fog than suddenly lifted. She told Berg that she now feels "more alert and energetic overall," that her digestion "has improved dramatically, [her] skin is clearer, and [her] voice feels great."

    As a result, Moss says that she is rising to the challenge by changing the way she cooks at home, and the way she eats on the road. She makes sure to keep gluten-free food options on hand, "things like salad fixings, hard-boiled eggs, and gluten-free bread…" She also uses the website and iPhone app called Find Me Gluten Free, which she calls "a lifeline."

    Below is Ron Hoggan's reply the editor of the Montreal Gazette regarding the article: "Open Original Shared Link"
    Dear Health Editor:
    Mr. Dunning represents corn as a choice for bread-making prior to the advent of wheat, rye, and barley cultivation. However, the evidence suggests that corn was not yet available 10 to 15 thousand years ago when wheat, the earliest of these three grains, was first cultivated so it wasn’t available more than 20 thousand years ago when wild barley was first exploited ( 1 ). The evidence also indicates that corn was not available in the Near East, where wheat was first cultivated, as corn was a New World food developed by Mesoamerican indigenous peoples ( 2 ) half a world away.  In short, corn was not a discarded option for bread making when an...

    Celiac.com 02/29/2012 - Gluten-free confections created by a baker from Lake Oswego, Oregon, topped the competition on the latest installment of the Food Network's "Cupcake Wars."
    The winning gluten-free cupcakes were the work of Kyra Bussanich, 33, who opened Crave Bake Shop at 460 Fifth Street, in downtown Lake Oswego, in mid-2011.
    No stranger to the competition, Bussanich finished as first runner-up on the program last year. That was good enough to earn her place as one of four pastry chefs invited back to the televised cupcake competition.
    Bussanich, is the first gluten-free baker to win the show's top spot, producers told her. She is also the only Pacific Northwest resident to win the competition.
    The show's theme celebrated the 100th Episode of the TNT television...

    Celiac.com 03/08/2013 - Gluten-free foodies in the Chicago/Evanston area were faced with the closure of one of their best gluten-free bakeries, until a good samaritan stepped forward with a business plan and a check.
    This past Christmas looked bleak for Rose O'Carroll. The owner of Rose's Wheat Free Bakery and Cafe in Evanston, Illinois was slated to close her doors in the face of a $100,000 debt, until she struck a last minute deal with Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis to keep open the struggling business.
    O'Carroll first met Lemonis a year and a half ago, when he began eating gluten-free by choice. After learning through a news article about the bakery's financial troubles, Lemonis contacted O'Carroll and pledged to help out.
    O'Carroll has said that the bakery's financial...
