Feeling Depressed

I am five weeks pregnant.  I can't have gluten or dairy.  I watch other people eat wonderful food, while I eat my coconut ice cream and cheese-less sandwiches.  I only eat organic and I am super careful.  But sometimes, and obviously even before I just want to give in, I won't but I want to.  My favorite foods I make are my spicy chicken oven kabobs, diaya cheese gluten free chicken pizza, and burritos.  Everything else seems bland and bla to me lately.

 

 

Does anyone have any idea on a tasty recipe, something different and good?  Please help!!!!!!

You ask for something different?  What do you normally eat?

You ask for something good?  What kinds of things do you generally like?

 

When I was pregnant, my favorite foods were avocados, sushi, and (twice - ONLY twice) BLT's.

I like muffins made with nut flours.  My whole family liked them with fenugreek.  I really like kidney beans and lentils with olive oil, and salt.  I like meat.  I look forward to sweet potato day.  When I don't have a sweet potato, carrots cooked to carmelized on the stove are scrumptious.  Speaking of carmelized home-grown-green-beans and any vegetable carmelized is yummy.  I like nuts and dried peas.  Fruit is like a real treat.  If you learn to like whatever you are eating, food is fun again.

 

My sense of taste is becoming sharper, I think.

I love pastries, muffins, and spicy foods.  I don't eat pastries anymore as I haven't had much success making them.

Almond flour mixed with a little vanilla makes a nice tasting pastry filling.  I found a recipe online.

Why don't you read around on this forum? We have a recipe/ cooking section. Look at the what's for dinner section. See what others are eating. Many are dairy free, also.

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      50 YO Male Recently Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
