I have found 4 different grocery stores in my area now that carry gluten free food, no more shopping at the health food store for us!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gluten free waffles for cheaper than the gluten-full counterparts, gluten free cake mixes, even gluten free bread at under $4 a loaf. I am so excited, it seems that gluten free really is going mainstream, at least here anyway.

I found out from one of the managers at one of the stores that if you can get them a name brand and upc that most of the time stores will stock whatever you want. I thought that this was wonderful information that I should pass along, we all know that shopping gluten free can be a hassle, think how much easier it would be if we could all get our favorite gluten free food at the regular grocery store :D

I know that the diet is expensive, I was just thinking since the mark-up doesn't seem to be so high, that maybe some of you could scout out your own local stores and ask for some gluten free stuff, believe me it's worth the time.

I just discovered that Stop & Shop has a good variety of gluten-free items in their health food section.

Isn't it exciting to find gluten-free food in the grocery store!!!

I always have to just "look" at the gluten-free section even if I'm not buying anything. You never know they might be carrying something new. ;)

I'm pretty lucky in that alot of stores around me carry gluten-free foods plus theres one store that is pretty much ALL gluten-free....they have just about everything.

Now if I could just get the grocery store where I work to carry something...anything gluten-free...that would be GREAT. I work for a major grocery chain and they look at me like I have 4 heads when I ask about getting some gluten-free foods. :huh:

You should print out a copy of the following article and bring it into the store you work at:

Maybe that will change their minds.....

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Not Sure What to Think

      By MMH13 · Posted

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
