I was just in Edmonton this past weekend and I was TOTALLY impressed with all of the places where you can get gluten free foods! We ate at OPM... AMAZING!! Joey's and Milestones and there were literally about 5 more places that my friend pointed out to me as we were driving by that had gluten free menus. She had looked them up before I came and I was totally impressed. I liked that OPM and Joey's had gluten free menus done up that had lots of choices and looked nice and professional. I wish I could move those places into Regina!!

Just wanted to share for those who are in Edmonton or going there for a trip :D

Yup and Edmonton is home to Kinnickinnick Foods...

my parents live in Sherwood Park, just outside of Edmonton, most of the mainstream stores carry the kinnickinnick products..

maybe the international appeal of gluten-free has been notice in Edmonton.

      Fiber Supplement

      If you don't like prunes, Figs are rich in fiber, with 3-5 dried figs providing about 5 grams.

      Fiber Supplement

      Thanks, I do include chia seeds and ground flax seed in my diet to help as well but on days that I'm not close to my target of 30 grams of fiber, I would add the Benefiber. My IBS-C was much better with both natural foods and the supplement so I will continue to search for another natural supplement that is not based on wheat to have when needed. Thanks

      Fiber Supplement

      Welcome @Trish G to the forum. Hard or lumpy stools and infrequent bowel movements. My brother likes Phillips Stool Softener, Ducolate Sodium. Just a question. Was the benefiber helping? Benefiber is only 3 grams per dose so lots of other foods can supply that. Nutrition label DV for fiber is 28 g. 5 prunes, dehydrated plums,...

      ttg iga high (646 mg/dl) other results are normal

      I think you may be correct. The way the results are printed makes it appear as though it’s the ttg iga but I think you’re right—the 646 is total iga. So this would be indicative of another issue (another autoimmune condition, infection, cancer, etc.) and my doctor would need to do further testing. Thank you for saying this!

      Welcome @Trish G to the forum. Hard or lumpy stools and infrequent bowel movements.  My brother likes Phillips Stool Softener, Ducolate Sodium.   Just a question. Was the benefiber helping? Benefiber is only 3 grams per dose so lots of other foods can supply that.  Nutrition label DV for fiber is 28 g. 5 prunes, dehydrated plums, has 3 grams of fiber and additionally 290 grams of potassium. Potassium is good for IBS-C because it prommotes muscle contractions in the intestines.  Low potassium contributes to constipation and bloating.  Most of us don't eat the RDA for potassium (2600 women, 3400 men) and the DV (Daily Value used on nutrition labels) is 4700 mg a day for men, women and children. When I complained of constipation due to my BP meds my doctor recommened prune juice without hesitation,  When I bother to eat Prunes or plums it works.   I think the fruit is better for you than the juice for addition nutrients.
