Writing A Paper


Guest TerpyTaylor

Recommended Posts

Guest TerpyTaylor

Hello everyone!

I have to write an editorial for my public relations writing class. The topic I chose to write about is food labeling; my position is obviously FOR it! I've been researching for some really great anecdotes and statisitics (this site is my favorite gluten-free research place) and have found some really good ones, but I was wondering if anyone else had some favorite sites that I haven't stumbled on yet. My paper is due in only a couple of days (quick turnaround in college classes!) but please keep responding because my mom and I are always looking for the latest information on everything celiac!

Thanks a bunch!

:)

if you can get your hands on the most recent copy of gluten-free living magazine, there is an article on labeling. Open Original Shared Link i buy mine at wild oats...

I was going to suggest that you contact the Celiac Center at University of MD. After I saw where you were from, I asuume you already did that :lol: .

Good idea with the gluten-free living magazine! And yes, I did go to the UMD site. Although even though I'm at Maryland, I've never been to the research center. It's not on my campus!

I found a really interesting stat...only 1 in over 4500 people with celiac disease are actually diagnosed! I am certain that 3 of my friends have it, I wish they would get tested!

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.

      I asked about the new fruit and nut one and the Dietician said yes I could eat it safely. Hooe this helps

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.
