Hi Folks, I am English but live in Costa Rica, and so it is sometimes quite tricky reading the labels for Gluten free products..I have only been Gluten Free for about a week and so I am on a learning curve...I have been using Maggi Consome concentrado in my food in the past but it all has Gluten...So I need to find something else to use, I will be visiting the supermarket tommorow to look, and I just hope I can find something else, as we are pretty limited out here on certain things.

 

A little about me....

 

I have Ulcerative Colitis, GERD, I am Lactose intolerant and I suspect Gluten intolerant, which is why I am on this site...thank you.

It would be hard to tell you something specific.  I don't know what brands you have there.  But the main reason is, sometimes, ingredients are different for different countries.  You may just have to read the labels or make your own.

Do you mean like chicken or beef broth?  These are a couple of kinds that are gluten-free in the US.  If you see them, still read the ingredients.

Hi Zebra! 

Beef Consommé recipe

(but finding a gluten-free bouillon or stock is key unless you make your own which may be wiser?)

3 quarts chilled beef bouillon or stock
1 ½ pounds ground beef (free from fat)
1 carrot
2 leeks
2 celery stalks
2 egg whites

Chop the carrot, leeks and celery stalks and add to a large pot with the chilled stock and ground beef.  Add 2 egg whites lightly beaten with a fork to the pot.  Add salt to taste.  Constantly stir while bringing the pot slowly to a boil, until only a few bubbles break the surface.  Stop stirring once a slight boil is reached and the raft begins to form in the pot.  Continue to simmer slowly for an hour to an hour and a half.  Once the consommé is done cooking, carefully skim off any matter that floated to the top and discard it.  Strain the consommé through several layers of cheesecloth or a paper filter before serving.

Hi, thank you that's very kind of you to post that..I did manage to pick up some Organic Pacific Oean consommes so I will give those a try..I don't suppose you know what is a good thickening agent, in the past I have always used flour or cornflour to thicken soups but I guess that out now.

you can use corn flour, or corn starch, or All purpose G F flour. (unless you are avoiding all grains as well as gluten? )

or  potato starch or tapioca starch

      EGD with flatten mucosa

      Welcome to the forum, @HeloIP! There are some other diseases, some medications (NSAIDs, olmesartan) and even some other food protein intolerances (the dairy protein casein) that can cause flattened villi in the duodenum but the most likely cause is celiac disease. Your GI doc may want to run some blood work to check for antibodies that are specific...

      EGD with flatten mucosa

      For years, I’ve had intermittent gut symptoms that included abdominal pain, fatigue, bloating, and gas. I did not have significant diarrhea. A few days ago, I had a EGD that revealed gastritis and mucosal flattening in the duodenum. I’m waiting on the results of the biopsy now. I feel that celiac disease is what has been my problem for years. I’m almost afrai...

      Caribbean Sailing with Celiac

      Greetings! I would love to get a group going with fellow sailors with celiac disease who would be interested in chartering a sailing yacht down in the Caribbean perhaps a few times a year. Most likely in the US and/or British Virgin Islands, though other islands may also be considered. Doesn't have to be the same people and doesn't have to be only...

      Forum Rules

      Greetings! I'd like to post a request for interest in an event I'd like to set up. But before I do, I'm wondering what the rules for posting in the forum are. Is there somewhere on this site where the rules for posting in the forum or in meetup groups are located? Thanks in advance.

      Refractory Coeliac Disease research to reduce anxiety

      There is no minimum time since diagnosis of refractory coeliac disease to be eligible for this research. The research is a feasibility study for people with refractory coeliac disease since there is currently no psychologically based intervention tailored for refractory coeliac. The aim of this research is to provide therapeutic support that is not routinely...

Your GI doc may want to run some blood work to check for antibodies that are specific to celiac disease as a follow-up so, in case he/she does, don't start a gluten-free diet until that blood draw is done.

I feel that celiac disease is what has been my problem for years. I’m almost afraid they’ll tell me the test is negative and then I’ll be right back where I started. Any insights on these findings would be helpful. Thank you.

      Caribbean Sailing with Celiac

      By Joel K · Posted

      Greetings! I would love to get a group going with fellow sailors with celiac disease who would be interested in chartering a sailing yacht down in the Caribbean perhaps a few times a year.  Most likely in the US and/or British Virgin Islands, though other islands may also be considered.  Doesn't have to be the same people and doesn't have to be only experienced sailors.  But everybody would have to be willing to share in the charter, provisioning, and running expenses, in participating in sailing the yacht, and sharing in the work of living on board for a week or two at a time.  This would be a good opportunity to travel safely, foodwise, as all food on board would be provisioned as gluten free.  Of course, I realize many with celiac disease concurrently have additional food interaction issues and we would have to plan around these as well.  But the main concern and commonality among all hands is celiac disease.  We might have some meals ashore as well, and so planning the restaurants out would certainly be a part of our discussions on the trip. The modern yachts will range from 40 to 60 foot long and we'll have berths for six to ten persons, including myself.  Since chartering is such a big deal in the Caribbean, we will need to reserve a boat well in advance.  So firm committment to the venture would need to take place early once the process begins -- often up to a year in advance.  I will have more details once we get some interest. I am a retired ship captain after 48 years at sea, having sailed also in many traditional and modern schooners and a few yachts.  I last chartered a 52 foot sloop out of Road Town, Tortola, in the BVI in April 2025, and am course certified in ASA-101, 103, & 104.  My USCG Master license for Oceans was finally retired in 2022 and no longer active.  I live in Manchester, New Hampshire and work as a Myoskeletal Alignment Therapist with a clinic in Bedford, NH. If you have any interest in chartering with me, please let me know.

      There is no minimum time since diagnosis of refractory coeliac disease to be eligible for this research. The research is a feasibility study for people with refractory coeliac disease since there is currently no psychologically based intervention tailored for refractory coeliac. The aim of this research is to provide therapeutic support that is not routinely offered at gastroenterology clinics thus encourages people to maintain wellbeing in consideration of having symptoms despite a gluten free diet. Hope you gain further clarity and some relief following your endoscopy!
