We started Belle on her gluten-free diet on saturday night. She has been doing really good and understanding of the diet. Amazed me since she is only 3! So this am I went out to clean the snow off of the car. I came in and she informed me that she had eaten 3 dog biscuts!! The first ingredient is wheat! I can't believe my little stinker! I just hope this doesn't set us back too much!

Oh my! It's funny what little kiddos will put in their mouths...but I really hope she doesn't get too sick from them!

However, if she remembers she got sick because of something she wasn't suppossed to eat, that could prevent this happenning again. I hope she stays well!

I cleaned out a very low shelf that had had pots and pans in it when my son went gluten free. It had all of his finger foods *he was three, as well*. I made a big deal about how these were HIS foods and if he wanted a snack, he could go get one himself. I marked his name on all of the containers as a back-up of what exactly was his. Ultimately, I ended up purchasing a large pantry cabinet from Ikea and deemed that his food closet. All his food continued to be marked with his name... as a back-up form of identification for his peace of mind *as well as mine*. It worked wonderfully. He never ate anything that wasn't his because he felt so proud of having his own stuff in it's own spot.

For some reason 3 year olds love dog food. My son would eat relatively little people food but would clean out the dogs bowl every chance he got.

Yep, my daughter went after the dog food too. Wheat withdrawals, or possible pica could have been a reason she was too young to tell me at the time why she was eating it.

Oh no!! I hope she doesn't get too sick from it!

Both of my kids like to eat dog/cat food. what is it with that?? I can't keep the baby away from it! He also barely eats any table food, but goes straight for the dog dish. go figure.

I hope your little one feels well!

I recall tasting liver snaps once. One of the colors was better than the rest, though I don't remember which one :)

I heard about a kid who was exchanging his food with that of the dog. His parents had no idea, until the DOG kept getting sick!

Now, if you child starts drinking from the toilet...

Well we had only been on the diet since saturday so I am not sure how much I would see. But she sure is crabby this afternoon! Not herself at all! Just can't wait to see if gluten-free helps her!

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
