I don't know about those brands, but, I use Sweet Essentials. It actually says "gluten free". They are really great and taste like tootie-rolls, so I get my calcium and a candy fix as well.

Oh Nini--thank you! That brought a smile to my face. When we first moved to GA, our kids were young--4 & 7--and my husband, who had been transfered there and had the chance to explore a little bit, couldn't wait to show them the Big Chicken when we all moved down there. :D

      Washing strawberries in water, which you should always do anyway due to pesticides that may be on them, should make them safe.

      Gluten-Free Pre-Workout & Recovery Foods – What’s Your Go-To?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is possible you have an additional food intolerance, possibly to milk/casein?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      What apps or tech tools help you manage celiac disease?

      By Olenaideole · Posted

      Hey @trents, thanks! Yeah I’ve used Scan Gluten Free too at some point. It works, though like you said, those databases aren’t always super current. I also used Mitch (getmitch.app). But it’s not an app, just a simple web tool that reads the ingredient list and highlights hidden gluten, risky additives, and cross-contamination notes. But not bad for double-checking labels when things look suspicious.
