The gluten-free Gourmet by Betty Hagman has a recipe for it. It's way too long to post, but any book store or even healthfood store should have it. Good luck!

Hi Lisa, I get the cheese ravioli from the Dietary Shoppe which is in Philadelphia.

The web is http/www.dietaryshoppe.com . They also have stuffed shells and lasagna, all frozen. I am pretty sure they ship the frozen foods but since it is local I have never tried. I have also discovered that a company called Nuovo pasta make gluten-free potato gnocchi that is available at WHole Foods but not in my area. They can be ordered by the case and the phone is 203-380-4090 ext. 111.

Good Luck,

KathyB

Hi Guys, Thank you for the info. Hey, Kathy B. I live in Collegeville, Pa. I never heard about the Dietary Shoppe. I'm headed to the web site now. It takes about 40 minutes for me to drive into Philly so I see a road trip in the very near future. Thank you, thank you, thank you, This forum is AWESOME! I can't wait for a Ravioli again, Bye for now, and truthfully, thank you, Lisa :P

Lisa and Sara, I do believe the ravioli is from the company Dietary Specialties but I don't have any in right now. Lisa, The Dietary SHoppe is a must trip. The store is almost entirely gluten free except for a few speciality foods for PKU? and diabetics.

They have both frozen and dry goods and the shopowner is Celiac and can give you lots of help. Try the Bi-Aglut dry pasta. It is like no other gluten-free PASTA. They also carry ready made frozen pizza fromFoods By George which are pretty good. My daughter is going to Gwynedd-Mercy College and I know it is not far from Collegeville since I grew up in Conshohocken. Can you recommend any shops or restaurants in the area?

Kathy

Hi Kathy, We really don't eat out to often, I have a 4 year old son, and a 8 1/2 month old son, who really don't like to sit still that long. We do order out sushi from Fuji San which is the best sushi around. Its located right off of 422 at the Royersford exit. Were going to the Dietary shoppe on Saturday, I can't wait. Thanks again, Lisa:)

Thanks Lisa - maybe by the time the kids get a little older their will be more restaurant choices for you. I gave the dietician at Gwynedd the business card from the Dietary Shoppe and she is going to order some of my daughter's favorites. Good luck on Saturday.

Hi Everyone, the family and I took the short trip to the Dietary Shoppe on Saturday, WOW the place is fantastic. I finnally got my ravioli's they were amazing. I also got chocolate dounuts, cinnamon bunns, onion bagels, mushroom soup mix, and some other goodies. The owner was a dietician at a hospital and decide to open her own store. She has been in this location for two months. Previously she was in Chestnut Hill. Everything I've tasted so far was excellent, not chewy or gross. I really love the dounuts......Well if you have never been there, it is a must or check out the web site. Thanks everyone for all the info, YOU"RE THE BEST!!!!!!! :D

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Yes. I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy. Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates did very little to help with symptoms

      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm. Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate...

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
