We love the one Nestle makes. It's so delicious! Make it with milk instead of water.

Go to www.nestleusa.com and ask about their hot chocolate--it was gluten-free the last I knew, but you should always ask--all Swiss Miss was--1-877-528-0745--YooHoo oringinal chocolate--Safeway had some that were 1-877-723-3929--just a few--hope I helped some-----I do know that Hershey's Chocolate Syrup is gluten-free, you could always add it to milk and make it hot :rolleyes: --Deb

I make my own. I put a tsp. each of sugar and Nestle Pure Cocoa Powder in a cup. Stir in Vance's Dari Free and microwave 2 minutes. Stir well. :D This would work with whatever kind of milk you like.

I use the recipe on the box of Hershey cocoa (only I usually do it with the special dark) and I add cinnamon and vanilla. YUMMMY! :lol:

powdered unsweetened cocoa (I use ghiradelli's most often), soy or almond milk, and agave to taste! :-)

What is Agave btw? I mean I know its honey, but how is it different from these bears of honey I get from Kroger?

Add me to the list of making my own... I can make it as sweet or as chocolately as I want.. and I can add vanilla or orange flavor to it, yum.

My mom says that Almond Breeze chocolate milk tastes really good heated up and it's gluten free. I haven't tried it yet myself, but I plan to.

Becky6 Enthusiast

I was thinking of trying that for Belle Carrie! It tastes like hot chocolate anyways!

I like to use powdered cocoa and sugar in milk... makes the best hot cocoa, but I also called Nestle and got the automated system that confirmed that their Butterfinger Hot Cocoa mix is gluten-free... Haven't tried it yet, but got it for my daughter to try. She loves anything peanut butter...

Actually, it's not honey. Its nectar from the agave plant - the same stuff that's fermented(?)/distilled to make tequilla. It's a bit sweeter than honey (so you need less of it) and the light agave has a milder flavor that makes it better suited to things that don't play well with honey. It also has a lower glycemic index than honey, so it doesn't spike your blood sugar quite as quickly in the same quantitites. It is more expensive, however, so not necessarily worth it for everyone.

I highly recomend Open Original Shared Link hot chocolate. And if you've ever seen the movie Chocolat then you HAVE to try the xchocolatl flavor! The best thing is there is no dairy added!

      Which supplement says take 3 four times a day? Take the B Complex, one Benfotiamine, one Thiamax and one Neuromag at breakfast.   You can take more Thiamax and Benfotiamine at lunch with another Neuromag.

      Hello Surinder, and welcome to the forum. Thank you for sharing your experience. Have you been diagnosed with coeliac disease? Although less common, there are reports of coeliac disease being associated with pulmonary conditions causing symptoms such as a chronic cough.     Case Report: A case of cough, lymphocytic bronchoalveolitis and coeliac disease with improvement following a gluten free diet
    • Surinder
      I read with interest someone's article regarding gluten and coughing and how drs could not diagnose the cause. I am a prediabetic and in the process of cutting down on carbs I slowly eliminated bread and added more complex carbs and found that my cough had gone and I was feeling generally calmer and happier. This was an accidental finding and I relate to your story. I have shared my story for you. Kind regards, Surinder

      tldr: "we tested your daughter with one test and that result does not suggest Celiac. However, the test we used should not be used as the initial screening test for celiac (like it appears they did) because it misses a lot of cases ("low specificity"). No further testing is scheduled or pending" We eat "gluten" and our bodies digest part of it into "deamidated gliadin" (GLIADIN (DEAMID)). The gliadin is what actually triggers the Celiac disease pathway. The celiac's immune system sees gliadin much like an invading virus, and makes antibodies (AB) against gliadin. Each antibody has the ability to recognize a specific target (anti-gliadin antibodies recognize gliadin). When antibodies find their specific target, they stick to it and call in other parts of the immune system to help eliminate the target. This process also causes the immune system to make a lot more of that antibody, and your test was designed to measure if there was an elevated level of type A (IgA) anti-gliadin antibodies. Antibodies, which are also called immunoglobulins (Ig), come in different types (e.g. class "A" or "G"). Think of antibodies as different kinds of cars, and antibody types as different colors of car. An "A" type (color) is called IgA, and a G type is called IgG. IgA's are more relevant to Celiac disease than are the IgG's or other types. Unfortunately, some people don't make very much of the IgA class (like not making aqua-colored cars, even though they make the same cars in green) and that's a common reason for the gliadin-Ab-IgA test to fail to identify celiac. As Trents wrote, they should have given her a "total IgA" test and probably tested her for the anti-tTG IgA antibody.

      So I have the Benfo, Thiamax, and Neuromag along with my Super B Complex. When I read the labels it says take 3/take 4 times a day but one pill a day is ok correct since its 4 pills at breakfast.
