Any one had the Burger king Chili before? I don't have any stomach problems to

tell if theres gluten in there or not. I went to Wendy's and they were out of a

baked potatoes and the taco salad and their chili. So I drove to Burger King and

guess I just took a big chance woofing down their chili. I was starving.

Ps I did not think I had any symptoms but since eating gluten free for 35 days

My iron is up to 11.4

I'm sleeping through the night

I'm not irriated by people

I can SEE at night

no need for preperation H

My skin has color again

I'm confused. I too am fairly new to this but if you go to the home page of this web site (celiac.com) and go to the link 'mainstream products that are gluten-free' it has a ton of candy. Butterfingers, snickers and a lot more. There are a ton of gluten-free brownie recipes and mixes. Certainly enough to cure any sweet tooth. I have printed off all the safe and forbidden food lists but both my son & I (mostly me) find this diet fairly easy. I feel like I have a good grasp on what is legal but now I am concerned. Am I missing something?

Also a wonderful recipie for fried chicken breast is as follows:

1. Dust your chicken with a legal flour

2. Roll it in soaked ground flaxseed. (2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed and 2/3

cup of lukewarm water. Give this mix time to absorb. 4 to 5 minutes.

3. roll it in brown rice bread crumbs. I have only used HOL-GRAIN bread crumbs.

4. Then put in in your pan with olive oil, salt it and cook it. Make sure you have

enough HOT oil so your chicken does not stick.

This is a 5 star out of 5. I make it for company & they love it.

Hi

I'm a newly diagnosis celiac (4 weeks) and I found this board when my doctor said he suspected I had celiac disease after an endoscopy. (Of course since then the biopsy and blood test were positive) Since I had never heard of it I immediately turned to the internet and found this site.

After reading a lot of the messages and info I was really excited to have a place to talk to people and learn from people who have had a lot more experience then me.

In all the reading here I've done, I learned of a site www.safetoeat.net that had a list of items that are safe at different fast food places and I also learned about the Outback.

I have to tell you, today was the first day I was really feeling down (pretty depressed) since my diagnosis. It could have to do with the fact that I went for a family birthday gathering at a pizza place last night. This had already been set up before my family new about me having celiac disease and there was nothing I could eat except salad. I hate salads!

This morning my daughter kept after me to take her to the mall and so I finally agreed to do it and I thought 'I need to eat before we go' so I don

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      @HectorConvector, Step off the gas. I'm in the U. S. That was what my doctor told me thirty years ago. Things may have changed since then. Things are different on the other side of the pond. Here we go by mg/dl. The smaller incremental changes are more noticeable using mg/dl. Also, I adopted a Ketogenic diet. Ketogenic diets don't spike...

      @knitty kitty Holy smokes, that Life Extension B-Complex is burning me up. My multi-vitamin already has 25mg of Niacin. The b-complex adds another 100mg on top of that. My face, neck, and ears look like the Cardinal I use for my profile pic. I have been on the b-complex for 10-days now and it seems to get a bit worse with each passing day. I think I...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      Evidence from normoglycaemic studies shows that healthy people peak at ~1 hour, and they then return to baseline in 2–3 hours, not 1.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      I'm not sure what you're referring to as "normal" here - and is this something your doctor has mentioned (in bold)? As that isn't what any study or official information says. According to diabetes UK and the British Heart Foundation, normal fasting blood sugar is 4.9-5.4mmol/L. Normal by 2 hours from the start of a meal is anywhere below 7.8mmol/L. Random...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      My skin biopsy and MRI scan shows no signs of any type of nerve damage. Nothing consistent with demylination or peripheral nerve damage. On the contrary, the nerve function from the skin biopsy proved better than normal. I don't get any pins and needles or have any loss of nerve function. It's pain only. Thiamin I take is 100mg a day in tablet. I...

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @HectorConvector, Step off the gas. I'm in the U. S.  That was what my doctor told me thirty years ago.  Things may have changed since then.  Things are different on the other side of the pond.  Here we go by mg/dl.  The smaller incremental changes are more noticeable using mg/dl.   Also, I adopted a Ketogenic diet.  Ketogenic diets don't spike blood glucose as much, and therefore return to fasting levels sooner.  My own experience is my postprandial blood glucose level returned to fasting levels an hour after the end of a meal on a Ketogenic diet.  I was asking if the thiamine you take is thiamine hydrochloride or Benfotiamine or Thiamine TTFD.  Thiamine Mononitrate is not well absorbed nor utilized by the body.  I learned that amounts larger than 100 mgs of thiamine hydrochloride needs to be taken in thiamine deficiency.   500mgs thiamine hydrochloride is recommended by the World Health Organization for several days and look for health improvement.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in higher amounts. When thiamine is taken in high doses, there's a big change in energy availability, especially in the brain, where pain is registered.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine results in an eighty percent increase in brain function.  Thiamine has analgesic properties.   I learned about high dose thiamine from Dr. Derek Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs through their website hormonesmatter.com.  I have taken high dose thiamine to correct my deficiency about fifteen years ago.  I could feel myself dying, I was so sick and in pain.  I was grasping at straws.  No harm, no foul, just to try it and see, right?  I tried it and that made all the difference.  High dose thiamine made astounding health improvements within a very short period of time for me.  I wonder if 500 mg of thiamine hydrochloride would have the same effect on you.

Have you noticed any side effects from that B-complex?  It is WAY over the daily recommended values: Thanks for your time, Known1

      I'm not sure what you're referring to as "normal" here - and is this something your doctor has mentioned (in bold)? As that isn't what any study or official information says. According to diabetes UK and the British Heart Foundation, normal fasting blood sugar is 4.9-5.4mmol/L. Normal by 2 hours from the start of a meal is anywhere below 7.8mmol/L. Random (more than 2 hours after a meal) should be below 5.6mmol/L.  Not in any study of normoglyceamic individuals does blood sugar go down to less than 5.4mmol/L one hour from the start of a meal, and I don't see such numbers being considered a limit for one hour post prandial in any official definition of normal blood sugar ranges anywhere. It is basically impossible even for the most metabolically healthy individual to have a blood sugar level anything like a fasting number 1 hour only after eating a high carb meal. This is also why medical standards use the 2-hour postprandial value, not 1 hour. Blood sugar normally spikes at about 1 hour after a high carb meal.  For example this study shows that young, healthy normoglycaemic people experience a 1hr peak blood sugar level of about 6.5-7mmol/L before which the 2hr number returns to about 4.7mmol/L, slightly higher than the fasting number of that morning. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2769652/?utm_source=chatgpt.com Even a normal person isn't going to be seeing essentially fasting blood sugar numbers after any meal except for one with 0 carbohdrates contents.

On the contrary, the nerve function from the skin biopsy proved better than normal. I don't get any pins and needles or have any loss of nerve function. It's pain only.  Thiamin I take is 100mg a day in tablet. I used to test blood sugar a lot in the past, and it never correlated directly with the nerve pain. It has only correlated with increased exercise and stress. The after eating getting worse thing happens when the blood flow is directed to the stomach for digestion away from the peripheral areas, which is normal, but central sensitization has caused normal sensations to be turned into pain by the brain, according to the latest doctors, hence whey I am being referred to the pain clinic.
