Hi, this is my first time on the forum as well as my first year with glutenfreeitus as I call it. (celiac, jk) It is getting extremely hot and I have no school and I was wondering if you know of any sleepover and hot summer day foods. I am living off of fruitand meat and other stuff, none of it junk food except for the occasional hershey bar and swedish fish and my friends don't like it. please help my playdates!! :lol: O and if anyone has some good corndog recipes that are easy cuz I stink at cooking that would be great, too!! thanks in advance!!

LUV,

Lightningfoot of FireClan

Hi! I totally understand. This is a sample of what we snack on:

Cheetos

Nachos (Tostitos tortilla chips, Velveeta cheese and a little gluten free salsa - there are lots)

Lays Naturals Doritos

Lays Naturals Sea Salt Potato Chips

Gluten Free Pantry Brownies

Kinnickinnik Cupcakes

Haagendaz chocolate covered vanilla ice cream bars

P.S. Some here don't eat Lays products because they feel there could be a risk of cross contamination since Lays does not have production lines dedicated gluten free. However, we've never had a problem.

My favorite corn dog is Oscar Meyer hot dogs covered with Chebe bread mix. It tastes great. It was a recommendation from some genius on this forum. But someone just posted a few days ago about a gluten free corn dog they tasted and loved. I think it was called S'Better Farms, or something like that! Worth looking into.

Anyway, there are so many good gluten free snacks out there. Hope you enjoy your summer!

Hi: I have spent a lot of time contacting manufacturers about gluten free products and have kept all my findings. Kraft is one of the best--if you contact them they will send you a gluten free product list--they have a lot of great stuff that is gluten-free. I also tried the makers of chips etc :rolleyes: and Ruffles Rippled plain chips are my favorite--it's great to have munchies again :P I live in Canada and you could check out the Celiac Canada website as it list a bunch of gluten free products by manufacturer. Good Luck:)

I don't live in Canada, so please keep in mind that some of this stuff might not be available there. For sleepovers you could do Amy's rice crust pizza. Some on here have had problems with it, but others eat it regularly with no problems. I'm one of those who love it and eat it all the time with no problems. You could do popcorn too, some brands are gluten free, or you could just do air popped with fresh butter or margarine. Rice Krispy treats (w/ gluten free rice krispies) are always a hit. Pinwheels (Seltzer's sweet balogna wrapped around cream cheese), cheese cubes, veggies with Kraft ranch dressing for dipping, apples and peanut butter, gluten free cookies, gluten free crackers, Glutano crisp bread with peanut butter or chicken salad, rice cakes (peanut butter and honey is great on those), and nachos (corn tortilla chips with melted cheddar cheese) all make great snacks.

Are Cheetos gluten free?

Are Cheetos gluten free?

yes they are, but they are not produced on a dedicated line like the Lay's Stax are, so there is a small risk of cross contamination IF they don't remember to use stringent cleaning policies between batches. I personally have gotten ill from the, but I know a lot of people eat them.

I snack on lots of fruit, fruit leather, nachos, coconut macaroons, yogurt, popcorn, Enjoy Life cookies or cereal bars, and so on... hope that gives you some ideas.

I eat the baked cheetos (taste the same for me) and don't have a problem. Also try dill pickles wrapped in a slice of turkey or ham lunchmeat w/cream cheese spread on it. Sounds funny but it's good! Or when I don't have the cream cheese I just take a slice of turkey, a slice of regular kraft cheese, and wrap it around a pickle - my "sandwhich". Also try the turkey or ham and cream cheese wrapped around green onion - great little appetizer to take to a picnic.

cracker jacks and other caramel corn mixes (fiddle faddle, etc.) are gluten-free too

I have finally found someone else who makes pickle wraps! :D

There are so many gluten free junk foods. Did you get a copy of the delphi gluten free food list? If not someone here or I can send you a copy. Just PM your e-mail address.

      Is this celiac?

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 1...

      Fiber Supplement

      @Trish G, I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well. But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small...

      @kpf, Were you eating ten grams or more of gluten daily in the month preceding your antibody blood tests? TTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines. Ten grams of gluten per day for several weeks before testing is required to provoke sufficient antibody production for the antibodies to leave the intestines and enter the blood stream and be measured...

      Fiber Supplement

      Thanks, I'm not a big fan of prunes but did add them back after stopping the Benefiber. Hoping for the best while I wait to hear back from Nutritionist for a different fiber supplement. Thanks again

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

      Is this celiac?

      By Hmart · Posted

      Hello again. Thank you for the responses to date. I have had several follow-ups and wanted to share what I’ve learned. About a month after my initial blood test and going gluten free, my TtG went from 8.1 to 1.8. I have learned that my copper is low and my B6 is high. My other vitamins and nutrients are more or less in range. After I glutened myself on 10/24, I have been strict about being gluten free - so about a month. I have been eating dairy free and low FODMAP as well because it’s what my stomach allows. Baked fish, potatoes, rice, etc. Whole foods and limited Whole foods. I have continued to lose weight but it has slowed down, but a total of about 15 pounds since I went gluten free. Along with stomach pain, my symptoms included nausea, body and joint pain, a burning sensation throughout my body and heart rate spikes. I still have them but I have them less now. These are the symptoms that led to my doctor appointments and subsequent diagnosis. I also did the DNA screening and was positive. So, at this point, the answer is yes, I have celiac. I have two questions for this group. Any ideas on why my enteropathy was so severe (marsh 3B) and my TtG was so minimal? Is that common? Or are there other things to consider with that combo? And this recovery, still having pain and other symptoms a month later (7 weeks gluten free and 4 weeks after the glutening) normal? I’m going to continue down this path of bland foods and trying to heal but would love to understand the reasons for the long journey. I read so much about people who stop eating gluten and feel amazing. I wish that was my experience but it certainly hasn’t been. Thank you again!

      @Trish G,  I like dates, they have lots if fiber as well.  But what I found helped most was taking Thiamine (in the form Benfotiamine which helps promote intestinal healing), Pyridoxine B 6, Riboflavin B 2, and magnesium, and Omega Three fats. The absorption of nutrients is affected by Celiac disease which damages the intestinal lining of the small intestines where our nutrients are absorbed.  If you have constipation, where your body is rather pushing your food away and not interacting with it, the nutrients in the food are not being released and absorbed.  You can develop deficiencies in all the vitamins and minerals necessary for the body to function properly.   The B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished daily.  Thiamine B 1 stores can run out in as little as three days.  Constipation (or diarrhea or alternating) is one of the first symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine needs magnesium, Pyridoxine B 6, and Riboflavin B 2 to make the intestinal tract function.  Thiamine and Niacin make digestive enzymes.  Thiamine provides the energy for nerve impulses to carry messages to the brain and back about digestion.  Thiamine provides the energy for the muscle contractions which move your food through the digestive tract. High calorie meals containing lots of starches and sugars can deplete thiamine stores quickly because more thiamine is required to turn them into energy.   Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements?  Correction of malnutrition is very important in Celiac disease.  Thiamine, the other B vitamins and magnesium will help with constipation better than adding more fiber.  What did your nutritionist recommend you take, besides just the fiber? The association between dietary vitamin B1 intake and constipation: a population-based study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11100033/ Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Association between dietary vitamin B6 intake and constipation: a population-based study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11584952/

      @kpf, Were you eating ten grams or more of gluten daily in the month preceding your antibody blood tests? TTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  Ten grams of gluten per day for several weeks before testing is required to provoke sufficient antibody production for the antibodies to leave the intestines and enter the blood stream and be measured in blood tests. If you had already gone gluten free or if you had lowered your consumption of gluten before testing, your results will be inaccurate and inconclusive.   See link below on gluten challenge guidelines. Have you had any genetic testing done to see if you carry genes for Celiac disease?  If you don't have genes for Celiac, look elsewhere for a diagnosis.  But if you have Celiac genes, you cannot rule out Celiac disease. You mentioned in another post that you are vegetarian.  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  The best sources of the eight essential B vitamins are found in meats.  Do you supplement any of the B vitamins as a vegetarian? Deficiency in Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is strongly associated with anemia which can cause false negatives on antibody tests.  Fatigue, numbness or tingling in extremities, difficulty with coordination, headaches and anemia are strongly associated with thiamine deficiency.  Other B vitamins that contribute to those symptoms are Riboflavin B 2, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9 and B12 Cobalamine.  The eight B vitamins all work together with minerals like magnesium and iron.  So your symptoms are indicative of B vitamin deficiencies.  You can develop vitamin and mineral deficiencies just being a vegetarian and not eating good sources of B vitamins like meat.  B vitamin deficiencies are found in Celiac due to the malabsorption of nutrients because the lining of the intestines gets damaged by the antibodies produced in response to gluten.
