smoothies, fruit, veggies, tuna, hard boiled eggs, sandwiches with corn tortillas, lettuce wraps. you can buy a pre-cooked chicken (of course check ingredients) and keep it in your fridge to add to salads and stuff. sunshine veggie burgers and ian's chicken nuggets (both microwavable). those rice pouches that you microwave and a can of lentils. you can get a george forman to easily cook meats and veggies without use of the stove and oven. its less heat and less hassle.

what would u put into the sandwichs?? in your personal opinon mango do u think i can handle lunch meats yet?? i have staid away from hotdogs and lunch meats so far because of my stomic.

as for the ians, the only ones i found are breaded so im taking it those are not gluten-free right??

i thought the rice pouchs had really bad cc issuses?

as for smoothies is it safe to use a old blender or do i need a new one?

as for the grill, unfortunatly i had to throw mine away :( i had scraped alot of the tephlon off prior to going gluten free. no money to replace it anytime soon makes me sad that thing was handy

I've never heard of really bad cc issues with the rice pouches. I'm talking about the ones in the freezer section. Only one ingredient: frozen rice.

Did you previously use gluten in your blender? Is it glass? I think you if you can clean it really well it should be okay.

I put organic turkey, lettuce, avocado and mayo in a corn tortilla and roll it up. Conventional lunch meats might be a problem for you if you can't find more natural ones. You can do tuna in a corn tortilla too.

Ians makes a completely allergen free chicken nugget.

If you're worried about the blender maybe you should stay away, or I've seen them for like $15.

Microwave Popcorn

Fruit (there are tons of fruits that are cheap now because they are in season)

Fruit Salads

Tuna Salad

Chicken Salad

Beef Salad (grind up roast beef with mayo, pickle, and onion) Eat with crackers or put on a lettuce leaf

Peanut Butter

Trail Mixes

Amy's Dinners

Nachos......corn chips....bean dip.....guacamole.....mmmm

Corn tortillas filled with beans and guac.

Those are a few that I came up with off the top of my head.......Also you can pick a day to cook a large amount of food and then just eat leftovers. That way you only heat up the house that one time. Tonight I made a large skillet of chicken with rice, beans,peppers, tomoatoes, seasonings, and salsa. It will last me for several days.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
