Hello!

My name is Christian, a male from New York City. As I was reading here I realized I'm not really a teenager (I'm 20), but I guess close enough. I've been gluten-free since January and a vegetarian since 2000. Just wanted to say hi to you all...I'll be posting and reading a lot :)

Say hi!

Christian

Hey Christian,Welcome to the board! Don't worry, there are a couple of us that post on the Teenager board that aren't necessarily considered teenagers. My name is Emily, I'm 19 years old and was diagnosed about 2 years ago. I'm from Kansas, but I'm currently going to school in Idaho. This is great forum with really responsive and helpful people, so post away :D

Thank you so much!

I have so many questions and stuff but like, I don't know where to start or what I should say about myself?

These boards seem really cool, and I'm so happy to have found others to talk to.

Hi,

Welcome to the board. This is a really great spot to get support, as well as build on your knowledge. In February of this year, on the 17th, I guess, I came here with no knowledge of celiac disease....I find it amazing to look back on how much I've learned over the months without realizing it. I'm sure you'll find the board as helpful as we all have....and maybe you'll even make a few friends here...I know many of us do. :) Just post your questions and we'll start answering.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By yellowstone · Posted

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
