I'm going to try this again. I think the original might have gotten bumped-someone thinking I was running a biz or something-NOT TRUE. I often, informally and for free, conduct gluten-free baking classes in my home, which has a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. I will be doing so again for the holidays. I will be demonstrating maple-pecan pumpkin pie, spicy pumpkin bread, sage stuffing and garlic croutons for Thanksgiving and date-nut bread, cheesecake and rolled sugar cookies.

If you live in the area and are interested (or if you want to fly in-I had 1 person do that once;coordinated a visit with a demonstration) let me know what dates you would be available and I will be happy to include you. Weekdays/nights are best but Saturday is ok. We always end up with new people as the number of people being diagnosed grows each day.

God's blessings to you and all those you hold dear!

So you are offering a free service? You are letting folks come into your home, bake for free provide all ingredients for free? There is absolutely no catch? You don't sell anything at all?

Congrats to you if this is the case :) It sounds like a fun idea.

I don't think if its free or not has any bearing on this the rule states explicitly

Do not promote your own business, Web site or products.

And when I asked specifically this includes FREE, non commercial and charities as well. Apparently the important word is your.... not business ????

I guess the question is whether this is a product????

Yes, it is free and yes, I provide the ingredients unless someone wants to make their own to take home with them. And no, I do not have a business, and this is not a product as it is only information. I'm not promoting anything or selling anything at all. My extended family are extremely picky eaters and I know what it is like to try and deal with your meal being different than everyone else's and watching them get to eat all the "good stuff" (pies, rolls, cakes etc). Last Thanksgiving, my entire family was at my house for dinner and my kitchen is exclusively gluten-free-if they want to eat here, they eat my way. My mom asked me to make the dinner rolls one more time for her, (the ones that I made for the dinner) and my dad said he really liked the pies. That is all that I am trying to share-that feeling that life is once again ok. That you can eat a meal with everyone else and everyone can enjoy it. No gimmicks, no strings, no catches. I have a large kitchen and I enjoy baking (cheaper than a therapist)-that's it.

Would you mind posting your recipe for the dinner rolls? My kids really miss the gluten rolls. They snubbed my gluten-free ones last year. I thought they were good!

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.
    • Ginger38
      I’m 43, just newly diagnosed with a horrible case of shingles last week . They are all over my face , around my eye, ear , all in my scalp. Lymph nodes are a mess. Ear is a mess. My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion

      There were some interesting talks, particularly Prof Ludvig Stollid's talk on therapeutics for coeliac disease.    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRcl2mPE0WdigRtJPvylUJbkCx263KF_t

      Thank you @trents for letting me know you experience something similar thanks @knitty kitty for your response and resources.  I will be following up with my doctor about these results and I’ll read the articles you sent. Thanks - I really appreciate you all.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!
