Thankyou And Garden Of Life Products

Thankyou so much for the encouragement. I truly appreciate the time you have taken to care about me!

Yesterday I had a better day. Even one good day is a blessing! Because of stomach upset I rarely take vitamins. But when I was visiting in the States I bought Garden of Life probiotic formula and digestive enzymes. But then I read they have Barleygrass and Oatgrass. Is that ok? I hate to waste them, but I`m nervous about taking them. And is there a good vitamin/mineral supplement that is easy on the stomach? also is it the lactose in dairy that causes the problems? Is lactose free milk ok to drink? Hey, guess what I found yesterday? Some Nature`s Path products! I found gluten free animal cookies and gorilla munch cereal! How fun is that? I don´t eat alot of sweets, but it`s nice to have in case of a craving. I couldn´t believe it when I saw them. That`s what I call heaven`s kisses. THey are the little things in life that make you smile and you know God is with you.

Thanks again to all!

Blessing, Kristen

Do you have someone you can give your Garden of Life products to? You can't take them ... at one point they were the "hidden" gluten in my life and once I eliminated them I started getting better.

I like Wild Oats brand vitamins because they're clearly labeled gluten free and dairy free (if they are gluten and dairy free).

Some of us are sensitive to the casein rather than the lactose. It all depends on what you have a problem with if the lactose free milk will bother you.

That barley grass was a problem for me. Technically, the grass part of the plant doesn't have gluten, only the grain. BUT, with harvesting and all there's always some seed that gets into the mix, so it's not pure grass. I should think that the same problem pertains to oat grass and wheat grass.

I can't tell you how many products I have given/thrown away as I learned more and more how to find hidden gluten. I use many Wild Oats brand supplements purely because of their labeling. They list all the things the product does not contain.

I thought that greens mixes with wheat and barley grass were ok, since there is no gluten in the grasses?? That is the info I have read. Could someone clarify??

      They both do.  The peanuts add nutrients to the treat. Tootsie Roll: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Palm Oil, Condensed Skim Milk, Cocoa, Whey, Soy Lecithin, Artificial and Natural Flavors. M&M Peanut: milk chocolate (sugar, chocolate, skim milk, cocoa butter, lactose, milkfat, peanuts, soy lecithin, salt, natural flavor), peanuts, sugar, cornstarch; less than 1% of: palm oil, corn syrup, dextrin, colors (includes blue 2 lake, blue 1 lake, red 40, yellow 6 lake, yellow 5, yellow 6, blue 1, yelskim milk contains caseinlow 5 lake, blue 2, red 40 lake), carnauba wax, gum acacia. glycemic index of Tootsie Rolls ~83 gycemic index of M&M Peanuts ~33   The composition of non-fat solids of skim milk is: 52.15% lactose, 38.71% protein (31.18% casein, 7.53% whey protein), 1.08% fat, and 8.06% ash.   https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/9781118810279.ch04  Milkfat carries the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. The solids-not-fat portion [of milk] consists of protein (primarily casein and lactalbumin), carbohydrates (primarily lactose), and minerals (including calcium and phosphorus). https://ansc.umd.edu/sites/ansc.umd.edu/files/files/documents/Extension/Milk-Definitions.pdf

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets for disability because I show no signs of celiac BECAUSE IM GLUTENFREE! Actively dealing with sibo and skin issues.Depression is the key because thats all they know, im depressed because medical has caused it because of my celiac and related issues. I should have never ever been employed as a bus driver.After 3 years still healing and ZERO income desperately trying to get better but no careteam for celiac other than stay away frim wheat! Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values.  Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.  I use them as a gluten free substitute for a peanut butter sandwich.  Try her on grass fed, pasture fed milk. While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

      I see it everyday on my feeds.  They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts.  I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
