Ok I have been recently told I need to go back to gluten free/wheat free foods. As a kid I was on this diet but my mom removed me from it because she miss understood the rules. She thought I would out grow it.

She doesn't remember any of the recipes. I need help w/what words to look for on boxes to avoid. I found soy flour and its gluten free. Can I make bread from this w/out using other flours? If so sny recipes for it?

I'm finding it hard to find foods that I can eat.

Any help to make it easy to understand the Dos and don't of Celiac.

I bought store gluten free bread and it was yucky to me...so i bought a bread machine and make my own which is delicious!!! i make it with Pamela's Amazing Wheat Free Bread Mix....can't rave enough about that...that makes delicious french toast or sandwiches....

fresh fruits and veggies are always gluten free- Most meats are naturally gluten free (if they are free of preservatives, if not double check lables) season with fresh herbs.

Protein bars- like organic food bar, or zone perfect, and lara bars are good to keep in your purse or in the pantry for a snack attack.

I make pamelas waffles in bulk and freeze for breakfast (with the baking mix) and also do the recipe for muffins the same way- then add bacon and OJ and there is breakfast....

if you have a whole foods market near you- they should have decent selection of gluten free things to get you jump started if not, check your current supermarket, or find some of your nutritional stores and call to see what they stock, and there is always the internet you can order things from like Amazon, and this site has a grocery section too... Our Kroger and Publix has a small selection of gluten free foods....

check out this list from Ingles supermarket of gluten free foods- most of these are available at any grocery store- just double check your labels....

I hope I doing this right. I havent figured out how to reply.

Thanks for your help. I will have to travel in to a bigger town to find more choices, heck any choices really. I Asked a local baker today if they knew of where I could find rice flour or wheat free /gluten free around here and they looked at me like I was crazy. I have soy flour and I'm going to try to make bread from it. Right now I have got to learn to look close at lables since I am use to just grabbing something to eat.

Hi

That's a bummer that you got away from the diet & now have to relearn how to eat again...

Clan thompson is a good site to get tons of info & of course this site....

A few mainstream things I can think of quickly are :swanson broth,progresso creamy mushroom ,progresso chicken & rice, progresso I think its called corn chowder are gluten-free...Dinty moore beef stew is gluten-free but not the others.Pillsbury frostings are gluten-free.Kraft will list any ingredients that may cause allergies.

Ragu is okay, I use the cheese sauce in the jar to make mac& cheese using BiAglut spirals (noodles). Taste just like Boston Market's......

I alway tell newcomers to start out eating naked foods, then as you learn what's okay add on a couple new things each week ie: spices & toppings...

The recipe section has many things that are very good. We have some very excellent gluten-free cooks on board.I love the soft breadsticks from CarrieFaith & I just posted a recipe for danish that is very easy & tasty.

Bell & evans has gluten-free chicken nuggets in most grocery stores, they have a black label so you can tell them from the reg. ones.I love Anna's bread mix & her pumpkin bread is wonderful....Pamela's has a very good pancake mix.Foods by George has some good products.

You can eat any veggies , fruit or meats just check out if they are coated, marinated or breaded in a non gluten-free product.

I could go on forever but if you want more Please just pm me & I can give you names of some bettergf products.I do alot of mailorder because there is nothing here much gluten-free....plus I travel ours to buy gluten-free supplies..

blessings

It will all fall into place just be patient & don't get overwelmed .....

you can do some shopping online too. www.amazon .com and www.shopbydiet.com are good places to find gluten free food. just type gluten free into the search. you could also buy your own rice and put it through a grain grinder (if you had one).

good luck and glad you found us! lots of good help and recipes here :)

I love "The Gluten Free Gourmet" cookbook. It's got some really good bread and cake recipes.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Celiac getting dentures

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
