Gluten In Scrambled Eggs Prepared By Restaurant

My office supplied breakfast to us employees yesterday. The selections were home fries, scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage and gluteny biscuits.

I want to concentrate on the scrambled eggs as this restauarant catered the food and the foods were in the aluminum trays over the little burners to keep it warm. When I looked at the scrambled egg tray I noticed that the restaurant had lined the aluminum tray with a "tortila wrap" and I couldn't say if it was a Gluten Free wrap or not. Someone asked the caterer why they did that and the reply was to soak up any water/liquids that comes from the eggs.

So just want to throw this out there to warn all of you so that if you are involved in getting what is conceivably gluten free foods catered, instruct the caterer not to line the pans with a "wrap" or anything else that's full of gluten.

AAAAHHH they mix pancake batter with the egg so it is lighter and more fluffy!!!!!! Whats with that.. so be careful with omelets too!!!

this has nothing to do with eggs, but since we are talking about 'gluten' hiding you won't believe what I saw on the Rachel Rae show on Friday (I think it was)

It was a 'tip of the day people send in as videos'.....

This woman was saying she had the perfect way to keep salads fresh until they are served..make ahead and cover with saran wrap....BUT GET THIS...SHE SAID...."And to keep the salad fresh and to not allow moisture to forum..LAY A SLICE OF BREAD OVER THE SALAD..AND WO-LA-- FRESH AND CRISP EVERYTIME.

SAT with my mouth open and thinking ..my god..what will they think of next ..now we have to ask people if they put a slice of bread on their plain salad greens.

The regular IHOP omelets do indeed contain pancake batter, but you can also order an omelet that does not use that mix.

      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.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      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.
