Dear kilcan,

Thank you for posting this! Some of these things I did not know we could have! Yay! More options! :) I am really glad I checked out this thread! There is always something you can learn! I have been gluten-free since August of last year.

It is important to me to make it as easy as possible.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

Thanks for this brochure! It's full of great information. I can't get into see my dietician for another month, so I am just plugging along, doing the best I can. I felt great the first week I went gluten free, but haven't felt good since. Not sure if it's part of my healing process, or if I am still getting gluten, or what. Anyway, thanks again!

Thanks

I printed it so I can take it to my Ortho doc on Monday for my foot, hopefully he will see why I want a bone density test, on top of braking my foot for the 3rd time. I am contemplating wheather or not to tell him about me testing negative for celiac disease or just tell him a lie and say that I am and hope that he will take my word for it.

Thanks again

I was reading the list for candy bars and Mars Almond bars were listed. I used to eat these years ago and loved them but I can't find them in the stores anymore. Are these still around? I'm so frustrated. I'm glad they're gluten free.

;)

Thanks for this booklet. Its great.

Dear ginghamkim,

The best advice I can give you is that if you are not sure if something is safe, do not eat it! So many things out there are not labeled clearly. I have a little present for you! I have a list that should really help. This is overwhelming. I went through this with myself eight months ago. You spend most of your day cooking and cleaning obsessively. The rest you are on the phone with reps from companies trying to find out what is safe. I decided to save you the trouble!

1. There are a number of things in the regular grocery that are safe. Some things are labeled already. Wal-Mart's Great Value brand has numerous things you can eat.

2. For the love of God use Coupons on items you are allowed to eat. People can get them and print them out online even. Call some of the local stores and ask if they accept online coupons.

3. Check the ads online and in the newspaper. You would be surprised how many people do not do this.

4. Some items like rice flour and rice noodles are safe to buy at the Chinese or oriental market. The merchants are more than happy to help you if you cannot read the label.

Now, here is my list of great things to get you started:

Condiments:

Smart Balance Margarine*

Crisco Shortening

Crisco Oil

Pompeiian Olive Oil

Great Value soy sauce

Heinz Ketchup

Lea & Perrins Worchestershire Sauce (all Lea & Perrins Products are safe)

Sweet Baby Ray's Barbecue Sauce

Kraft French Fat-Free Salad Dressing

Kraft Thousand Island Fat-Free Salad Dressing

Pace Picante Sauce

Ortega Salsa

All Classico Red and *White sauces

All Jif Peanut Butters including Smooth Sensations

Welch's Grape Jelly

Cool Whip*

Philadelphia Cream Cheese*

Miracle Whip

Daisy Sour Cream (fat-free, low-fat, regular)*

Snack Foods:

Utz Potato Chips (Found at Sam

NoGluGirl,

I have to admit that that is a great starter list. I meant to say it earlier but time ran away from me.

Dear Ed,

Thank you for the compliment! :) I am trying to simplify this for everyone. This can be so stressful. I also found out recently that Brillo Soap Pads are safe. I was so glad! I forgot to add that to the list!

Thank you for taking the time to post this very helpful, why don't they have pamphlets in Dr's office's so people can learn about it and Dr's. They have a lot other pamphlets about other diseases I guess because they can't give a drug for it what do you all think it would bring a lot of awareness to the public. I was talking to this lady yesterday she have never heard of it but goes to the GE doctor every year for her stomach issues and colon because her Mother died at 20 with colon cancer so I was telling her to get checked she goes back in Aug. She said she going to look it up and learn about it.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
