Hello!

Just thought I would introduce myself before I got to posting. My name is Lindsay, and I'm 24 years old. I don't suffer from Celiac Disease (that I know of), but it's been recommended to be by more than one person (including one doctor) to start a gluten-free diet (she suggested Casein-free too, but one step at a time!!). I have Lupus, and need to find some way to help myself feel better!

I'll probably ease into a gluten-free diet before going all-out, but I know I am going to need support and help along the way. I'm really hoping this helps me feel better, I'm hoping it stops the tummy aches, the gassyness, and hopefully my migraines, too.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!!

Hi Lindsay :)

Welcome to the board!!! We have lots of people on board...some are Celiacs, some are gluten intolerant, some are family members, and some are just here looking, reading, learning, etc. Hope that you make yourself at home and learn about gluten.

Have you had the blood testing done for Celiac?

Feel free to ask any questions. Best of luck!!!

No, I haven't had a blood test. Right now, I have very crappy insurance, which is better than nothing, but still crappy. Hopefully this will work on, or at least help, my tummy problems.

Thank you for the welcome!

      This is really helpful  I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks for the practical baking tips too color coding and baking G F first makes a lot of sense.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

      Thanks for asking  I’m mainly looking for gluten-free staples and snacks. Any recommendations for brands or go-to items would be appreciated.

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
