My breastfed baby is sensitive to gluten (mad eczema) and corn.

Skin prick positive to egg.

So, I'm headed to the store to get some basics with which to bake.

I know nothing. I need xanthum gum, right? What else?!

Remember, I'm just starting out, so just basics until I can start researching a gluten-free diet.

I would stick with basic,easy and naturally gluten-free until you get to know the diet...things like fresh meat,veggies, fruit ect.

You need xanthan gum IF you are going to be baking...bread,cookies ect.

I took the above list with me every time I went grocery shoppping for awhile so I didn't pull my hair out over ingredients!

I would stick to:

fresh, frozen, and canned fruits and veggies

Hormell Chili (or make your own. Let me know if you want my recipe)

peanut butter (to dip fruit in for breakfast)

plain yogurt (flavor with brown sugar and raisins. I believe Yoplait may label theirs as gluten free)

cheese

plain meats and fish

McCormick seasonings

rice-- very easy to cook

If you need any recipes or meal ideas, let me know. I rarely eat eggs and most of my recipes are corn free as well.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
