I found this link and thought I'd share.

Open Original Shared Link :o

By David Zinczenko, editor-in-chief of Men's Health and author of Eat This, Not That

Just a few clues in case you ever wondered why America has become so fat and unhealthy . . . . :angry:

This might also make you feel better about not wanting to eat out. Your inner excuse is cross-contamination. Your excuse you give people is info like this. And ask them why they want to eat this stuff! :ph34r:

Yuck.

Thanks for the link.. that was a fascinating read. I'm in Texas, so there is no hope of forcing places here to provide that data.

On the bright side, most of this doesn't apply to us. Pecan Chicken Crusted Salad? Sounds like it has gluten. Mozzarella sticks? Totally breaded.

And any place that won't disclose nutritional info, including ingredients, Celiacs shouldn't want to patronize anyway. ;)

I think it a no-brainer that anything consumed at those restaurants would not be good for you, even without the nutritional information.

Portion sizes are so big, it's ridiculous. Being diagnosed with celiac disease is actually a good thing as it prevents most people that follow the diet from even thinking of eating there. I don't know why there is all this discussion about what is causing obesity in this country.....too much food and too little movement.

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      By Katerific · Posted

      I was diagnosed with microscopic colitis and celiac a couple of years ago.  The GI doctor prescribed a course of budesonide, which moderately helped until I tapered off.    After a lot of ups and downs over the course of 2 years, I am finally in microscopic colitis remission.  Since I am also diabetic, I was started on metformin and Jardiance.  Metformin by itself helped moderately.  I added Jardiance and I was much better.  I stopped the metformin and relapsed and when I added it back, I regained remission.  I think metformin and Jardiance helped my colitis because they reduce inflammation in the gut.  Metformin is known to favorably modulate the gut microbiome and reduce inflammatory cytokines.  Similarly, emerging evidence supports the anti-inflammatory properties of SGLT2 inhibitors like Jardiance.  Once I was on both, the diarrhea stopped completely, even though nothing else ever worked long-term.  There is a Facebook group that can be very informative and helpful.  Look for "Microscopic Colitis and Lymphocytic Colitis Support Group.  You will find that members of the Facebook group identify other pathways to remission of microscopic colitis.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Mrs Wolfe, I crushed three vertebrae moving a chest of drawers.  I take a combination of Thiamine Vitamin B1, Vitamin B12, and Pyridoxine B6.  Together these vitamins have an analgesic effect.  I think it works better than OTC pain relievers.   I also like  "Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets" .   It's all three vitamins together in one pill.  Works wonderfully!

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      It's the Potassium Iodide in the HRT pills that is triggering Dermatitis Herpetiformis and the increased IGG levels.   The thyroid is stimulated by the Potassium Iodide, which stimulates immune cells to make more IGG antibodies.   Thiamine Vitamin B1 helps the thyroid function.  I like Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax.
