Hello From Sweden

Hi!

Just to begin with, you have to be patience with my english. It's not the very best.

I just found this forum. My name is Nina, I'm 34 years old. I live in the northern part of Sweden in a town called Skelleftea with my husband and our son.

It is me in our family that cant eat gluten. I've been eating gluten-free food for 10 years now.

I love to bake and always looking for new recipies. It was when I was looking for that on the internet I found this side :) I almost never buy bread or cookies and things like that. It's better to bake, it's become more tastier then.

I hope I will learn something from you and the other way around.

Best regards

Nina

Hi Nina--welcome to the board! :D

Hi Nina,

I'm an American, but all of my ancestors are from Sweden. My mother's parents spoke Swedish at home, and both my parents grew up in Swedish immigrant communities, so I still feel somewhat tied to that background. (MorFar was from Orebro, but that's all I know.) I live in Minnesota, now, which also has lots of Swedish immigrants and history.

Welcome to the group!

Hi Nina,

I'm glad you found this board.

I agree with you on the baked goods. The gluten free breads, cookies, etc. in the stores are so expensive and not that tasty.

My family is from Stockholm. And my husband wants to move to Malmo. He is even trying to learn a little Swedish. :)

Anyway, welcome!

Gina

Ah! Stockholm and Malmoe. It's a bit from here. Stockholm is about 750 km and Malmoe is about, hmmm... well I think 1500 km from Skelleftea. A daytrip ;)

Hope you know the metric system, I'm not sure how long it's in miles.

I like the southern part of Sweden. It's not that cold there. Here in Skelleftea we can have like -40 celcius during wintertime. Not fun..... I like it when it's +35 celcius.

Well, I've got relatives in USA:) My Granddads (MorFar) cousine lives in Latrobe, Pensylvania. And I think one lives in LA. Last time I heard they lived there :) But I have never been overseas. I really would like to. It's a dream I have. You guys got soooo yummy chocolate..... :wub: I just looove those with peanutbutter. Peanutbutter is my weaknes. And to combine that with chocolate..... oh my! Then I'm in heaven lol.

I think it's good that we can't buy Goobers grape and peanutbutter here in Sweden. I would look like a ballon then......

Well, now I'm gonna look for some yummy recipies. Hmm.. maby something with chocolate ;)

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      The Happy Tart review

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
