I can help you out on the gummy worms!!!!! Do you have a walmart near you? There Great Value brand is only 1.00 and it states gluten free on the gummi worms. Watch out for some gummi worms/gummi bears that are not gluten free. One that comes to mind that I found out that is not gluten free comes from the company Brachs? They have a huge bag at sams club that I wanted to buy, but they are not gluten free. So, I stick with walmarts brand :)

Hope I helped you out a little.

I love gummy worms too! I could live on those things! I buy Walmart's Great Value brand because it states Gluten-Free right on the package. As for fast food, lots of places have gluten free menu items. A lot of places will post those items on their websites, but you risk cross contamination. In my opinion, it's not worth the risk to eat fast food.

At Burger King, we get a plain hamburger patty, fries (may or not be safe, depending on where you go), apple fries and a side salad with no dressing.

At Taco Del Mar, we get a Baja Bowl or corn tortilla tacos. All of the meat is safe except for the pork. I believe the fish is breaded. We don't like fish so I never asked about it. The chips and salsa are safe too.

At Taco Time, we get crisp tacos with beef, beans, rice, chips and pico de gallo. I believe the other hot sauce is not safe, but that might be soy and not gluten.

I have yet to see Gummy Worms that are not safe, but some might be cross contaminated. Skittles and Starburst are safe too.

Not Taco Bell. You couldn't pay me to eat there. They put soy in everything. Taco Del Mar and Taco Time are (I think) local chains. I'm in the Pacific Northwest.

There are soy sauces that do not contain wheat, such as San J Tamari Soy Sauce, and another brand (la Choy? have to read the label). But most do contain wheat.

Some of us avoid or don't use much soy at all because of individual reactions, or how soy can depress thyroid function.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      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!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
