Would like to get an idea of those that would be interested in starting a support group in the area for surrounding towns? Chelmsford, Westford, Lowell, Billerica, Bedford, Nashua and so many more ......

All ideas and suggestions would also be helpful for creating and running such a group.

How to get printed information donated, centralized meeting place that would be free to use, special speakers, maybe cooking/baking classes....

So many questions not yet thought of.

I'm new to my own personal experience, but have watched and listened to my mother and what she goes thru for the past 17 years. I'm just glad to have found out early, she unfortunately had progressed quite far before being diagonsed. Even now - the slightest thing affects her, she is also lactose intolerant.

Hi All

You can count me in. I live in Bedford, MA

I can look into getting the meeting room at Middlesex Bank in Bedford, for no charge.

Keep me posted,

Laura

Hi,

My name is Bev and I would also be interested in forming a new support group. I am located in Manchester NH, but travel to MA for work. Have heard other support groups are useful for sharing resources (ie: the multitude of cook books and references that are important during those first few months) and for being able to buy in bulk to offset the costs of some of the gluten free items.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      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.

      suggest gluten free food

      By olivia11 · Posted

      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.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      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.
