So I went shopping at trader Joes yesterday.......I am new to this gluten free diet......They have a list of gluten free stuff which makes it easier for you to shop......So I got a few breads, pastas, cereals and such.....The mac and cheese is so yummy!!! I was looking for a chocolate cookie but they didnt seem to have any so I asked someone who worked there.....He said they had a flourless chocolate cake which is phenominal!! I need my chocolate fix lol

So I was reading the ingredients and after all the ingredients it says it is made on equiptment shared with wheat and nuts!!! I am a little hesitant in eating it again......What do you think?

Welcome, and I have to say what a beautiful picture on your profile.

Shared equipment is a trial and error. Some very sensitive may have issues, and others not. In the beginning of the diet, I would recommend that you not, just to expedite healing.

Once some healing has taken place, you can slowly add things to your diet and be aware of a reaction.

I get the chocolate flourless cake all the time. I haven't had any issues. Like she said it can be trial and error. But so far it has been good! And yes it is delicous. It is similar to the chocholate flourless domes at P.F.Changs. Just a little desnser.

I agree with Mamma Gooses' advice and I would also ask you if when you do consume gluten are you symptomatic? If you are then it will be easier for you to tell if food items produced on equipment that also is used to process wheat items is giving you a Celiac reaction. If not, well, you are just guessing.

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
