Oh, I see, cool. I thought there would be some simple meaning behind it, but I didn't know what it was . Thanx for answering.

Nobody's asking me to do anything, but I'm inserting all the "emoctions" anyway, lol

When in doubt, check the forbidden list: https://www.celiac.com/st_prod.html?p_prodi...-46105547579.c5

or the safe list: https://www.celiac.com/st_prod.html?p_prodi...-46105547579.c5

and if you are searching for something, do ctrl and f, pulling up a "find" box. Then you can type in the word you're looking for and if you're not sure of the spelling, just do, for example, "soy L"

I don't have all those smilies as an option, like the bashful one with hearts above its head and the sleepy one. Do you have to do something special to get those?

Carrie, at the bottom of the emoticon box there is a Show All option. Click on that and it will open up the whole box in a separate window. :)

I am 11 and very new to this whole thing. Don't know if I have celiac disease, just had a blood test and it takes 2 weeks to come back. My mom tested negative but can't eat anything with gluten in it. I feel the same way she does when I eat it. So I will probably never eat it again even if the test is negative. It is nice to know there are other kids like me. :P . Most kids dont understand. It is hard when someone offers me something I can't eat but want to :(

Were you gluten free at the time of testing? If you were not on gluten then the results may not come back right. I am glad that you feel better on the diet so you should continue to stick to it. There is so much stuff that you can have that your friends can have too so it won't be as hard when you get used to it and find things :D

Not a teenager ( :o since too long to mention) and my son Ty who was just diagnosed with celiac disease won't be a teenager for almost 7 years!

I'm just posting to say there are young celiac disease kids out there, we don't know any of them though ;)

I'm 10 but i'm almost 11. My mom can't have gluten and neither can my sister. I got tested and the results haven't come back yet but i can't eat anything with gluten in it for the time being :( . i hate it cause half the things i eat have gluten in them and i luv them soo much. I have been feeling better since ive stopped eating it. One of my symtoms was gas. Sometimes it was so painful i had to stay home from school. I had diarrhea with it and was doubled over when it was really bad. But since i went gluten-free i havent had any gas! I ws wondering do any of u guys have the same symptoms as me? Or any other symptoms...

Absolutely. As your intestines heal they become more sensitive to gluten...and are less accustomed to it, yielding a more painful reaction when you do accidentally ingest gluten.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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!

      By trents · Posted

      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
