If she has a lot of trouble, it's best to stick to unprocessed, naturally gluten-free foods. Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, dried fruits, plain nuts and seeds, and cheese are all naturally gluten-free, healthy snack foods. I love apples and peanut butter. :) For sweets, most good chocolate is naturally gluten-free, or get an ice cream without a lot of ingredients like Breyer's.

The more processing, the more risk of gluten cross-contamination. Larabars, Kind bars, Lay's Stax, and the Nature Valley nut crunch bars (the box is marked gluten-free now) are some processed foods I can tolerate well. Lundburg rice cakes are pretty good and gluten-free, and the Whole Foods brand rice crackers are affordable and haven't give me any problems.

Hi Hollie

A few months after I was diagnosed I discovered these grocery shopping guides. Made my life much easier when shopping.

Gluten-Free Grocery Shopping Guides. Aside from these, our local GIG Celiac Div. has a smaller gluten-free groc. guide that includes a lot of local items, so you may look for a local Celiac Chapter in your area.

There another out that can also be downloaded to your PDA device, etc., by Clan Thompson.

I bought the Cecilas guide, it was about $25 and worth every dollar. Put an end to standing in the aisle and reading packages!

Many grocery stores and food manufacturers (Kraft, Hormel etc) now have their own gluten free product lists as well, some online and some will mail you list.

Here is a link to Gluten Intolerance Group NA's page where you can search for certified gluten free items:

What about things that are naturally gluten free? Like fresh vegetables and fruit, nuts and seeds.

      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...

      The Happy Tart review

      By Francis M · Posted

      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 had a systems problem around that time.

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
