Good morning and thanks! Midel and Kinnickknick- yeah! Do you have to order the Kinnick stuff only by mail? I went to their website and shipping was horrible! :o I haven't found it in any stores that I've been to. Just wondering.

Nope...I have Kinnikinick bread in my health food stores. You may need to order by mail for donuts and the like, or ask your local health food store if they could carry some Kinnikinick products for you. One health food store near me orders larger quantities of certain products, knowing that I'll buy a lot :lol:

It seems all the detectives here hit it on the head..I reconfirm with the above posts that Mi-Del makes the oreo and that Kinnickinick makes the doughnuts..

There is another issue raised here concerning overeating and I like tarnalbarry's suggestion..

Another one is this concerning mixing any fiber powder and water..

If you read the instructions they tell you to mix the fiber with 8 ounces of water.

Then they proceed to tell you that you need to throw down an additional 8 glasses of water over the course of the day to make the fiber work....

That is just dead wrong and the instructions are dropping a subtle hint what to do instead..

Remember that fiber expands in water BUT fiber congeals with saliva and gastric juices..If the fiber goes down while any food is in the stomach with just 8 ounces of water, congealing will dominate..

This was actually proven in the automotive industry. ARCO graphite was supposed to be the ultimate lubricant for autos since graphite exists in the pump os every kitchen fridge..The problem with that is that your freezer's compressor turns on and off with shorter rest periods than an auto. Autos are more like a stomach, changing temperature of things coming in which are changing them in return and resting for longer intervals of time. This caused the graphite filings to congeal and plug up ports in cars, ruining engines..The same thing happens to the human gut.

Once congealed, the fiber will not be able to be mixed in your blender or with any spoon since it is in the gut. The inner part of the clumps formed become more sealed into position by additional water and the fibers on the inside of the clumps cannot get any water to expand since they are now suffocated.

To solve the problem you mix the powder with about 1 to 2 quarts of water and take in a little throughout the day, restirring or reblending each time that you do.

Appetite should drop and the fiber should expand properly.

There is a gluten-free intestinal rejuvination powder called RevitalX..

I get the Kinnikinick stuff at my local co-op health food store too... they are also more than willing to special order large quantities if I want them to.

I have had Glutinos and Mi-dels "oreo" type cookies. Both are really good!!

I went through the stage of "eating everything I could" because I COULD!! It is hard to get past that point and back to just eating normal again. SO hard when you are "deprived" not to just pig out on what you can eat and what is SO good!!!

Hang in there... it will happen eventually!! I have learned to not keep goodies in the house ~ because I eat them! ;)

P.S. What is the brand of those yummy doughnuts?? :D

I just tried last week the Kinnickinnick Blue Berry Muffins and the Cinnamon Rolls and boy they were so good - I really couldn't taste the difference.

I don't even want to FIND gluten-free goodies on the shelves!!

I totally agree with you. Since starting this, i have eaten nothing but bad things. No matter how hard I try not to, I can always find a way to justify the potato chips or the candy bar. My family can go ahead and eat a roll, i will just have extra ice cream, stuff like that.

I tried some great gluten-free cookies and was almost unhappy that they were gluten-free.

Hope that helps!! You can also get the cookies at your local health food store if you are near one. I am not, so I order on-line!

      Oral thrush question

      Hi Everyone, I do appreciate your replies to my original post. Here is where I am now in this journey. I am currently seeing a Naturopath. One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD. My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow. She has put me on some digestive enzymes...

      Oral thrush question

      Hi @JulieRe. I just found your post. It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida. I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment. In the meantime, I have been working with a functional...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct r...

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
