Hi,

Does anyone know of frozen low fat entrees such as Lean Cuisine, Healthy Choice, or Weight Watchers that are gluten free? I am so tired of cooking all the time and would love to have some easy stuff in the freezer.

Thanks!!

Mary

Open Original Shared Link offers a gluten free selection of frozen dinners. It is clearly marked on the boxes "Gluten Free". They are really good, but sort of expensive (such as with anything that is gluten free). I LOVE their cheese enchiladas and the cheese pizza. I fry some hamburger, onions, green peppers and top the pizza with that and some extra cheese YUM! All the frozen dinners are good.

Mary, You could also try freezing single servings of the meals you do cook. They would be much healthier and you can be sure they are gluten-free. Just cook twice what you normally cook and freeze half. This will cut down on a lot of cooking. I find ziploc freezer bags come in very handy! :D

God bless,

Mary:

I don't think any of those will be gluten-free. However AMY's Organic carries a great line of gluten-free frozen foods and they are clearly marked gluten-free, Dairy Free, etc...

I hope this helps.... :rolleyes:

One option is to just cook larger portions and put some of it in the freezer. (My mother-in-law, not gluten-free, does this every weekend.)

Hi. Does anyone know if Amy's is still considered a good source for gluten-free frozen dishes? I like(d) the Mexican Casserole and the Enchiladas. But I've tried the Mex. Casserole since eliminating gluten (upon diagnosis), and didn't feel well afterward. The packaging no longer says "gluten-free", but rather "no gluten ingredients". It also states that it's prepared at a facility that processes wheat. So therin lies the answer i guess, but why would Amy's take steps backward regarding gluten?

I'd like to know if anyone out there can eat Amy's nowadays, and that maybe I reacted to something else. Thanks!

TPFX, If you use the google function in the upper right corner, you will find more up- to- date info on people's opinions on Amy's.

Please note: The info in this post is out- dated and may not be correct at this time.

      Help figuring out stomach pain

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, My 3 year old was diagnosed a couple months ago. We went gluten free, very strict, and everything improved. Energy, no more meltdowns, bad rash is mostly gone. She's doing great. Except she complains every day of stomach pain. She describes it as squeezing. Any ideas from anyone?  We cut out oats and it didn't make any difference. She doesn't drink milk, though she has cheese. It doesn't seem to coincide with the cheese. She says it hurts when she wakes and then other random times during the day.  We are SO strict with her food. We don't eat out, out whole house is gluten-free. I make everything from scratch. She eats very healthy. She's not picky and we do tons of fruit, veggies, meat, etc. we don't do a lot of processed food.

      Still unsure.....

      Ok so I couldn't find the thiamine you suggested but I was able to buy a bottle of 'standard' thiamine (100 mg). Should I just try half a tablet to see if I notice any difference? If it turns out it does have effect I can always buy the more expensive stuff. Or is that not a smart idea?

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      @cristiana, Yes, I found high carbohydrate meals would trigger mine as well.  I learned from Dr. Lonsdale that high carbohydrate diets can deplete thiamine.  Heart palpitations are a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Diets high in refined simple carbohydrates (empty calories) need additional Thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  The more carbs one eats, the more Thiamine is required to process the additional calories.  500 mg more Thiamine is required for every additional one thousand calories.  This is named "High Calorie Malnutrition."  Sufficient calories are being consumed, but not enough of thiamine to burn the carbs for energy.  Instead to ration out the small supply of thiamine, the additional calories are stored as fat.  It takes less thiamine to burn fat than to burn carbs.    Do read Dr. Lonsdale' article here... Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I used to suffer with migraines, but I have rarely had one since I started taking additional Thiamine.  The form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) can improve neurological functions in the brain.  Benfotiamine is another form that improves migraines. Look at the label on your B Complex vitamins.  It should tell you what form of thiamine is in it.  If it says thiamine mononitrate, you're probably not getting sufficient thiamine.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form used in vitamin supplements and foods because it is shelf stable.  Shelf stable means it won't break down when exposed to heat and light sitting on a shelf waiting to be bought in a store or warehouse.  It also is very difficult for the body to break it down and utilize it.  Only about thirty percent of the amount of thiamine mononitrate on the label is absorbed.   Do take a look at Dr. Lonsdale and Dr. Marrs' website hormonesmatter.com.  Dr. Lonsdale has done much research on Thiamine.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      @DebJ14 The Spectracell Test for Micronutrient Deficiencies tests  intracellular levels of the nutrients INSIDE Leukocytes (white blood cells) which are in the bloodstream.  This still is not reflective of current stored vitamin levels inside organs.   The genetic MTHFR mutation does occur frequently with Celiac Disease.  Taking the methylated (activated) forms of the B vitamins is necessary.   A good multivitamin may not be sufficient to correct deficiencies.  Malabsorption due to the intestinal damage of Celiac Disease may prolong deficiency states.  Vitamin deficiencies need to be corrected quickly to prevent long-term problems.  Taking a B Complex twice a day increases absorption.  Taking a multivitamin as well is fine as multivitamins usually also contain some necessary minerals.
