Thankfully, I don't seem to have a problem with rice!

I'll look for the quaker brand. The ones in the "health food" section of the grocery store were $4.99. The brown rice ones were $5.99. A bit steep I thought! :o

The ones at Aldi were $1.29. a big difference.

Whew! That is expensive. I'd definitely check Quaker rice cakes at Wal-Mart if you have one near you. Or even another local grocery store should have them for under $3.00. Just be aware that the small size ones may not have the gluten-free label.

I completly understand the whole foods concept..but sometimes (actually most of the time) I just want to grab something and munch without cooking. I get tired of just fruits..or carrots, cucumbers etc., for snacks. I like crispy/crunchy things. I thought rice cakes were the perfect munchable thing? The ones I have were bought at Aldi's grocery and are their generic brand. I guess I need to buy the ones that are 4 times the price, but safe? :(

Just contact the manufacturer of the rice cakes you like and find out whether they think there is gluten CC. I eat Lundburg all the time and I think they taste better than the white rice cakes anyway.

I eat a lot of nuts for snacks if I'm not in the mood for fruits or veggies.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      Natural remedies

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
