I am new here, recently diagnosed. I was wondering what brand of gluten free corn meal mix you would suggest. My husband (Tennessee born and bred lol) loves beans and corn bread and I am hoping I can find a gluten free brand that both of us can enjoy (Hubby does not have celica disease).

Thanks!

Tanya

Oh...I want to share my Aw Ha moment from this morning. I am standing in the bedroom putting on my socks and shoes and I don't have to "hold" on to the bed post like I always did before or I would loose my balance. Then it hit me. I had read on here about one problem with celiac disease was balance issues. It seems like in less then 2 weeks my balance is already getting better.

And I got on the scale this morning and have already lost almost 5 pounds in less then 2 weeks :) woo hoo !!!!

Thanks everyone for all your great posts and information. You are going to make this journey to a healthier happier me so much easier.

Glad to hear you're feeling better already!

I just made Bob's Red Mill G.F. Cornbread Mix tonight and it was delicious!!! You won't be able to tell a difference.

As long as you are not sensitive to oats Bob's Red Mill is a good one. There isn't any oats in the mix but it is processed in the same plant. I get the corn flour rather than the corn bread mix as I don't like sorghum which is in the mix.

Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Cornbread is fantastic!! I love my beans and cornbread, too, so I was pleasantly suprised to find a good mix! IT's really easy to make, too!

P.S. Where in TN is your hubby from? I lived in Memphis for 10 years....still miss that place (especially during the long Chicago winters)! :(

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Unfortunately not going to be able to let you know how Amneal is working because I still have almost 3 month supply of Mylan.  Had annual appointment with endocrinologist last week (though get scripts for blood work more often) and since was on my last refill, she sent new script to pharmacist.  Staying on my Mylan until it's gone.  (I tend to build up a supply because after trying a couple of endocrinologists for my Hashimotos, one finally got my thyroid regulated by my taking only six days a week instead of adjusting the strength which had me constantly up and down.  Will be forever grateful to her.  Apparently high percentage of folks with Celiac also have Hashimotos so all this relevant/helpful on Celiac.com.

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By KimMS · Posted

      Thanks for sharing this! Have you started taking the Amneal? I'm curious how it's going for you. My pharmacy gave me the option of Accord, Macleod or Amneal. I didn't realize that Amneal was formerly Lannett, or I might have chosen that one. However, I did read some anecdotal reports that some people had side effects with Amneal, so I chose Accord. I have been taking it for 3-4 weeks and the past 10 days I have developed extreme fatigue/sluggishness, joint pain and some brain fog. I don't know if it is the new levo med, but nothing else has changed. Has anyone else taken Accord levo? Any issues? It seems to fall into the "no gluten ingredients, but we can't guarantee 100%, but it's likely safe category." I'm wondering if it is worth switching to Amneal or at least getting my thyroid levels checked. If the med is causing my symptoms, I'm guessing it's not because of gluten but maybe the potency is different from Mylan and I need different dosing. Accord was recalled for lower potency, but my pharmacist said the pills I have were not part of that lot.

      In 70-year-olds, DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) levels are significantly lower than in young adults, typically around 20% of youthful levels, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) | (.gov). This decline is a natural part of aging, with DHEA production decreasing from its peak in the third decade of life. While some studies suggest potential benefits of DHEA replacement in older adults, particularly in women, results are not consistently positive across all studies.
