Wanting To Talk To Someone

This weekend I was in the Bakersfield, California area visting my folks. We went to Bakersfield to a place called Lassen's. It is a family owned store similar to Whole Foods. They had a lot of great gluten-free products. The best thing about that visit was that one of the employees is a Celiac. We were able to talk a bit. After I left I realized that this was the first time that I was able to talk face to face with someone else who is dealing with celiac disease. It felt GREAT!!! :D I've asked this before...anyone reading this from Fresno, CA??? :unsure:

Hi Kathleen,

I am in your area. We talked on email a few times, but I lost my entire email address book, so I haven't contacted anyone in a while. Please email me and we can plan a time to get together.

god bless,

Mariann

Hi Kathleen,

I recently moved to Fresno from San Jose (just a bit south/west of Clovis). I am classified as "gluten-intolerant" rather than celiac because I have not been diagnosed via the biopsy. Regardless of the label, however, I need to be gluten-free to stay healthy. I was diagnosed almost 2 years ago, so have some experience with the disease and the emotional impact it can have on your life. I don't know much about Fresno yet, but would be happy to talk to you any time. Feel free to email. - Alicia

Hey, I am here in Clovis, just diagnosed last week, feeling lonely and like I've entered a bizarre universe!! Thankfully, Trader Joe's saved my life.

This thread is from last summer, but if you guys check it again, let me know! We could meet for gluten-free coffee..... :rolleyes:

Hi Susan...I havn't been on this board in a long while. I just read your message from the beginning of this year. Wish I had read it earlier. I know what you mean by a bizarre universe. After 6 months ...how are you feeling...Kathleen

Hi, I am pretty close to you, living in Bakersfield, going to Fresno often as my husband attends FSU. I love Lassen's as well. The owner there takes a real interest in Celiac's and Gluten intolerance as well as Wheat intol. Their Kinnikinik bread is THE BOMB.

I would like to invite anyone who's in the Fresno, California area with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, and who's serious about adhering to a gluten-free diet, to consider joining Gluten Free Fresno, a Yahoo! group at

      This is really helpful  I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks for the practical baking tips too color coding and baking G F first makes a lot of sense.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

      Thanks for asking  I’m mainly looking for gluten-free staples and snacks. Any recommendations for brands or go-to items would be appreciated.

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
