It is my understanding that as long as the items are not plastic (will have small pits and grooves that could contain gluten) or wood (again, could have gluten "hiding"), that you can thoroughly clean the things you have and continue to use them. Stainless steel can be scoured, glassware and porcelain could be thoroughly scrubbed. Non-stick should be thrown out, I believe. It can get pits and damaged places too small to see could be hiding gluten.

Good luck. :)

We reaseasoned our cast iron and kept our stainless steel, glass, and glazed items. We got rid of stoneware, nonstick, cutting boards, serrated knives, anything wood, an plastic containers that held grains. We got rid of small appliances with air intake or regulary used with gluten as well. I have a post on the blog linked from my profile about going 100% gluten free that may help.

Ditto here. I did get rid of everything at once but replaced it over time to reduce the monetary impact.

Yes at this time I just cant affored all new. So I guess my non sticks are a nono with no way of using them? I have a stainless one I guess will be mine and thank goodness Christmas is on its way as well as my Birthday ;/ guess we know what Mary gets lol..I am trying to male the entire house gluten free besides my families premade breads. This at the beginning is not as easy as I thought. Thank you again!!! I do appreciate it ALL more than you know!

If your non-stick cookware is in good condition and you feel that you can effectively wash it, then I would do so. Today's non-stick surfaces are far different from the early teflon pans that would scratch if you looked at them while holding a metal spoon. :o

Another option is to buy silicone liners - I have flat ones to line cookies sheets, you can also buy muffin cups. They are relatively cheap. I only recently bought my own cookies sheets (it's been almost 10 years).

You don't have to replace everything to the same level of quality right away (or ever). We got cheap new utensils, use fewer pans and bought used stainless steel, bought cheap knives... It still adds up but did soften the financial blow.

It was my understanding that as long as you washed everything with soap and water there would be no problem. All I did was wash all my iron (I have at least 15 pieces) with soap and a brush. I learned at America's Test Kitchen to season with flax oil. It creates a seal that is so good, so perment. Problem is, you have to do it more than once but not more than 6 times. I didn't bother with the oven, unside down, ect. I just put it on low on the stove and let it rip all day, oiling it every hour. Boy does it work.

We have never had a problem, I really feel for you who think you have to take it this far!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
