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!

      I agree.  If someone has Barrett's Esophagus, at least here in the UK, as I understand it under normal circumstances a PPI needs to be taken long term (or similar medication).  I have two friends with this.  The PPI it does have side effects but they still have to take it.

      Do talk to your doctor about making changes to your medication.    I'm not a medical doctor.   I'm a microbiologist.  I studied nutrition before switching to microbiology because I was curious what vitamins were doing inside the body. I would hate to give advice that jeopardizes your health, so do discuss things with your doctor.

      @Jmartes71, Sorry you've been feeling so poorly.   Are you taking any medication to treat the SIBO?   Are you taking any Benfotiamine?  Benfotiamine will help get control of the SIBO.  Thiamine deficiency has symptoms in common with MS. Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks?  Carbon Monoxide poisoning can cause the same symptoms as the flu and glutening.  Doctors have to check venous blood (not arterial) for carbon monoxide.  Are other inhabitants sick, or just you?  Do they leave the house and get fresh air which relieves their symptoms?

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States.   In European countries, different cooking methods and longer  fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides. Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat.  Gluten content can vary according to where the wheat was grown, growing conditions, when harvested, and local preference, so a blend of both hard and soft wheat is used to make a uniform product.   I moved around quite a bit as a child in a military family.  I had different reactions to gluten in different areas of the country every time we moved.  I believe some wheat breeds and blends are able to provoke a worse immune response than others.   Since European soft wheat doesn't contain as much gluten as American wheat, you may try increasing your intake of your soft wheat products.  A minimum of ten grams of gluten is required to get a sufficient immunological response so that the anti-gluten antibodies leave the intestines and enter the bloodstream where they can be measured by the tTg IgA test.  Your whole wheat bread may only have a gram of gluten per slice, so be prepared...

      From my own experience and that of others who have tried to discontinue PPI use, I think your taper down plan is much too aggressive. It took me months of very incremental tapering to get to the point where I felt I was succeeding and even then I had to rely some days on TUMS to squelch flareups. After about a year I felt I had finally won the battle. Rebound is real. If I were you I would aim at cutting back in weekly increments for two weeks at a time rather than daily increments. So, for instance, if you have been taking 2x20mg per day, the first week cut that down to 2x20mg for six days and 1x20 mg for the other day. Do that for two weeks and then cut down to 2x20mg for five days and 1x20 for two days. On the third week, go 20x2 for four days and 20x1 for 3 days. Give yourself a week to adjust for the reduced dosage rather than reducing it more each week. I hope this makes sense.
