In my journey through Celiac land, I looked up the RJ Reynolds web site.

Might be interesting to some of you the amount of stuff in Cigs.

Web Site - RJRT.com

I too smoke, need and want to. If it doesn't you don't want to (me either).

Will contact celiac3270 when I can devote a while on the comp. and maybe he or someone can walk me through the down load for delf. Thanks for passing on my problems. Wish I could do that on to a palm pilot and carry it around in the grocery store. But on the other hand don't really know or care to learn what a palm pilot does. You know.."old dog, new tricks"

You smoke? I never knew that!

Downloading the Delphi list? You can put it on a palm! Lots of people do. You can buy them--as low as maybe $75-99 dollars and put the Delphi list on as a text file which you can read--bring it to the store, etc. You can also store contacts, to-do lists, calendar, etc. on it (in addition to notes) and if you want, download various programs free.

If you want it on a Palm, you'll want the text file version (rather than Word) unless you get a "Pocket PC" which is a little more expensive. For the computer, Microsoft Word will do.

How ironic is this posting!?!? I quit last Sunday 8/21. :D I am really struggling right now because my husband smokes. I really want to quit though. My jaw is sore from chewing gum! <_< I never thought to look at a tobacco website for pointers though! Thanks!

Great job! That's awesome--you're doing your body and your wallet such a service! Keep up the good work--chew all the gum you need! :D Congrats!

Yep, celiac3270, guilty as charged!!!! :(

I smoke (although I don't smoke in the house or the van). For each and every pregnancy though, I quit cold turkey, which as it turns out, for the twin pregnancy, it's a good thing I did since they were 9 weeks early and weighed 3 1/2 lbs. each. If I smoked, their birthweight would have been much lower and who knows what complications would have arisen then......

Unfortunately, as soon as those little buns were pushed out of the oven, I was downstairs quick as a flash lighting up! Going through labour does that to ya! Actually, when I brought the twins home and also had a two yr old and a seven yr old at home, smoking is probably what helped me keep my sanity!!!! :P

I am getting very close to the point that a smoker needs to be at to be successful at quitting though.......

I'll let you know when I do so you can all keep your fingers crossed for me!

Okay, let me know when you try.

Have you called the cig companies about gluten? If you're still getting sick...could there be something in there that's bothering you? I mean, they put so much cr** in them like ingredients from cleaning fluids and tar and stuff...why wouldn't they shove in a little gluten for good measure? :P

OOh, got to go, wanted to say one more thing, but out of time....]

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      Thanks I am mostly looking for everyday staples and easy meal ideas nothing too specialty if possible.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?
