Corrected, yes. But NO, NO, NO....it is NOT fun to spread false rumors, inaccurate information or ongoing false myths. WHY would you want to do that.

Many people here are struggling to be healthy. Your humor is very misplaced.

Lisa you say it's a myth, but I too believe envelope glue has gluten. I will surely stand corrected if you can tell me how you know for sure or point me to the proof that debunks the myth. B)

If you have a confirmed source of an envelope manufacturer who uses gluten in the adhesive, please, please, share it with us. In almost twelve years on the diet I have yet to find a single one. A negative cannot be scientifically proven--I invite you to offer positive proof of gluten.

I have made this offer before, many times. I am still waiting for the first proven case of gluten in adhesive. Until I find that example, like Lisa and others, I call it a myth. The burden of proof is in your hands. Show us a verifiable case where the adhesive contains gluten, and I will change my mind.

In the mean time, if you feel better using an alternative moisture source--for whatever reason--do so.

It's more important to regain the original topic. :)

Frankly, I find most of those TV shows which "touch" upon a subject and nibble a little bit around the edges, but never get to the core, very frustrating to watch, and I do not do so. I have no wish to grind my teeth while watching something that has been all dumbed down and distorted for "general" viewing and entertainment rather than the dissemination of accurate information. There now, doesn't that sound really stuffy and snooty?? :lol: No, I did not and will not watch Dr. Oz's show. :D

I'm stuck watching the cartoon chanel and never get to see shows like this. :lol:

As far as the envelopes are concerned, there are envelopes that you peel off the paper and stick. No licking required... :P

No, it doesn't sound snooty! It sounds about right.

And I agree.

I feel very much the same way about other issues, such as recycling. The issue is covered so superficially, and we never get beyond the beginner's level to move on to the real heart of the matter.

I agree 100%!

Amen, sister!....then, I guess I am stuffy and snooty, too. :lol:

(As for Mrs. Hasselbeck, where do I start? oh hell, never mind... :rolleyes: )

You folks have got to start supporting the post office or we won't have any reason to have letterboxes :ph34r: And then grannies won't get any 'thank you' letters :o And what would teenagers start bashing with their baseball bats then???

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
