As I'm still sort of a newbie & am sensitive to cc, I wanted to run my shopping list by you before I order these items. I'm rather scared of cc having been recently cc'd by refried beans. I know you guys can spot problems with the brands if I've chosen poorly. Thank you.

If you are fairly new to the gluten free diet, this is a large order list.

I would continue to eat whole foods and add one product at at time. B)

I need to add more protein & fat to my diet. So I absolutely need the nut butters b/c I have dh & issues with iodine regarding the dh & locally I can not get any unsalted nut butters. Then I really need some rice cakes or crackers to put them on. I have chosen soy free products as well as I have problems with soy. And the flax can be used in many ways to increase not only protein but all the other good things flax imparts. Potato starch is for gravies. The coconut macaroons add fiber & they just plain sound good. And then I thought I would try making some muffins or such.

Lisa gave you some really good advice. I so wish that I had been given that advice when I started on this diet.

We are all different in our levels of sensitivity and possibly other food intolerances. You have to determine for yourself what is safe for you to eat. The best way to do it is to add one new things a week so that you can tell where any reaction is coming from. It is a bit hard at first, but you soon have enough foods.

Otherwise you can be sick and have to keep trying eliminating different things to figure out what is getting you. That isn't a nice place to be.

I have had problems with many of the things on your list, but that doesn't mean that you will.

Okay. Thank you for the advice. I know you speak from experience & only wish to prevent me from mistakes. It is appreciated.

In case it helps, I've done o.k. with buckwheat that I believe is from BRM (it was bulk -- I know, I know, stay away from the bulk bins and all that... I'm still learning!). I've also done o.k. with Lundberg farms rice cakes (unsalted, brown rice), after realizing that I may have issues with the Quaker Oats brand. I also have the BRM potato starch, seems o.k. for me. The other stuff I haven't tried.

I did find some unsalted Adams peanut butter at Winco foods, fwiw.

Thanks ciamarie! I have had some Pocono buckwheat which I've been eating for some time & haven't had any problems with it. The stuff is funny ~~~ put sugar & milk on it & it tastes like cream of wheat ~~~ put butter & salt & it tastes like grits. But those are 2 of the things that were great comfort foods for me so I'm happy about that. When I have to go low iodine it puts a crimp in eating it though. I'm very happy to learn about the Lundberg farms rice cakes! I need something to put the peanut or almond butter on. The rice cakes were lowish in the salt so that fits with my iodine issue. I did read on the board to stay away from Quaker rice cakes. I'm going to have to order the nut butters online as this town doesn't have it at the grocery store & no health food stores have survived the economy.

I have been using BRM All Purpose Baking Flour, Brown Rice Flour, & White Rice Flour since almost the beginning & haven't had any problems with them although I would prefer to find some that are produced in a gluten free facility. Better safe than sorry especially considering how long dh can hang on (3-5 weeks for me).

I found some pure coconut oil at the grocery store today. I've been reading on the board how it's a substitute for butter. YAY! And they had some Glutino Flax Seed bread. Had some with lunch (lightly toasted) & it was delicious! I've read many on the board who think it sucks so I guess it's individual tastes but I'm very excited & Glutino stuff is made in a gluten-free facility.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
