Hi!

Yes, I know of a support group around here--at Saint Mary's in Rogers, Jan Carmicheal leader--but I'm just wondering if there are celiacs with children in Fayetteville!

My son is 6 and doesn't think anyone, besides us, has to eat gluten-free! :D

So, I'm just asking...

Hello Connie, I hope you check this sometime. I'm in Fayetteville. It would be so nice to know someone from my town that has Celiac also. Do you shop at Ozark foods? I'll keep checking back.

I know this post is very old- but I was just "diagnosed"( not really, but told to try the diet and it works) and I live in the Fayetteville Area. So far am the only one in my family with this issue.

Hi Kellie,

I am in NW Arkansas, Eureka Springs. I have not been to a support group in the area, but there is one in either Springdale or Fayetteville.

There is another new member here from NW Arkansas - Razorbackfan who posted in the Doctors section.

There is a group trying to start a gluten free brewery in Springdale - here is the link Open Original Shared Link

I emailed them and they have had some funding problems, but still hope to start producing soon, maybe just on a smaller scale. They were also planning on serving gluten free pizza, so I hope they get up and running soon.

Good luck and let me know if I can help you. I have been gluten free for almost a year now.

Hello. I am from Green Forest. I am just learning of the disease. I am trying to figure out where to buy food!!! I've been shopping at Nature's Wonders in Harrison, but man, I am going broke! Just wondering if you had any recommendations.

Thanks!

The cheapest way is to first of all primarily use naturally gluten free items.

Secondly, shop at walmart and buy what they have gluten free - such as the great value au gratin potatoes, chex cereal, hormel chili with beans etc.

Then I buy what I want in specialty items on line. Amazon has a large selection. The only problem is that you generally have to buy in bulk. That is ok if you know you love the item. I buy pamela's choc. cake and pancake mix, main street granola, enerG pretzels, gluten free pasta and noodles, all from there in bulk.

I also buy the food tek microwave gluten free items from there. Those do not have to be bought in bulk. They make single serving microwave items like cake, hamburger buns, pizza - (I don't like that one for pizza, but I like it for folding around a hot dog), corn bread.

This site, that you are posting on, has an online store as well, where you can try a variety of items and not have to buy in bulk. You will see links for it - the gluten free mall on the sides of the forum.

I pretty much cook the items I always used to, and just sub in potato starch, corn starch or gluten free flour mixes where needed. Gluten free cookies, cakes, brownies can all be made easily at home and taste really good.

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      PPI's can be a wonderful healing agent when used as prescribed on the label which I believe recommends use of up to 8 weeks. But they are like antibiotics in that they are overprescribed and undermonitored. Docs generally prescribe them and then keep prescribing them because they take care of immediate symptoms so well. Physicians are more into treating symptoms than uncovering causes.

      For the vast majority of celiacs it's probably safe, however, it seems that for those who are super sensitive it's best to avoid such products. It's fairly easy now to find brands that are naturally gluten-free, which is what Celiac.com recommends.  You might finds this article interesting:
