    Thanks everyone!

    Just bought some Chebe pizza crust and bread mixes and they say they are best when made with cheese mixed into the batter. Are they okay without?

    I 2nd the recommendation of Tinkyada pasta. Nearly identical to gluten-containing pasta, though you may have to make it a few times to figure out how to cook it to be exactly the right texture (as it goes from al dente to mushy kinda quick). It even reheats well. You can use it to replace noodles in any recipe. Also, I discovered a really yummy new breakfast...

    ARCHIVED Anyone Gone Raw?

    hineini replied to Rusla's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I have strong feelings about this topic. I believe raw food is HORRIBLE for most people with GI problems. Every doctor I've spoken to has said this, as have all the books I've read about eating for digestive problems. Well, I didn't listen to them. (I have IBS). I went to a raw, vegan, gluten-free/dairy-free restaurant a few weeks ago and... Wow, I...

    Hey, I have a real Jewish mother and she doesn't cook anything except spaghetti! My dad's the cook in my family ;-P I personally think stress, depression and anxiety play a role bigger than we even know when it comes to health stuff. It could well be a trigger for gluten intolerance and celiac disease, it's certainly a trigger for all kinds of other...

    I don't know what the rules are on this board but IMHO people should not be able to give others such dangerous medical advice here. That someone who is supposedly a medical student would do so is quite alarming. Advising a celiac to eat gluten? That is just too risky. A celiac who eats gluten is risking everything from vitamin malabsorption to dehydration...

    Welcome! I was just diagnosed, but I've been gluten-free (gluten-free) for 2 months now.... Before that I ate no wheat on and off for a few years while, but was never strict about gluten. One thing that I found very helpful, was to go to amazon .com and put in "Gluten Free" in the search bar, it comes up with all kinds of grocery products that are gluten...

    I just got prescribed Rozerem but my insurance doesn't cover it... So I'm going to use up the rest of the Ambien I have and then try to get some free Rozerem samples from my doc next time I see him.

    In case anyone is interested, I just verified that Freeda's vitamins are all soy-free!

    Michelle - Ditto re: giving out personal info to read an article. Re: taking all websites with a grain of salt - I agree, and that goes for THIS WEBSITE, too! I've seen a lot on this forum that seems pretty sketchy, and much questionable information presented as fact by people with no medical background. (In addition, of course, to a lot of good info...

    Fascinating! This also supports what someone told me in the thread about my Enterolab results, which is that I could try reintroducing soy after being casein free for a while to see if I'm still intolerant, since the study talks about damaged mucosa from casein intolerance causing soy sensitivity. Edited to add: I just read your note at the bottom of your...

    My latest ignorant server comment: Me: Is there any wheat or wheat products in it? Server: No, it just has flour in it.

    Thanks so much - And they're vegetarian and kosher! Wow. I will definitely bookmark that site. They don't claim to be soy-free but two out of three ain't bad (for now). I'll contact them to see if they actually use soy ingredients in the multi.

    I am a believer in Splenda being "evil" as with all artificial sweeteners... I mean I'm not about to run a one-woman campaign to get people to stop eating it, but I know that it makes me feel ill and I don't trust it one bit. Not saying I trust the sugar industry more, but rather that I wouldn't touch Splenda or any other artificial sweetener with a 10-foot...

    Thank you all so much for your support and help. It's still all sinking in. Glad I have the support of everyone on this board. AndreaB wrote: Where did you hear/read this? I"m wondering if there are any studies that show this is true. I haven't seen anything about soy or casein doing the same kind of intestinal damage as gluten... Maybe if I saw...

    I need a multivitamin, which used to be such an easy thing to find but now that I've learned I shouldn't be eating soy or casein in addition to gluten - Yikes! Is there such a thing as a gluten-free, CF, soy-free multi? EDITED to add: While I"m at it, I also need to find a calcium citrate / magnesium supplement... Thanks for your help

    For what it's worth, I got really sick after eating some canned stuffed grape leaves last week - Have no idea what the cause was, I don't think I'm sensitive to grain-based vinegar so i doubt it was that. Maybe there's a common ingredient or spice in them that has gluten in it or it could easily have been CC in both our cases.

    Oh wow... They sound so yucky but I totally want to give it a shot, as I'm trying to cut down on grains in general! I will bake them and let you know how they turn out.

    Ooh I'm going to have to try guar gum. I have lots of xanthan gum to use up first (got it cheap on EBay). Xanthan gum smells AWFUL. I'd be happy to have a cheaper and less stinky alternative

    I've made them several times. The keys, for me, are: -Using the amount of egg and oil they call for -Using butter instead of oil, if you're not allergic to casein - It's way yummier -Not overcooking it by even a second. Follow the minimum baking time on the package. promptly remove from oven. Remove brownies from pan as quickly as possible. Store in...

    Thanks Carla - Ya know, I've been looking forward to seeing these results but now that I see them I'm like "Noooooo!" I'm going to have to just take my time accepting it, and start working on kicking the casein (and myabe the soy) for a while to see what kind of results I get from that. I may start with the casein, and not try to get off soy right...

A) Gluten Sensitivity Stool and Gene Panel Complete *Best test/best value Fecal Antigliadin IgA 42 (Normal Range <10 Units) Fecal Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA 30 Units (Normal Range <10 Units) Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score 158 Units (Normal Range <300 Units) Fecal...

    Hi there - It's not very close to Ithaca, but I grew up in New Paltz (Ulster County) and am thinking of moving back there....
