ARCHIVED Riscotto? (sp?)
abc replied to imsohungry's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Do know that risotto homemade is easy and can easily be made gluten-free! As a chef...you use only onion, olive oil, arborio (or other specified risotto rice), chicken stock (gluten free of course) and butter and parmesean cheese. If you want to flavor it - you can add any sorts of veggies (I love it with pureed butternut squash or peas) or even ham, shellfish... -
ARCHIVED Am I Making It All Up?
abc replied to abc's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thank you both for your responses - turns out my IgG is elevated so they are referrring me in for the biopsy. My gut (hah) is telling me I am indeed needing to be gluten free. For now, however, I'm eating it up to make sure my results come out. Turns out it seems to in fact exist in my family, now that I;ve brought it up. Just, no one has been diagnosed... -
ARCHIVED How Many Of You/your Children Were Preemies?
abc replied to skipper30's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My last baby - now almost 9mos - was born 6 weeks premature. He had all the normal preemie probs, but came home from NICU after 8 days (just in time for Christmas!) He is now a whopping 21.5 pounds, so no eating issues there. I also had trouble getting pregnant with my first child, and am curious about infertility and celiac. I am still awaiting test results... -
I'm new here, and I just am confused about lecithin as an ingredient. I have been gluten -free for about a week, but have still used cooking oil spray and a protein powder with soy lecithin...only to read that it is a potential trigger? Is this true?

ARCHIVED Lunch Meat?
abc replied to JeanC's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've noticed that applegate farms declares some of their meats (roasted turkey breast for one) as gluten-free. I don't know if that's the one you've had, but if it is...either you have another trigger or they are incorrect! I agree with the "avoid" luncheon meats advice. There is so much excess sodium anyway. I know they are convenient...but you could... -
ARCHIVED Am I Making It All Up?
abc posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I finally went to the doctor last week to address digestive issues that have plagued me since the birth of my first child (s=who is now 3.5 years). Obviously, I have been able to live with them (or I would have gone in sooner), but lately, they seem to be getting worse. The most prevelant issue is the extraordinary gas I produce (I can't even be in the same...
