  1. If you happen to be coming up to Flagstaff (it's only about 30 minutes away), we have a few chain restaurants such as Outback and Chili's with gluten-free menus. Also, there is a Picazzo's in Flagstaff as well. There is a good health food store in both Sedona and Flagstaff called New Frontiers, where you can pick up some gluten-free food for snacks, etc...

    ARCHIVED Dr. Kenneth Fine

    I haven't been on this forum in a while, but I was wondering if Dr. Fine has published his results yet? I have used the stool test for two members of my family and since then they have been gluten free, but their results were right on the border for being positive. Now, my daughter, who is celiac, is getting her old symptoms back after being gluten free...
  3. My college daughter who is extremely careful about eating out, etc, was just glutened by, if you can believe it, wheat berries. She had scrutinized everything in the salad, ingredients, you name it. Unbelievably, they didn't list wheat berries as an ingredient. Well, since she was starving, she gobbled some forkfuls before she realized the berries were...
  4. I don't know if you'll be making your way to Flagstaff, but if you do, you absolutely have to try Picazzo's Pizza. They have a huge selection of gluten-free pizza, and know all about cc issues, etc. Flagstaff is only 30 minutes from Williams, so it would definitely be worth the trip. Also, there is an Outback Steakhouse (full gluten-free menu) and a Chili...

    ARCHIVED Anaheim

    Hi all, We will be going to Disneyland for Spring Break, but not staying in the park itself. Does anyone know of any good gluten-free options in the near vicinity of Disney? Thanks in advance for your help.
  6. Although my daughter is 18 yrs. old now, and newly diagnosed, looking back now, she used to suffer from very bad "growing pains" in her legs. Now I realize it was all from celiac. At one point she even underwent physical therapy for very severe pain in her knees. Oh, if we only knew then what we know now. Anyway, I don't think "growing" is supposed to...
  7. Hi, I have the Shelley Case book, also in the newest edition. I ordered it from Amazon, so it's a little cheaper. I primarily got it because she gets into the nutritional value of different gluten-free flours, foods, etc. Also, there is a huge list of gluten-free companies in the back, as well as some recipes. I really like it and find it helpful. ...
  8. First, I want to say thank you so much for your wonderful bread recipe. It is every bit as good as everyone said. I love that it is soft, pliable, and has a thin crust. My children LOVE it!! I would purchase your cookbook in a heartbeat, as I really want to cook healthy foods for my family, but one thing we are dying for, is a good loaf of French/Italian...
  9. I have eaten at Chili's several times now, since I discovered their online updated menu. Their chicken caesar salad is delicious, and my daughter had the potato soup. I only asked them to mix the salad separately, of course.
  10. I know that the On The Border Salsa Con Queso is gluten free. I checked their web site and I got this product at Sam's Club.
  11. I also had tons of cavities as a kid, and have gum problems my whole life. I just took my son for a cleaning (he is gluten free due to intolerance issues, genes, etc.). Anyway, I self-diagnosed my own gluten intolerance since my daughter has tested positive. I discussed this with our dentist and he had never heard about enamel/dental problems although...
  12. Right before our household had gone gluten free, I had purchased two huge jugs of Mrs. Butterworth's syrup at Sam's Club. I have tried to no avail to find out if is gluten-free, but everything I come up with online is old information. And there's no 800 number on the jug, it say's to write to the company. Does anyone out there know if it is gluten-free...
  13. Hi and I am very excited about your products, but for a different reason. My daughter attends CU in Boulder and we have had a very difficult first semester, trying to get safe food for her to eat on campus. But thanks to the diligence and devotion of some very wonderful parents and community members, your store is providing gluten-free meals for the handful...
  14. I just called the Curel company and I inquired about the Continuous Comfort Original Formula lotion. The woman told me the standard "due to the fact that we have no control over our suppliers, we can't guarantee that it is gluten free." However, I went over the ingredients with her and in this particular formula, there are no questionable wheat or oat ingredients...
  15. Does anyone know if these are gluten free? For some reason I stopped using them, but after reading the label today in the store, I couldn't find any questionable ingredients. Maybe they have changed their formula recently? Any help is appreciated, as I really liked this product and it is affordable. Thanks
  16. My daughter was diagnosed with celiac in August, after many doctors, etc..... We have four children and I started suspecting my 13 yr. old son, since he has had chronic stuffy sinuses his whole life, and the only other symptom was bad gas. We had him tested through enterolab and he has the celiac gene as well as a gluten sensitivity gene. Although he is...

    ARCHIVED Iodine

    Before my daughter was finally diagnosed with celiac, I did a lot of research on my own. We normally see a naturopath, who we really like. My daughter has Hashimoto's as well, so when I researched iodine deficiency, I asked my doctor to do an iodine uptake test which we sent away for. Anyway, it came back showing that she is pretty deficient. But, here...
  18. Does anyone know if these bars are gluten-free? I've checked the ingredients and I can't see any suspect ones. Also, I've been researching Starbucks and according to them, the only drinks to avoid are the ones that contain chips. Anyone else have any experiences with this? Thanks in advance!!
  19. Hi and welcome We recently visited the Celestial Seasonings factory where they actually make all of their teas, and I asked the woman in the gift shop about gluten in their teas. She came back with a list of all of their teas that contained gluten. You can probable contact them on their website. Just google it. Considering the huge variety of teas that...
  20. Thanks for the info. We are planning a trip there in March, and although we've been going for several years, this is the first time gluten free. I went on Disney's website and I emailed a Chef Chris and he promptly replied that he would like to talk personally on the phone. Did you actually get a printout of all gluten free good available in the park,...
  21. I am not a confirmed celiac, but two of my children are (so far). After looking back at my family history I have also decided to go gluten-free, also as a support to my children. I have done the diet for one month now, and I feel more bloated and constipated than I ever have before. Is this normal? I never really had a problem like this before going gluten...
  22. My daughter has been gluten free since late August. One of her most debilitaing symptoms of celiac was complete muscle weakness, especially after eating. She is now home from college on break, and after a full meal she still has to immediately lay down due to this incredible weakness. I was hopeful that this would have gotten better by now. She did say...
  23. Hi and welcome!! Although my son is not a celiac, he does attend NYU. His sister and brother are celiacs. I do know that there are a lot of options in NY city for eating gluten free. You can do a search on this forum, for people who have visited NY. Try the travel forum. Also, he told me that there is a wonderful Whole Foods market I believe in Union...
