ARCHIVED Cheerios Recalls 1.8 Million Boxes
ENF posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I know that this has been mentioned today in another Cheerios thread, but I would like to make sure that everybody sees it. This is a huge embarrassment for General Mills, and I hope that they train their employees properly in the future so that an incident like this never happens again. It's a Class One Recall.

ARCHIVED Craving Pasta--Help!
ENF replied to Trapp's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've been eating Tinkyada pasta products for years and never had an issue. They make a number of shapes and styles, mostly based on brown rice, and several organic varieties. My favorites are Spaghetti Style (brown rice, water), Spinach Spaghetti Style (brown rice, spinach powder, water), and Vegetable Spirals (brown rice, carrot powder, tomato powder, water... -
Thanks. When there's not enough bone left to place an implant, as was my case, they must do bone grafts, which adds a considerable amount of time, and visits, to the process.

ARCHIVED What Happens If You Eat Dairy Even Though The Villi Can't Absorb It?
ENF replied to Mike212's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I've found that goats milk is much easier to digest than cows, and it's a fact that the casein is much less in goats milk. I buy canned powdered goat milk as well as ice cream, cheese and yogurt that are also made from goats milk, and they're all delicious. -
ARCHIVED How Do I Find All Of A Member's Posts?
ENF replied to ENF's topic in Board/Forum Technical Help
Thank you, Karen. -
In order to help someone, or understand their situation and history, sometimes it is necessary to see a member's previous posts. When I click on their user name, and Posts, all it shows is two posts, even though they are supposed to have posted more. Is there a way to see them all and pick from the list, like there used to be on this forum? Thank you.

Thanks, Gemini! I'm sure that you are correct that the digestive upsets were caused by the materials used for making impressions, which remain in place for over five minutes in addition to any additional debris, which I didn't get a chance to brush away until I returned home. These two implants feel very similar to the bridge they replaced, perhaps a little...

I'm pleased to report that I finished my dental implant procedures several weeks ago, and so far the two implanted teeth are fine. It took about ten months from start to finish, which was four months longer than I originally thought it would take. There were no complications, other than perhaps a bit of sickness from a regimen of very powerful antibiotics...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Beer: How Do We Know It Is Safe
ENF replied to Cmccartn's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've been drinking Corona Extra for a couple of months, no more than one bottle at a time, several times a week, with no problems. Several studies of gluten in beer have found Corona Extra to have gluten levels at or below 5 ppm, considerably less than the strict gluten-free standard of less than 20 ppm. In Mexico, where it is manufactured, it is labeled... -
We had to get my 85 y.o. mother-in-law out of her 9th floor apartment, in a large complex near Coney Island, which is without power, heat, gas and water, by taking her down the dark stairwell in her wheelchair and then transporting her to our place several miles away by car. Two security officers from her building did the carrying of her in the wheelchair...

ARCHIVED Dr. Oz Says Don't Go gluten-free If No Symptoms
ENF replied to Silencio's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dr. Oz holds a position at Columbia University Medical Center in NYC, which is also the home of the Celiac Disease Center, headed by Dr. Peter Green, one of the world's top authorities on Celiac. Dr. Green has appeared on other TV shows, such as the View, but not on Dr. Oz as far as I know. I question why Dr. Oz didn't get Dr. Green, or one of the other... -
ARCHIVED Dr. Oz: Enemy Of Gluten Free Efforts
ENF replied to jessicaljensen's topic in Publications & Publicity
The Dr. Oz show had a guest today that was demonstrating some gluten free recipes, which included oats in two out of three of the dishes, and no mention was made that the oats must be certified gluten free. -
ARCHIVED Dr. Oz: Enemy Of Gluten Free Efforts
ENF replied to jessicaljensen's topic in Publications & Publicity
Dr. Oz is having a show about gluten on Thursday, Sept. 27. His website uses the term "gluten allergy", which is not very encouraging. Open Original Shared Link -
I've recently begun using All Natural Goat Milk Protein, by Jarrow Formulas. It's a complete powdered protein, mixes easly with water or juice using a small mixer, and also contains pro-biotics which aids digestion. Very glad I found this, as I've been looking for such a product that does not contain cow's milk for a while.

Bisquick Pancake and Baking Mix, Gluten Free version, is delicious - and directons for making pizza crust with it are on the box.

I'm in the initial stages of getting two dental implants. I had bone grafts, in preparation, last week. The procedure went well, this was probably the most difficult part of the process, and it wasn't bad. The periodontist used mostly artificial materials for the graft, plus some of my own bone. I started a thread about implants some time ago, and...

Hello again, I have some updates. I know that this is not a dental message board, but so many of us have had problems with teeth and gums I think that it applies to Celiac. In 2007, I ended up getting the crowned tooth with a failed root canal, which I wrote about in the first post, extracted. I did not get an implant at that time, but got a standard...

ARCHIVED Maple Grove Farms Pancake And Waffle Mix
ENF posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm sorry to say that a gluten-free product that I greatly enjoyed, Maple Grove Pancake and Waffle Mix, has apparently been discontinued and replaced with Maple Grove Gluten Free All Purpose Baking Mix. The new box has pictures of waffles, biscuits and cookies on the box, and recipes on the package as well for these items. This version is more potato... -
ARCHIVED Guerrero Corn Tortillas
ENF replied to ENF's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Since my original post, I've been eating these tortillas every day, and have had no problems as a result. The same parent company, Gruma, makes both Mission and Guerrero tortillas. Sorry that this thread got misdirected, it was not intended to discuss the possibility of gluten cross-contamination in this product, and others - it was to let people... -
ARCHIVED Guerrero Corn Tortillas
ENF posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Just found an excellent gluten-free corn tortilla, Guerrero Tortillas De Maiz Blanco. They are sold in my neighborhood (Bklyn, NY) for $1.29, for a bag of 30 (1 lb 11.5 oz). I've had other corn tortillas but, other than the excellent corn tortillas produced by Mission, these are the only ones I've found that are designated Gluten Free on the packaging. ... -
ARCHIVED Meh, I Think I React To Chex :-(
ENF replied to anabananakins's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I enjoy Honey Nut Chex, which is gluten and dairy free, but avoid Cinnamon Chex, which is also gluten-free but has "nonfat milk" listed in it's ingredients. -
I have a problem with casein, but I can tolerate goats milk products, especially cheese made from it. Goats milk is considered by nutritionists to be much better than cows milk for humans, and I find that I have no digestive issues with it at all.
-
Good luck, if this is your final decision on the matter - but quitting the gluten-free diet, as others have mentioned, could have dire consequences for anybody with Celiac Disease.
-
That's great to hear. It can take a while to recover, and it sounds like you've made it. The other good news is, over time it gets even better.

ARCHIVED What Are Your Symptoms When You Get Glutened?
ENF replied to livelifelarge24's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I got glutened earlier this month, about 10 times over the course of about two weeks, as detailed in my thread yesterday in the Gluten-Free Ingredients & Food Labeling Issues section here: It wasn't nearly as bad as thought it would be, I had some D, emotional and neurological issues, but these problems were not nearly as severe they were for a...
