I also stated having Cream Hill Estates/Laras Rolled Oats just recently, twice or three times per week, and have had no problems. On the alternate days, for breakfast, I have Pocono Cream of Buckwheat. Eating the natural foods our great great grandparents ate is healthier than the processed stuff of today. I bet their oats were gluten-free, as well.

We saw a TV commercial for Dietz & Watson, and it ended by saying that their cold cuts are trans-fat free and gluten-free. This was the first time we've heard the phrase in a TV advertisement!

I wonder if they'd make gluten-free SOS?

I had many of these symptoms, and more. I also had the feeling that I stepped on a tack, even while lying down. It would usually get me in a toe and sometimes, including while I was standing up, this sharp pain would be duplicated at the same time in my forearm, wrist, or hand. It never bothered me much, and was not one of my worst symptoms, but seems to...

ARCHIVED Anyone Ever Cheat On This Diet?
ENF replied to sillyyak's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Had a question. Nevermind, I already figured it out by looking at past postings. -
Tapioca starch does not usually contain gluten.

After avoiding oats for years, I just bought a box of gluten-fee oats, by Chateu Cream Hill Estates. The box contains a sheet titled, "Questionnaire - Pure, uncontaminated Oats in the Celiac Diet", and they ask that the customer fill it out and send it in. It consists of a number of questions regarding the celiac patient's symptoms, diagnosis, adherence...

That's very interesting. I've been wondering for a while if this were possible. Do you have the source of this information so that I can read it? Thanks!

Thank you for the explanation about genes and villi damage. When I was a kid, we had mostly Silvercup and Wonder breads. In upstate New York, where I went in the summer, they had Friedhoffer products. Making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without ripping the bread apart was an aquired skill. I do rember eating "Real" freshly baked rye bread, bagels...

I thought that this was good news, and that the more companies that are doing research, the better off we are. As someone with both celiac genes, and many years of being sick, in the case of this research I prefer to view the glass as half-full. At the very least, the cross-contamination risks would be lessened for people with celiac when a vaccine...

I don't know if this has been posted before. This company, Nexpep, is starting clinical trials early in 2008 for a vaccine. Open Original Shared Link

Since posting my question yesterday, I've been giving this some thought. I don't even know where we're going yet - but after dinner we're going to Carnegie Hall. This is not close enough to any of Manhattan's gluten-free Chinese restaruants. So, I'm still considering rice, possibly plain chicken, steamed vegetables and maybe some of the sauces people...

I'm planning to attend dinner at a Chinese restaurant with a group of people next month, before an event we're attending. Forget about asking to have it in a gluten-free place, that's not going to happen. I never eat out except in restaurants that have dedicated gluten free choices, and am considering either not going, or bringing my own food due to the...

Here's the abstract of a recently published article from the May 2007 International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry, Dental enamel defects in children with coeliac disease. The study was conducted in Holland. Open Original Shared Link "Conclusion. This study showed significantly more specific enamel defects in Dutch children with coeliac disease as...

I've had numerous dental problems my whole life: crowns, bridges, extractions, root canals, bad gums, etc. In one strange instance, thirty years ago, a lump grew in a spot where I had a tooth pulled, due to a Vitamin A deficiency, and I had to have that cut out by an oral surgeon. All peritonitis

ARCHIVED Enterolab
ENF replied to confusedks's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My wife and I each had all of the Enterolab tests for the gluten, soy, egg, casein, fecal fat and yeast. We sent the samples in separately, about a month apart, so that they couldn't have been mixed up. All of the positives and negatives were the same for both of us, with numbers that were very close as well. One of the genes was also the same for us.... -

ARCHIVED Redbridge----
ENF replied to GeoffCJ's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Redbridge cost me 10 dollars for a six pack at a small immigrant-owned convenience store in Brooklyn. I'd never been in the store before, and the guy may have just made up the price. -
Can anybody recommend a gluten free red wine? I don't know anything at all about wine, but I'd like to try something that's not expensive, easy to find in liquor stores, and is gluten free. Thank you.

Gluten free weekend at the Greenmarket Cafe in Honhokus, New Jersey, this Friday and Saturday. Open Original Shared Link Haven't been there yet, but the owner is a fantastic chef. He can cook anything, and specializes in organic, healthy food with an emphasis on vegitarian - although there are meat dishes available. Greenmarket Cafe 190 Franklin...

ARCHIVED Am I Crazy, Or Are Women More Frequently Gluten Intolerant?
ENF replied to jonney's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
My mother died young because she didn't seek medical attention for a problem until it was too late. We're all human, and both sexes make health-related mistakes of all kinds. -
ARCHIVED Am I Crazy, Or Are Women More Frequently Gluten Intolerant?
ENF replied to jonney's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have read that women are at least twice as likely to have celiac as men. That's a big difference in percentage. There was a request on this message board a couple of years ago for a male celiac forum, in the fashion of other sub-forums here, but this suggestion was not accepted. -
ARCHIVED Am I Crazy, Or Are Women More Frequently Gluten Intolerant?
ENF replied to jonney's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'd estimate that the percentage of postings by females on this board is probably 95% or more. ENF -
Drugs don't really help with glutening - at least the type of symptoms that I had. As far as getting retested, I've had blood tests since going gluten-free, and the results have been negative - but I know that I've been glutened by BEANO, and the test didn't show any elevated antibodies, possibly it was too little to come out. That test was performed...
