  1. I just read the labels. The two products I had been using that contained wheat said quite clearly on the label that they do.
  2. OK, if you still have the package , can you tell me if these wonders are egg and soy free as well? Dare I hope ...
  3. And you know this, how? Not trying to be argumentative. But I haven't seen anything to indicate that China has changed how it makes citric acid. Or do you know of studies that show that no gluten makes it through to the final product? Is there some source you can point me to that explains, well, we used to think this, but these tests have been run...
  4. Regular allergy tests won't show a problem with casein, if one exists. You can tell this by dietary test and/or by testing by folks such as Enterolab. The very lowest casein content is in ghee, which is so clarified that no protein remains. I react to butter. I disagree with gfpaperdoll's conclusions about a healthy diet BTW But this really isn't...
  5. It does take time. Unfortunately, there are no definite timetables. It depends on the individual. I haven't heard anyone who has healed completely in three weeks, though, so hang in there. (Maybe the folks who heal in three weeks don't hang out on this board ) I assume you have a good list of ingredients that are safe, unsafe or need to be investigated...
  6. Of course it is ultimately your decision. But if it were me, I don't think it would be worth getting tested. Six months of feeling sick and doing damage to your body just to, what? Tell you what you already know? If you get a positive result, you will just do what your body is telling you to do anyway. If you get a negative result, it could just be that...
  7. I have heard that some citric acid manufactured outside the country may be made from wheat. Googling just now, I found this reported more than once. Here is one site: Open Original Shared Link The stuff made in the US is safe, according to everything I've read. Someone who researched this once (she found herself reacting to imported coconut milk...
  8. Heck, I can readily get my Tinkyada to turn into slime if I'm not careful. I guess it takes talent I have to keep it below a rolling boil, cook for less time than they ever say, testing frequently, and rinse. Then if I'm lucky, it's edible. I think people have different tastes in how they like their pasta. My favorite gluten-free pasta is Bionaturae...
  9. One of my standbys is to go to a tapas restaurant. They seem to use olive oil and not butter. When I asked about soy at my favorite place, they sniffed, "We have no soy on the premises!" OK ... They even have a gluten-free menu. Just be careful about gazpacho -- it frequently has gluten. Another favorite of mine is Indian. You just need to make...
  10. I was under the impression that the more frequent urination is a symptom you recently developed. Did I misunderstand? Did you have this (and the dry itchy skin, the fatigue, and the tingling in your extremities) when you last tested your blood sugar? Please do test (and make sure that your test hasn't expired or something), and at different times in...
  11. Wow, I'd love it if I could take only 250 mg of magnesium and it acted in 8 hours. Unfortunately, I need much more over the course of a day and it takes longer. Just to note that there are individual variations ...
  12. I really feel for you, but I don't know what to advise beyond sticking to things that don't make you sick (or make you the least sick anyway). Are you taking any medicines or supplements you might be reacting to? Have you tried probiotics? If you haven't already, I strongly urge you to have your blood sugar checked. I don't know if this can affect...
  13. I try to avoid a lot of artificial ingredients. It does seem to help. If it isn't clear in this thread, it is possible to have casein in things OTHER than dairy. You have to read labels and be on the lookout for anything with casein or caseinate listed among the ingredients. Manufacturers like to throw this into soy and rice cheeses, for instance.
  14. Goat's milk has very little of the type of casein people usually react to. I don't know why you didn't react to yogurt, although some have reported that they do better with fermented products. I didn't always react to dairy. It was a problem that increased over time. I am surprised that avocado is on your list. I thought it was a fairly common...
  15. Have you seen if you can get a signed doctor's note from Enterolab?
