ARCHIVED Anything To Watch Out For At The Dentist?
MaryJones2 replied to Yenni's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
That's awesome that your dentist took the time to call and put it in your file. I've discussed products at length with my dentist and they've called all their manufacturuers and the only thing questionable that we've ever come up with is the baking soda pressure wash stuff they use for cleanings. The issue was not necessarily that it had gluten as an ingredient... -
ARCHIVED Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
MaryJones2 replied to djmom's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
dj, have you had your thyroid checked? I associate abnormal bleeding more with thyroid issues than celiac. -
ARCHIVED Envirokidz Rice Bars Now Have Soy!
MaryJones2 replied to 2boysmama's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I think they are two different products but both contain some form of soy. One is the Cheetah Berry and the other is the Pengiun Fruity Burst. Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED Does This Sound Right To You...
MaryJones2 replied to ECD's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
You should never leave a physician's office in tears (or cry when you get home). Please think about finding a new one with a little more compassion. -
ARCHIVED Is This What Gluteining Feels Like? And Other Questions.
MaryJones2 replied to SGWhiskers's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I am really please with Freeda and Kirkman Labs brands. Many people here trust those brands as well. -
ARCHIVED Equipment Shared With, Same Equipment As, Same Plant As
MaryJones2 replied to Arizona Gary's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Welcome Gary. There is no correct answer to your question. I would not discount it as cya though. It really depends on how sensitive you are, what the product is, what else is made in the facility and the processes used by that manufacturer. Some people can consume products packed on the same equipment and others can't. Some can use products made by one company... -
ARCHIVED Rice Replacement
MaryJones2 replied to mom2twoangels's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
How about tapioca, sorghum, corn, buckwheat, amaranth, arrowroot, coconut, and quinoa? You might have to experiment a bit to get the right combo for the recipe. BTW - Chebe bread mix is rice and nut free. -
ARCHIVED Glutened By Starbucks?
MaryJones2 replied to leadmeastray88's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have a small commercial machine and I have to take the wand apart to completely sanitize it. The wands on the machines at Starbucks are very similar and I can't imagine they could do that during the day because it's pretty time consuming and you have to scrub the pieces to get the gunk off that collects between the parts. The pipe stays pretty clean if... -
ARCHIVED Coco-biotic By Body Ecology
MaryJones2 replied to ShayFL's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I would not. I am also in the same boat as ravenwoodglass. I am not impressed with their statement and am not convinced they fully understand. -
I haven't eaten there but have read good things about this place: Open Original Shared Link

ARCHIVED Please Help, Starving To Death! Cant Eat Rice, Gluten, Eggs,
MaryJones2 replied to dizzygrinch's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Open Original Shared Link pasta is rice-free. Open Original Shared Linkmakes corn flakes. Envirokidz Gorilla Much and Peanut Butter Panda Puffs are rice free. Hemp Milk is an awesome rice-free dairy alternative. Bette Hagman's Gluten-Free Gourmet Bread cookbook has quite a few recipes that are egg-free and are either rice free or can be made with other... -
Here's what Emily Post has to say about the situation: Open Original Shared Link I think you are right that only the people expressly listed are invited - especially if it's a sit-down or anything with table assignments.

ARCHIVED Can Anyone Help Me?
MaryJones2 replied to GFqueen17's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
This might be worth a trip to the doctor. It could be gluten exposure but it could also be completely unrelated and could indicate a more serious problem. -
ARCHIVED Mcdonalds

OR Potato, Canola Oil Blend, Antioxidant (320), Food Acid (330), Antifoam (900a), Dextrose. Note: French Fries are cooked in canola oil blend, salt added. Link to Ingredient statment... -
ARCHIVED Rice Milk
MaryJones2 replied to nitu-752002's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Rice Dream is formulated with a barley enzyme and has enough gluten in it to cause problems for many celiacs. The label used to state that it contained 20ppm gluten but that has recently been changed to gluten-free (presumably because of pending legislation here in the US defining gluten-free as 20ppm or less) but the formula has not changed. There are... -
ARCHIVED But I Love My Recipes!
MaryJones2 replied to reichhoff9's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I also had a lot of family recipes to fix. I've never found a single all-purpose gluten-free flour that works for every recipe. For gluten-free recipes sure but when trying to fix old recipes I've found that I just have to play around and experiment until I find the right combination that produces the flavor you are looking for. Wheat flour has a very... -
ARCHIVED Ingles Commercial Mentions Gluten Free Muffin Mix
MaryJones2 replied to fig girl's topic in Publications & Publicity
Ingles is awesome! I do my weekly shopping there. I recently saw a gluten-free section in their local sale circular that took up half a page. They also have a registered dietician, Leah, who has personally responded to my emails regarding the status of several of their store products. Here's the Open Original Shared Link where you can download the... -

Check into the PillCam and discuss that with your doctor/insurance. -
ARCHIVED How Much Gluten Is In Whole Wheat Bread?
MaryJones2 replied to Melissa394's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
BTW - Here's the answer for the original question of How much gluten is in whole wheat bread. You may have to do some math though https://www.celiac.com/articles/1095/1/Rese...ents/Page1.html -
ARCHIVED How Much Gluten Is In Whole Wheat Bread?
MaryJones2 replied to Melissa394's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hi Melissa, So I think from your post that you are just figuring out that your son may have gluten issues. Is your son in the process of being formally tested and diagnosed? If so, then wheat bread might be the best thing to feed him until his testing is complete. If your instinct turns out to be true you'll find plenty of great info and support here... -
ARCHIVED Intestinal Healing Time
MaryJones2 replied to Ms. Skinny Chic's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'd say 3 months to 2 years is pretty accurate. It took about 18 months before I felt great every day. It really helped me the first year to ask myself do you feel better this month than last month? And now I ask that in years. So, it does take a while but your doctor is right that you'll see some pretty dramatic changes in the first few months. Best... -
ARCHIVED Alorex
MaryJones2 replied to Christine3200's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It appears to be nothing more than a vitamin supplement. I suspect you can get better results from a good multi-vitamin and at $22 a bottle (it looks like a bottle might only be a 10 day supply?) a multi-vitamin will certainly be much cheaper. -

ARCHIVED "regular Stores" Frozen Dinners: Any Gluten Free?
MaryJones2 replied to MinnieM's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Here's the FAQ from lean cuisine. I would assume none of the Open Original Shared Linkare gluten-free. They may have some that don't contain gluten ingredients but they are likely cross contaminated. Q. Looking for LEAN CUISINE
