    MMM, these sound like good recipes, guys, thanks! Considering the only stuff in my kitchen right now are condiments, I need to get shopping and cooking Thanks again for your help! -Sally

    Hi everyone, I'm hoping some of you have recipes or ideas for gluten free, dairy free, soy free, and vegetarian appetizers. Quite a list of restrictions, I know, but my friend is vegetarian and I am the other three and we struggle to try and cook together. We're getting together on Saturday afternoon (two days from now), so any suggestions would be highly...

    Well, you can read my "I'm a lazy single girl with Celiac Disease" blog: Open Original Shared Link for starters! I just did a special post about dealing with hangovers on a gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free diet, so there's that! Also, I'm 23 and was diagnosed a month after I graduated college, so I hear ya! I also went to Western Michigan University...

    Let's see...I went to Rome, Venice, and Florence in March of this year and had a few problems. Everyone said people in Italy are well aware of celiac disease and will know what you're talking about when you explain it to them (or hand them your translation card...definitely have it with you at all times), but I went to one place where the server was a complete...

    I still feel awful a good portion of the time and I've been strictly gluten, dairy, and soy-free since last November. I know if I wasn't motivated by the pain and depression of eating these things, I probably wouldn't stick with the diet. It's amazing what a motivator pain can be! I still have depression on occasion, which is strange, because that is a new...

    I know I checked on their website pretty thoroughly the day that I posted the original post on here and I couldn't find a thing helpful for us gluten-free folks. I think the assumption is if it doesn't go in your mouth, you're fine. But my nutritionist mentioned that if it goes in your body anywhere (mouth, eyes, ears, nose) it has to be gluten-free. I've...

    Centrum is gluten-free...as is Caltrate, if you need options for Calcium and D One a Day Women's is NOT gluten-free, just FYI.

    I need some help. My nutritionist told me that anything that goes into your body, whether through the mouth, nose, eyes, ears, etc...has to be gluten-free. However, I haven't been able to find ANY information about contact solution or eye drops. I DID find that Renu doesn't guarantee ANYTHING to be gluten-free. Anyone know any safe brands? Thanks...

    I read somewhere that all Colgate toothpastes are fine. Has anyone heard otherwise? Actually, it was my nutritionist who said they were all gluten-free...she's had a Celiac diagnosis about 15 years ago and is one of the premier researchers, so I'm quite confident in her advice/knowledge.
  11. sallyterpsichore
    Yep, I second that. I've been gluten free since the day after Thanksgiving (I wanted to eat one last feast before getting my test done...since they were quite certain I had celiac just from my antibodies). Anyway, I'm still a mess. I get migraines (have one now), my stomach still kills me with no hints as to what it is, I get major muscle aches, fatigue,...

    Thanks so much for responding so quickly! I don't even know what the base alcohol is in limoncello. I know that there's a ton (and I do mean a TON) of sugar and of course lemon flavoring of some sort. I should've asked my nutritionist...darn!

    Hi everyone, I read through most of the posts about Italy in the travel section, but I didn't find anything about limoncello. Is this gluten-free?? Thanks in advance! -Sally

    Yay, it is safe! "thanks for the e-mail. O.Sin is gluten-free. we use only apples and champagne yeast - no artificial flavors or colors. we do add sulfites and sorbate to stabilize the product. we do need to add the info to our site."

    So glad to hear this! I'm a beer snob as well (hence the pain and tears!) I really don't like Bard's Tale...and I'm sure someone in Boston carries Redbridge. In fact, I think some of little local liquor stores do, according to the Busch site. Excellent! Thanks for the good news! -Sally

    I'm checking right now on a cider called "Original Sin" that's really tasty. It's made in NY, but they have it here in Boston (Cambridge especially) as well as Michigan and a few others. I'll update this when I get an answer. In terms of vodka, my doc said any vodkas are fine, since they're all distilled. So, while the potato vodkas are super tasty...

    Hi everyone, I'm new here, despite learning about my celiac disease back in late Nov. (I was still dealing with moving, a new job, making friends, and now my new fun food problems). Anyway, it's looking like Boston is the perfect place to live if you are forced to deal with this mess that we deal with. Has anyone been to a cafe on Newbury St. called...
