    ARCHIVED Oats

    JNBunnie1 replied to JNBunnie1's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Ok, no oats for me! I'm with you, it's not worth a month of agony. Maybe rice flakes or toasted quinoa flakes would pep up my apple crisp.

    mmm, I've been craving those soft cookies with the icing on them at the store, maybe you could tell me how yours turn out?

    I learned a trick the other day (and all you low-fat people are going to flip at this) but I made something with ground beef and I made baked potatos to mash, and I decided to see what would happen if I poured the drippings of the beef into the potatos. OH. MY. GOD. WOW is that yummy! You might try that with the potatos with the turkey juice, instead of using...

    My understanding is that you can sub gluten-free flour blends for any wheat flour recipe, just add 1 tsp xanthan gum to every 1 to 1 1/2 cups of flour (did I get that right guys?) However, if you're trying for more hold-together because of a heavy bread, I would use a little more egg and a little less liquid than it calls for. And remember, with heavy breads...

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I was hoping someone would chime in that HAS had a gluten reaction to the gluten-free oats?
  6. JNBunnie1
    Yeah, they keep forever in the peel, but if you peel and freeze, don't leave for more than a few days or you get furry bananas! It's a good way to make your banana bread sweeter with less refined sugar, because once it's been frozen the fiber breaks down a bit and I think it ferments a tiny bit as it's thawing, they always seem sweeter to me after freezing...

    That was very educational, Rya, thank you. I personally gained weight after going gluten-free and saw zero change in my periods, they got better a bit when I started eating more healthy fats and taking cod liver oil and vitamin A. I think this will be one of those things that 'everybody's diffrent!'

    Oh, I would definitely shell out for the 'safe' ones. I haven't had oats in a looooong time. Mostly I just want some decent apple crisp, though I'm sure I could experiment with quinoa. I just wanted to ask around because a glutening puts me out of commission for so very long, I can't afford to be out of work. glad you're feeling better though!

    Well, hell. What about the oats article Jeff Adams put on the homepage about a study in (I forget which country) where people with (diagnosed) Celiac ate oats for years with no intestinal damage? Did they all just happen to be the unaffected Celiacs?

    JNBunnie1 posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    whether all this talk about oats is just building me up to a big letdown. I would LOVE to have oats again, and I'd be willing to pay more for the gluten-free ones. I'd just like to know whether there's anyone out there who's had what they are pretty sure is a GLUTEN reaction to them? Not just the big D? I suffer for a month when I get glutened, I don't want...

    How are you doing, by the way? Not so good, it seems?
  12. JNBunnie1
    As far as I know, it is impossible for a health or life insurance provider to hold any illness or pre-existing condition against you unless they have an official medical diagnosis of SOME kind. I may be wrong about that, I hope someone can chime in. Sounds like you've found the solution to your children's problems, I personally would never ever let anyone...
  13. JNBunnie1
    Ever spray one in your mouth? FootballFanatic, I'd just check the ingredients.

    I think pretty much any 'butter' works. Some people do almond butter with almond extract.

    That may be because they're working better now and they're killing more bad bugs. Try taking a multi-organism probiotic, not just acidophilus.

    You know the scene in Finding Nemo where Marlin and Dory won't let themselves get swallowed by the gull and the gull has a fit? Maybe it was your bodies telling you 'bad food! bad food!' Just a lighthearted thought. You can share my mom! Do you live in Ct?

    Thank you, Centa. I kinda didn't mention it back in April, I guess I didn't want to make everyone sad.
  18. JNBunnie1
    That is an AWESOME analogy! I'm so using that (if you don't mind....)

    I know! we still play Uno and paint with watercolors, whenever my boyfriend plays with his legos (we're 23, by the way) I sing the Toys'r'us theme at him. I do that 'poke the owie' thing too, but have not ever felt tempted with gluten. I'm self diagnosed too, but a glutening takes too much away from me. I think you may find that this feeling fades with...

    Thank you. I don't like to be a downer, but them's the breaks, right?

    Ooooo, is that a little baby bug? That's so cute! (your avatar, I mean!)
  22. JNBunnie1
    Try it! That's the cool thing, it can't hurt!
  23. JNBunnie1
    Yes, but think about WHY a doctor wouldn't want o diagnose Celiac disease. There's no drug to treat, there's no office visits required to manage, for the most part. A Celiac diagnosis means money out of THEIR pockets, and of course they wouldn't like that. See, my doctor said, oh, you feel better? Good, I hope I never see you again! But my doctor's a pretty...

    I'd have to agree with everyone, how can people ask you to go out and change the world (as if that will keep the wheat flour out of their kitchens!) when you can't change even their actions regarding you? Also, I'd recommend that if he really wants to know WHY you have to be so careful, then he BE a best friend and GET HIS BUTT ONLINE and read this forum...

    Except for that a lot of peoples withdrawal, it seems, is an INCREASE in symptoms, and then a resolution. For some people, only from what I've read on here, they sometimes even get new symptoms and then those go away along with the old symptoms. it's like th ebody gets just a little weaker now that it's able to repair itself, and then the repair process gets...
