    Never mind, results just showed up in my email..... I am gluten sensitive and they reccomend a strict gluten free diet. Well, I guess that makes it official.. so I am not celiac what is the word for me- Did I see Gluteniac? somewhere.

    I am really anxious to see results, I know website says 3weeks but are they every early?? No matter what tests say I feel better not eating gluten so I will stay that way but still want to see results soon.

    Another "C" here, Always always been a problem. Best solution to date is 1. Magnesium tabs daily 2. 1 Activia every morning ( no dairy issues that I know of - yet) but what I found best was a product at your local health food store called SWISS KRISS. keeps you moving daily....but alas I have diverticulosis and they said I cannot take it...

    Anything that can do double duty.. A roast chicken on sunday can become chicken sandwiches then a chicken on salad then chicken and noodles. A roast in the crockpot around our house then becomes what my kids call roast beast, Trim fat from roast and grind it up with some sweet pickle, add mayo and some pickle juice and its great. Tuna salad, I...

    Welcome, I too am fairly new and I have done lots on internet research, This is a wonderful site for all the info you are asking for. I have also looked at celiac list serve and they have some of the lists your are asking about. Baking flours and some other items are much cheaper at Asian or Indian markets if you have any in your area. Good Luck

    Thanks all, I do need the extra fiber (believe it or not) so I will prob mix the white and brown. Yep our asian stores carry both reg white and sweet white but nobody here carries that fine grind so I will mix or has anyone tried to take the Bob's and whiz it in the processer to make it a finer grind? I have also mixed Teff in a number of baked goods...

    Our local markets do not carry the fine grind rice flour now used by most cookbook's. I know you can order- but seems very pricey compared to the fine grind white I can get here. Is there any big diff or is there something else I can use. Any idea's welcome. Thanks

    The going out is proving tougher for me too. There are however a number of national chain rest. that have gluten free menus that help make it easier. My 23 yr old daughter is going gluten free and it is VERY hard for her. Plan to take her to Outback sunday- they even have a dessert she will love- The Thunder Down Under--- Speaking as a 45 yr old with a...

    Ok, I just read entire thread and I think I am more confused. Activia prob does not have gluten per se because it is distilled, HOWEVER that still makes some people sick. Is this a correct interprutation?? Thanks

    AAACKK guess what I have been having every morning??? Activia shoot shoot shoot Thanks so much for posting this. I assume the Vanilla has it too.

    I too am very new to this and after reading lots of info on this site and others I have elected to NOT do endoscope. 1. The chance of them getting sample from a "damaged" spot not that high. 2. What diff will it make, I have went gluten free already- why do more tests. 3. No matter what tests show I will stay gluten free I feel so much better, it...

    Is there that big of a diff? I can find Fine ground white rice at local asian markets, but no where other than expensive interenet order shop can I find the brown rice reccomended in some receipes. Is there a big differance? or is there something else I can add to the white ? Thanks for the help.

    I have self diagnosed many thing that were then verified by dtrs. I went gluten free 2 weeks ago and plan to stick with it- no matter what tests may say. Decided I do not want to go back to gluten just for blood work that may or may not show anything just to then have an endoscope biopsy that it too may or may not show anything. Instead I sent off my ...

    I am just starting a gluten free diet- 2 weeks so far and am feeling somewhat better. I am wondering how long your family was on the diet before making this much improvement?? Did you go milk free as well or did you use a lactose free milk ? Thanks

    Thank you so much for that great list, I too am new to all this and it is very overwhelming- all the don'ts so its nice to see a long list of YES go ahead..

    when I look at the McDonalds Fries its shows wheat product, I am very new to this but in the Gluten Free Bible these are rated the best fries to eat. Anyway here is the website and they list lots of national chains and most have allergy info on them Open Original Shared Link

    The way I take probiotics is 1. Accidopholis pearls (small round capsule) from health food store. I have systemic yeast. The other way I currently get probiotics is from Activia which if I test positive for Lactose Int. that will stop I am sure. But they have both helped.

    Hi, I am in process of self diagnosis- not unusual for me. I have Lupus, Fibro, IBS, Systemic Yeast and lots of other chronic PIA items but nothing severe. I am looking at having the stool test run and am wondering which one you would reccomend. The expensive all in one or just the plain ole stool sample?? This site has SOO much info.. It has been...
