  1. Thank you 'ravenwoodglass' . I appreciate that everyone is different and certain things will have differing effects on different people. . I guess what I was looking for was a standard type reaction. (for example) . Someone might say when I use gluten containing soap my hands swell to twice there normal size. and then more and more people might say...
  2. Many thanks 'ravenwoodglass', . While your reference is informative (for which i thank you), it still is not what I'm looking for! . The links you provide, talk about mucus as a diagnostic tool. . I was looking for something to read that is medically based and shows a relationship between topical products containing (small amounts of allergen products...
  3. 'jmd3' thank you for your input, we were all mis-diagnosed for years and all suffered horrendously and in the begining we all were ignorant about the disease, and we all learnt by asking questions!. . Now I will try this one more time (you will notice the rest of this post is in large writing so people can read it easily and maybe answer the question...
  4. Ursa Major and Jestgar, . Your missing the whole point here !! . I don't know. . Because we, as Europeans don't encounter any of this ????. . I'm merely asking for someone to show medically that allergens in topical products are DETRIMENTAL to Celiac or DH sufferers ???? . The other point I was making was that people are trying to blame Celiac...
  5. Hi 'Mango04', Not sure what you mean by 'icky goppy', but if it's not a free running powder (dump it) . Normally it lasts for years if kept in an air-tight container, out of sunlight. . xanthan is a stabiliser/binder which gives bread and cakes back elasticity which is not present in naturally gluten-free flours because of the lack of gluten. . Best...
  6. Hi Ursa Major, I'm really sorry that you feel sick using wheat germ oil soap. . As regards washing your hands and ingesting gluten from residue, . Firstly you didn't rinse your hands very well if that's the case, . Secondly to ingest sufficient gluten from soap or shampoo, you would need to eat several bars of soap or drink a bottle or two of shampoo...
  7. Hi 'scotty', . Completely healed back to normal ? ?, . Can we ever assume we were normal to begin with !. . I'm much better than I was, . I've put on a lot of weight about 40 pounds (above my regular body weight) . I'm able to eat anything and everything (gluten-free of course). . I'm not so worried about the increase in body weight (though I...
  8. Hi 'imsohungry', . Try this recipe, 'Calorie City here You Come'. OLD FASHIONED DOUGHNUTS INGREDIENTS: 2 eggs beaten 2 cups of buttermilk
  9. Just curious, over there do you have stricter regulations on that kind of thing...in food and topical things???? In topical products do they just not use gluten????
  10. Hi 'j_mommy', Just out of curiousity I went through everything in the bathroom and NOTHING mentions wheat or an allergen on the ingredients. . Toothpaste, Palmolive, Macleans, Anvil and Hammer, Pearl Drops. . Creams, Nivea, Biore, Colet, Johnston Bros. . Shampoos, Cien, Dove, Head and Shoulders. . Anti-perspirants, Natrel, Lynx, . Checked...
  11. Hi all, . I see a few people are already 'up in arms'. . Having checked a few DH forums around the world, it seems only the US - CANADA have a fixation about Gluten in shampoo, lipstick etc. . That's not to say that it's not a problem for a small number of people, But there are other additives in shampoo etc that effect people with eczema etc, Who...
  12. Hi all, . Straight away I know this topic is going to rub a lot of people up the wrong way!! . I've read so many posts about Gluten in Shampoo, soap, toothpaste, oil etc, etc . So what's the big deal ?? . To the best of my knowledge for Gluten to be a problem for Celiacs it needs to be INGESTED. . Who's going to eat a handful of lipsticks or a...

Below are links to 2 bread recipes (with photo's). . Open Original Shared Link . Open Original Shared...

  17. Hi, back again with a clarification ! . In Europe shared facilities can be: . The same production line. . The line next to the production line. . Or in another room altogether. . The logic behind this is, if say for example the air pressure in the room (producing the item that is quoted as gluten-free) is less than that in the room producing...
  18. Hi, I'm not sure of the position on notification in the USA and Canada, but here in Ireland and throughout the EU if a product is manufactured in a shared facility IT MUST STATE on the labelling MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF.... these could be any of the 8 top Allergens. . David

Hopefully someone nearby will take you up on your offer. . If you have decided to bake goods from 'Scratch' welcome to the club, any assistance you need, just ask. . Best regards, David
  22. [ Hi luckotheeirish1, If your Mom makes wicked awesome gluten-free cakes maybe, she could bake this recipe I posted on the Irish Coeliac Society Site. . It would just be a matter of covering it with marzipan (almond paste) and covering that with ready to roll gluten-free white icing. . Brand names in brackets can be ignored, the are required by...

I live In Ireland but regularlly visit Canada for Christmas and New Year, and the one thing I must bring back to Ireland each Visit is about 12 jars of Clubhouse Spicy Pepper - Medley. .

  25. Hi Saldwal, In response to your query re:Maltodextrin, this is what the Irish Coeliac Society Moderator had to say to the very same query this side.. . These days maltodextrin is mostly derived from a wheat source, however the chemical process would render any gluten residue remaining less than 5ppm (parts per million) so it is considered safe for Coeliacs...
