    I've been on this gluten-free diet now for almost 7 years and if a cure came out I would go running for it. I agree that pills cause problems but as we get older we will all have to take pills for various other health problems that we develop. What is the problem with adding on another pill that will make life easier? Perhaps for some people eating gluten...

    Open Original Shared Link I saw this on my local news station on Monday and I immediately thought of Celiac Disease. They do mention wheat in the article. Now I know that some people may argue otherwise but this study, and I'm sure there are probably others like it, show that something is going on. Let's face it 20+ years ago nobody had Celiac Disease...

    If you can tolerate distilled alcohol then you should be alright with this product. Funny how when I read this I think of Kikkoman. Their soy sauce contains wheat but is distilled and considered gluten-free. They released a statement about this some time ago and I've read quite a bit about the controversy. After this happened they then released a gluten-free...

    I'm not sure who mentioned that there are no Korean gluten-free soy sauces but I did find this one: Open Original Shared Link I'm not sure how new it is but the company is Haechandle which is spelled 해찬들 and is based in Seoul. There is also Ganjang which is soy sauce that comes from Doenjang. Doenjang is hard to make but for someone who will be spending more ...

    Try to have a gluten-free card in Mandarin with you wherever you go, even if you speak Mandarin because explaining gluten-free will be very difficult.

    I know what you mean. My wife is Korean and we live in NY. We traveled to Korea about 2 years ago and I didn't have much of a problem because we normally had family make things specially for me or we bought things that seemed safe. I'm not particularly sensitive but I think I still got glutened. I was so constipated over there. Sometimes the issue of moving...

    Well, I'm not sure how accurate their tests were but I doubt that the letter is a forgery. I may contact them soon regarding that letter just to be sure. If it is fake or not very accurate then they should have a gluten-free option but as I said before it wouldn't change much. Now with all these gluten-free companies we should expect more competition and...

    No, please see my post above the one that you replied to. I list about four sites that have the info but one site is two different pages.

    As an additional reply I'm adding this. In the letter they say that there regular soy sauce is gluten-free because of the process but then they go ahead and make a 100% gluten-free soy sauce. If it is gluten-free because of the process and according to the Codex then there is no need for a gluten-free product. It is just there for people that need the 10...

    Not exactly on their site but there is a letter: Open Original Shared Link and then see these sites: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link see Shirlee Finn's comment Open Original Shared Link please read this site it is important.

    Right I always check the label and I'm fully aware that it is the second ingredient but they claim that through their process that it is filtered out/distilled out (neutralized). It is essentially the same with the distilled alcohols. Some people still get sick from distilled alcohol and some will probably get sick with this processed soy sauce. It depends...

    I would try Whole Foods, they usually carry lots of gluten-free products.
  15. Lawrence
    It is available and here is the product locator: Open Original Shared Link but the results are somewhat limited.
  16. Lawrence
    I just heard about this soy sauce on another website and then several others. I also heard that their regular soy sauces are supposedly gluten-free and there is talk about that on this site. These two thoughts combined compel me to wonder; Why does Kikkoman need to make a soy sauce that is gluten free if they already claim their other soy sauces are naturally...

    I haven't seen these videos and I haven't heard this from any other source. I'm afraid to watch. Most gluten-free food is made from corn and rice. I would probably die if I couldn't eat corn and rice too.

    ARCHIVED Fad Diets

    Lawrence replied to Rowena's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    I like the fact that it will create a greater demand for gluten-free foods but I don't like people thinking its some "fad". It is not a choice for the majority of people on it and I would probably now eat as much and not need to diet if I were eating regular food. I hope people can realize that this is a serious diet and not some silly fad diet like bananas...

    Sounds like your in the same boat as me. In the beginning I lost weight and then I balloned. I was 150-155lbs, now I am 190. I was diagnosed two weeks before turning 21, now I'm 24 and almost 25. I'm always hungry on this gluten-free diet. I really hope they come up with a cure for this, it is so depressing.

    Yesterday I was in Manhattan near Wall Street with my wife's friend and I had a bad experience with a supposedly semi gluten free place. We were walking around at about 10:30 AM and we passed a place called Five Guys. A while back I read that they were supposed to have some gluten-free options. I walked in and it was not open but the staff was standing around...

    I read this article and although it does not mention gluten I think it can be applied to it: Open Original Shared Link

    What about Smirnoff vodka mojito? I've been having that for the past week and I feel really sick today, not the first time but the worst case today. I would like to add that I have other alcohol afterwards. My wife introduced me to a drink she made up last week. It's a combo of Finest Call Pina Colada (which they said on their site is gluten-free), malibu...

    I called today and they said it was alright as long as I bring a gluten-free snack. So I will go soon.

    Well I would like to give it a try soon. Years ago I donated once and then they called every two weeks or so asking for blood so my mom told them I had Celiac or something and they stopped calling. Also I was hemaphobic so my experience was not so good. I tried a second time but almost passed out and then they refused me. I would like to try again since I...

    Can people with Celiac donate blood? It seems like someone with Celiac, I don't see anything online against it but my doctor said they might not give it to a person. They might only do tests.
