    I am having a very hard time finding a toothpaste that is soy free. It doesn't affect me too badly, not the same as say eating something with soy lecithin in it, but it does provide some discomfort compared to if I just brush my teeth with water, which I honestly hate doing, because my mouth doesn't feel as clean . Is there such a thing as a soy free toothpaste...

    They're the one thing I haven't given up since going gluten free. In fact, I started smoking again a couple of weeks after I figured out I was supposed to be gluten free . I'm just wondering, because its been a year now, and I'm still having problems. Does anyone know if they're gluten free?

    I was just wondering what ya'll's thoughts were on going to salons to get your hair colored and cut. I haven't been to a salon in like three years. I just do my hair at home or go to one of those $5 dollar cutting places, but I've lost a bunch of weight recently and I'd kind of like a completely new hairstyle. Does anyone here go to salons like Penny's or...

    I tried having some chocolate milk about three months after I got my results from Enterolab and it was not fun:ph34r:. I was sick for two days afterwards: headache, stiff neck, and stomach issues. I might have tried too soon, but I don't think I'll be trying any again for a long long time. I'm sorry I don't have any suggestions for the yogurt. I'm on...

    I haven't dyed my hair in about two years, but was thinking about adding some highlights. Does anyone know of any gluten free blonde hair dye? Thank you.

    Depression and axiety were a huge problem for me before. My anxiety was so bad at one point I could barely leave the house. Riight before I was diagnosed, the depression had gotten so bad that I didn't want to live. Since I've been gluten free, its cleared up a lot. I still have my down days and anxiety sometimes, but not nearly as bad as it used to be. ...

    lilypad23 posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I'm going out of town in about three weeks to visit my grandmother. I'll be there for five days. The only problem is that my aunt, who I'll be staying with, isn't the most supportive person in this situation. She basically thinks that because I won't go out to eat and I quit my job at Pizza Hut that I'm being too careful about it. I'm kind of worried about...

    Thank you all for the replies. I really appreciate it. I'd never even thought of that, really. I buy my meat at H-E-B. I just get the H-E-B brand and there are usually cuts of meat that are pre-seasoned and pre-breaded. I thought about it once, like maybe they use the same stuff to cut the meat or weight it or whatever that they use to put all the...

    I do live in a non-gluten-free house, but my aunt and mom don't eat any of my stuff. The only thing in the kitchen that we all use is the silverware. I usually cook squash and zucchini with olive oil, beef with mushrooms, onions, and celery, or chicken with mushrooms. I also cook fish in olive oil.

    I have my own pots and pans, cooking utensils, bowls, and sponges, yet every time I cook anything I get sick. I noticed this because I go on fruit and vegetable fasts about twice a week and I feel fine when I do those as far as stomach issues and brain fog is concerned. However, as soon as I eat anything I cook, I get what feels like a mild glutening. I get...

    Gold Bond Ultimate Healing Lotion works pretty well.

    Gelatin is supposed to help your nails get stronger and grow faster.

    Does anyone know if Bernard Jensen gelatin capsules are gluten free? I used to take them before I got diagnosed, but then ran out. I was thinking of ordering them again, but I've had some difficulty finding out if they're for sure gluten free. Does anyone use them or use some other form of gelatin capsules that are safe? Thanks.

    Hi. Sorry I haven't been back in a while. I've been super busy with finals, but now they're finally done and I have a break . Anyways, I really appreciated all the advice and everything but I just had a question. About a week after my first post, I just woke up one morning and noticed that I felt a lot better, and since then I've been improving a lot. I'm...

    Thank you guys very much. I really appreciate the advice. Every time I tell my mother how I'm feeling, she just says that it is my nerves and I'm a hypochondriac. I just don't think that nerves could cause this many problems or cause me to react to everything that I eat. Maybe I'm wrong, but I know my body and I know when something isn't right and right now...

    Thank you guys for the advice. I appreciate it. Its kind of discouraging that it might not go away, but I guess I'll get used to it.

    I am starting to feel like a hypochondriac, but I think this might be a possibility. I have two dogs and they have ticks and I constantly get bitten by ticks. I mean, practically every day I find a tick on me. I keep my dogs bathed and all of that, but they still have them. Its really annoying . Anyways, I was looking at the symptoms and I have a bunch....

    I did a test like that and knew for sure that I had it about four days after I went gluten free. I'm still having problems, but they're not as bad as they were that night. I got super sick. I wouldn't recommend trying it if you suspect that you have this.

    ARCHIVED Brain Fog

    lilypad23 posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    In some ways, my brain fog has gotten better. I'm better in social situations and I talk more. Also, thankfully, I've gotten much better at math. However, in some ways it has gotten worse. For instance, I'm a student and I used to be a pretty good writer. Even at my worst, I could still write a decent paper. However, this semester, its like I can't write...

    Thank you guys for the advice. I really appreciate it. SB, my family basically labeled me a hypochondriac, lazy, etc... for years and my mom still thinks I'm a hypochondriac. But, anyways, that's awesome that you were able to help your neice.

    I work at Pizza Hut and I get sick every time I go to work. I wouldn't recommend it.
