    I have always kept away from all of the Don products. "Is Don Is Not Good".. My preference is Hans (www.hans.com.au) as everythng from them is gluten-free.

    I got mail today from the "Centre for Clinical Studies" where I volunteered for testing out a medication for people like us with Coeliac Disease. In this mail was a press release from "Alvine Pharmaceuticals Inc." which was good news from the trials I was in. Here is what the press release said... There is more to that press release, but its about...

    The trials I volunteered for was to see if any reaction to the Nexvax2 vaccine. It wasn't at this stage to see what happens eating gluten foods after the injection. I suppse the next stage will be to see Nexvax2 vaccine reation to gluten. I was called into the research hospital (Centre for Clinical Studies) for a day once a week for over 3 weeks, also...

    I was one of the volunteers in this trial for Nexvax2 vaccine. Have recently just finished the trials! The great news is that with this vaccine given to me by injection, I had NO side affects what so ever. I hope this is does work out as I would LOVE to get onto this medication and go back to a normal diet again!

    Its sad that Kelloggs make so many different types of breakfast cerials but NONE of them are gluten free. I find it so annoying going to Coles or Safeway/Woolworths and seeing all these Kelloggs cerials and we cant touch any of them. We should write letters to Kelloggs and tell them its time for them to make at least one gluten free cerial. I went to the...

    quick question, do you think Kelloggs Australia will EVER create a gluten free cerial??? Every cerial they have here is not gluten free, I was checking through their website (www.kelloggs.com.au) and noticed that there is nothing on it about gluten free.... Cheers Ty

    ARCHIVED Alv003 Trials

    Wombat replied to Wombat's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    I was told by the doctors before the trials that ALV003 is NOT a cure for us to eat food with gluten in it. It's just a safe guard against any cross-contaminated foods, e.g. restaurants! I am still glad that I volunteered to do this, and if I was asked again I would say yes!

    Hi everyone, I recently volunteered at our research hospital here in Melbourne, Australia for trails with ALV003, with about 5 other volunteers. ALV003 is an orally administered combination of two proteases engineered to digest gluten. It targets the glutamine and proline residues that are common in gluten. ALV003 consists of a glutamine-specific...

    Hi Kassandra, Thanks so much for your tips, I am sure they will help. The last time I was in the USA (in 2004) I was not diagnosed with Coeliac Disease, which I suppose was great, and could eat anything. I really did love the burgers from Fat Burger! hehehehe With the looking around on the net I have found that Lassens Foods and Trader Joes...

    I went to the Celiac Clinic at the Royal Melbourne Hospital last week for a check-up, and told the Doc that Im going to the USA for Christmas. The Doc said to me be very careful with what I eat, as Iabel laws with food are not as strict as what they are here in Australia. I think I'll be ok, as I have already looked up what there is available whats foods...

    Hi everyone, I am a newbie here too, joined here a few weeks ago and have been reading alot of the forums here. I was diagnosed with C.D. about 2 years ago. I am lucky in a way, because if I do eat any food with gluten it doesnt make me sick, but I do try to live on a G.F. diet. I am going to the USA at Christmas time, so Im gonna find it interesting...
