ARCHIVED Eosinophilic Esophagitis (Eoe)
njbeachbum replied to njbeachbum's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Bumping.... Hi again - surprised that I didn't hear from anyone else dealing with EoE and Celiac Disease. I got my Basic Food Allergy panel results back on Friday and it was kind of a shocking punch in the gut (no pun intended). The RAST testing shows that I'm having IgE responses to: Corn - Class 2 Eggs, Soy, and Peanut - Class 3 And now... -
Good morning all! It's been a long time since I've posted here. I was diagnosed as Celiac at the end of 2007 and have since taken control of my disease and eating in a way that makes me very proud. I host holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas & Easter that are 100% gluten free and neither me or my family ever feels deprived. But following up a...

I had a feeling these were a bigger problem for people than I thought! I've had larabars but they are low on protein... I'm looking for something with whey and up to 20g per bar if possible.

ARCHIVED A Gluteny Food You've Craved But Definitely Not Worth It...
njbeachbum replied to heatherjane's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Raven- I'm 33 years old and I was diagnosed 3 years ago... and I didn't truly find my cooking "mojo" until I was gluten free. I love watching Food Network TV and I pride myself on the fact that I've been able to make almost any recipe I see in a gluten free version. UNTIL you see those Phyllo dough recipes.... my partner is Greek, so he grew up with... -
I've been eating Think Thin protein bars for awhile and I really enjoy the taste and the quick dose of protein you can get from one of them. I've always trusted them to be gluten free and healthy, and they are extremely filling. I work a 9-5 office job, and I would always have one at around 4 as a pick me up at the end of the day. But, in the past couple...

ARCHIVED TreSemme Gluten-Free Products
njbeachbum replied to Ruth Talbott's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I agree with you 100%, it is always a very personal decision - and honestly, there are enough personal care products out there that don't have gluten in them, so it is easy to avoid. But if you are really stuck on one particular shampoo, then only you can decide. -
ARCHIVED TreSemme Gluten-Free Products
njbeachbum replied to Ruth Talbott's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Let's be realistic here - think about the percentage of the shampoo that is made up of wheat... maybe 1 or 2% of the final product, but probably much less? Then let's think about how much shampoo you actually use for your hair in the shower. Then let's think about how much could POSSIBLY get into your mouth. You are probably looking at more risk from eating... -

If you're not eating it, then I really wouldn't worry about cross contamination. -
ARCHIVED Rudi's Bread - Better Than Udi
njbeachbum replied to Nor-TX's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
i definitely wouldn't say that Udi's is settling.... it's excellent sandwich bread! but for cinnamon raisin, try French Meadows... they have a great gluten-free version -
Awesome, thanks! Casein protein is the best at night because it's slower absorbing right? A good option is always a cup of greek yogurt before bed for a dose of about 15g of protein.

just an idea for a quick crust.... my partner made a quiche one day and for the crust he used corn chex - just pulverized them in the food processor with melted butter until it formed a sticky, crumbly mixture. He pressed it into the pie plate, filled it and baked and it was fantastic. The eggy quiche mixture seemed to seep into the crust and help...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free, Still Gaining Weight, Still Bloated
njbeachbum replied to LisaGF's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hi Lisa - I know this thread is a couple of months old, but I saw that you stopped eating the Think Thin bars because they were making you sick. I've been eating these for over a year now and just recently started to notice that I was getting very gassy and bloated in the late afternoon/evening (I eat one everyday at 4pm when I'm at work, like clockwork... -
Hi Patti! Thanks for the info - I have lived in Lakewood near Ocean County Park for about 7 years or so. Your list is great... I did not know about Mileto in PPB, so I'll have to check that one out. I've eaten at Outback in Brick many times and I've usually felt fine afterwards. I usually just get the filet with a sweet potato and a plain salad with...

Hey thanks Wheatfreedude! I appreciate the response. I picked up some of the 100% Whey at Vitamin Shoppe this weekend and tried it out this morning. I might try out the 100% Casein for overnight workout recovery too. The 100% Whey really mixes much smoother than the other stuff I used and the Vanilla Ice Cream flavor is quite tasty! I use the Insanity...

Breakfast is the one meal that worries me - most breakfast places are quick turnaround and they've got all kinds of stuff flying onto and off of the same grill. I like the idea of asking for a clean pan off of the main grill... shockingly, I never thought of that. What I do for breakfast that is almost always a safe bet - as for a couple of hard boiled...
