  1. Have you tried Colostrum ? It is a miracle immune booster, it really helped my son with a strep infection (he cant have antibiotics due to a candida problem). Good luck.
  2. DH was just diagnosed Pre-diabetic, what on earth do I feed him ? Which flours are low glycemic index ? Are rice cakes really high glycemic ? Are there any books or other resourses for diabetic celiacs ? His blood test came back negative for celiac, by the way, but he was on a gluten-free diet when tested. He is ill whenever he eats it (starts as horrible...
  3. My ingredients are: brown rice flour white rice flour cornstarch tapioca flour eggs brown rice syrup gelatin xanthan gum baking powder and canola oil oh, and rice milk
  4. I have been baking yeast free, gluten free, low-moderate(?) oxalate, casein free bread for our family. Everyone loves it... but now my DH has been diagnosed pre-diabetic, so I am worried the cornstarch (2/3 cup per small loaf) might be a problem for him. Anyone have any experience or knowledge on this ? The only substitute for cornstarch I can find is amaranth...
  5. Our household became gluten free for our son about 7 months ago (with a few accidents in the 1st couple of months). My son has thrived on the diet (he never tested positive, but he was gluten free for 2 months before testing, we tried the gluten challenge with disastrous results-explosive diarreah and vomit-so we gave up that idea) He did test positive for...
  6. I read that Brag's unfiltered apple cider vinegar is actually good for fighting yeast infection, anyone have any experience with that ?
  7. Whole Foods market at 2210 Westlake Ave is pretty close to there, they have a lot of gluten-free stuff, the fresh bakery items are pretty good, a good variety, etc. Hope that helps
  8. Ok, this is a weird one, my 7 year old ( severe reaction too gluten & casein, waiting for test results for others): When he goes too bed he is stricken with extreme heat, complains & cries, takes all his clothes off, opens the window wide (it is 34 degrees out). His poor sister on the bottom bunk is freezing! When we check on him after he is asleep...
  9. Good topic ! Anyone had any problems with the : "made in a facility/etc with wheat" food ? Afraid to try it ! I 'm assuming they have to state that, just in case... ??!!??
  10. Wow, it is great to see others with similar problems my Dad is having...He has had Lymes since the 70's (northern Californian mountains hippie)... Never had a positive test yet. All the symptoms you can name, including gluten intolerance (Severe villi damage, Dr said it was the worst he'd ever seen). He weighs about 140 lbs (6'2"tall) & eats constantly...
  11. I can totally relate ! My gluten/casein free son (age7, recently diagnosed) hardly eats anything. Now he cant have "real" milk, he doesn't want any milk. He does love the amond chocolate milk, you should try it, if you haven't yet. Almonds have tons of calcium in them so it is a great milk substitute. My son eats dry cereal (mesa sunrise) with a glass of...
  12. Taco sounds good ! For lunch I like to make a pizza variation with corn tortillas : put alittle margarine/butter in fry pan, a corn tortilla with pasta sauce, cheese, spinach,ham, etc, top with another corn tortilla & margarine, fry each side on medium (cover to keep tortillas from drying out too much) for a few minutes, & there you have it, quick...
  13. I dont know all the details but I know yeast can cause distended tummy... it is in lots of stuff, even gluten free items...vinegar....sugars etc... not a fun one ! Thinking of pursuing it myself ND recommended... Good luck !
  14. Hi, One tasty casein free product is tofutti, they do cream cheese-like products. Not a substitute for cheddar I know, but excellent on toasted items ! My gluten-free/CF child likes their slices on pizza too...( I recommend adding a bit of olive oil and salt, etc ), be warned it does have partially hygrogenated soy in it. There is also a weird powder product...
  15. He has been gluten free for 2 1/2 months. We are seeing a naturopath. What exactly is a GI ? Melissa
  16. Hi. I put my son on a trial gluten/ casein free diet for ADHD problems and health ( very low weight and dark circles under eyes, looks unwell). I introduced gluten and dairy back into his diet last night, as we are testing him next week. Well the results were extreme, after an hour or so he had farts and burps and then he had bright red ears and lips. Then...
