    So for my business communications class we get to choose a topic for our final 10 minute presentation....of course i have to talk about celiac disease! This presentation isnt until May. I have tons of info i could talk about just from researching this for so long and I know info is easily available out there, but I was wondering if anyone has any links...

    I'll try this! thanks!

    yes, I love all kinds of greens. especially collard and mustard greens. I'm still not 100% sure about grains. I seem better (digestive wise) off of them, but I lack tons of energy w/o them. Brown rice and quinoa (when I can afford it!) I love. I will have to try the rice with raisins/maple syrup, that sounds REALLY good right now.

    So I've been eating (for the most part) all whole foods and took grains out of my diet..I have them on occasion, but find I'm better without them. I'm gluten/soy/dairy free, minus the tiny bits of soy here and there once and a while that dont seem to bother me... same with dairy...it really depends.....I just dont like the thought of dairy/hormones alltogether...
  5. LuvMoosic4life
    dont qoute me on this, but another thing may be hormonal changes as a result of changing your diet. I've been through quite a hormonal rollercoaster since going gluten-free...its just starting to even out now...but there were times where I would cry for no reason, even of front of peopleI normally dont cry in front of..it was like it was uncontrollable.....

    Has anyone had a problem with this? I've bought the wal mart brand that is the same thing and have no problem (its labeled gluten free), but for some reason when I eat the tyson chicken I get bad gas and a "bubbly" stomach...very annoying! Its not as bad as a glutening but foul smelling like it, and I only get foul smelling gas from soy/dairy/gluten....

    I would definitly look into other foods. Maybe it could be a withdrawl symptom? I know I had this also off and on after going gluten-free. Kind of like when you are used to having caffiene for so long and then cut it out, some poeple get headaces.....at least for me that happened...
  8. LuvMoosic4life
    all this advice is really good. I would definitly keep snacks you KNOW are gluten-free handy wherever you go. Also, I'm not sure what your diet is like, but it is really helpful to eat NON-Processed whole foods. I know the typical diet of the average person today is anything but this, but the more you stick to relying on whole foods over processed, the less...

    I was thinking this too actually. They could've explained it better and took a little more time...but then I was also thinking the average person watching the show would still not undertand it completely. Not saying that everyone is clueless..but just from talking to people on a day to day basis ,sometimes trying to explain what gluten is and what happens...

    I was wondering if anyone else watched "The Doctors" today??. They had an episode about "what to do after diagnosis" of differant diseases/conditions. I was immediatly thinking, "they better talk about celiac" and sure enough I saw a bag of Tinyada Pasta sitting in front of them and thought "yay." Anyways, I was glad that they talked about it as...

    Initially my PMS got better after going gluten-free, but a few months later they got worse, REALLY worse.... but I also found out I develop cysts in my ovaries. I have had some wierd bleeding with the cysts as well, but also other colored discharge...which i wont get into But with the larger cysts my period comes late....its like my PMS last for a month...
  12. LuvMoosic4life
    just wondering, are you female?? Ever since going gluten free I noticed changes in my voice, but I'm pretty sure they are due to hormone changes throughout the month. I've had my thyroid checked several times and they say its normal. BUt all of the symptoms I feel are very similar to thyroid. At certain times of the month my voice is completely weak. I...

    I believe i finally figured this out. Salt. I normally eat all whole foods with very little sodium in my diet. I bought some corn tortillas the other day, i defintly ate too many because I could feel the salt irritating my mouth. I woke up the next day tasting blood in my throat, looked in, sure enough, thre were a few little red dots that have...

    ARCHIVED Nuts

    LuvMoosic4life posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    I know a lot of people have issues with nuts. I love eating nuts and usually dont have too much of a problem unless i eat more than the serving. Typically Peanuts are the worst (they sit in my stomach, especially peanut butter) and cashews I just stay away from... I know they are in the bean family too though..... BUUUT For some reason t I found that...

    I always though t floating stools meant a lot of gas in the stool. I used to have them all the time b4 going gluten-free. The only time I have had them while gluten-free is if I eat too many processed foods. I eat tons of fruits and veggies now and nearly NO processed foods at all and never have floating stools.
  16. LuvMoosic4life
    thanks. I am definitly looking at other options first
  17. LuvMoosic4life
    just thought I'd add i dont care for redbridge, but if I was in a bar that had it I MAY get it. I am desperate to try GREENS beer. They sell it at some Wegmans in 3 differant flavors for $5 a bottle... my fav wine is cabernet. Also The Lakewood vinyards Wine "Long Stem Red" from the finger lakes is a really good red wine for $8 a bottle I live in Ny...

    ARCHIVED Work

    LuvMoosic4life posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I'm a college student looking for a job. Most of the options in my town involve resturants, since there are three times the amount of resturants here than stores!! Tim Hortons is out of the question for me lol, I've worked there before knowing about celiac... Bob Evans in Hiring and I was thinking of applying either for grill or dishwasher. (I hate...

    thanks. I defintily plan on making another gyno appointment after my ultrasound next week regardless of the results. I'm thinking that maybe my estrogen and progesterone levels are out of wack b/c it can cause the symptoms I'm having (I think ). hopefully they can have a blood test or something before I go... They never really told me my blood work results...

    I heard switching over to the gluten free diet can effect hormones in the body. I was just wondering if there is anyone else, particualry women, who has experienced this and how long does it take for the body to go back to "normal"??? I'm not sure if hormones are my issue, but I really don know what else it could be. I'v been gluten-free almost a year...

    on this same note. there is a great video on this. its a litte long, but I was completely disgusted when I saw it Open Original Shared Link
  22. LuvMoosic4life
    someone from this forum shared this with me- interesting! except it would suck for those of us who arent officially diagnosed! I'd still be skeptical anyways.... Open Original Shared Link
  23. LuvMoosic4life
    thanks. so true. It was around this time last year that I started realizing gluten was a problem for me. I didnt go completely gluten free until May, but even after all that time I'm still learning, I definitly have the diet down, I'm just realizing how hard the social aspect of it is, especially now that I am becoming more sensitive to CC since I havent...

    thanks so much. Is it possible to have a sinus infection and not even know? I thought it cleared up but i still feel a popping feeling in my sinuses once and a while...
  25. LuvMoosic4life
    so now I'm really wondering. my stools are really dark brown...almost black looking..like when I have pepto bismul, but I havent had any. I havent changed anything in my diet normally my stool is bright brown from all the colored fruits and veggies I eat, and I didnt have any meat yesterday or anything dark... (sorry for the visual) lol
