    I live in NH too, but am not there currently because I am in CA at school, (coming back home in 4 days will the power be on?!) so I know where you are coming from. If I were in your situation I would go to the grocery store and get nuts, dried fruit, lara bars, apples, oranges, canned pumpkin (can eat it right out of the can!), and other canned goods...

    This is a great thread! While I have not delved too much into gluten-free packaged goods, here is what I've come up with.. Worst Ener-g's Bread Enjoy Life's Cinnamon Crunch Granola - it does make a good topping for baked bananas in a ramekin if you soak them in some rice/almond/coconut milk before hand gluten-free graham crackers - don't remember...

    This is so interesting.. When I went gluten free in February.. all my periods after that were weird. I had a few heavy ones and light ones.. and then puttery ones, and then they just went away. I haven't had a normal period since March/April. I had breast tenderness/swelling before (after going gluten-free) and then it stopped, and then my periods stopped...

    Have you tried getting some gluten free flours and baking? Or getting a girlfriend, sister, or mother to bake for you? That's an easy and delicious source of carbs right there! The possibilities for gluten free carby baked goodies is endless! There are also wonderful pastas that are made from brown rice you can try, like Tinkyada! Hope this...

    what do they look like?

    I found this recipe a few weeks ago.. I really look forward to trying it! Scroll down a little bit for the recipe.. It is very allergy friendly so many of us soy-free, dairy-free, etc. It might be able to be modified for SCD, as well. Open Original Shared Link

    I love chocolate too, but being allergic to soy means I can't have it. I buy the 100% cacoa chocolate bars. It is a little bitter to begin with, but you get used to it. I now thoroughly enjoy it. Dip it in peanut butter (Maranatha brand is the best) to get started. Eventually you will like it, and won't miss the sugary icky chocolate of past days..

    Annie's dressings are hit or miss. Sometimes the label reads "White Distilled Vinegar from Corn or Rye" yet the bottle says "gluten free," so watch out. I really enjoyed the Roasted Garlic Vinagrette until I found out about the rye. Most of them look so good! However, they are expensive, and if you pick one out and don't like it.. then you just wasted a good...

    Mother of Jibril- it is important to designate between autoimmune hypothyroidism, and just plain hypothyroidism. She could have the autoimmune kind (like Hashimotos) or she could have the hypothyroidism without autoimmune part. I am on Armour too for subclinical hypothryoid. I have not yet reached the right dosage.. but I know where you are coming from...

    my left pinkie is shorter than my right pinky my left pinkie is shorter than the joint my right pinking is slightly above the joint but I voted based on the top of my pinky finger, I was confused with the whole under the nail thing now I am not sure if I did it right? funny thing to think about.. probably isn't true I fold my hands the recessive...

    I want to start a whole chain of restaurants, coffee shops and bakeries that is allergy friendly. Gluten free, soy free, dairy free, casein free, egg free, raw, vegan, vegetarian. Gluten and soy would be my first priority... because not being able to have soy makes life REALLY hard. I thought gluten was hard...

    Yes! I have posted my health story here before, unfortunately no one responded, so I didn't get much response if people thought I could have Celiac. I do have skin issues, but it is not DH and so it can't be biopsied. The dermatologist said it was seborrehiac dermatitis.. gave me a steriod oil, sent me on my way.... I would continue typing but you can read...

    what do your scars look like after your DH flare up heals? I am trying to figure out if my dad and I have DH and it would be very helpful to see some responses.. I saw that one person here get's purplish scars after.. but what about you?

    I have been trying to figure out what exactly gene testing is for Celiacs, and how to go about it... but I am getting confusing responses. First I was under the impression that for gene testing they have to take blood, and then a wonderful lady here told me that it is a cheek cell swab that you freeze and ship. (for labs that only do ship away testing the...

    I am away from home at school, so I went to a friends house (scary I know). I actually got to cook my own food, so I actually had Thanksgiving (which I wasn't expecting being so far away from home)! -turkey drumstick and turkey breast with olive oil, salt, pepper in the oven -romaine and spinach with BRIANNAS dresssing -quinoa pumpkin mixture with...

    Yeah, I go to the Whole Foods in Andover usually. I go to a health food stores in Dover (Dover Natural Foods).. there are a few other places around, as well. Philbricks Fresh Market (very nice, very gourmet) in Portsmouth.. But honestly, Hannafords grocery store is amazing. It's what keeps me going. It's where I always shop for my normal groceries and special...

    MSG (monosodium glutamate) is a Nuerotoxin. Of course it causes problems! No one should have any amount of MSG. There are also 27 or so other 'names' that MSG hides under.. so be sure to educate yourself and READ those labels! check out these links: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Hope this helps...

    Don't feel so alone! We ALL struggle with this. For me, this year will be different. I am away from home in California at school. I won't have access to my pantry and my safe kitchen to cook things at. Instead of staying on campus and wallowing in my room (because of my food intolerances), I am going over to my friend Stephanie's for the break. I won't be...

    Usually when you do a colonoscopy they give you this special drink you are supposed to down. I makes you go, umm, alot of number two down there. Usually you have to go to the bathroom so much that you cannot be far away from a toilet. Most people that are doing prep for colonoscopies STAY home. However, it does not sound like you are doing this, which is...

    I am from the Seacoast/Lakes Region area of southern NH I go to school in CA, hence, the location next to my name..

    Read below.. Do any of you have suggestions for me? Which lab should I use for gene testing? Or does it really not matter? For me, I found that wheat was a HUGE issue, and that not eating wheat cleared up my symptoms almost 100%.. but there have been other things going on that should be clearing up and aren't. My father recently learned he has a problem...

    I haven't read this whole thread, BUT I understand what people here are saying. For me, I found that wheat was a HUGE issue, and that not eating wheat cleared up my symptoms almost 100%.. but there have been other things going on that should be clearing up and aren't. My father recently learned he has a problem with wheat, his problems have not fully subsided...
  24. nutrifoodie
    I've always assumed that too.. but is it true?
  25. nutrifoodie
    that really makes me think. years ago when I started having problems they did an IgG food allergy panel on me.. wheat came up, but not the highest possible in the range of "sensitivities" ... in February they did a whole GI panel, soy came up positive, but gluten/gliadin didn't. That test also told me I am VERY IgA defficient (stool). Could there be a connection...
