    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    Well, see, that was my problem. The label has none of those things on it. No gluten info, no allergen info, no contact number to call to check. So I gave up and let him have some and he seemed fine so I guess it's gluten free. But I'm not happy with Walmart for making it so hard to ask a simple question.

    My boyfriend got some Sam's Choice Pink Lemonade and regular lemonade at Walmart as a treat for our son who just went gluten free. I read the ingredients and it has "natural flavors". But there's no phone number and the walmart website doesn't have any gluten info on any of their products. So how can I find out if it's ok besides simply trying it? I can...

    I love how the article above the exercises disses patients who think they have a problem with wheat, but then at the bottom they advise patients avoid bread, malted products, beer, vinegar, and soy sauce! rotfl

    There are no official stats on it, which is something I'd like to do myself in grad school, but from what I've seen on forums and from an informal poll I did, there are a lot of people with Narcolepsy that could benefit. The Narcolepsy genes have also been found to be Celiac genes. IMHO it would be beneficial to screen all Narcolepsy patients for Celiac...

    Wait until at least 6 months of age. It takes babies a few months to grow a proper lining in the gut and introducing gluten before then could increase her risk of getting Celiac later.

    Well, I do believe there is evidence that desensitization works in some cases. And this group found positive results in doing this treatment in mice. Of course, mice aren't humans, so we'll see how the human trials go. They indicate the treatment takes months to complete. My issue with the whole thing is in calling it a "vaccine". It's not a vaccine...

    Cool! It's grain-free. Very awesome! I will have to try it when it comes out.

    I'm sorry, I just can't get excited about the prospects of injecting myself with gluten to make me not sensitive to gluten. If it was any other type of cure I'd be thrilled, but this just seems like certain death, in a way. I'm just too sensitive to gluten...how could injecting it into my body for months and months be a good thing? I spend so much time...

    They were being extremely insensitive to your daughter. There is nothing ruder and more hurtful than your teacher forcing you to watch the whole class eat in front of you and announcing to everyone that you're left out on purpose because your mom forgot you. Of course you didn't forget your daughter. It was irresponsible of them to pass all the accountability...

    My consumption went down, too. I was always starving even when I ate. It seems like after my body could finally start digesting, I didn't need as much food and I digested it longer. The weight loss hasn't been as much as I'd have hoped, but it feels like there was quite a bit of damage done, so maybe there's still hope for me once I've healed more.

    Yeah, I'd get a copy of that report. Even doctors misread lab results. Mine sure did with my thyroid. "You're right in the middle of normal" was in actuality hypothyroidism!

    I get puffy fingers, neck, torso, and sometimes feet. It can get really bad. Many years ago it was so bad my skin hurt because it was so tight. I haven't noticed a direct relation to salt...for me it's more related to gluten and sugar consumption. It definitely gets bad if I eat wheat bread. People talk about getting bloated belly from gluten, but for...

    It's here! It finally made it to my local grocery store! I just had a big bowl. It was wonderful. I have loved this cereal for years and couldn't figure out why it made me sick until I learned about gluten. But now it's gluten-free!! Finally I can get big boxes of regular cereal like the rest of the family! Not overpriced dinky boxes of Glutino O's...

    UR my HERO! My mom has a good chocolate cheesecake recipe. I should find it and convert it. It's really quite good. If only I could remember where I put the recipe....hmmmm....
