    i have been waiting for a follow up email to say whether products are gluten free and a SILK buyer is looking in to it; I will post. Company was bought out by a larger Co. and they have changed packaging as they now h are buying soybeans from China now due to increased load I suspect and can't regulate. This means they now have organic and regular brands...

    Thanks for the info. I wonder if it is because Silk milks are no longer marked as gluten free?

    ARCHIVED Trouble Finding A Doctor

    songstressc posted a topic in Doctors

    just moved to Denver Colorado and really need to find a good pain specialist -one that open minded. I apologize if this isn't the kind of doc to ask for; I just thought maybe there is someone who is gluten-free and also has a pain issue. If there is a website I should go to instead of this forum please let me know.If there is a Doc that you think is amazing...

    I accidentally came across this information. I was inquiring as to whether either the silk brand eggnog or pumpkin drink were gluten free as there is no certification or listing of it as gluten-free. I emailed the company and inquired as to whether the eggnog or pumpkin was gluten free. I got this response: Currently, gluten is not considered one of...

    If evacuating is hard for anyone there is a natural way to try; take magnesium start with the lowest amount say 100mg daily if no results add 100mg every two days until you clear out. This will tell you how much you need. magnesium is good for the muscles. I have tried everything and this works! if you take too much you will become too loose - if you had...

    A good site is A Year of Slowcooking the site address is crockpot365.blogspot.com i used to throw stuff together in the morning ( or prep night before ) and it's great to come home and have dinner ready! I have made stews, soups, casseroles, - i think this site will give you some good ideas.

    I have not used them yet but I did email them about Teff and they emailed back that they get the Teff from a farmer who only produces Teff so it is not a gluten-free concern. Their site says they started up in relation to supplying those with allergies etc. They also have Sorghum berries which I have not tried yet. Don't know yet if Sorghum is gluten-free...

    I am interested in using lecithin and I know you can by it liquid - I tried to find it at our health food store and they did not have it and I actually found it at our vitamin store super supplements, so you might try getting some there. If you used it you'd have to adjust the liquid/flour recipe by a little - I am not totally sure but I think 1T of lecithin...

    I tried the original recipe tonight and we had burgers on buns for the first time since going Gluten-Free! This is great and opens up ideas for many things! Thanks for the post!!

    thank you so much for the input! Funny the two mills I was looking at was the Nutrimill and I believe it was the Country Living Mill - this was the only one that was both hand crank and electric. I may not be strong enough to crank it but my husband could. I think a lot about all the electric things I am used to in the kitchen - We both want to plan to be...

    I highly reccommend the late Betty Hagman's The Gluten Free Gourmet Bakes Bread . I only started the gluten free life very end of Nov 08 - just about 6 months for me and I have learned so much from her book and some of the great sites that are out there incl this one. She has a recipe for Cinnamon Swirl Bread in there - have not tried it yet but everything...

    I notice that a lot view my posts but I don't receive replys. Am I not posting properly? Please if anyone has any info to help about grinding grains and also where do you shop for all your grains? Prices really vary. Thanks to anyone who replies!
  14. songstressc
    I would really like to buy the whole grains of Teff, Amaranth, Millet and the other grains I use and make my own flour. I have looked and looked online and there does not seem to anything hailed as clearly working. Some say use a coffee grinder which I have already tried and just as I read it did not grind fine enough . I am stumped? Any success stories...

    I purchased The Gluten Free Bible - and this book is full of helpful suggestions on travel AND has pages in the back that you can photocopy in many languages. I wonder if the library in your area would have this? Probably in Mexico you can just speak English but good to know about these pages for future travel. you can photocopy them and hand them to the...

    Thank you for the suggestions! As the car wouldn't start etc. he is now flying to Denver and staying in Fort Collins for a major part of the trip. Now he has some places to take Dad to dinner in Denver! Any other Fort Collins places that are good would be great if there is anyone out there who has any more suggestions. Thanks so much!

    I read recently that a Saliva Test is NOT a good indicator of a true gliadin (gluten) count? Both myself and my partner were diagnosed this way; My son may get tested and I want to make sure he has the best test. This is the first I heard that a saliva test is not good ; Is this true OR all the tests not definitive; ie giving false negatives possibly. clear...

    If anyone has any good places to eat, shop in Colorado my partner is travelling from Seattle to Denver soon and will need to shop for and sometimes eat out in Gluten free places. If there are any good places in Colorado that are good especially Fort Collins, Boise Idaho , Idaho Falls, Cheyenne Wyoming - this is his route we would really appreciate any reccommendations...

    I am shocked! If Rice Dream contains gluten for sure then that is where I have been glutoned from 2 weeks ago! I have wracked my brain trying to figure out where. For sure gluten ? Why?

    Hi Chrissy B, I bought my coconut oil from Tropical Traditions online. It is cheaper if you get one or two people to go in on it. I have used coconut oil for : Baking muffins, cakes, cookies etc. it is terrific. It works great on your skin; it really soaks in and helps for ex. i had really dry hands from garden work last year and moisturizer would not do...

    Here are a couple of recipes; These recipes are filled with fiber ie the lentils and veggees and lots of protein. I have a list of items and apices to stock kitchens with. Let me know if you would like it. These are basic recipes; you can adjust to your tastes. I hope this is clear; I also don't know how much you know so let me know if you have questions...

    I think I read a question on how to beef up on protein and I could not reply ; We are mostly vegetarian and to keep up on protein we for example: We eat a salad with toasted pumpkin seeds -2T is a good boost - I toast my own seeds as they taste better than the toasted salted ones. I just throw them in the oven for 7-8 minutes at 350F We also sprinkle...

    I recently made lemon poppy seed muffins from elana'spantry.com - it is very easy and I made mini muffins in minutes. Sorry I do not know much about coco flour and I am interested in other recipes too. I have noticed that a lot of eggs are used with this flour and I have read that you should not use more than 1/4 of it for your flour in recipes. Elana's...

    Hey good for you angel0251 - sugar is my problem too. Instead of 1 day at a time for me it is one minute at a time! It is so easy to eat too many TJoes cookies with tea! I find staying interested in what I am doing helps a little.

    I am not giving up - it has been difficult as I have been pretty much immobile almost 2 weeks and it is hard to turn away Trader Joe's Gluten free cookies with a cup of tea. I think it will be much better when i can get out for walks etc. Hooray for turning away those chips! If I am really in the mood for taters I make baked fries great and completely guilt...
