    i called back today and the representative confirmed that the natural and artificial flavors in the coffee are indeed gluten free.
  2. TearzaRose
    I accidentally picked up the Hazelnut flavored Market Pantry coffee at Target and since it's Christmas Day, the customer service offices are closed. Therefore, I can't call to ask about if the flavorings contain any kind of gluten. I am assuming they don't, but assuming has gotten me into trouble before. Does anyone know if the flavorings in the Market...

    you can buy them online. i just happen to live about a half mile from the manufacturing plant/store

    First of all, you need to stay away from the gluten at all costs! Secondly, some probiotics and digestive enzymes would probably do you alot of good. The healing could take YEARS, depending on the amount of damage that is done. So don't expect results quickly. Just eat healthy whole food with as few preservatives as possible. Hope you feel better soon...

    YAY! Good for you to start doing this....this is one of my new missions. For me, it's more about frugality and ridding my home and body of unnecessary toxins, when there are safe alternatives. There is so much CRAP in our products, it's scary. It reminds me of that old Lily Tomlin movie "The incredible shrinking woman." And like you said, we can learn...

    i'll occassionally have "gluten" dreams. i've been gluten free for about 5 months now and i've had several. it usually consists of me eating something that has gluten and then WHOA....suddenly realizing it's full of gluten, and then i get worried about the impending symptoms. the most recent gluten dream was that i was eating Mini Wheats Cereal. I realized...

    I personally like most of the Larabars. But, as with any manufactured product there will be flavors and kinds that are better than others depending on your preference and palate. I have a simple palate and prefer pure natural tasting stuff free of preservatives, additives, and funky colors and modifications. I cannot stand the thought of processed, nutrient...

    well, i just talked to my hubby about WIC because we juuuuuuuuuuuuuust fit the requirements. BUT, he said that it would affect our taxes in some way that we would end up not eligible for the earned income credit. so....back to square one!
  12. TearzaRose
    i recently came across a lot of testimonies that cocoa pebbles and fruity pebbles were gluten free and even processed on a separate manufacturing line. well, i was excited to treat myself to some because they smell darn good and satisfied my sweet tooth. a couple weeks ago i had a couple bowls-which was the ONLY thing i ate out of the ordinary and...

    this is actually part of the problem....i DO eat mostly unprocessed foods. and as we all know, it's cheaper to eat boxed crappy processed foods, than to eat fresh unprocessed stuff. my daughter and i go through soooo many fruits and vegetables it's ridiculous. i bought 2 lbs of grapes and it lasted 2 days. i can eat a pound of spinach a day. i eat 2-3 apples...

    I saw in another thread that someone from the U.K. got governement assistance in buying certain foods because of his diagnosed thyroid condition. Is there any kind of program in the U.S. to help lower income families purchase allergen free foods. I have several allergies/intolerances and even with coupons,farmer's markets,and "deals", the bills are still...

    not sure why the link isn't working, but if you just google "teen outsmarts doctors in science class" it should take you to the article.

    Open Original Shared Link Ok-so it's Crohn's and not Celiac, but the point is the same....DO YOUR RESEARCH AND TRUST YOUR "GUT" yes, pun intended. Anyway, after being tested by doctors and evidence disproving her instinct, she still followed through and got her answer. I know SO many of us here have dealt with false-negatives in being tested for...

    Recently I had someone tell me that those who have have food intolerances and allergies are more likely to also develop other food intolerances if over -exposed. I was joking how since realizing I was gluten intolerant, the majority of things in my kitchen besides fruits/veggies/and meats, were rice bread, rice cakes, rice chex, rice milk, rice, rice flour...

    I had some quinoa recently and loved the taste and thought it was so pretty with the little curly q in the cooked grain. ANYWAY, i ended up having a bad reaction from that too. i don't know why, but it seems most grains are becoming an enemy.

    You can also make your own oat flour this way.....provided of course they are gluten free or you can tolerate oats anyway
  20. TearzaRose
    I've always been discouraged by the price of "specialty" food items, especially gluten free flours. Well, laying in bed this morning I thought, "I wonder if I could make my own rice flour." Hmmmm... So, I got up and lo and behold,yes I can. And you can too! For a FRACTION of the price!!! I just took some cheap brown rice, threw it into my coffee...

    I saw her on Good Morning America this morning as I was flippin' through the channels! YAY!!! She admitted that she, too, self-diagnosed and was then confirmed by a doctor. I'll definitely check out her book.

    I've had the Celiac panel done twice---both times NEGATIVE BUT, that doesn't prevent me from avoiding gluten at all costs. I know what makes me feel like crap and I know how to avoid it. I don't need someone with a PhD in gastroenterology to tell me to not eat gluten. Also, those tests are NOTORIOUSLY unreliable. Even the biopsies if you have...

    I guess I was misinformed.......someone told me that casein was the protein in eggs. Great. looks like I'm intolerant to both casein and eggs.
  24. TearzaRose
    Some people with casein intolerance have said they are able to eat pasteurized egg products such as Better N Eggs and Egg Beaters. Before I test out that theory myself, has anyone else had that experience? are you able to tolerate the pasteurized egg products? and also, why? thanks so much!
  25. TearzaRose
    I have a host of digestive issues including Celiac, lactose intolerance, and casein intolerance. I know how highly genetic all these issues are considering my dad is lactose intolerant and my mom has undiagnosed GI issues and rheumatic fever. ANYWAY, is there any kind of testing that can determine how likely my 5 year old is to developing any of these GI...
