    A little background, I cannot tolerate artifical sweeteners like those in diet drinks and candies. They upset my stomach very badly. I am seeing Stevia pop up in certain foods and I'm wondering 1) if it is generally considered safe for celiacs and 2) if it is like regular sugar as far as effects on the body and digestion. I have no problem with regular cane...

    Does anyone have experience with the 365 Everyday Value essential oils from Whole Foods? I purchased the 100% pure peppermint oil but it is not labelled gluten free and multiple calls to the company have gotten me no responses. I have no idea about oils and if they are something that could or would be cross-contaminated and if this brand is known to be safe...

    I am trying to figure out what I got glutened from and I'm very confused about this product. I looked online and the FAQs say all Imodium products are gluten free except for Imodium complete. I can't figure out what that product is so I alled the company and they said that's what the Multi Symptom USED to be called. He said that the multi symptom does not...

    AngieJoy did you have any luck finding gluten free or certified gluten free Epsom salts? I'm extremely sensitive to cross contamination and can't seem to use ANYTHING that's not verified. Epsom salt baths significantly help my rls and muscle spasms when I get glutened but I want to make sure I can find and use soemthing safe for me. I'm disgusted at how rude...

    Thank you cyclinglady. My dog doesn't do well with grains anyway either so it works out. I have been giving her my leftover meat in her kong for treats as well. I never got glutened from Her ild food but it started to make her sick so I had to switch and I've heard good things about natures domains thanks!

    Maybe we have different levels of sensitivity, I have gotten incredibly sick from pet treats and chewable pet antibiotics. In pet food they can even use wheat starch and label it gluten free or grain free. My dog is all over my couch and bed and we snuggle a lot- if it's on her face its bound to get on mine.

    Does anybody have experience with Kirkland's natures domain dog food? Particularly the yellow bag of beef and sweet potato flavor. They are rain free dog foods but I know you can't be certain of some of the other ingreidents when it comes to pet products.

    Oh god no I never eat out! Ever. I pack all my food ahead of time and take it all in an ice chest. My boyfriend stays entirely gluten free with me for the whole trip as well. I absolutely cannot figure out where it's come from.

    Does anyone here have trouble with Aleve? I know that there are no gluten ingredients in the caplets but the company says that due to cross contamination their product might not be suitable for celiacs. However all of the threads I've found on it are very old but have many Celiacs saying they've never had a problem with it. I am trying to identify what...

    While not EVERYONE reacts to oats a lot of us do and most doctors and reputable celiac websites will tell you to stay away from them unless they are 100% gluten free grown and processed. Because of this I say it is absolute BS for a product to be labeled gluten free when it contains something known to make many celiacs react. I've heard of celiacs that don...

    The product also contains Barley - obviously Nerium is NOT gluten free. This is the day cream I'm talking about, not the night cream. I was finally able to get ahold of the one person at t he company that is educated on ingredients to speak with her. She claims that they have tested the product and that it's gluten free. She could not tell me who tested...

    Bartfull the main question I have I think is what is really the difference between corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup? I have googled it but don't really understand the answers. I KNOW that I cannot have corn syrup. But I still drink sodas and I don't know if the HFCS has more or less corn derivitive than regular corn syrup? I know the caramel color...
  13. livelifelarge24
    I will for sure although I already know in my heart the answer. From what I'm reading about the company online today they are awful and use toxic ingredients. I will never use it again but I at least want them to refund the hundreds of dollars I've spent on their supposedly gluten free products.
  14. livelifelarge24
    That is what I will switch to until I can figure out a solution.
  15. livelifelarge24
    That's where I'm at too! It's very hard for me to keep weight on.

    Thank you seejenrun. It must be hard to care for a kid with multiple food allergies. I have a hard enough time dealing with my own! I can't have eggs or nuts or pepper and it really depends on the day whether I can tolerate dairy or not. Frustrating but I'm still deteremined to get it all figured out!

    That's what brought me to this point - I eliminated the big obvious things a year ago and had immediate relief in symtoms but definitely not complete relief at all. I am still plagued with the symptoms that I know get MUCH worse if I ingest a blatant corn product but I don't know how sensitive I am or really where to start.

    I stopped my membership a long time ago - I did see results at first but they waned quickly and the packages kept piling up long before I could use them. I planned to use out the rest of the product and then probably stop altogether. I am in absolute shock over this. It is really important to me that I know - I do react to ANY product with gluten in it whether...

    Obviously I have water. I drink about a gallon a day. I did not transfer my Alhambra service from my house and am drinking water bottles instead - the portable sized Dasani and such.
  20. livelifelarge24
    I started using Nerium about 6 months ago after the company and the friend I buy it from both assured me that the products are all gluten free. Meanwhile I have definitely been feeling different - at times I think maybe I'm getting glutened somewhere and at others I think no, because I have such a consistent reaction to gluten and this hasn't been a full...
  21. livelifelarge24
    Holy cow! Plastic water bottles?! I am looking for info on that now and it looks like coco-cola/dasani use those for sure. I drink out of those all day every day. I switched to BPA free reusable bottles last summer and saw a huge improvement in my problems but that was becuase a doctor had recommended that for hormonal issues. When I moved I didn't transfer...

    Thank you so much for the reply. I figured I would start the elimination diet again the same way I did when cutting out gluten. It's just overwhemling because corn is EVERYWHERE and all I can really find online is info on actual corn allergies which is not what I'm dealing with (at least I don't think). When researching corn allergies I see info about corn...

    Hi everyone! I haven't been on here in a long time. Three years of being gluten free and doing well other than this chronic, ongoing awful pelvic pain. It gets much worse at times and a little better at other times. It took me until about a year ago to realize I am sensitive to corn and when I cut out corn chips and corn tortillas and anythign made with flour...

    I am going through a divorce and it's horrible. I've had diarrhea for 5 days and I any afford to be losing weight. Besides all of the scary what-if stuff going on in my head (having to get roommates that have gluten in the house, dating with celiac, etc) I immediately just want to stop this diarrhea so I can start feeling better. I hate taking pills and haven...

    Thanks for the replies! I actually stopped buying Bob's but I had 4 brand new bags given to me this week so I am attempting to use it for some recipes. I don't know if I can get past that smell though, no matter how free it was lol
