    I contacted them awhile ago and the larger (original) peppermint ones are gluten-free.

    ARCHIVED Energy Please.

    aaascr replied to lorka150's topic in Sports and Fitness

    I too, exercise everyday and have multiple food allergies along with celiac disease. What I have found so far: Blue Sky's Blue Energy is gluten-free for an energy drink. I use a sublingual B complex - B Total made by Neutraceutical Solutions - also gluten-free, this helps me from "crashing" which was a problem when I returned to my routine. The only...

    ARCHIVED Dry Hair

    aaascr replied to lyoung2's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis

    Are you getting enough protein in your diet? Dry hair - nails etc. is a lack of kerotin(sp?) If you aren't absorbing enough protein - this could one possibility.

    ARCHIVED Soy Allergy?

    aaascr replied to a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    In addition to the gastro issues - I get an asthmatic reaction from soy- I'm really allergic and have to check labels for soy that is not so clearly listed. It can definitely fatigue one!

    It is one of my most annoying pet peeves! I have always had a flat stomach - and now even with lots of daily exercise and being exceptionally careful with my food, health/skin products and surroundings, I still have a bloated stomach. It is not as bad as it once was - but it is not flat the way it used to be!

    Straight from the source: Thank you for contacting Burt's Bees. The Quality Resources Department Manager has put together a list of products that are "restricted" and should be avoided by Celiac and Gluten patients. For Celiac Patients - Gluten Restricted: Products Containing Wheat, Oat, Rye & Barley Derived Ingredients. Please AVOID...

    B vitamins create energy along with complex carbs - so yes they can keep you awake! I found a liquid b that is gluten free, it does have niacin which can flush your face for a bit, tastes good! Hasn't hurt my stomach at all. Nutraceutical Solutions Inc. 800-856-7040 Sublingual B Total They have a website - but I don't recall it for the moment...

    ARCHIVED Protien Bars

    aaascr replied to rogue1's topic in Sports and Fitness

    Thanks Michelle! Food allergies are: nuts, beans, soy, chicken, fish, beef, dairy(all inclusive proteins), eggs, bananas, apples, oranges, yeast, corn, oats and chocolate. Right now I'm able to digest Hemp seed but quinoa is starting to give me "issues". I have found Nutiva's Hemp Seed Bar - sometimes I can eat them - sometimes not. ...

    ARCHIVED Protien Bars

    aaascr replied to rogue1's topic in Sports and Fitness

    Thanks for listing the ingredients! Almost, but no cigars for me - I'm allergic to nuts and beans, as well as all the others mentioned (except sesame) - I think making my own is probably the way to go for me.

    You might want to see if you're getting enough potassium in your diet - as well as other nutrients, keeping in mind that you may not be absorbing enough even if you are ingesting it. Potassium will help eliminate the cramps. I had the sit-down and cry cramps at first, I kept a vitamin/potassium-rich drink with me to help out.

    Don't know what I'd do without my DGL!

    I was diagnosed some 20 years ealier of having allergies (not just intolerance) to dairy, eggs, and a lot of other proteins as well. Celiac was simply the icing on my already flat cake...

    Might explain why I'm allergic to most of the items in the "moldy" list
  14. aaascr
    I guess this is why Whole Foods supplement labels are changing: They used to list the allergen free items. Now it reads that their products are made in a facility where allergens are present. Looks like I'll be switching brands....

    Just some fyi Anyone looking for a good tortilla maker: Villaware has one @ foodsaver.com called Grand Uno Flatbread Maker

    I found Sublingual B Total liquid drops Nutraceutical Solutions 800-856-7040 www.eliquidsolutions.com I eat complex carbs (potato or rice) the night before training and/or games, take the liquid in the morning and then right before activity so that I don't "crash" during training and games. Worked like a charm during my recent tournament. I...

    I drink organic wines (they usually don't add sulfites) VidaOrganics - Malbec Rose - is on the sweeter side.

    ARCHIVED Gerd Or Gastritis

    aaascr replied to a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    My doc (holistic) recommended distilled aloe vera juice for my reflux - did the trick - you have to start off in small amounts though, can act like a laxative, something we don't need!

    I'll be bringing food and will have a refrigerator and microwave in my room. But - any suggestions on health food store? And maybe an evening place to hang out at (older crowd)? We're staying at Carolina Beach but will be exploring around after our games are done. This is my first time traveling gluten-free. Thanks for any info.

    Though they are sometimes hard to find: Sunshine Burgers - the organic and regular burgers are soy and gluten free. They taste good too. I have had to request that Whole Foods and Harry's (atlanta ga) order them for me. When I can't get them I make Quinoa Burgers. Basic mix: Cooked Quinoa Quinoa flour egg replacer (ener g) mushroom onion fresh...

    Whole Foods has a Gluten-free shopping list: They list their veggie chips on it, though I don't know how updated it is.

    Michelle, I eat a mostly vegan and organic diet, due more to allergies than anything. Since beans and nuts are out for me, my protein intake consists of quinoa, brown rice, sunflower/flax/shelled hemp seeds in various forms. Initially, I didn't think I needed a whole lot of protein either. Particularly since I'm late 40's age group. But....., I do...

    I was diagnosed with food allergies (but not wheat) 20 years ago, celiac only 6 months ago. I think your genetic make-up detemines the outcome.

    I was supposed to have ct scans with contrast (checking gall bladder etc). Because the testing center was not a hospital-type facility where they could handle an allergic reaction efficiently, I chose not to have the contrast nor did the technician feel comfortable about doing it. In GA they ask you if you have allergies on the paperwork. However, no...

    Oh my.. Thankfully, your mom has a daughter as tenacious as her mom. I don't know about home health care and iv's - but don't give up until you get your mom situated. Maybe there's someone on this board from her area that can recommend a better doctor. As far as what your mom is ingesting, it is critical at this point that she gets no gluten in her...
