    Wow, that cake mix sounds delicious! How long do you bake it for and at what temperature? I will definitely be making it! Thanks! Janie

    I take Align, a probiotic, everyday. I started taking it back in May and tried going off it a few months later. However, as soon as I went off it, I started bloating up again pretty badly and had intense stomach pain. I have IBS, so it's really helped with my IBS symptoms related to other foods I eat. You might want to give it a try. Good luck!

    Breyers has actually gotten in trouble lately for not listing wheat as an ingredient, even though they add it along with another ingredient. It's likely you've been glutened by several of the items on your list. I stay away from Breyer's, as they're not trustworthy enough to be up front about their ingredients right now. Blue Bunny will list any allergens...

    Haha! You can find me in the supermarket aisles with my cell phone, calling the 1-800 numbers on the back of each label before I put it in my cart...people must think I'm crazy!

    I would imagine that the high number of people diagnosed positive through Enterolab is because people with no symptoms aren't likely to send for a $400 test. Probably, nearly all, bar a few, order the test because they are sick and have researched and found that their symptoms match those of gluten intolerance and are curious to know if it truly is the problem...

    As far as I know (which isn't much!), I was under the impression that gluten intolerance is when your body produces a reaction to the presence of gluten, making you sick. Celiac disease is the point at which the villi in the intestines are actually damaged and it is visible. I may be wrong, correct me if I am, but this is what I had read awhile back. I would...

    I bought Cecelia's Gluten Free Guide a few weeks ago and was super excited to have such a long list gluten free items in my hands, but I do want to throw out a caution. There are a few items listed that are NOT gluten free and I'm not sure why they won't remove them. For example, Tylenol Rapid Release Gels are listed as being gluten free in the book, but...

    I got sick to my stomach the other day...after drinking Gatorade!! The only thing I can figure that made me sick is the high fructose corn syrup. I stay as far away from it as possible usually, but I was trying to keep myself hydrated (I've had a sinus infection all week). I have definitely noticed that when I drink things with high fructose corn syrup, I...

    Yeah, I'm having the same problem here. I've always been very underweight and in the past year, I've dropped several more pounds and I'm afraid to list my weight for fear that someone will send me to the hospital Rice, potatoes, vegetables, fruits, and nuts just aren't cutting it for me calorie-wise. Unfortunately, for years, the bulk of my calories...

    So I moped most of yesterday and cried a lot last night because I was craving spaghettios so badly and my son was eating them for dinner. But then my mom called me and was telling me about her friend. Her friend has rhuemetoid arthritis and is in severe pain everyday. The meds that she is on are killing her liver, so they're switching her to another medicine...

    Hahaha! Makes more sense now! This made my day...thank you!

    Wow, I can absolutely identify with this post and with the mention that going through this is similar to the stages of grief when you lose a loved one. I'm having such a hard time giving up so many foods I love. Some days I don't eat anything. Some days I can hardly get out of bed. I can't visit other people right now because I see all the food they're eating...

    If you can get your hands on a bread machine, Pamela's Bread is the BEST I've had so far. I've only been gluten free for a little over a week, but I've tried several breads already, many of them ending up in the trash. When I made Pamela's Gluten Free Bread, I was super excited because I'd read so many great reviews about it, and my house smelled so good...

    This is a bit confusing for me, because I just contacted Kellogg's last week and they assured me that Eggo Syrup and the fruit snacks are gluten free. I checked the website today and the products are still listed as being gluten free. I don't understand...if they change a product, they should put in on their site or at least let me know on the phone. Gr!...

    Thank you!! I just bought a box the other day and was wondering how they would hold up in the freezer, since I don't think I'll be eating the entire box at once. Not that I'd not like to...

    Hi, I'm currently on a gluten-free trial diet to see if my symptoms go away. I've been researching and contacting companies to make sure products aren't contaminated with gluten, and I've been finding so many companies that list their products as gluten free, but also mention that their gluten free products are manufactured in the same facilities as wheat...

    I just purchased a box of chocolate chex yesterday and my box was labeled "gluten free." I do have an older box from several months ago, though, that still has gluten in the ingredients. Some stores still have the old boxes on their shelves. I know I am also sensitive to chocolate, and if I have too much chocolate in a day, I get the bloating and nausea...

    I'm currently trying to go gluten free for awhile to see what happens. You mentioned a month or two...is this how long it will take to start seeing results if gluten is the problem? Or will it just take a week to start feeling better? Thanks!

    Sorry, I worded what I said wrong. I know it doesn't diagnose celiac, but it would tell me if I have a gluten sensitivity, which would give me some answers as to why I'm sick the way I am. It would give me the information I need to know if I should go on a gluten free diet. I'm afraid the bloodwork wouldn't give me those answers.

    I'm almost certain that I am gluten intolerant. Over the past 8 months I've had: Stomach bloating Intestinal bloating/gas Nausea Severe exhaustion Inability to concentrate Full body aches Joint pains My doctor ran a full panel of bloodwork, minus testing for celiac, and anemia and thyroid problems were ruled out. My problem is that I don't have...
