We did plan out what restaurants & lunches we would eat each day... We also called the restaurant a month before going for reservations & each morning we called to tell...

I never use Bob's Red Mill but Many of us use it after the date... Always check the date before buying... But if it was stored in a dry, cool spot it will be fine....I use NOW brand & I don't think it smells so maybe someone who uses BRM will comment about the smell..... I know people on another site tha tuses it indefinitly with no problems.... -

ARCHIVED My 13 Year Old Is Going To Try Going Gluten-Free
mamaw replied to Jenn624's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Before he goes gluten-free why not have the testing done ? He is school age & may need documentation for school. If he goes gluten-free & feels better it will be hard to get a correct dx's. A person needs to be eating wheat & gluten to get a proper , correct dx's. It will make things much better for school if he does testing first.... I don... -

ARCHIVED Does Having Other Food Allergies Do Damage Also?

ARCHIVED Does Having Other Food Allergies Do Damage Also?
mamaw replied to Macbre's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
soy would be an allergy to soy not an autoimmune disease as celiac. ... soy is one of the major allergrens...but it will not blunt your villi to my knowledge. But casein (dairy) is also digested at the tips of the villi.. You may want to test for dairy intolerance Also since you are new to the gluten-free diet please understand that healing doesn't happen... -
Glad you found a keeper.It isalways a PLUS when a mainstream doc will actually listen... Would you share the doctors name for others who may be interested...as they are hard to find, good ones that is!! thanks mamaw

I use it at times but was told if you use it constantly the effect will not do the job it was intended to do. So I use it sparingly....and it states right on the box NOT for celiac or gluten problems.( Not exact words) ...

ARCHIVED Foods & Nutrition Class

One thing is if he is very sensitive-- you may not want him in the cooking room at all....... kids with flour isn't always a good scene... flour can stay ariborne for hours... We opted to either bake at home with video & take end product to school or to have an extra gym class or library time ....also we use a different room when cooking is not involved...
