  1. I just ran my 23 and me dna through a bunch of engines. I don't have the genes for celiac (except one of the contributor genes and a bunch of generic autoimmune ones). I was "diagnosed" through enterolab around 2001. When I got my results, I went gluten-free immediately. 95% of my symptoms disappeared within the year. I'd had daily diarrhea for 13 years...
  2. after much research, I found out that mane n tail is gluten free and safe for use on animals. i've diluted the shampoo a lot and dissolved some of the conditioner in warm water to make a spray. it seems to be working pretty well.
  3. our plan with her is to keep it longish, but clipped. she's just so freaking cute with her fluffy hair. we will do a fair amount of thinning as well. so far, she only has her puppy coat. when her adult coat starts coming in we'll definitely get her clipped down until she has her full coat. I don't mind brushing her a couple of times a week, since i need...
  4. oh, and yes, she's on grain free food. we're thinking about doing a homemade diet for her, too.
  5. i tried your suggestions, and while they work better than no conditioner, they don't quite have the softening power she needs. she's a tibetan terrier puppy and has hair that's getting fluffier and longer by the day. as per the breeder, we give her a bath every 7-10 days with very mild shampoo formulated for puppies diluted 1 to 15 with water (really less...
  6. hiya all, anyone have any recommendations for gluten free dog grooming stuff? right now, i mostly need a conditioner/leave-in conditioner. every time i give my dog a bath i break out in a rash on my arms. i thought it was just because i'm a bit allergic to her. however, the last time, i read the ingredients for the leave in conditioner and there was...
  7. sulphur burps can be the result of foods not breaking down properly in the intestines of people with digestive disorders (like celiac). that was one of my first initial symptoms. it's so awful. i very very rarely get them since going gluten free. anyway, here's a link to an article that explains some of the causes of sulphur burps: Open Original...
  8. i know that pho van is sensitive to allergies, but they are super far from where i live. they also don't use gluten free noodles. where do the rest of you in portland get your pho?
  9. actually, it's the other way around. regular milky way has wheat flour in it. midnight is supposed to be safe. here are the ingredients... MILKY WAY
  10. those are good points. i can't understand it, it's the oddest thing. i was thinking that it might be a change in the chemical composition that's the problem. i don't know. i was hoping that someone else would have noticed the same thing. ah well, i guess it's just the way it is. thanks guys
  11. i guess it is all in my head
  12. i know that i have a problem with dairy. it's not bad enough to make me stop eating it, though . but, i'm wondering if anyone here has noticed a larger problem with melted cheese? i can have a piece of cheddar and be fine, but if i take the same piece of cheddar and melt it, about half the time it will give me d. maybe it's all in my head (i don...
  13. i tend to eat really simply during the day. i get most of my excitement out of dinner. but here are some ideas for each meal of the day... brekkie make fried rice-a couple of eggs, leftover rice, frozen peas and corn, sesame oil, wheat free soy sauce, dash of hot sauce if you like, onions, red peppers, garlic, ham, bacon, or mild sausages (kielbasa...
  14. i'm wondering the same thing. i'm going on a trip to ashland this week and i would like to know if there are any restaurants in the ashland area with a gluten free menu? anyone?
  15. does anyone have any idea why it was deleted? i'm not asking for names, just reasons, unless it was me. was it me? i can't think that what i wrote would have been incendiary in any way but i'm pretty sure i was one of the last to post. nothing really sticks out in my mind as obviously the culprit. anyway, no, there was nothing in particular that i...
  16. yesterday i replied to a thread about candidiasis and celiac. i can't seem to find it now. the thread, or my post, that is. has it been deleted or something?
  17. has anyone had non-standard allergic reactions to nuts? i'm curious what everyone's symptoms were before they figured out that they were allergic to nuts.
  18. i've been wondering the same thing myself for the last few years. i also have pcos. i did read something in an article about gluten intolerance causing overproduction of insulin. being that overproduction of insulin is a possible cause of pcos, i have to wonder. maybe we should all research it and post back here about anything we find. i'd never had...
  19. a cuke blended with some dill, lemon juice, and salt might make a good substitute.
  20. hi all, here's a strange proposition. i was trying to work with the people at bauman college (natural cooking and nutrition) to find out if they could accomodate my needs in their natural chef program. it seems they are unable to do that. however, the woman that runs the natural chef program in santa cruz might be willing to give me lessons in my...
  21. it's nausea that predominates for me. i have diarrhea too, but the nausea and stomach pain are what floors me. i've found that nothing works better for me than herbal tea with lots of honey and some lemon. it usually takes about an hour to work, but then i'm significantly better for at least the next few hours. then i just keep drinking tea and eating...
  22. from what i understand, that usually happens when someone needs more than one dose, but less than the next step up. as in, i'm slightly hypothyroid on .137 mg but hyper on .150. the doctor would then have you alternate to keep your levels optimal. that's what happened to me. i suppose there could be other reasons too.
  23. i'm not pregnant. thank the gods . now, of course, i'm wondering what is throwing my cycle off and causing me such nausea. mmmm, gluten, perhaps? i suppose i'll be looking closely at my diet again. take care all. bubble
  24. i decided that i should go see my doctor, so i made an appt for tues. thought you guys would like to know. i'll let you know when i know more. take care, bubble
