Yesterday my husband and I went to VG's Food center and found a gluten free food list at the service counter. I thought this was very interesting. I am always looking for new things that are gluten-free, and different places that are easier to shop. When I picked up the list I was surprised to find that it was 2 pages long. It was organized by category, product...

I have always had DH, and the drs could never tell me what it was. Went gluten free and found this forum. That's how I found out. I have been gluten-free for a year now, except for occasional cross contamination - maybe once every 4 mo. I have had a scope done recently without eating gluten and they were still able to give me a positive for celaic. I might...

I am very sorry to hear you have had such a bad experience. I hope it isn't food poisoning, but then again being glutened is essentially food poisoning. I feel for you. Every time I get contaminated I go through the exact same thing. I will have severe flu like symptoms, run a high fever, break out with dh and eczema. My body will get rid of it any way it...

So I heard that propel had some new flavors and have added extra vitamins to help hydrate! Just what every celiac needs - extra hydration - turns out to be not so great for me! I though it could be good. Propel has always been gluten free, and helped with my dehydration issues immensely! I usually get the little flavor packets to carry in my purse just in...

As of recently I had a scope done. I have been gluten free for a year now and had to have a scope done because I am still bleeding. The Dr. thought that I might have colon cancer. Very scary at 29. I watched my grandmother go through a lot of the same things. She passed away in her mid 50's. When the scope results came back there was no cancer. THANK...

I use Nutribiotic brand Grapefruit Seed Extract {not grape seed} because it is "safe and all natural". The pills are what I take for like uti's, and when I feel like I am getting an infection from my heart going bonkers lol I also have it in liquid form. If you don't want to purchase both - because it can be quite pricey depending on the size-...

Thank you for your post!! I am looking into this - it was a very interesting article - I had never heard of this before. I knew about the green tea and have been taking that off and on. {as much as my body will allow} I try to solve things the best I can by using a natural approach, as I am allergic and intolerant of so many things. I use GSE...

My son is 7 now. He occasionally {about 3 - 5 times a year} has random pain, fever and unexplained clumsiness. I see this and think of all the times I went through that as a child. I have had the Dr give him the blood test for Celiac and it came back negative. I know that blood test isn't always accurate. I am on a very strict gluten free...

"I'm sick but I'm pretty." I was always told not to complain because I had it good compared to my autistic cousin and aunt with Cerebral palsy. Agreeing with this I suffered year after year silently as I could imprisoned in my own body knowing something was wrong. So here it is about the real - sick - me. If you take the time to read this I thank...

Thank you for posting this really did put my mind at ease a bit. Especially the tip about going gluten free and after 5 yrs our chances of cancer go down. I hope everything is going well for you and your family as well!!

The test was positive for blood and then the Dr sent that to the lab to check for cancer cells and they found some. Well I had a scope done yesterday and guess what NO CANCER YAY!!! The Dr still seems to be concerned about the bleeding though they really didn't see much wrong. Hopefully my intestines are still just healing from the celiac - keeping fingers...

I am very sensitive to maltodextrin as well. It is nasty and is found in A LOT of things. It is also used a lot on seasoning in chicken in restaurants. - be careful!! The bad part about maltodextrin also is that it can be produced with several different ingredients INCLUDING WHEAT and they don't have to specifically list it!!!

Interesting topic I have had kidney stones about 4 times a year for about 8 years now. I also have a build up of calcium in my joints. I rarely eat/ drink dairy because of the digestive consequences - plus it gives me really bad acne. I don't take calcium supplements or anything like that. I don't digest it properly. I figure {myself not dr talking} that...

I have celiac and was just diagnosed with colon cancer - I am 29. My grandmother was 52 when she died - body was filled with cancer and she was a diabetic - suspect celiac as well. Grandfather had it when he was in his 40's Several of my family members have had colon cancer at young ages and several are celiacs and a few are autistic as well. No one...

I have seen a few other posts about this, but none that were real recent. Hoping someone has some advice or something. I am 29 - a bit young to have cancer I know. My Celiac was just diagnosed last Nov. It had caused a series of problems from heart arrhythmia to my organs just shutting down. I have had the symptoms and digestive problems my whole life...
