I was always curious about this. I know that if you are super sensitive, even the smallest traces will mess you up, but for someone who is not so intolerant, small amounts of gluten or dairy or not as bad drinking a tall glass of milk or eating a big croissant, right?

Hello, I was really interested in trying out Okra Pepsin based on the description of what it does (It digests the mucus that coats the walls of many people

Looking to buy OTC Gluten-free NSAID for my daily knee pain. I have up till this point not been following a Gluten-Free diet AT ALL and I think that's why I have the knee pain. Regardless, I'm trying to buy some NSAID that will reduce pain, but will not damage my liver too much if I take it for 2-3 weeks till I can hopefully see a doctor. Please tell me your...

The thread title says it all. There is a thread from '06 somewhere when I check the search engine, but alot could've changed since then. I know that there is some sort of Celiac Disease center in NY, but they don't take my insurance and want $500 for the initial visit. I was wondering if anyone else in the area may have a recommendation. Thanks.

Let's say that you are not using wheat, corn, or oats. Is it still possible to make some sort of granola type bar? What do you use? I have read that you place the ingredients on a cooking sheet, bake, and then cut the pieces to the desired size (bits may be better than bars). Anyway...what have you tried? Also, I was told that sharing a microwave with someone...

I am actually about to purchase a dehydrator. This sounds dumb even as I type it, but if I want to use a dehydrated onion slice in place of a fresh onion slice in a meal, would I just drop it into the pot like there was no difference between the 2?

Thanks, but I am only dealing with a mini-fridge, and, while it is not "that" mini, it doesn't really have a freezer. I don't want to deal with chopping or slicing the onions. I know I must sound extremely lazy right now, but I do have fatigue issues. I want to just be able to open the fridge, grab my Ziploc bag of already peeled onions, and throw a few into...

As I am the only one in my home of 5 that will be following any sort of elimination diet, I have now come to the realization that I will start cooking for myself. Other than the fact that I can't really cook, and that my ingredient list will now be more limited, I think that I can handle this. There is alot of useful info. on these boards for avoiding cross...

Thank you all for your responses. I guess I'm uppin' this thread to see if there is any new opinions out there. You guys have reassured me for the most part though.

I am looking for one that is milk-casein, corn, and soy free. Any suggestions, or names would be good, and I'll do the further research. Thanks.

I haven't read through the Manganese benefits yet (I've been busy), but I just randomly read in wikipedia (usually a good source) that 1 serving of pineapple provides 91% daily value of Manganese Then again, because our systems are damaged, we may not be able to absorb it from the pineapples. Because I eat pineapples often. Maybe I am getting enough. I...

I just called the Breathe Right folks and asked if the strips contain gluten. They said "no". Then I asked if the adhesive is derived from and "food product" such as corn, soy, etc. I was told that it says it is "a medical grade adhesive, an acrylic type" I guess that means it has no "food product", right?

If you share a kitchen with others who DO eat gluten, what do you do about the microwave situation? Its easier to get your own plates, utensils, etc., but do you also think you should get your own microwave? If I covered my glass bowl with a glass plate, would my food inside still be free from contamination?

Just stopping in to say: Thank You very much for your reply. I am very busy right now and will look at that info. a little later when I can properly "digest" it. Um...in the store yesterday I saw Maganese or Magnesium in powder form. It was the NOW brand, which was recommended because its free of gluten, soy, and many other potential problematic foods.

So, there was a post not too long ago about Liquid Iron Supplement: I take Floradix Floravital Iron & Herbs liquid. IT is supposed to allow iron to be absorbed more easily for those that are not having success absorbing the iron from tablets or pills. In that thread (located somewhere in this forum), someone else mentioned that it wouldn't absorb the...
