    Roda, thanks for your reply. The more I hear stories it makes me want to have the whole family go gluten free. My husband isn't really on board. Very picky. But my older daughter who is 4 has had white stools on and off and had oily stools, mostly her stools are pale tan or the color of applesauce. I know this is fat malabsorption and am familiar with it...

    I'm not sure if I wanna put her through the testing. Even the blood test. She is only 22 months and I can't even imagine trying to get a blood draw. I have a follow up in one more week and I will talk to the doc about it. I started her on some good probiotics 3 weeks ago. I really don't like giving her the meds either, and you are absoletly right about masking...

    Hello, it has been a while since I have logged on here. It was when I was pregnant with my daughter I discovered i had many food intolerance/sensitivies....gluten was a major issue for me, all celiac tests were negative of course. Anyways I have since been diagnosed with mastocytosis and gluten just happens to be one of my triggers. Now getting to my topic...

    Does anybody know what causes egg burps(sulfur burps)? I get them maybe twice a year. Sometimes I get a stomach ache with them and sometimes not. Also if anyone can tell me how to get ride of them that would be great.

    I lost 30 pounds in 6 to 7 weeks by eating meat,fish,eggs and veggies only. No fruit. After that I started have maybe on piece of fruit a day and 1 day a week I had a cheat day. This was all before I knew I had a issue with gluten. Felt great while doing this diet. I also exercised 5 to 6 days a week...walking/running with restistance training. The restistance...

    You can do soy...most coffee stands will offer soy. You can make your own lattes with the flavored coffee creamers like coffee mate. They are lactose and gluten free but they might have sodium casienate......not sure off the top of my head.

    Thanks for the info. Scary...nitrates seem to be in everything. Even my organic spinach?

    I would like to make some of my own nitrate free breakfast sausage or buy some and I'm noticing that a lot of natural recipes call for naturally occuring nitrates like celery powder or juice. My question is are all nitrates the same? Naturally occurring or chemical added. I'm confused. Whats the difference between the bacon I buy that has nitrates in it versus...

    I used to use Jay Robbs egg white protein and loved it until I found out I was allergic to eggs. But they now have a rice protein with no soy lethicin,no dairy or casien and no eggs....so it was perfect for me. The rice protien definetly takes some getting used to. But every kind of rice protien I have tried tasts kind of gritty or chalky......it's just kind...

    ARCHIVED Sulfites

    missybean replied to Rhonda's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    This awesome information to know....thanks Rhonda! I loved the info on how to make your own formula. I didn't realize how often sulfites are used....I was just trying to avoid processed meats. Man it's in everything.

    I'm wondering if anyone has any insight on this subject. I recently found out I have IgG delayed food allergies to eggs, soy, and casien and I'm wondering...since these issues really starting flaring up during pregnancy....does that mean that my baby is going to be allergic. I'm kind of scared because I think a lot of the vacccines they give babies are made...

    About a year when I was in a lot of pain and having many issues my primary doc thought I had RA and suggested we do the test for it which could possibly come back negative which is very common I guess. It did come back negative but she strongly felt I had some kind of autoimmune disease since they run in my family and I already had one. She suggested that...

    My question is can I take any regular recipe where it called for regular flour and use my gluten-free flour in place of it. So like for instance.....if my apple cake recipe calls for 2 cups of flour can I use two cups of my gluten free flour mixture? Is it cup for cup?
  15. missybean
    Marsha...I can certainly relate. I'm six months pregnant. Goin gluten free was hard but then when I found out about my other food allergies the search began and I still struggle. I can't have gluten, soy, eggs , casien, tomatoes and potatoes and almonds. Potatoe, tomatoes, and almonds I tested as low reactive so I was told to stay away for a month or so and...
