Hi everyone. I just wanted to let everyone know that I went to that new cupcake place in NYC yesterday. BABYCAKES. They make everything there and are very knowledgeable about the ingredients. Gluten, refined sugar, casein, dairy and egg free!! I tried the vanilla and carrot cupcake (carrot was awesome and the vanilla was good but a little dry) and...

Hi LR girl, I am eating sterks bread, the high fiber italian bread and the cinammon raisin bread. it is wonderful! After toasting, the breads taste so much like regular bread I couldn't believe it. it is crunchy and absorbs butter etc, unlike others I have tried. Hope you like it!! Linda

Hi everyone. Diagnosed about 8 months ago and on gluten-free diet since then. Was recommended to Glutensolutions.com website to buy Sterks high fiber italian bread and Schar pasta. After ordering both and now trying the Sterk's cinammon raisin bread, thought I would share my thoughts about both products. Schar pasta- I had been eating the tinkyada...

Terry, Boston Market posts a web site which lists which of their items are gluten free. Open Original Shared Link I have been eating there recently, always start out my order by saying NO corn bread or Gravy please and THEN tell them what I want. I watch to make sure nothing falls onto my plate etc and have not been sick at all over the past few...

Hi, not expecting yet, but in the process sometime soon. I asked my nutritionist about it (she works at a celiac center) told me to take regular adult multivitamin, vit b complex (which contains 400mcg of folic acid - all you need) and 1500 mg of calcium a day (works out to 500mg three times a day). If you need extra iron by tests, they can always add it...

Hi everyone. This is Linda- gluten free since 11/04. (Also egg intolerant.) Had to pass along my excitement after making a batch of Pamela's egg free chocolate brownies. My nonceliac hubby and I ate them last night out of the oven and then again today ( not warmed up) and they are DELICIOUS!! You can't tell there is any difference at all. I bought...

Sounds like it is not an allergy, but a reaction likely related to the celiac. My allergist told me that my 'intolerance' to eggs might go away after my intestines were healed, but that there would be no way but to wait until my antibodies and biopsies showed healing and then try again. On a side note, what do you use to replace the egg in recipes. I...

I agree with Richard, stay off if you are feeling well. I may be a newbie, but I have read enough to say that your blood tests (anti gliadin, endomyseal etc) should be negative if you are off the gluten, that's how they monitor your progress. Further, there are a few blood tests (antibodies) for celiac, none of which are 100%. People can be diagnosed with...

My pediatrician told me all rice cereal is gluten free. you can also check out the beechnut website which lists which of their baby food are gluten free Open Original Shared Link Good luck! I am still deciding what to do about my little one. I was diagnosed about two months ago and my little guy is almost 7 months. my pediatrician is encouraging...

Stef, Would love to know what happened with US Airways. I am supposed to fly with them in March. Good luck, Linda

Stef. Thanks for the tip! Have been having PB&J and butter and really enjoying it! Even my nonceliac husband is eating them! Linda

celiac -yes diabetes - no female Good luck with the project! Linda

Mel, I too have celiac disease, which was actually diagnosed while working me up for what turned out to be an egg allergy! I was gettting bloating, voming and diarrhea and the worst abdominal pain I have ever had ( and considering I had a baby 4 weeks before that was really saying something!) The combination is hard, as a lot of gluten free products or...

Thanks everyone for your responses. The doctor said we should start introducing food as we normally would ( a little more carefully b/c of my other allergies). I guess I am just worried that he will get sick and I won't pick up on it right away and then he will become malnourished which at his age could be very detrimental. I know I am overreacting, but...

Hi. I am newly diagnosed celiac (with newly diagnosed egg allergy as well) and am looking for some advice on how to handle an upcoming conference I am going to in New Orleans in March. I will be staying at a hotel ( no fridge in the room) and will have breakfast and lunch at the conference. For breakfast they usually put out muffins and bagels with butter...
