  1. Not that I plan to post on this board anymore since I have seen some pretty rude and snide comments made (HUH?), but I have recently read that yeast extract was made of barley which in my humble opinion made it off limit to celiacs. Unless that is if someone here wants to press the point that it is NOT. Because of confusing data such as this a forum is...
  2. On celiac.com it is stated "Soy and Msg are examples of products that many celiacs have trouble with". I have been reading over and over again that MSG is a problem. Not only is it a problem for celiacs but it is a problem for many people. MSG is not in any way shape or form healthy. Just because something is gluten free doesn't mean that it is always...
  3. The MSGtruth.org site in reference to celiac sprue writes; "We have recently found that many persons who report a sensitivity to MSG also report an inability to tolerate wheat products in general. This seems an odd coincidence until we realized that grain products have been bred to contain more and more gluten which is very high in the amount of glutamic...
  4. Maltodextrin (I hate to burst anyones bubble here) many times contains MSG. Just because something may be labled MSG free it doesn't mean that there isn't any hidden msg in the product. The truth in labeling campaign (you can find them on them web) has been trying to fight this for years. In order to find out for sure if it is msg free you need to call...
  5. I have been using a suplement called Living Fuel which is similar to the supplement you have been referring to. Living Fuel does have barley grass and wheat grass. It is also claimed to be gluten free. I emailed the manufacturer about the Vanilla ingredient and I was assured that the product is gluten free. I have not had a problem with it at all. I am...
  6. Yeast extract has MSG in it so it NOT safe to eat for celiacs.
  7. The reason that you had such a reaction to the modifed food starch is more than likely because it contained MSG. As I have already posted MSG is hidden in many foods with innocent names such as calcium caseinate,autolyzed yeast,rice syrup,caramel flavoring,stock,dry milk solids, milk powder, natural chicken flavoring,citric acid (if made from corn). These...
  8. Maltodextrin often contains MSG which is a big NONO for celiacs (really MSG should be a big nono to all human beings). Many items that contain MSG hide that it is in the product. Carrageenan which is in alot of dairy products including icecream many times contain MSG. People need to contact the manufactuer when not sure. But do not call and ask if...
  9. As a matter of fact citric acid is a problem. Citric acid many times contains MSG which is off limits to many celiacs. MSGmyth.com and truthinlabeling.org are excellent sites that will give you a wealth of information on how msg is hidden in your foods. I recently had a rash that would not go away (good old comming back DH), I was very perplexed as...
  10. Someone mentioned Vitamin D supplements, Cod Liver oil is the best vitamin d supplementation choice. Before starting any vitamin D supplementation however, it would be a good idea to get your levels checked. It would also be a good idea to read up on the benefits of Cod Liver Oil, Mercola.com and Westonaprice.org is a great place to start. Cod Liver Oil...

    ARCHIVED Homeopathic Remedy

    Hi! I am so interested in nutrition since finding out I had hypothyroidism (which I diagnosed and my dr. finally confirmed). I also diagnosed my celiac disease, my DH rash totally disappeared after I tried a gluten free diet. And I must say I feel great!!! I am currently studying holistic nutrition, I see a holistic nutritionist to double check what...
  12. The reason so many people start to gain weight is that many glutenfree products have high glycemic ingredients in them. I have to read the ingredient list carefully to avoid this pitfall. I won't buy anything with potato flour or tapioca flours as they are just as bad for you as eating white bread. Many of the breads have these high glycemic flours in...
  13. There is a website Westonaprice.org that tells how soy is processed . The site also gives other excellent nutrition information. I have learned alot from that site. There is a mayo in Whole Foods that is in the gourmet section from France that is soyfree and my finace says it is delicious. It is in a plastic container.
