Newly Diagnosed and Advice Needed!
kareng replied to WADEIn's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I have found it would depend on the "quality " of the bar. Certain sketchy bars, I will only drink bottled cider (from the bottle). ? -
They might be but I wouldn’t feel safe eating them. I don’t think they train people on cc and Celiac safe food

Homemade shaped Chocolates

What does the flour do? Never heard of that before. And how cool is a dragon mold! -
Skittles
kareng replied to modiddly16's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Last time I bought some..... maybe a couple of months ago, they said gluten-free on them. I like Skittles and have no issues with them -
Can I trust this doctor?
kareng replied to CouldIbeCeliac's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If you want to continue looking at Celiac as a problem, keep eating gluten. I don't know why a doctor would tell someone to go gluten-free, if they don't have Celiac or a FODMAP issue! -
Gluten Free Asian Stir-Fry Sauces in Canada
kareng replied to aloha2u's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Do you have San-J in Canada? They make a good quality tamari ( wheatless soy sauce) and other sauces. It’s pretty easy to make nice sauces, just look up some recipes and use a gluten-free soy sauce. If if you are just going gluten light - the tiny bit of wheat that is in soy sauce shouldn’t matter -
Blood pressure meds causing refractory celiac!
kareng replied to 1desperateladysaved's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Medications causing Celiac? Not sure where you got that from. The first line of the article you link to says “mimics”, Not “causes”. “Olmesartan-induced enteropathy mimics celiac disease clinically and pathologically.” -
gluten-free Orange juice
kareng replied to kelley.m.'s topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
What did they say? I can’t imagine they are baking bread in an OJ factory! ?. Some companies will give you some statement about how they don’t test for gluten so they won’t say it’s gluten-free. I have had many different brands of OJ with no problem. But if you are really worried, fresh homemade juice is delicious. -
gluten-free Orange juice
kareng replied to kelley.m.'s topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Where would the cc come from? Oranges are not grown near wheat. The only thing they would produce in an OJ factory is juices -
A slippery slope
kareng replied to Emilia's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Were you eating gluten free and then before the week you ate gluten? If so, that would not be enough gluten for an accurate test. even if you don't have celiac, there is something going on. You and your parents need to insist that a doctor addresses it. There are lots of things it could be, many not sinister. FODMAP issues are quite common and have... -
A few years back, I emailed with a company that made these “ wheat” based paper plates, etc. it’s not actually the “ wheat” seed they are using. It is the leftover stem parts. So likely no protein in them at all.

Best Gluten-Free and Gluten-Safe Snacks for Super Bowl LIII
kareng commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
"Extra virgin" does not have anything to do with gluten. Dairy and yeast are not gluten and are safe for Celiacs.- 4 comments
-
I think we all know that chips are not a really healthy snack. But sometimes you might want to have some. Dairy is safe for Celiacs. there are people, Celiac and not Celiac, who cannot digest lactose (in dairy) or are allergic to dairy. But this myth of "gluten cross-reactors" is just a myth. I have no idea if the stuff about the oils has any scientific...

"bush's Best"- Baked Beans - Safe
kareng replied to KrisT's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
They do say they are gluten-free on the website. “Are your products gluten-free? All BUSH'S® canned bean products are gluten-free. We do use corn starch in some of our products, but it does not contain gliadin gluten from wheat, barley, oats or rye grains, which may cause adverse responses in people suffering from Celiac Sprue. In addition, a... -
Neuropathy vent/whine...why, brown rice?
kareng replied to selectivefocus's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Pernicious anemia is easily diagnosed ( by a doctor) from routine blood work. So, I am guessing, that if that is the type of anemia this poster had, they would know that. It can’t be diagnosed over the internet by patient- reported symptoms. However, whichever anemia they have ( I am not certain if we know that? I would need to go back and ... -
Coeliac results
kareng replied to decclj's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
In the US, it is usually less than 2 weeks. But with Christmas, it might be a day or 2 longer. If the results are going to the doctor & the doc has to review them first- that could add sometime on, too. I would call and ask. -
Gluten And Soy Free Cooking Spray?
kareng replied to Waitingindreams's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
The only ones I have seen with gluten are the ones used to flour a pan. Just read the ingredients. -
I would never advise someone who needs antidepressants not to take them because they maybe, might , cause some intestinal distress. I think the alternative to not taking them could be soooooo much worse.

Scott is looking into it. I got that message trying to use "report" to make sure he got a notification on this. lol Now it isn't letting me submit my comment! Try again

Coeliac results

Mine took about a week. Usually, in the US, 1-2 weeks -
I think you should complete your Elimination diet, be re-tested to see if it worked, before you go off the diet. Obviously, your refractory Celiac is why you went on it. If it didn't work, you will need to talk to your doctor about where you go next. PS. It is your small intestines healing that is the focus of the Fasano diet. Or maybe...
