  1. I just thought of this- Before you and the other kids and the dad go gluten free, get tested. It's really hard to go back on gluten for testing later. That assumes you were planning on everyone being gluten-free, it's not necessary, but easier at home.
  2. You might find this helpful? I haven't read it but its from a reputable source. Open Original Shared Link In the US, wheat has to be labelled as an ingredient. You would also want to look for barley/ malt and, rarely, rye. I don't know of any drinks that have gluten except for a malted milk shake or some of those " health" drinks with wheat grass...
  3. I copied recipes out of different recipe books so I can find them. And any other recipes and put them in sheet protectors in 3 ring binders. You can get them out and wipe them clean if you slop on them.
  4. And she already uses Crest, so you don't have to change. Many other toothpastes are gluten-free, too. Those are the 3 major brands so its easy to choose something. As for "approved by the doctor", you need to be careful of this. Very few doctors have any idea what is in a product. You should read the ingredients for yourself. It sounds like they...
  5. What toothpastes have gluten?
  6. Then it should be fine. And it's only a concern for things that get in your mouth - so shampoo or lotion might be, toothpaste ( never seen any that aren't gluten-free), lip balm ( a few have wheat germ oil listed ). Open Original Shared Link
  7. Your 5 year old uses deodorant? I wouldn't worry about that being gluten-free. Nor the detergent. Shampoo and options that can get in her mouth are a concern. Usually, a shampoo or lotion will list wheat germ oil or something like that. I have never seen a toothpaste with gluten in have US. Take a deep breathe. I don't know how you did all that...
  8. I don't really like the tomato and mac and cheese thing - right or wrong. I haven't seen my current "MIL" in about 5 years. Hub has seen her two or thee times so we know she is still around.
  9. The soup my hub wants when he is sick - Noodles cooked in chicken broth. Youngest son likes some rice in chicken broth. Sometimes I will sneak a few shredded carrots in while the rice or noodles are cooking. There are 2 things my dad can cook and wants to cook for himself - One involves hot dogs and thinly sliced potatoes in a casserole...
  10. I have posted the Cowboy Steak soup recipe. I thought it might be nice to make a place we could post soup and chili recipes. Newbies might like it too. I put the brand name of the things I used that might have gluten - like broth. Thought that might make it easier. I made my recipe with a bit more description that I might usually give. I know we get...
  11. Its Soup and Chili Season! I thought we could share some of our favorite soup and chili recipes. I'll do the first: Cowboy Steak Soup 1 lb boneless sirloin steak, cut into 1in x1 x1/4 pieces) 1 teasp dried basil 1/2 teasp salt 1/4 teas pepper 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 tbsp. oil 2 (14 oz) cans beef broth (I used 1- 32 oz box of unsalted...
  12. Looking at the blogs, it looks like views were recorded in Sept but not for October.
  13. I bet its invalid because you haven't eaten gluten in years and a few days isn't enough.
  14. I don't know a lot about Dh but I think the question would be - what do they look like before you scratch them? Also, I do know about ringworm and that is nothing like ringworm!
  15. Haven't seen this yet! Will look when I can get kid off the PC! So probably sometime tomorrow morning before 10. Not always as good on the iPad.
  16. What we Celiacs usually find if we " cheat" or get something accidentally is that we get sick - GI issues, migraines, DH, etc. I am guessing that you wouldn't have withdrawl from one incidence. Now, if you actually have celiac, cheating is very dangerous, even if you don't feel too bad. It starts the antibodies up and they start attacking parts of...
  17. And I read yours, too! And you didn't try to sell anything X rated!
  18. Metformin has GI issues for some people. My father started it but had to discontinue after a few weeks because it upset his GI system. And the banana thing? I use that as an example. I didn't intend anyone to think I was saying that bananas are a common problem? Bananas don't bother very many people so don't stop eating them just because 1 person has...
  19. I merged two topics here as the second seems to be a continuation of the first topic. This will keep all the info together and keep from having to repeat.
  20. That is odd. Previous blogs have a number of views. I view every new blog just to be sure no one is trying to sell us male enhancement products or fake passports. I even read yours, D, even tho I know you aren't selling things. So there should at least be my visit counted.
  21. " White" chili - actually it's more beige with yellow and red flecks ( corn and red pepper)
  22. I have never found an artificial sweetener with gluten. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link
  23. Do you have a copy of your tests? You might not have needed the Total serum IGA if they did an IGA and an IGG version. Some do it that way.
  24. It takes a few days. The samples have to be sent to a pathologist to be looked at microscopically. Depending on lots of things it can be 1 day to 10 days to get the results. Ask for a copy of them when the doc gets them.
