    This is what it says on the website. This would worry me a bit because its the same equipment not just the same building. Maybe write or call them & find out what thier processes are? Post it here. They might be Ok for most of us. I would want to know what the cleaning processes are. This product was packaged using equipment that also handles...

    Forgot - If you are newly gluten-free, it is not recommended that you eat oats, even gluten-free ones. It appears that about 10% of celiacs re-act to oats like gluten. It is recommended that you not try them until you have healed. I have seen it said that is 6 months to 2 years.

    We have a "bread" counter for the gluteny bread & crackers. I use red for stuff that is for gluten-free use. I put red duct tape on my PB & butter tub. I have red cooking utensils, red colander, red cutting board, etc. I have plastic containers with red lids. I use plastic baggies and will write on them my name if its only for me. I write "not...

    I hate people hovering over my plate or the serving bowls/plates. I hated that before because who wants people breathing on the food? I will say that, as you get some processes or procedures for your food in place at home, you will feel more relaxed. I have found myself calmly eating & then suddenly remember "gluten-free?" But its OK because we...

    ARCHIVED All Nuts?

    kareng replied to alexsami's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Not all nuts are processed where they process wheat. Try one type of nut at a time. Maybe one or 2 bother you but not all. Not sure how big the bag you ate was but maybe it was too much. Even tho its healthy fat, it is fatty and could be hard to eat too many. Also, if salted, a lot of salt can be irritating. Lots of things can bother out...

    This was Rudi's rsponse to this topic a few months ago: Maggie here from Rudi's Gluten-Fre Bakery. To answer ButterfI8's question - We do not have a dedicated gluten-free facility, we do have a segregated, separate manufacturing approach. We bake our gluten free breads on separate, dedicated equipment and on separate production days. You can feel assured...

    Everyone has a warn bar. Some have some green filling in the bar. Look at everyones posts and you cannot see the warn bar. If you wonder what everyone can see, look at another posters info. That's the info they can see on you. If you post in the wrong place, we will move it to the right place if we catch it. I hope that's clear. I have a killer...

    Please note: the info on this thread is 6 years old ( except the last post) and may no longer be accurate.

    Having a 15 & 18 year old - are we sure she isn't cheating when parents aren't looking? Or even, just misjudging what is OK away from home? My 15 year old has a friend with celiac disease that thinks it's Ok to take the burger off the bun, etc. Also, has she checked all her soaps, lotions & beauty products? If you use your fingers to put the...

    How come if you say " green peppers bother my stomach." no one argues you are making this up or you must eat them? But if you say. " Every time I eat wheat bread, I bloat, get horrible gas, cramps, a headache and diarrhea". People, including doctors, don't believe it's a gluten intolerance? Or real?

    My son's school & another school his friends go to have kitchens you reserve. He could have it every day, by himself with his own pans. He keeps the food in his fridge in his room. He can have a microwave in his room for the leftovers for lunch tomorrow. If you won't consider other schools, you will have to figure out how to work with what you have...

    I think we have had a couple of people on here who were in the military when diagnosed. I remember that one, in the Air Force, kept his job. I think he was speicialized and able to stay Stateside. Use the google in the top right corner of this forum and put in "Military"

    One option is to expand your search area. There are thousands of Colleges. Not sure if you are in the US or which part of the country. My son (not gluten-free), lives in a dorm with a full, beautiful kitchen on the first floor. I didn't have to delve into the gluten-free food thing, but I saw that they have choices including food provided & cooked...

    You're in the right place. Should have just explained better. We have people who have doctors, dieticians & mother-in-laws tell them "a little won't hurt them". You should probably stay gluten-full until you get your blood tested. Celiac is genetic. With a kid with Celiac, you will probably be eating gluten light or gluten free at home...

    Yes. I'm baking them this afternoon & freezing for freshness.

    What about black bean chips like Beanitos (?). I think there are other brands. I tried one awhile back and liked it with some salsa.

    I like New Planet, too. They are only in a few states right now - the ones around Colorado where it is made. They are working on the permits needed to sell in more states.

    Feeling a bit like GFM's (Nonhurricane Irene's) in laws. We are going to visit J at college over the weekend. Bringing all the things he couldn't bring the first week of school. Driving a long distance with a bunch of stuff we are leaving in a small space!

    This is an old thread . You could write or call them with your questions. Not sure what would be made in a guacamole plant that would contain gluten, but ask the company. Many places do not go to the added expense of testing for gluten if the product is not made with gluten.

    Don't forget to use "frequently" frequently!

    Sharon, This post confuses me as you have started a topic saying you have had symptoms for 6 months and wondering how to get diagnosed. What's the story?
  24. kareng
    I said " the genes they test for". Should have been more specific. Like Raven said, there appear to be more genes or combinations that can be associated with Celiac. In the US, they do not test for these additional genes yet.

    This is from the Univ of Chicago Celiac Center. I use this because the info is easy to find & read. Open Original Shared Link When an individual is diagnosed with celiac disease, the entire family learns that they must be tested for the condition, for they are now at risk. First degree relatives (parent, child, sibling) have a 1 in 22 chance...
