Another public report from gluten-free watchdog Open Original Shared Link "...Gluten Free Watchdog has personally tested many products using the Nima Sensor. One of the issues slowly emerging is what appear to be false positives (e.g., defined by Gluten Free Watchdog as products testing “low gluten” when tested with the Nima but les...

ARCHIVED Support Group
kareng replied to tambrown's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I am not sure who you are addressing this to? Celiac. Com does not run support groups ( other than this site). Perhaps you could google "Celiac support New York" to find info on the one closest to you. You could start a topic explaining your issues & people may have some suggestions or experiences to share. -
ARCHIVED John Frieda Go Blonder
kareng replied to celiacgeorigapaeach's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Read the ingredients? If they use wheat germ oil, they are proud to list it. If you really like the products and they do contain glute, you can still use them. Just be very careful not to swallow any. I know Celiacs who use some curly hair treatment with wheat germ oil successfully. They are very careful.- 1 reply

ARCHIVED Gluten-free Anti-malarial meds
kareng replied to lea01's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Very very few medications actually contain gluten. The company that makes the med told you they have wheat starch in them? Many companies will give you some legal talk about " no gluten ingredients, but can't guarantee, etc". If it is made by different companies, maybe you can get better info from another brand Have you spoken to a doctor about... -
Throw the book away! It isn't even based on actual biological science! Here is an easy to read explanation- https://nutrino.co/blood-type-diet-debunked/ If you actually have DH, diagnosed by a biopsy, you have Celiac. Just having the gene, doesn't not mean you have Celiac. http://www.cureceliacdisease.org/faq/if-i-have...

The poster you are responding to has not been around since 2009. The way to find out if you actually have Celiac disease is to go to a doctor and get tested for it. It is genetic, so other family member could have it, too. It has nothing to do with blood type. I think that "blood type diet" has been debunked scientifically. We did a thread and asked...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Farmer's Market
kareng replied to Ennis-TX's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
the FDA has, so far, not been too concerned about Farmers markets. There are plenty of bakeries that sell gluten-free along with gluten. Most know to tell you that they may be CC'd. I think a Celiac needs to know to ask those questions. I think that Ennis might want to have large signage about this. Perhaps someone can help him come up with a clever... -
ARCHIVED Used to be super sensitive- and now not?
kareng replied to Carah's topic in Super Sensitive People
Celiac disease does not go away. Once you are healed, there are a lot of reasons why your reactions may be lighter or appear non-existent. - it may take multiple exposures for your body to produce enough antibodies to start a reaction - a healed gut may be able to handle a small amount of antibody "attack" -some people have a higher tolerance... -
ARCHIVED Everyone is telling me something different
kareng replied to Washingtonmama's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Keep the ktichenaid mixer but you will want to wash all the little crevices well. I found that white vinegar/ water squirted up into the cracks until it runs clean seems to do the trick. Throw the pots in the dishwasher. Throw out the pasta colander - hard to get it out of all the little cracks. You need a new toaster, fresh Mayo, PB, etc. The BBQ grill... -

Vacuum the crumbs out - Not sure how you have crumbs in there, not sure I want to know...... But please don't become one of those paranoid people that thinks that being in public next to someone will gluten you! -

We have joked on here that we should get a job at a GI office. That would give us access to poeple being diagnosed! Lol I think that the best way to meet a life partner is to meet lots of people....or be really lucky. But, when you meet lots of people, they know lots of people for you to meet. Being active in something you enjoy, helps you meet... -

Bottle Dunkin' Donuts Iced Coffee
kareng replied to switham1's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I don't see any gluten in that. It wouldn't be made in the same place as the donuts, so should be safer than from a donut store. -
Anyone have any restaurants they could recommend in the area? Thanks

ARCHIVED How do I go out to eat?!
kareng replied to Washingtonmama's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Bringing your own food isn't always an option a place can give you. In some counties, The health department does not allow it. If it is a small family owned place, perhaps you could talk to them ahead of time? Or eat first, and just have a drink? Or smuggle in something small like a protein bar? You might be surprised to learn that you are... -

best flavor ARCHIVED Bread crumbs
kareng replied to primo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You can make your own. I make mine in my food processor or blender, with bread that has been in the freezer a while. Another way to make it less gummy would be to toast the crumbs in the oven to dry them out a bit. -
