  1. i have realized that i'm not eating near enough fruits and vegetables. what are some of your favorites that pack a lot of nutrients and are easy on the belly?
  2. doesn't sound dumb at all! i was recently diagnosed also and agree this forum is great. i'm still figuring it out myself.
  3. which toothpaste were you using that had gluten in it? if you're super sensitive i'd suggest getting rid of anything that has gluten in it. especially if it is going to be all over you face on a daily basis.
  4. yes, but ingredients don't always tell the full story. i've heard that it was but can't find any real info online.
  5. Is it gluten free? Making some soup and don't want to poison the whole pot!
  6. are you all completely down for the count for this long or are you still making it to work during this time?
  7. for snacks i usually eat chips and salsa, a bar of some sort, or rice cakes.i never in my life imagined eating a rice cake but if you get creative they are great! i've been putting peanut butter and m and m's on them for a desert snack. i have found i just don't eat out near as much which involves me making more meals at home at night to have for lunch the...
  8. i grill all of the time and am looking forward to the season! when i went gluten free i bought a new grill grid for 15 bucks just for my sanity...
  9. not bad at all with some peanut butter! put a little PB, strawberries/bluberries and chocolate syrup and you've got a desert. pretty good!
  10. Since going gluten free, I'm finding that I am falling back on rice cakes daily! I really like the Suzie's brand but they are manufactured in a facility with wheat products although it says gluten free on the package. This seems to be the case with a lot of rice cakes. Are there any that you like that are definitely 100 percent gluten free? I'm not a fan...
  11. i've found that different probiotics sit differently with me. i'm using culturelle now.
  12. Which easy to find soap, shampoo, face wash, and toothpaste are definitely gluten free?
  13. I've very new to all of this and i'm trying to degluten my house! i'm trying to be really careful and one of the few things in my place that has gluten involved still is my pet. how careful do i need to be getting the food out, feeding treats etc. what are some of the things other pet owners are doing? i think eventually the best thing to do is to get the...
  14. Anybody have an issue with these? Just got them today after reading non-gmo and no gluten on the packaging. After a closer look, I saw it said manufactured in a facility that produces products that contain wheat and soy. Should I stay away?
  15. thanks for the suggestions! i live in brooklyn and work in manhattan. i don't like to eat until i get to work due to the commute (subway) and the usual gi troubles i have after eating (even gluten free). so the wake up a little early option would be nice but is not a reality. only on weekends!
  16. whoops! i meant to put this in the "coping with" section.
  17. hey, i've just recently gone gluten free and seem to be doing ok with food choices except in the mornings. i don't really have time to cook in the mornings so usually (pre gluten free) i'd grab an egg on a bagel at the deli on the way in to work. i'm assuming even if the grill is cleaned and the utensils are cleaned the grill could be kind of sketchy even...
  18. As long as there is no gluten in your diet do you generally feel ok or do you still experience symptoms?
  19. what exactly are the differences between Tissue Transglutam AB IGA and Gliadin AB IGA? my test came back negative for Tissue Transglutam at <3 (range <5 U/mL) and positive for Gliadin AB IGA at 39 (range <11 U/mL) going to see my GI on tuesday but trying to do a little research before hand and gather any questions i may have for him. ...
  20. thanks for the reply, i had a scope done a few weeks ago and go in for the results tuesday. he said after the procedure that he didn't see any of the usual signs of celiac but that i did have some irratation. he took some samples and sent them in. i have really only been feeling bad since october after a major virus which i read could trigger celiac. is that...
  21. got my results back from the test. what exactly does it mean! IGA, Serum = 388 (in range) ref range 81-463 mg/dL Tissue Transglutam AB IGA <3 (in range) ref range <5 U/mL Gliadin AB (IGA) 39 (out of range) ref range < 11 U/mL
  22. just wondering if you all get the same effects from cross contamination as you would eating a whole piece of bread. is it the same reaction either way or is it less depending on how much gluten you're actually exposed to?
  23. Just wondering what other conditions are out there that having High Gliadin IGA antibodies would indicate. Seems like I read that having elevated levels is not always a sign of celiac because other conditions are related to it as well. What else is out there that is worth looking into? I'm still waiting to here back about my biopsy but my level of IGA was...
