if it can be of any help/ interest to someone: I think I don't react to the tapioca flour or other ingredient in pamelas mix, as I've eaten other things with them w/o a problem... but it may as well be the buckwheat! not 100% sure yet, but it seems like it... it isn't easy to figure out these things! but I feel like I am doing progress here

thanks so much for your input! I just realize now that I've had buckwheat (Pocono Kasha) about a month ago...didn't seem to have a reaction back then (but I had very little, when these last days I've had a lot of stuff w/ buckwheat flour in it...) I still have some at home so I will try to recover first, and then try the Kasha again...trying to make...

thanks to both of you. I think you're right, I'll try one made on dedicated equipment & see if it works better for me!

Hi all I am 3 months gluten-free now, and doing much much better -most of the time. It's been a few days I feel like crap again (BM problems, skin rash, fatigue, brain fog...) and looking back at my food diary, I am thinking arrowhead mills buckwheat flour is the culprit (bought a pack last week, since then I baked quite some stuff with it. after a...

hi! sorry I haven't come here for a while... I never sorted out if the mix got me or if it was something else...I just went back to baking my brownies from scratch and I am fine:) the basic recipe I use is pretty simple: melt chocolate (180g) & butter (150g) / mix eggs (3), sugar (150g) & flour (60g) / mix these two mixes, and then bake ...

Yep! My brother and SIL had bought a BUNCH of nice french food for hubby & me, when we came back to Paris to visit the family a few months ago -like, 3 days after my diagnosis! I told them right away about the diagnosis & diet, they went with me through all the labels to see what I could have, put me a portion apart before serving things to...

Hi all I am writing because I'm planning to go out for dinner (couldn't have imagined being stressed by eating out a few months ago ) first time since going gluten-free. I just want to take my husband out for a nice dinner for his birthday in a couple of weeks -we're french so we love good food, plus I think the whole gluten-free thing has been...

Yep, I agree. I think a lot of us have been diagnosed w/ IBS before discovering the celiac thing... I am "only" gluten intolerant/ sensitive/ whatever, but I have to point out that before going gluten-free, absolutely NOTHING I tried -for several years- to relieve the IBS symptoms worked (be it water/ fiber intake, eating a very balanced diet, not too much...

hi there I am really not a specialist about make up, since gluten gives me skin problems I avoided it a lot... But just in case it helps (?), here are the two products I use: -100% pure lip & cheek tint -it is gluten-free, though I know they have some other products with gluten in them (CC?). I use it for cheeks & eyes and haven't had a problem...

I am sorry for you! it turns out, this is going OK for us -hubby came back 10 days ago... I had a hard time explaining cc and not looking like I'm completely paranoid to him...and he decided to stick to his first idea of being gluten-free with me (at home only) because he feels he would be overwhelmed if he had to watch all of his movements (cleaning...

Hi all! I have been "diagnosed" almost 2 months ago...actually no firm diagnosis. My GP was not knowledgeable enough about celiac disease to test me for anything else than TTG antibodies I believe, which came back neg. In the mean time, he told me to go gluten-free and see. He was wise enough though, to tell me I probably am "intolerant, sensitive...

Same here, I think if this persists you should talk to the doc...but it's probably nothing. 2 years I've thought my disappearing periods were due to my IUD (hormonal; this tend to be a secondary effect of it) But since (recent) gluten diagnosis, I've come to realize the periods thing began happening when I began noticing GI symptoms. Of course...

Thanks for the advice! I spent a fair amount of time the other day, shopping for some new products... I think gluten isn't in THAT many products, but with the gazilion unpronouncable ingredients they put in it...I never know! Anyway, I think I found some safe: face cream (weleda)/ shampoo (everyday shea)/ hand cream (desert essence)/ handsoap (kiss...

Jason, I agree w/ the above!! I am currently trying to find out about all my Burt's bees products...read some positive things about the lip balm/ creams & shampoo that I use...but as for the ingredients, I am still doubting the Tocopherol/ vitamin E, as I didn't get an answer if it was made from wheat...anyone knows?? Otherwise, I am very interested...

That's adorable
