    FYI, The safest way is to wrap a burger in foil and cook it like that. You can cover the grill plate and poke holes but then you have to still worry about CC from the rest of the grill. BTW burgers in foil come out looking like grey hockey pucks, they basically steep in the foil packet, sorry. Watch them closely, don't overcook them. good luck

    A friend of mine is a seller of this product which she started taking a year ago . She has severe digestive and colon problems and 1 of her kids is asthmatic. She feels great and her son is not using his inhaler regularly and she believes it's due to this product. Its dehydrated fruits and veggies in capsule and/or gummy form and claims to be gluten free...

    FYI, Amy's makes a single serve gluten free, dairy free pizza. If you can find this it may be worth trying. From what I've seen the cost of soy cheese or cheese substitutes (sheese) run about the same as this pizza.

    I know you want tried and true but....although I have never fried these , they have baked crispy so I imagine they would fry great. 1st dredge in tapioca flour with salt , garlic powder and italian herb mix to taste 2nd in egg/milk mix, 3rd roll in well crushed corn chex . I blend them to get them small enough. fry till done

    Every child is different, my dd is on year 2 of gluten-free and she is less adventurous in her eating habits than before dx. She will gag and throw up any new veggies . She wants her empty carbs and meats. Her fruits are now down to mainly apples and I have to force small amounts of grapes , pears and watermelon on her . Before Dx she used to enjoy other...

    Have you rechecked every food item for changes? A while ago we used to use Ovaltine then out of the blue my DD was having Diarhea problems I noticed the label changed and sure enough it changed factories and is now being processed in a facility that processes Wheat. Sometimes you just never know till you reread all the labels.

    My DD had impactions with a stretched colon and we used this for over a year and occasionally had to do Pepto Bismal on weekends for extra clean outs. Going gluten-free changed it pretty quickly. We stopped using it almost immediately. With no problems except the normal CC issue's

    My DD has done a lot of "I'm not feeling well enough to go to school today" And no : TV, video games or a trip to the DR's , will deter her, and I know she is faking it at least some of the times. I tell her no fever = no stay home from school. The nurse and I are on first name basis and she agrees with my standing. We have an understanding( only if...

    Is gluten still being consumed in the house ? If so something is getting into their diet. As stated above check meds,vitamins, shampoos body wash etc.. check all dressing, marinades and mixed spices. Make sure shared colanders, toaster, and /or double dipping into open shared jars is not occurring. Your younger dx may be more sensitive so you...

    Yes as Lisa said, very bad idea to go gluten free before testing it completely skews the results. FYI , It does not sound good of your GI for suggesting this. Question what kind of specialist are you seeing because for Celiac you see a GI which you seem to under the care of already. BTW 1 week gluten free is not long. Adding xantham gum to gluten...

    Yes my daughter was highly emotional, short tempered , cried easily and sensitive . The symptoms started to disappear within 2 weeks of going gluten free. Took 8 weeks for a close to full change. I need to ask, what Celiac treatments are you referring to? Here in the U.S. there are no "treatments" other than diet that I am aware of.

    There are 16 kids with bag lunches and 2 full meals "THE KIDS" must prepare , serve and cleanup afterwards. So the less gluten the better was all I was going for. My main point being, that some people won't even open dialogue to discuss it. That's sad !

    So when I asked our GS troop leader if we could change the brand type of the a few of the foods for their campout to make it safer and less confusing for the leaders and helpers this is the response: ************************************************************ It's actually easier for me if your girl and the other two girls have their own food items sent...

    yes, test everyone ( the Dr usually suggests this) then let extended family know if anyone else shows up positive. My Aunt had stomach problems all her life and was finally dx at 64 (they never checked because she was overwt her whole life)
  17. Mizzo
    Get the blood work results in hand for your sanity. Dbl check with another Dr. DO NOT go by a dietician's phone call. There is no reason you cannot try going gluten free to see if it helps. If so, report results to GI and ask for Biopsy (after going back on gluten ). good luck

    I would definitely ask the cooks how and what they prepare and unless you are thoroughly impressed with their knowledge and cleanliness I would pack my own frozen pre packed foods as well.

    My rice cooker also includes a steamer basket and I have included broth , tomaoes and bags of frozen veggies into the rice. No timer though . It's a Rival.

    Sorry, but, the only safe Mc Donalds fries are when they change the oil and your order is the first order cooked, all by itself.

    We were told we could eliminate up to a 1/2 cup pasta equivalent till the biopsy and the test would still be accurate.

    We have had parties that I organized in the past and we did this : fruit platters with fruit arranged in a design cheese and tortilla chips gluten-free pretzels popcorn tortilla chips and salsa for sweet treats : jello cups, hoodsie cups or popsicles, jello and whipped cream juice boxes BTW I am fighting the whole food in the classroom...

    I don't feel pasta freezes well, IMO it gets real mushy. Buy good freezer quart size bags. I would precook and lot of chicken and pork and separate into single serving portions. Same with rice dishes and potatoes. I make seasoned rice and beans they microwave well and toss in a meat and its a meal. If you like indian you can marinate and cook...

    Hormel is safe says gluten free on package Boars head are also safe Oscar Mayer is questionable they use a shared factory and cannot claim to be gluten-free Some generic/store brands say gluten-free on package ie Market basket is gluten-free Some people talk to the deli dept manager and ask for a sliced order to be done first thing in am after cleaning...
