    I had some trouble with Vitamin Shoppe Vitmains. I can't be sure it was a gluten problem since I have other allergies/intolereneces. However, at the time I was taking them they only said wheat free, they did not say gluten free. You may want to double check your vitamins and write to Vitamin Shoppe to clarify whether they test for gluten or not. BTW,...

    Again thank you for your help. I won't reply about this topic in this thread again since it's off topic.

    Thank you. Sorry to ask here, but really quickly and then I will stop. If I report a post does that report go to Admin (Scott) only or does the post go to the entire moderating team? And if the post is modified after I report it will Scott see the original or only the modified version?

    Just to clarifiy I did not mean to imply that Steph was offended. I am not her nor do I know her personally. I meant only to say that I am hurt and offended by the insentivity of others. And that is fitting with this topic as it was asked what is the worst part about being supersentive. In my two years being gluten sensitive this has been the worst thing...

    You said that you agreed with Gemini who said: And then goes on to describe how to eat out carefully. Sorry but his statement is NOT true for everyone. It is his experience and he is free to share that but to share that when responding to someone saying they can't eat out is just as invalidating as what you implied Steph was doing IMO. My...

    I understand that you felt she was attacking you but are you not doing the same thing to her by invalidating HER experience of not being able to safely eat out? She should be able to share that without being attacked and put down and told in effect--"oh you could eat out if your were really careful". No. Some of us can't eat out. I didn't see anything...

    The best thing is eating healthier and actually feeling better. The WORST thing is being openly MOCKED by those less sensitive.

    Sorry, I just answered your other thread and asked about sjogren's. Ignore my question there. Based on what you are saying about drs in your area, I think you may do better to find a speciailist to treat your sjogren's more effectively (I don't know what that entails but you may find new treaments if you find a better dr). Unfortunately, not all auto-immune...

    Have you looked into Sjogren's? With these symptoms persisting while gluten free I would suspect an additional auto-immune disease. ETA: Sorry I just saw your other thread that says you do have sjogren's. Ignore the above question but it's still a good idea to look into the possibility of your sjogren's or another auto-immune disease causing some...

    Okay so I read the first chapter and then decided to skip to the chapter about celiac disease. Here are a few quotes: "Wheat Belly is not a book about celiac disease. But it is impossible to talk about the effect of wheat on health without talking about celiac disease." Pg 75 "While celiac disease is not the most common expression of wheat intolerance...

    Sounds like hypoglycemia or some type or blood sugar problem to me. I have hypoglycemia and I need to eat more protein than carbs or I'll be sick (light-headed, dizzy, nasueas, headache) and sleep just like you did after drinking the OJ. You should get tested for diabetes, however, just to rule it out.

    Try this website: Open Original Shared Link Also if you can pick up a Ball Canning book it's worth it to buy--it's a thin book with all the recipes you could need, saftey info and step by steps in it.

    Wow! That's terrible! It's one thing if the woman really were gluten free too but clearly she had no idea what that meant or she would not have said that or been so rude. On the other hand I think I would not want tons of people walking past my gluten-free food on a buffet with gluteny food in their hands. I would have asked the buffet staff to put the...

    Poor kid! Sounds like good news that your dr is on the right track and treating him for the TB. Don't beat yoruself up over the cc issues at school. It's awesome you were able to figure those out! It is sad about him having to sit alone but I've read that as a common solution in schools for kids with food allergies too. Some schools will allow the allergic...

    Ha! If I could read it in a week it would be a miracle. I'll let you know though...

    Why are you taking SerenAid? I would drop the supplements. It could be giving you bad side effects. Also check your personal hygiene products- shampoo, lotions, etc. Anything that gets on your hands can get in your mouth.

    You did help a little, thanks for posting. I had never heard of it before my friend gave me the book and then I started noticing a few people here mention it in posts so now my interest is peaked too. I went and read some of the reviews on Amazon. It got almost overwhelmingly positive reviews. The few people that gave bad reviews complained that it didn...

    I use LIGHT olive oil (NOT virgin) in recipes and don't notice an off taste in anything except mashed potatoes. You can also try coconut oil. Very healthy and will not give a strong coconut taste in most things.

    Are you toasting the bread in a shared toaster? What brand of almond milk? I agree with pear, that's a lot of processed food. It's pretty hard to pin down what you are reacting too since you could have a problem with ingredients in any of the gluten-free products (additioanl intolerances are common), problems with cc or just have eaten too much processed...

    A friend gave me this book recently and I was just wondering if anyone had read it. From it's cover I have a feeling it's going to prescribe a gluten-free diet for everyone. Under the title it says "Lose the wheat, lose the weight and find your path back to health." Just wondering how medically accurate it is or if it's just another book pushing a gluten...

    Well you know your marriage better than anyone else. Just use your intuition and keep your eye's open. Could just be his job stressing him but I still find it strange that he just started criticizing you after 15 years. I hope he responds well when you lay out what you need from him. You don't deserve to be walked over but at he same time reacting too...

    I'm not saying things don't need to change as far as how much she does around the house--clearly things are unequal and unfair if he doesn't even know how to work the washing machine. That needs to change, but how she goes abotu changing it could make a big difference in whether it works out to be a positive change or not for their marriage as a whole. ...

    Okay, I know I know you least of all the others posting here but I have to disagree with some of the advice that's been given. First he criticizes your cooking and now he criticizes your housework?!? Are you newlyweds? If not then, girl, something bigger than housework and cooking may be going on. I don't want to jump to conclusions or freak you out but...

    I have seen MaSeCa in most regular grocery stores--check the international sections if they have one. Be careful about which brand you buy--the first brand I tried had wheat cc in it due to being processed with wheat flour. I noticed only after it made me sick and after writing to the company that the bag had a warning that said "May contain wheat". The...

    Tonight I made rice chex encrusted chicken breasts with green beans and mashed potatoes.
