    Oh dear , sorry you're feeling so crud The Kraft Light Dressing is gluten-free ( I contacted them recently and they sent me a list of their gluten-free items) I can only think it's early days. When my hubby first went gluten-free so many foods (gluten-free ones!) gave him stomach gripes and diarrhoea. You might find it easier on your...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    nikki-uk replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    When a coeliac removes gluten from their diet it allows their villi (which get damaged from reacting to gluten) to regrow thus allowing you to absorb nutrients much better. Many coeliacs feel so much better in their overall health after going gluten-free for a number of reasons. Many are anaemic before going gluten-free because they can't absorb iron...

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUSIE!!!! Have a good one !!!!

    Although there has been two main genes identified to celiac disease I think it's fair to say there may be more genes (or combinations) that as yet have not been discovered. (Just my opinion though)

    Oh good!! Once you receive the Gluten-Free food & drink directory it definitely helps enormously with those first few shopping trips. I know after my hubby was diagnosed we absolutely relied on that little book (or bible as we refer to it!) Also Open Original Shared Link is a UK based forum which can be very helpful with particular brand queries...

    Hi Mike - It's a small world - I live in Essex (UK) too !!!! Welcome to the forum , lots of good advice to be had here ! : My hubby was diagnosed 2 yrs ago and my son 2 months ago. It does seem daunting at first but believe me when I say it does get easier. Reading labels becomes a way of life!! Fire away with any questions you might...

    HEINOUS is my favourite but HARUMPH is a close second ...such wonderfully descriptive words!! ...Still no Richard???
  25. nikki-uk
