Get your affairs in order
IrishHeart replied to bartfull's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Dear A. You've always been one of my favorite people on here. I admire your courage, humor, and great faith. I have always pictured you enjoying your guitar shop, your kitty, and your home because you always told me how much they gave you pleasure. You've been an inspiration to me and to so many others on here during the last few years and you've helped... -
ARCHIVED Does Anyone React To Pacific Organic Chicken Broth?
IrishHeart replied to jddh's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You should only test one food at a time. A mash up of several food items is too many food proteins and you'd have no control factor. -

ARCHIVED Study: Gluten Isn't Only Culprit In Celiac Disease - Monroe News Star
IrishHeart replied to Scott Adams's topic in Publications & Publicity
Well, if you read the article, it states " new research suggests these folks may also react to non-gluten wheat proteins." So, it is also all the OTHER proteins in WHEAT that trigger our symptoms. It's not any additional foods, it's nothing new for those of us with celiac because it's still wheat we shouldn't be eating. It's bigger news for non... -

ARCHIVED 1St Holiday Season After Dx - How Did You Feel/do/cope?
IrishHeart replied to tonalynn's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I suggested using flour because most people already have G F flour in the house for baking pies and rolls. It probably won't be much of an added expense. A bit of flour and butter whisked into a roux is then added to the hot drippings and hot stock and honestly, that has never caused any clumping in the gravy I have made for over 30 years. ( all -purpose... -

I should note that we also made whipped potatoes and they were fabulous with the gravy I made from her pan drippings and my G F flour. -

ARCHIVED Could Your Retainer Be Preventing Healing? Yes.
IrishHeart replied to powerofpositivethinking's topic in Publications & Publicity
Good. I am glad you recognize that fact because not everything that happens to us, our children and families is because of gluten. Having OTHER allergies/intolerances opens a door to so many other things that may have caused a "reaction". I know, I have other food intolerances and mast cell issues. I am sorry your wee one is not feeling well... -
ARCHIVED Could Your Retainer Be Preventing Healing? Yes.
IrishHeart replied to powerofpositivethinking's topic in Publications & Publicity
Who dragged out this old thread? I thought this one had died. Do parents of children with celiac disease really have to worry that their children’s retainers contain gluten? In a word: NO. BY : Amy Jones, MS, RD and Tricia Thompson, MS, RD "Many of you may have heard about the article “An Orthodontic Retainer Preventing Remission in Celiac Disease” re... -
ARCHIVED Being Glutened By Supplements?
IrishHeart replied to Rhobhan's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I take a few G F supplements and my recent follow up biopsy showed no active celiac (just some scaring from years of going unDXed) The blanket statement 'supplements can contain gluten" may not apply, since the doctor has no knowledge of what you are taking--has he checked the brands, etc? If you selected G F supps, there should be no problem. If... -
ARCHIVED How Did You Heal Your Gut? Besides Giving Up Gluten...
IrishHeart replied to icelandgirl's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Actually, no.. I thought you were pretty clear. That's not why you posted them originally.. You posted them to refute a statement Gemini made earlier in the thread. I say this because you quoted her before answering with those study links (why else would you post them directly after her comment?). And anyone reading the thread knows that you quoted... -

Didn't I tell you my hubs shared his bug with me a few weeks ago? It's inevitable...we live with them. LOL But when I made soup, at least I gave him a bowl of it too. My trip to the produce stand yielded a treasure trove of things: pluots, tomatillos, eggplant, patty pan squash, cabbage and although it is too soon to bring one home just yet: pumpkins... -

I actually like that the silicone handles comes off mine ( for washing), but I've never had it snap off while making something. How thick was that dough, sister Ruth ? lol (just teasing you) You can find one piece ones here: Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED How Did You Heal Your Gut? Besides Giving Up Gluten...
IrishHeart replied to icelandgirl's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
yes, however, after the trial of that "Fasano diet" as it is now dubbed, the conclusion was "Of the 14 patients who responded to the diet, 11 (79%) successfully returned to their previous traditional GFD without resurgence of symptoms or elevated serology." Eating mass-market G F grains. Even the leading celiac researchers think it's okay to... -

Tricia Thompson RD (whom I have conversed with via email) and Anne Lee, RD who I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with for over an hour at a Gluten Free Living conference inOrlando last spring co-authored that article and I specifically asked Ms. Lee about this study. She had presented a lecture earlier that day about the need for incorporating grains... -
ARCHIVED Hotel Waffle Makers With gluten-free Waffle Mix?
IrishHeart replied to SMRI's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Actually, the article covered "flavorings"--including natural flavors, smoke flavors and caramel coloring I think we mentioned to you that "artificial flavors" were not an issue (because why would any product need artificial wheat flavor?) and if it even somehow had it, the ingredient would have to be listed. I'm sorry you feel as if this is overwhelming... -
