    We used the egg replacer "EnerG" in a bread recipe and it seemed to work just fine! It's weird, but when I eat eggs (scrambled with water or plain, fried or hard boiled) I feel nauseous, but baked IN things, like bread...no problem...go figure!?

    Hi Kim and welcome to the forum! Giving up dairy at first is wise because lactase, which is the enzyme that breaks down the sugar lactose, is produced in the tip of the villi. When the villi get blunted in celiac disease, sometimes the ability to digest lactose is decreased and you can become lactose intolerant. This may cause bloating, stomach...

    Cross contamination will be an issue for you, I believe, no matter how vigilant you are. Just my opinion. You can try it...see how it goes. Do you react quickly to gluten like some of us do? If so, that may be the deciding factor. Good luck, hon!

    Well, now that you have added MORE symptoms you suffer to the conversation, I definitely recommend you stay gluten free!! and yes, we can eat pizza, cookies, beer (well, hubby does)--in moderation--they are just gluten-free!! It's just the "new" normal, that's all. It's the ticket to good health, not a punishment. TAKALA said all I could possibly...

    There are chicken nuggets that are gluten-free. There are cereals that are gluten-free. You can eat the foods you love. As for snacks, there are Mommies on here that deal with these easily on a daily basis and I am sure they would be more than happy to share their ideas with you. Read under the sections on children, baking and cooking, and recipes, etc....

    Many people have negative test results. If you want statistics to present to him--I am sure it's on this site somewhere. My doctor told me it was almost 30% of the time. That's why so many people remain sick and in pain--reliance on a test that renders false negatives all the time. I am one of dozens on here who will tell you horror stories of what happened...

    I think you already know this is not how a normal GI system works...perhaps you want us to tell you that you are doing the right thing by having your daughter tested? You are doing the right thing by having your daughter tested. No one should have that going on every single day. (well, I did... but now I know WHY) And now, it doesn't happen anymore...

    I have learned so much about this lately. My cousin scarfs down Snickers without an issue...me? 5 days of ugly symptoms...as you say, everyone's different. I tried a plan dark chocolate bar (85%)from a health food store (no soy lecithin, no milk) and it was okay...the sugar made me "buzz" pretty good but no "gluten willies" as I call them. Hope your...

    If your muscles didn't take a hit from vitamin/mineral deficiencies, then you should be fine. You may want to alternate days of weight lifting and cardio. As I said, I had to stop everything I was doing because I lost major muscle mass. If you feel EXHAUSTED, then something else may be going on and you really should have a doctor do blood work including testing...

    I use ones from Custom Probiotics. Yes. I sure broke out! You're "cleaning out"...toxins have to come out. Since the skin is an organ, well.... Eric, it may be rocky for a while. Drink lots of water. You look like you exercise?!...keep that up as long as you don't over-exert yourself. I was very sick from malabsorption, so I had to STOP swimming...
