    A few thoughts: (1) I always use lard for pie crust. I'm old school. before DX and still. Nothing like it. IMHO (2) The UDIs baguettes will never be the baguettes I used to make, but they are not THAT bad. Just don't cook them too long, that's all. I had one today and it was still squishy inside. (3) the pumpkin cheesecake pie recipe was really...

    I saw an article today that says the CDF and a plant geneticist challenged this latest claim about the GMOs and celiac and NCGS link Open Original Shared Link

    You are very wise to be skeptical, IMHO. Keep doing your research before you decide what is best for you. I have read a few articles about this woman and her claims about healing ALL diseases and disorders, but I do not know of any way to be "cured" of celiac so you can resume eating gluten without consequences.. At least, that "miracle" has not happened...

    I can PM you with all our addresses. Just say the word.

    Steph raises a good point. I, too, can get "antsy and racy" if I am accidentally glutened. I can lose sleep, etc. and feel "off" and worrisome. I wonder....have you recently eaten out, added in some new food or product? sometimes, a low dose trace of it can tweak us.

    I believe that probiotics are safe to take every day. I recently heard Dr.Fasano say that creating a health microbiome (i.e. the gut) populated with "good guys" bacteria will benefit the whole body.And that would include the adrenals and the brain. A B-12 or folate deficiency could possibly contribute to anxiety issues. To answer your question, yes...

    No one "attacked you" and it's not just the FDA that has voiced concerns. there are all kinds of lawsuits and health problems/near deaths reported. It can cause acute Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link But if you are comfortable drinking a bleach solution, that's your call. Glad you feel better!! Best wishes.

    Ok, here is more information from a different source. A scientific source. Medical doctors wrote the articles and do the research: Open Original Shared Link Sorry, hon but I do not see how this is beneficial for anyone. This is basically DRINKING BLEACH My husband is a chemist... for . 33 years... and he says it's toxic.

    I had a mouth guard, too hon. (good news--I do not need it anymore. off gluten, we may stop clenching our teeth!! whoohoo!) No gluten issues whatsoever! the dental tech in my dentist's office vetted every single thing in the office for me and she found NO gluten in any dental products there. FWIW

    Just a minute here while we review how this tangent started because apples/oranges are being mixed Glutenmaestro said: Since a third of the US population has a celiac gene, and the condition can be triggered at any point in someone's life 1/3 of the US population is certainly not the same as 30% of Caucasian individuals ?? right...

    PS your name.... "CeeLeighacLady" is very clever.

    I have eaten both Rotisserie chicken offerings from BJs. No problems whatsoever. They are Purdue brand and another brand (whose name escapes now but I'll look it up and get back to you) We own a counter top rotisserie, but it's a giant pain in the cluck to clean and sometimes, I am a lazy bones. This way is a whole lot easier.

    They better be okay, I've got a mouthful of the caramel one right now and mmmfff mfs ..yum. We have an old-fashioned advent box with pics of antique Santas painted on the little cubby holes of December days. yes, we "count down" to Christmas ....so I fill them with treats. What can I say? the hubs and I are Christmas fools.

    Actually, asthma is associated with celiac. (not that either of these conditions actually causes the other) It's listed among 300 symptoms associated with it and some researchers have also found a link: Open Original Shared Link Sorry about your little guy. my brother and a few of my cousins have asthma and I know how difficult it is to deal...

    Well, I was curious about what GlutenMaestro posted, so I did a search and found this on the University of Chicago Celiac Center's website: "When the genetic predisposition for celiac disease was detected (on Chromosome 6) researchers noted that the genes were a necessary but not sufficient condition for the disease to develop. In fact, up to 1/3 of the...

    "may contain wheat" is a deal breaker for me. IMHO that "may" make me pretty sick.... why risk it? Plenty of other candies to choose from.

    You sound like you have gluten intolerance or celiac disease to me. Your symptoms surely suggest this anyway. IMHO Have you seen a good Gastroenterologist for the constant diarrhea? You need to have a celiac panel done...pronto! You can't really handle enormous stress if your body is not well, hon. This is not your fault and you are not imaging things...

    Gemini and I have both eaten them and I'm alive and kicking. Last I checked, about 2 minutes ago via email, she was too. Yo, GEM...are you still cool with Ghirardelli? ( let's see if she heard me..........)

    A third of the US population has the celiac gene? I have never seen that estimate before. Can you point me to that Pub Med article please? thanks! Just a note about the celiac-related genes. Just because someone has the HLA-DQ2 or DQ8 gene, it does not mean the person will definitely develop celiac disease. It just means there is a risk associated with...

    In a word... No. (please see my response in the other thread about this article) .

    I have made some errors in judgement myself (never, ever assume...yeah, we know this, but we trust and then, ARGH!!) and then wonder why? why? why? argh again!! Here's the thing. It happens. We live in a gluten- filled world and from time to time, we get blasted. It's not your fault, hon -! -you know this----and I hope it is not too bad and that...

    Mom, Please hang in there and watch him for more improvements. I strongly feel that being G F will help your son. IMHO. I am no doctor but I have seen many improvements in mood disorders in children and adults alike. is he also dairy free? Sometimes, that also helps if he has bowel issues. There are many medical articles on the gluten-behavioral...

    LMAO meh! what's a stray fingernail chip in the stuffing amongst family and friends??! If you don't cut, burn or bruise something while creating, you ain't a pro. You should see my friend Babs' arms (professional chef/caterer) Yikes....totally scarred from burns. I only have 2. I do have a finger with permanent nerve damage from a horrible knife cut one...
