  1. This is an e-mail I received from The University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center: Sign the petition asking the FDA for gluten-free standards now! Last year, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) officials made a commitment to the celiac community that the gluten-free labeling rule would be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2012 (September...
  2. I'm not sure if this has become a topic on here or not, but I would encourage everyone to read the e-mail below and sign the petiton to get our foods labeled. This is the e-mail I have recieved from the Univ. of Chicago..... Last year, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) officials made a commitment to the celiac community that the gluten-free...
  3. I had the DeBoles gluten-free angel hair pasta last night for the first time, and had a severe reation to it. I've haven't had any recent incidents and that was the only new thing I tried yesterday. Has anyone else had a reaction to their product? I feel like crap today ....been so careful and now this.
  4. Just curious to know why a topic is moved and where it is moved to. I'm seeing a lot of these and didn't know the reason behind it.
  5. I can totally relate to this....I've been gluten-free since 12/2010 & have gained 12 lbs. I'm so frustrated because I eat a very balanced diet. We cook @ home and I only have 2-3 gluten-free cookies during the day when I'm craving sweets. I hardly ever have gluten-free bread and watch my carb intake. Had my tyroid checked 2 weeks ago & everything...
  6. Thanks for the feedback...I'm going to give it a try.
  7. I was purchasing vitamins from Vitacost.com and noticed they have a lot of gluten-free foods & products that are much cheeper than in stores. I found several products that I eat on a regular basis and others that I've never heard of. Eating gluten-free can be very expensive and I figured it would be cost effective to order online (I don't think you...
  8. I'm assuming CC because I know the things I am eating are gluten-free, but it doesn't happen like this all the time. That's what has me puzzled. I get ALL of the same exact symptoms you listed when it does happen.
  9. I have been gluten-free for 1 year & 3months now, but still get glutened every now & then by accident. Most of the time I just experience the standard reaction, but occasionally (like last night) I have the stomach cramps and D and then while I'm on the toilet I start this uncontrollable shaking/tremors and then I start having heart palpations. ...
  10. Mine have definitely changed too....I have the typical bowl symptoms for a few days, but the neuro last for several weeks. I was glutened 3 weeks ago and now I can't get rid of the eye twitch, ringing in the ears and the brain fog, not to mention the joint inflamation and being off balance. Headaches....that's a daily occurance for me right now so I know...
  11. I have suffered from severe anxiety for about 2 years now....to the point I had several panic attacks. After reading many post that suggested a vitamin deficiency I decided what the heck - I'll try anything at this point. I bought the Super Nutrition Simply One Women (with the PMS reducer) and let me tell you....I am a NEW woman. Not only has my PMS symptoms...
  12. I read a post yesterday that brought up the possibility of someone maybe having candida. When it referred to becoming bloated after eating certain foods (sweets/ice cream) it got me to wondering if I possibly have it. I get severly bloated after eating ice cream and I'm usually bloated in the AM after having a glass of wine the night before. I'm a female...
  13. Did anyone else listen to Nancy Snyderman talk about the "gluten-free Diet" on the Today Show? She was talking about how gluten-free foods are not providing the nutrients your body needs and refered to it as the "new sexy diet craze." OMG....I don't know about anyone else, but there is NOTHING sexy about having to eat gluten-free and especially nothing...
  14. Mine is mainly rib cage pain, but now that I read yours I'm wondering if alot of my lower abdominal pain isn't gluten related....I've always assumed it was "monthly" related symptoms. I get alot of cramping and I assumed it was because I have endometrosis, but now I have to wonder. I got glutened about 1 week ago and have had terrible back pain and cramping...
  15. I use my iPhone and have an app called "is that gluten free". It comes in handy alot.
