ARCHIVED Question about cross contamination.
marjean replied to Amina82's topic in Super Sensitive People
Me and my husbands have different toasters, and if hes eaten anything w/ gluten I don't kiss him LOL. If I lick a envelope, I have a reaction..Some celiac people say they don't, but I do..I read the labels, and if in doubt call the company. I use a laundry detergent that doesn't contain gluten, toothpaste and shampoo, too. -

ARCHIVED How Do I Know If I Am Lactose Intolerant?
marjean replied to wilbragirl's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I was diagnosed with Celiac 5 years ago. I have always done pretty much my own cooking(no packaged things, etc.)..I find that the food you buy that are gluten free arent neccesarily good for you. Once in awhile a muffin or whatever(pkgd gluten free) are good, but all in all they are not that good. I make my own food, and to avoid any cross contamination I... -

marjean replied to Jenny (AZ via TX)'s topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I used Bobs Red Mill Baking flour, and mine turned out great. It says on the package to add xanthum gum. I used my grandmas recipe, and it was real moist. I also use Bobs in my pumpkin bars..they are great too, but man did they rise! Mustve been the xanthum gum! -

So... -

I was diagnosed w/ celiac 6 months ago, and am following directions..If I have a question of something about Celiac, I contact this site or other celiac websites..But lately everyone is telling me that I look tired and sick. My neighbor even had me get on her scale and prove I hadnt lost 20 pounds!! (I gained 2 pounds)..I am confused why before I was diagnosed... -
I have this problem, too..I didnt even realize it was from Celiac. It takes the fun out of eating, doesnt it?
