Thanks all, for your replies. I discovered that those that are intolerant to wheat are also intolerable to Bromelain. And sure enough, I cannot handle taking Bromelain. So I was thinking that perhaps there are other plants/herbs that give off the same reaction.

Hello, Welcome , I'm not a teen but greetings! I'm from TO Not many Cdns on this message board.

Hello all, Does anyone know if camomille is safe for celiacs? Is there any info somewhere that lists which herbs that could be reactive for gluten intolerant individuals? I'm getting more and more scared about what I can touch or eat. Please help!

I have a few questions about yeast. I'm confused as to whether all yeast are naturally gluten-free or there a different types of yeast. I want to do more baking but not sure which yeast is safest. I recently used the Active Dry Yeast, and I did not react well to it, tremendously bloated. Has anyone else had any negative reactions ? I've recently seen...

VydorScope, Believe it or not, there are actually people out there who speak languages other than English, and would not turn away from looking in to a product with a "foreign" name. You are lucky that you have had success with your bread machine of your choice, while not having to spend as much $. I agree with much of Jaten's reasoning for the purchase...

I was at a major grocery store chain, and they were giving out samples of a new brand of potoato chips. I asked "do they contain gluten?" The demonstrator said "oh Yes , it contains potatos. you cannot eat them!" I was at an somewhat upscale contemporary restaurant downtown, and I order a duck dish, which they specificially said they could make without...

Thx for the tips. good to know that Giovanni is gluten-free, I'll had that one to my list. California Baby , didn't think of using baby shampoo, good idea. I love the Aubrey skin care line, shampoos look good too. A general question: I find that my skin was particularly dry, before going gluten-free. Did anyone else find that?

Hi Jefferyd, I'm familiar with the area too, and psawyer has summed it up well. There is another awesome place I love to go to, called Restoran, it's a Malaysian restaurant, located at the SE corner of Major MacKenzie and Bayview, in the same plaza as McDonalds. They serve the best south east asian food. It 's family run business, and the owners...

Hi everyone, I recently discovered that Bulk Barn store, has Gluten-free bins. They have clear labels of which item, such as brown rice flour, that is Gluten free, and tag the scoops, to identify them for gluten-free use. So I think they really tried hard to cater to those in need for gluten-free baking. It seems like a great way to buy gluten-free...

jkmunchkin, you are so lucky to find a place that actually serves gluten-free chinese food! I miss Chinese food soooooo much, and maybe it has something to do with me being Asian But here in Toronto (Canada), I have yet to find an eatery that will make gluten-free chinese dishes. Maybe I'll have to drive across the border, for some good NY food...

I am in the process of trying to use all wheat/gluten free shampoos and bath gels. I thought I was the only one feeling that way. I was using Druide lavender bath gel, it contains wheat protein, which I only realized after I experienced increased itching and dryness all over, after my showers. I also share the feeling that it's better to eliminate...

For those of your searching for bread maker: In my search for a bread machine, finally decided on the Zojirushi. Comparing the reviews for the Cuisinart and the Zoji, I saw there were more postive comments for the gluten-free baking using the Zoji. I've already tried 3 gluten-free recipes they recommend, and I have to say that I'm really impressed with...

I am also looking for a bread machine and was considering the Cuisineart machine. The Zojirushi sounds great but kinda pricey. Does anyone know what characteristics to look for in a machine that will make good gluten-free bread? How long can we expect them to last? Hope you hear from you soon!

Hey Bean, I am very, very intersted in nutritional supplements and things that can help. thanks very much for the tip and all the great info on Glutimine. I am definitely interested. I ordered the book dangerous grains, but still waiting for it to arrive. Thanks for taking the time.

Hi Stephanie, I often get thinking about dextoxifying alot , when I'm feeling bloated and heavy. Then I 'm not sure if I'm just gaining weight or bloating or eating too much of the wrong thing, then I want to try fasting, or juicing or herbal cleanse, sauna, colonic....the list goes. But then before I can give it a real try, I get so wiped out, and tired...
