    You ate bread crumbs tonight?? Yeah, you really won't be feeling the benefits of the gluten free diet until you are 100% gluten free. You need to be on guard all the time. No mistakes. It's difficult, but it's essential if you want to heal damage and feel better.

    Consider yourself lucky, then. I can't find it in my Henry's, WholeFoods, Jimbos, Trader Joe's. At least, not consistently. SOMETIMES one of the stores will have it. I got sick of the disappointment, though, and have become a strict online orderer.

    I would like to suggest you get the gluten free breads. I kow $5 a loaf sounds like too much, but you can feed her half sandwiches, a single slice of toast with that egg, a single piece of french toast, a half a grilled cheese, a half a pbj, a slice of cinnamon sugar toast, a piece of buttered bread with stew or make a single slice of it into a piece of...

    Your mom is nice, but you're right... You can't eat those. Most oats in the U.S. are considered UNsafe as bits of gluten are usually in them through cross contamination. Most celiacs will NOT eat them. Plus, the MALT is GLUTEN. and WHOLE GRAIN is GLUTEN Have you ordered breads from Kinnikinnick? Having bread makes your life EASIER. Sandwiches...

    It is a genetic autoimmune disease. You inherit the gene from a parent. Your family members should also be tested for the disease. How are you doing on the diet? Have you found gluten free foods to eat that are helping put the weight on?

    Outback Steakhouse has a gluten free menu and is very reliable in getting the food right. I'd think about getting him packaged gluten-free cold cuts from Wholefoods for sandwiches, his own butter, cream cheese, mayo *ask what he likes to save costs. Also, your family can finish those off if there's any leftover. Eggs, oscar mayer bacon, bushes baked...

    Could it be your gall bladder?

    Well, she says her dh doesn't want her kid to be "the sick kid" in front of his friends at sleepovers and other social gatherings. I have to believe a dad in this position may feel that his child is going to look weak, be picked on, and not be accepted by the other kids because of the disease. I think the dad wants what's best for his kid, but he's limiting...

    Karen, Try counting to ten! Seriously, sometimes we train ourselves to have those tension releasing time scheduals. You could probably retrain yourself not to let it all out at once at 5pm everyday. Maybe think about getting half of it out of your system mid-afternoon when less folks are home? You wouldn't have to actually get mad, but instead, you...

    Itching can drive anyone a little nuts. My son appears autistic when glutened. He doesn't talk or move a lot or pay attention. He can't focus. He's pretty damned near non-responsive. He even drools with his head hanging over. He's totally spaced out. Just goes to show you how differently gluten can affect each person. When my son is gluten-free, he...

    What connection is your husband not making? I mean that in a very nice way. I can only assume that he is missing a piece of critical information concerning Celiac Disease. Is he in denial? That's a reasonable way to feel initially. Does he realize Celiac disease is not an allergy? That is is an autoimmune disease? Here's not "normal". A young man...

    Sharpie markers are great for labeling. I also used to use those colored circle stickers you buy to mark prices on yard sale items.... You know what I mean? I would put a colored sticker dot on my son's foods. For us the main thing to do has always been to write the kid's name on the food that was for him. Or write in great big letters..."NO...." I always...

    Well, on the bright side, it will eventually be "normal" for YOU! I know this feeling you're having. I had it when my youngest son was dx. I thought I couldn't do the whole gluten free thing because I wouldn't be able to order Pizza on nights when I was too tired to cook.... *Only people who don't understand HOW much you have to change your life will...

    Open Original Shared Link All of these bread products are tasty and filling. There are even donuts! Adding carbs to the diet may help her gain weight. We like the white tapicoca rice bread. Make sandwiches, french toast, etc. Open Original Shared Link Chebe is nice because she can make anything bread related she'd like. Even "hot pockets"-- stuff...

    How about popsicles or Italian ices in cups? I know cake is traditional, but different is fun. Or multi-colored melon balls with blueberries, strawberries, grapes, etc...all mixed together and put in little clear tumbler glasses so the colors show? You could put those little parasol umbrellas in each cup? That would be very attractive looking and a nice...

    I was just researching it on the net and found so many confusing things regarding it. I guess there's no real clear answer everyone agrees on so if you have a weird condition, you heap on leaky gut?? It seemed like that on the sites I was checking out. Makes more sense to tie leaky gut into a condition that causes intestinal inflammation...like celiac...

    Read lables to be sure, but most tuna in a can is gluten free. I actually don't know of any canned tuna that has gluten.
  19. Jnkmnky
    Isn't leaky gut the result of inflammation caused by being gluten intolerant? Can you have leaky gut without having Celiac disease? I thought you couldn't have leaky gut without Celiac disease.

    Well, I guess altering the recipe is going to change the outcome. Keep fiddling with it and maybe you'll come up with a mixture that turns out well.

    Hormel salami is gluten-free. Lots of deli products are safe, you just have to read the label before ordering, then remember what you got so you can always order that brand. You get to bug the deli clerk and ask to see the entire ham, etc so that you can read the ingredients. They just love that.... Oscar mayer bologna is gluten-free. So are their...

    Have you tried Kinnikinnick breads? They're really good and normal tasting. Pack well, are soft, no funky after taste. Open Original Shared Link Hot dogs chopped up in a thermos with baked beans- Sm tupperware with peanut butter and a baggie of gluten-free pretzels *Ener-G are good* Meat roll ups Cold chicken nuggets with a gluten-free bbq sauce...

    I don't like the red bag of Chebe unless I add an additional flavor that masks the underlying flavor. I usually add lots of garlic salt to the red bag mix. I also add extra garlic salt to the other flavors. I use an avocado/lemon or an avocado/basil oil I found at Whole foods instead of reg oil. I really like the hint of flavors in the oils. I have found...

    Making pizza with chebe seemed like too much work to me. I prefer to make pizza sticks with it. It's way easier and I can enlist the help of the kids. Making them is equal to rolling out "snakes" with play-doh. We add pepperoni, cheese, extra garlic salt and whatever else we're into. My son made his pizza sticks with chopped pineapple and bacon.

    Rachel, someone here posted that if you put a bit of butter on each side of a corn tortilla and warm it up on each side, it will have a better consistency and ....it's true. Totally changes the corn tortilla.
