Thank you for this, it does make me feel better. I ate just plain rice a couple of hours ago and still feel really sick, I think I just have to take it easy, it seems like when I get sick I just can't eat things for a while and it sucks. omg yeah that sucks, blah. I get SUPER bad joint pain too, mostly in my hips, it makes me feel like i'm 80 years old...

No lol it's the opposite, I'm trying to look for validation that things ARE safe to eat. I've been trying a lot of new things the last few months and was doing well but then got very sick as a result of trying, and I'm starting with the one new food a week rule and trying to find things that will be safe to add. I just want to make sure I'm getting some...

Yeah they suck so much! Sounds like we're pretty similar then lol blahh not fun! Yeah for sure. I do eat starkist tuna in water, and peanut butter as my sources for protein and the tuna does not seem to make me sick. I make a lot of stir fries and things like that, and pizza with the udi's pizza crust which are always super good. I finally tried olive...

I see people posted at the very bottom saying it is actually certified, but I was unsure if this person was actually getting sick or not because from my experience, if anyone has ever gotten sick from a product I will almost surely get sick

I can tolerate other things but I'm scared to try a lot of things, too. I've had a lot of "gluten-free" things make me sick, and yeah I have a GI doctor. If things are made in a dedicated facility then I'm fine, like Enjoy life products are something I eat without a problem. And I've eaten a ton of those fruity pebbles treats ever since I was diagnosed...

Okay good to know, and I'm not sure actually, I do know that I react really easily to CC and was told I'm supersensitive, I do best when literally all I'm eating is rice and vegetables, but I have been able to eat gluten-free crackers and stuff, only glutino ones. the nut this, crunchmaster etc. make me sick. It seems like most processed foods make me sick...

Has anyone tried their products? Right now I eat Udi's bread and I really love it. But the store I shop at here has a bunch of canyon bakehouse prodcuts they rave about and their cranberry muffins look SO good and I've been eyeballing them for months. But I haven't gotten them because I saw someone on this forum saying that they aren't trustworthy or certified...

I take Slice of Life Multi+. They're gummies and taste wonderful which is great if you have a hard time swallowing horse pills like I do. Take two a day and the container lasts a month. I notice a big difference when taking them, I feel much better. I have been taking them for about 5ish months and so far they're great. I get them at my health food store...

In case anyone sees this in the future,I finally did get an email back from Twinings and this is what it says enjoy the tea!
-
I drink tea ALL the time, stash is said to be safe and I drink it the most and haven't had problems with it to my knowledge. I sure hope twinings is safe! I'm just coming out of a glutening at the moment and started drinking their peppermint herbal tea yesterday, so that would be a disaster if it weren't. So far so good. I emailed the company asking so...

ARCHIVED Need Updated Info... Having Difficulty With Broths, Soups Etc.?
elizabethh replied to elizabethh's topic in Super Sensitive People
Also, I am wondering about making a big bowl of mixed cut up veggies for the next day or 2 to snack on, but was wondering if that may be harsh on my system since sometimes veggies like lettuce carrots celery etc. are said to be slightly more difficult to digest? Should I avoid that and stick with the fruit or do you think maybe it would be fine? Any certain... -
ARCHIVED Need Updated Info... Having Difficulty With Broths, Soups Etc.?
elizabethh replied to elizabethh's topic in Super Sensitive People
Thank you I'm so irritated I didn't check into it like I normally do, I hadn't known what a crappy company they are, how pathetic. It seems the only brands I can trust are glutino, schar, and enjoy life. I also live off of fruity pebbles snacks and envirokids bars and those don't bother me either, same with Larabars as far as I know. I have a really... -
ARCHIVED Need Updated Info... Having Difficulty With Broths, Soups Etc.?
elizabethh replied to elizabethh's topic in Super Sensitive People
My mom just left to the store with a list of things, I honestly can't find anything helpful online so idk what to do, I want soup but I haven't found a 100% safe broth and the stores in my city dont sell just legit plain chicken it always has broth and junk added to it so I can't make my own broth out of anything other than just onion and potato. I'm having... -
ARCHIVED Need Updated Info... Having Difficulty With Broths, Soups Etc.?
elizabethh replied to elizabethh's topic in Super Sensitive People
Thank you, I do usually try to make a lot of my own things but right now im so weak i cant even get out of bed and you can literally see every one of my bones. I feel like I'm dying, and I really need something fast because it's to the point where it feels like it's an emergency and I need something ASAP. My family is freaked out because I look like a skeleton... -
ARCHIVED When Will It Get Better?
elizabethh replied to jcronan's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I second what everyone else said, it can make you feel crappy, just hang in there. I know when I went gluten free I felt dizzy and weak, but it gets better and when it gets better it gets WAY better! Make sure all products you're using are gluten free, lipstick/lipgloss is a big one, and having gluten free lotions and shampoos does help a lot so you have... -
ARCHIVED Schar Ciabatta Parbaked Rolls
elizabethh replied to pricklypear1971's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I LOVE those Schar breadsticks, the big soft ones. They're so good with spaghetti and dipped in the sauce too. The Meijer in my city carries a whole bunch of Schar products, and so far I really like them, except I can't eat the loaves of bread anymore as they give me bad shortness of breath which is strange. -
Unfortunately even if things say gluten free they aren't necessarily safe. Amy's brand is the first one that comes to mind. Ugh makes me want to barf just remembering those disasters, mine as well as the whole bunch of other people I know who have gotten sick from it. You also have to be cautious of CC, and some companies such as Food For life which I JUST...

ARCHIVED Need Updated Info... Having Difficulty With Broths, Soups Etc.?
elizabethh posted a topic in Super Sensitive People
Okay so I need some updated information because I keep finding outdated stuff. I'm like the most anal person ever about what I eat since I'm supersensitive, and I'm very hesitant to trust things that say gluten free as I've gotten burned from CC, and I know I absolutely cannot have Amy's, Bob's Red Mill, Pamela's etc. and almost nooo mainstream products... -
We Need To Start A Thread On Stupid Stuff Doctors Say!
elizabethh replied to mushroom's topic in Doctors
I have a good one! Just a little over a month ago I was at the doctor's office for the stomach flu, and he asked me about the celiac disease after seeing it on my chart so I just briefly explained to him what happens with that, then he says: Doctor: "Wow you need to get that checked out, you have that really bad and you need to find out what's going on... -
ARCHIVED What Do You Miss?
elizabethh replied to celiacchef's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The first thing that comes to mind is pizza, I really loved bagel bites and seriously ate those like every day. Also beef jerky, I haven't been able to find a gluten free beef jerky, not sure if there are any or not but that's a bummer.
