GLUTEN FREE IN SLC's Achievements

  1. In regards to my "LAME" comment; it was more in regards to the situation as a whole. I understand the legal nature of this subject, and why she gave me the answer she gave me. However, I feel the employee could have explained more thoroughly the way in which their products are made, and the facilities they are processed in. I didn't mention this in my first...
  2. So I recently bought a bunch of the Tazo bottled tea drinks (all flavors) because they were on sale at Whole Foods. Anyways, after getting home I realized that I didn't even check the labels to see if there were any gluten containing ingredients; I just figured tea drinks would be gluten free. After checking the labels it doesn't list any gluten containing...
  3. Yeah Reactive Arthritis is one of the less common immunologic/arthritic conditions. For the past year I have been taking Sulfasalazine which is mainly used to treat Crohns and Juvenile Arthritis, it works now but took months to see results. My doctor was considering starting me on Humira or Enbrel. Thats great yours is under control though. From hearing...
  4. Why do you stay away from all grains? Even rice...? And what about brands of bread and so forth that claim to be completely gluten free? Thanks, Everyone's comments have been greatly appreciated.
  5. Well there is no question I have Reactive Arthritis. I actually was diagnosed with Reiter's syndrome which is a set of specific symptoms. But I was completely debilitated for 4 months, and it took a full year for it to go into remission. I couldnt even walk my joints were so swollen and my left eye was effected too. I am also positive for the HLA-B27 gene...
  6. Been gluten free for almost two months now, Yay!

  7. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac (April 10th, 2012). In the past two years I have unintentionally lost nearly 50 pounds. 20 of which have been within the past couple months. Finally being diagnosed with Celiac was a Godsend, in that I finally knew what was most likely causing my weight loss. I have always worked out and have been in really good shape...
  8. I don't understand how people with Celiac could be overweight. I myself was recently diagnosed with Celiac after loosing 40 pounds. Keep in mind I'm a male and weighed 160 and now I weigh 120 and people think I'm anorexic. I guess I must of had Celiac for years and got to that malabsorption state. I've been doing everything in my power to gain weight but...
  9. I was diagnosed with Celiac only a couple months ago and live in Utah. My current doctors seem to have no knowledge about celiac disease or just plain don't care. Does anyone know of any doctors in Utah that specialize in allergies/immune system problems. Thanks.
  10. I have been gluten free ever since being diagnosed. My arthritis symptoms have been under control for a few months now so it's hard to tell if going gluten free had any effect. I do wish there was more research out there on both disorders. From myself doing research it seems many people diagnosed with Celiac have related problems. Who knows how long I could...
  11. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac disease via small bowel biopsy on April 10th 2012. A year prior I was diagnosed with Reiter's Syndrome (Reactive Arthritis). I know that both diseases have to do with your bodies immune system; however, my current doctors deny any correlation between the two. My question is if there is anyway either Celiac or Reactive...
  12. I have recently been diagnosed with Celiac about a month ago, I have been a user of Nioxin shampoo conditioner for years but the past few months my hair has been falling out like crazy. Could this be from gluten in the hair product, or do you think it's from being Mal-nourished for so long? Just FYI I currently use Nioxin Cleanser 2 and scalp therapy 2.
