Just an update.... Another thing from the short food list is now on the long list of things I can't have... Ocean Spray (as well as every store knockoff brand) CranApple switched from HFCS to Cane Sugar. I was totally getting reactions from Hansens All Natural Cane Soda, and thought it must be the natural flavors or caramel coloring. I've drank...

Flower, Yes, I will hope to one day be tolerant of more things. Life can only be understood backwards, unfortunately it is lived in forward.... I think that what may have happened when I took all things gluten from my diet, I ended up overloading myself on other things - like the lectins (GottaSki has been a great educator for me as her experience...

Flower, What I found with my own body, once I was clean of gluten I felt amazing. That was short lived. I next found that potatoes gave me all of the symptoms of gluten. Removing them helped, but a few days later I was coming up with symptoms. I removed cheese, that seemed to help marginally. Then I removed my beloved frothy latte and I again started...

You didn't mention if they affected you?

What I found when I removed all gluten was that several other things affected me with all of the similar symptoms. That has led me down a road of discovering many of the things that provoke symptoms are "histimines". The emotional roller coaster is the worst.

I have issues like that when I have an unexpected glutening - or in my case, one of the several other things that now affect me in similar fashions as gluten (dairy, histimines). Are you gluten intolerant/celiac, or are you gluten free for general health reasons? Is it possible you unintentionally had gluten or cross contact?

If you haven't tried the Applegate Organic Grass Fed beef hot dogs, I highly recommend them... They are pretty unbelievable for a hot dog... ingredients: Organic Grass-Fed Beef, Water. Contains Less Than 2% Of The Following: Sea Salt, Organic Spices, Organic Dehydrated Garlic, Organic Dehydrated Onion, Organic Paprika, Celery Powder.

Wanna take a look? Open Original Shared Link I hope you can get this sorted out. It sure is tough...

Anete, You have hit on several items that "out of the blue" just started affecting me. It all started on a post i did several weeks back where I thought I was CC'd, but I wasn't - it was the french fries. I figured that out several days later when I made a baked potato at home - no CC possibility - but I did put ground black pepper on it. When I balanced...

Thanks for the response, IrishHeart. I haven't eaten out since that post of many weeks ago. Since then, I have eaten ONLY steamed, unseasoned, broccoli & cauliflower, fresh unseasoned beef, chicken, and pork, and Applegate organic, grass-fed beef hot dogs that are labeled as gluten-free, as well as casein free, Ocean Spray Cranapple juice, in addition...

I have no idea how I can go forward. I'm eating almost nothing, and came up poisoned by something. Since I'm only eating about 4 things, the one thing that seems most logical since I don't have it every day would have been the banana I had. When I was in deep fog and pain over the rest of yesterday, I totally forgot I ate one, but last night I remembered...

A book might be a challenge for specific branded products due to ingredient changes that happen frequently.

Leslie, It is great to hear about your super positive experience. It is always refreshing to hear about businesses that execute effectively. I know how painful the CC's are for me to deal with, I can only imagine how hard it must be to watch it poison your daughter.

I don't know, but I had to chime in on probiotics.... Today, for the 3rd time, the capsule popped before the pill pushed through the foil wrap (culturelle). That is a ridiculous way to package something so expensive. I'm as careful as I can be, but if the foil doesn't break I have to push harder. I'm going to start looking for a probiotic that doesn...

Many places/company's go as far as to say "Use/Freeze Date", meaning use it or freeze it by that date.
