AntiGluten

I'm originally from The Woodlands, but I'm living in Austin right now. I might end up moving back in February when my current lease is up. I do go back on occasion to visit whenever I get a long weekend from work.

Hey John, I'm glad to hear that you're feeling a lot better! I know it must be difficult at first, but it does get easier as time goes by. Since being diagnosed I've discovered that I don't react well to other foods like milk, soy, eggs, and yeast. So I try to avoid those as well. Like Amybeth said, Outback has a gluten free menu in the restaraunt...

Hey John, It definately sounds like celiac. And like you said, your recent spike in symptoms can very easily be related to the beer, which has a lot of gluten in it. Luckily I was diagnosed when I was 18 and didn't drink in high school, so I never acquired the taste for beer. But I have tried the Ramapo gluten free beer and think it's pretty good. ...

Hey Carrie, My mom and I both have been diagnosed with celiac for three years. We did gluten free for little over a year and still were not feeling all that great. We heard about the SCD and tried it out. I'd say after being on it for a couple weeks we were both feeling really great. One morning I felt like a 10 out of 10 for the first time in a couple...

I've found the answer to my own questioin. It's at this website in paragraph #16: Open Original Shared Link "The protein composition of cow and goat milk is fairly similar, although the typical major alpha-s-1 casein in cow milk is absent in goat milk and the formation of casein curd under rennin action is different." This is actually a very...

I've been gluten free for almost 3 years now but have still felt kinda crappy. I did the Enterolab test for yeast, milk(casein), and egg sensitivity a few months ago and the results showed that my antibody levels for all three were around 30 and normal is less than 10. So I'm immunologically sensitive to these foods. I was just wondering if anybody knows...

I too have had this before. It actually started after I'd been gluten free for awhile, about a year or so. I would be half asleep/half awake and want to move or get out of bed, but can't. I've also had the feeling of something or someone being in the room. I was watching some show on Discovery about aliens abducting people while they sleep, and of course...

You're going to A&M? That's cool, I live in the Woodlands, about 2 hours away from College Station. I'm actually going to a community college right now because of my disease so i can live at home and watch what I eat. I was diagnosed as a senior in high school, so going off to college in my condition would have been extremely difficult. I'm going...

Hey pogirl, I'm 20 and was diagnosed when I was about your age. I started feeling a little better too, my diarhea stopped immediately and haven't had much trouble with since for that the past few years. But I still feel tired a lot. I keep a food diary like Yankee does and through trial and error found out that I react to soy. I cut it out of my diet...

I gained 12 lbs. in a little more than a year after going gluten free. Tiffany's right, if you're underweight you're probably gonna gain weight by goin gluten-free. This makes sense too cuz your intestine will start to heal and absorb more of the foods that you're eating then before. Besides, if you're worried about losing too much weight, just eat more...

Well my mom and I got to go see the doctor today because there was a cancelation. So we go and he fills out a subscription for provigil. Then when we get home my mom looks it up and finds out that it's not gluten free. Why in the hell do these drug companies put gluten in there products?? If they were smart they'd know that there is a large group of the...

I haven't checked this site in awhile but i'm glad, in a way, to see that I'm not the only person suffering from fatigue and excessive sleepiness. I hope this thread is helping people as much as it has me. I PMed a few of you with extra questions concerning your replies. I ordered the Medipro powder that Emily suggested yesterday. Hopefully it'll get...

Been reading a lot about chicken. The added broth is suspect and now I'm told that the "minimally processed" might be soaked in a soltuion to make it moist that is not gluten-free. This is getting so frustrating! Any suggestions or comments-Thanks!!
