Turtle, I've never tried because I don't use artificial sweeteners, but my aunt (who is a kitchen maniac) is one of those people who makes every kind of food to adapt to every person at every event. Therefore, she always makes cakes and cookies and stuff with sugar and splenda in her recipes. Before gluten-free, I've sampled - there is a slightly aftertaste...

ARCHIVED What Vegetable Are Easy To Digest & Cause The Least D?
lorka150 replied to Anne AMP's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
like 2kids4me mentioned, that is why i said the BRAT diet - toast and rice are in that, and they are very easy to digest. i probably wouldn't recommend the quinoa, if you introduce it and have never had it, that might cause havoc. for the small amount of things, for awhile it was just homemade gelatin, egg whites boiled, nuts (for some reason, although... -

ARCHIVED Why Can't We Get Rid Of Autoimmune Diseases?
lorka150 replied to chrissy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
There are four types of MS: one is Relapsing Remitting, and there are periods where you have attacks, 'heal', and then the process goes on again. After having that for awhile (the timeline is at about 30 years right now), it often changes to Progressive, and speeds downhill. -
ARCHIVED What Vegetable Are Easy To Digest & Cause The Least D?
lorka150 replied to Anne AMP's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
i would nix the red meat. are you eating / drinking anything else? at all? i would also get your hands on some acidophilus, and try some softer, blander foods (think: brat diet). for awhile, i was only eating about six things (eight months or so) and it helped readjust my system. -

ARCHIVED Celiac Disease... Circa 1972
lorka150 replied to luvs2eat's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm not surprised of the sugar - a lot of celiacs have huge blood sugar problems; as for the fats - well, fatty stools, right? undigested fats. i think that it is awesome it was in there - so they were off, yes, but at least they were exploring it at that time. -
In general, red meat is hard to digest, esp. if you've been off of it for awhile. However, you shouldn't 'force' yourself to have it strictly for the iron content: Nuts, seeds, molasses, dried fruit, potatos, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, rice, tofu, soybeans, legumes are all high in iron, as well as fortified foods (like cereal), and seaweed (which is extremely...

ARCHIVED Gluten Stored In The Fat And Tissues?
lorka150 replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I can answer the last part about taking awhile to get well - it's because you villi are damaged and they need to mend themselves. the other questions - they somewhat sound bogus to me, but i've really no idea. i hope you feel better. -
ARCHIVED Can Anyone Recommend A Bread Maker?
lorka150 replied to JoyJ's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Amaranth is fine. And really, any bread maker is fine... I bought a cheap Black and Decker before I heard any reocmmendations, and just pull out the paddle before the second knead. I know the new Cuisinart has a gluten-free setting. -

Hi Donna, I am not positive, so I don't want to lead you in the wrong direction. Someone, I'm sure, can post the correct answer. Mind if I ask where you are in Ontario? Think about it this way: if you FEEL better gluten-free, then GO gluten-free. You know your body better than any tests, doctors, anything. Regardless, if your symptoms subside... -
