ARCHIVED They Changed My Cereal.
lorka150 replied to Chicklet's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Bob's Red Mill does NOT label their cornmeal as glutenfree. It is at their gluten-containing plant. Their products labelled gluten-free are done in a separate facility. -
ARCHIVED They Changed My Cereal.
lorka150 replied to Chicklet's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
What cereal was it? I'm in Canada and have noticed some changes as of late on my products but have called and confirmed they were still safe. -
ARCHIVED Persephone And "pom" Pomegranate Juice
lorka150 replied to oceangirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yes, so says their site: Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED How To Get Rid Of Hives
lorka150 replied to wowzer's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I had a bought of nasty reactions last year and took Benedryl liquid, which at the time, was gluten-free. I would assume it still is. I am not sure about the capsules. -
Rachel - do you have a link to that info? That is a good one, I'd like to save it in my favourites. Thanks!

ARCHIVED Amy's Frozen Cheese Enchiladas
lorka150 replied to Tracy13's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Amy's practices really strict cross contamination practices. -
ARCHIVED Bobs Redmill Soy Flour?
lorka150 replied to catdee's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I would never use anything of Bob's not in the dedicated plant. I have gotten very sick from two of the things not in the plant from before I realized there were two (in the first four months or so of gluten-free years ago). Arrowhead Mills makes a soy flour if you need one. -
ARCHIVED Corn Chip Problems?
lorka150 replied to julirama723's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
To avoid this, I make all of my own. Cut corn tortillas, season if you want, squeeze a bit of lime if you so desire, oil a little, bake til crispy. -
Millet
lorka150 replied to bakingbarb's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Millet is, however, gluten-free. Just to not confuse new people to the disease and diet. -
ARCHIVED Too Many Prunes! Need Recipes Using Prunes.
lorka150 replied to ArtGirl's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
You can always chop 'em up and put them in baking. Delicious in pierogies, too. -

ARCHIVED Fellow Canucks
lorka150 replied to L.A.'s topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Not to Canada. They don't sell it anywhere around me, but my gluten-free mom likes it and sometimes we pick it up over the border, a skip away for us. -
ARCHIVED Bike 11 Miles A Day And Still A Gut
lorka150 replied to Tykes's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Are you strength training? Eating properly? Only biking? Doing the same route daily? There are a lot of factors to gaining muscle, and losing fat. I can help you with some specifics if you want - I'm a personal trainer, and can offer you some advice if you want to explore your options. -
ARCHIVED Eating For Performance Vs. Weight Loss
lorka150 replied to munchkinette's topic in Sports and Fitness
Good luck with your training! Feel free to PM me if you want a woman's point of view (although I am sure your brother is well-versed in all areas). Again, good luck! -
ARCHIVED Eating For Performance Vs. Weight Loss
lorka150 replied to munchkinette's topic in Sports and Fitness
Yes, definitely focus on performance vs. weight loss. It is quite likely you're not eating enough if you're second guessing if you are are. I can help you out if you want; I'm a personal trainer. -
ARCHIVED Quaker Crispy Mini's
lorka150 replied to Salem's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Salem, In another celiac forum I read that in the states there are cross contamination issues, but in Canada, they are in a dedicated facility. I don't eat them myself, but that is the last I heard, and I see you're in BC. I would call and just double check if I were you. -
ARCHIVED Niagara Falls, Ontario
lorka150 replied to pixiegirl's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Are you going on to be on the US or Canadian side? Try buffaloglutenfree.org for the states side. I'm from the Niagara Region on the Canadian side, so if you are going to certain places, I might be able to guide you to some places close by. -
ARCHIVED Swiss Chalet (so Mad Right Now)
lorka150 replied to KristaleeJane's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
My mom eats there often. She doesn't order the fries, but they do have the * that indicates in the same fryer, and they do have breaded chicken. -
ARCHIVED Anyone Have A Casein Free Kitchen?
lorka150 replied to tiff001's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
If you rid yourself of gluten, there probably isn't anywhere else that casein might be hiding. I have a completely gluten and casein-free house; I can't think of anything that would particular to either protein. -
I am vegan and gluten-free, and eat a primarily raw foods diet. I do eat a lot of nuts and seeds, but because it's good fat, and I eat all whole foods, I am not concerned. If I was getting fat elsewhere in large amounts (dairy/eggs, oils), I would just watch the amounts.

ARCHIVED Bulk Xanthan Gum In Canada
lorka150 replied to theceliachusband's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
The extremely small amounts we use makes it last a long time. I would never buy bulk (because it's often not very sanitary, plus extreme possibility of cross contamination) but most stores will purchase you a case in their order, which often saves money. -
It has a much lower level on the Glycemic Index, so some diabetics can tolerate it. That being said, you can use it 1:1 for honey, maple syrup, et cetera, and use 3/4 c. per 1 c. of sugar, adjusting liquids by about 1/4 cup (use your eye - that is what I do). Have fun!

ARCHIVED Tastey gluten-free Protein Powder?
lorka150 replied to glutenfreegirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I use pure hemp protein; it's by far the most nutritious. -
ARCHIVED Nuts And Seeds In Canada
lorka150 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Looking for safe nuts and seeds - other than the almonds and walnuts, the others at Costco aren't on safe lines. I'm mostly looking for pepitas, sunflower seeds, hazelnuts, brazil nuts, cashews. Raw, too. I'm in Canada, and don't want to order online. Thanks! -
are you sure you aren't getting enough? most people think they aren't, when indeed they are - and the majority of north americans get too much protein, anyway. i would count your diet and make sure before you have to unnecessarily adjust your amounts. many gluten-free grains are much higher in protein than wheat, too.
