  1. Here are a few recipes to begin with All delicious! https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showforum=27
  2. I just called Yoplait. In a world of law suits everyone is covering their behinds. When a container is listed as gluten free, they are confident there is no change of cross contamination. But most companies will not list something as gluten free unless it is tested, regardless of no gluten ingredients. Yoplait ( a General Mills Company) will always...
  3. Here is some information you might take with you. The article is from 2006, but still a good reference Good luck to you tomorrow. https://www.celiac.com/articles/1077/1/39-o...bese/Page1.html
  4. My thought is that you have healed and that you are in what some of us call "remission". It might take repeated gluten exposure for you to be symptomatic.

    Hi Minton, I can't tell you I know how you feel, because I don't. No one can really know how deep your loss it. But I did have a special horse when I was about your age. He was MY best friend. He kept all my secrets, listened to me sing songs (off key), let me vent all my frustrations and even played with my hair when I was sad. When I cantered him...
  6. Well, I gave it a good go. Nor has it been proven that waxed produce DO contain gluten, and thus unsafe for the gluten intolerant or those with Celiac. So I guess, each person has to weigh the facts and choose for themselves. I've enjoyed this thread and have learned a lot.
  7. Welcome to the Club! I certainly can understand your joy.
  8. Open Original Shared Link How reliable is the test? According to the creators at 2G Pharma Inc., the test is as accurate as a tissue transglutaminase (tTG) laboratory test that your doctor would request and uses the same technology to detect specific IgA antibodies that react with tissue transglutaminase (tTG), a well known indicator of celiac disease...
  9. You have written a very interesting post. I bet it will receive a lot of replies. Much of the frustration I see on this Board is that there is no "wide spread diagnosis of Gluten Intolerance". Doctors can't seem to see this "grey" area or spectrum of diagnoses. Although, I believe that Gluten Intolerance and Celiac are different, yet similar. The...
  10. What do you eat daily on your gluten free diet? The diet can be pretty complicated in the beginning. And it you have damage do to celiac, it will take longer than a week to see some results. A positive dietary response can be a diagnosis of sorts too. If you need help with the diet, we'd be glad to help out.
  11. Here is a thread you may be interested in: https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.ph...c=61096&hl=
  12. Sometimes, we will never know.

  14. DDT has been banned in the US since 1972. The limites that the FDA has set on DDT is the residual effects from DDT decades ago, that may be found in root plants, that may have absorbed the residual DDT from the soil. Although, we don't live in a perfect world, I'm glad that we have agencies working for the safely of the people they represent. But...
  15. How odd they would tell you that. DDT has been banned, world wide, since 1972 and 1984. I wouldn't worry too much about fresh fruit. Give it a good rinse and enjoy.
  16. Here is some great information that happygirl posted on another thread: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link And on 54 Plan: Open Original Shared Link Qualification Celiac disease by itself does not qualify a student for services. The illness must cause a substantial limitation on the child’s ability to learn or other major l...
  17. I don't see any thing that jumps out at me. The longer you are gluten free, you may find that your reaction time varies, which make it really, really hard to pinpoint a problem.
  18. Thanks Laura. Several people have been asking about Celiac and School lately. This will be a great source.
  19. What are they leaving out? What are vegicapsules?
  20. Andi, Please read this: Open Original Shared Link Well, celiac sufferers need worry no more. The Canadian Celiac Association recently released a study showing that blue cheese is in fact gluten-free. The study tested three blues where the mold is harvested off of gluten-containing media during production: Quebec's St. Benoit and Alexis de Portneuf,...
  21. Hershey is not top of my list for "good" companies. They will not disclose their sourse of "natural flavors" and prefer to protect their suppliers, rather than support the millions of people who purchase their products. Nope, Hershey products are not on my shopping list. Betty Crocker makes some drop dead Choc. Chip Cookie Mix. You can find it in the...
  22. The research organizations recommend 3-4 slices (or equivalent) pieces of bread a day for six to eight weeks. If you know that gluten is your problem, you should know that many here are self diagnosed and feel quite comfortable with that conclusion. If you would like to be tested. This is what you should request from your doctor: Anti-gliadin...
  23. Hi Fluffy, No, not on the Mod Thread. That's for business. But jump over to the "Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow" Thread and find out who in the Sam Hill is messing with that statue. Everyone is welcome But you have to put your silly on.
