    Most quality pots and pans can be cleaned sufficiently. But of course, any scratched teflon might transfer previous gluten. A separate toaster is a must. I found it easier to make everyone gluten free for the most part. I am the primary cook. On occassion, I will cook regular pasta for my family or company. I clean the pot well afterwards and have...

    Here is a list that was updated in 2008. It might point you in a direction, but I would also recommend that you get confirmation from the manufacturer as things change frequently. Open Original Shared Link

    That was a very cold response and none of her darn business. But, you will come across many people who are ignorant to our issues. That's why self education is such a big part of our success. It is best to contact that manufacturer and use the experience of hundreds here, who have been where you are now. There's great information here.

    Many items you can check online. Google, for example "Tylenol - Gluten Free" . You would be surprise how easy things can be to find their gluten free status. The Product Thread here can be very helpful. Good luck.

    While checking on the Cranraisins, I found this great, current list. It's not always good to rely on lists for products (because they change frequently), but it sure is helpful in the beginning. Open Original Shared Link

    Ocean Spray Can Raisins are gluten free and are not "coated" or something. That "something: would have to be listed on the ingredient listing or allergen statement. Cranraisin Trail Mix and Cran Raisin Chocolate Covered cranberries MAY. Read the labels Do Ocean Spray

    It's often recommended that you eliminate dairy from your diet until you can heal. Dairy can give you some of the same symptoms as gluten if you have a compromised digestive system. Most often, dairy can be reintroduced down the road successfully.

    ARCHIVED Celiac Or Lyme?

    Lisa replied to AConSmith's topic in Doctors

    Hello A! So glad that you have found us. It's recommended that a person consume 3-4 slices (or equivelent) of bread a day for 6-8 weeks prior to testing, if previously gluten free. In addition, no testing is considered 100%. As you know, your son should be on a full gluten diet until testing is exausted, or he is. I would think that...

    This tread was started about two years ago. I think the point was, that restaurants put undisclosed ingredients in your "salad". So, do use caution. Regarding the airlines, they are a bit inhospitable. Funny how I keep defending them, even though they have cut my income in half. They are just trying to survive and catering to special needs, just isn...

    This might be a good opportunity to thank Betty Crocker for their Gluten Free Line, too. I'm a big supporter to those who make my life easier and more enjoyable (as I smell the chocolate cookies baking in the oven as we speak) Thanks, I will call.

    Hi and welcome. Sometimes a doctor's interpretation differs from that which you will find here. Do you have your blood test results and your pathology report on your biopsy? If so, could you post that information here. I would think you would want to know what is causing you your discomfort, not cover it up with a med, a your doctor prescribed...
