ARCHIVED New Cobb Salad At Panera Bread
Lisa replied to Wildcat Golfer's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
You can find Panera's Gluten Free opitons on line www.panerabread.com -
I have long forgotten my source for this, but it's my understanding that you absorb 75% of the fluid intake in your small intestines. If you have villi damage, it's a reasonable cause for extra ordinary thirst. I experienced this in the early stages after my diagnosis. Listen to you body. But maybe you can concentrate your fluids earlier in the day...

ARCHIVED What Is The Point Of Diagnosis?
Lisa replied to TotalKnowledge's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I agree tremendously Tim. The interchange between "gluten sensitivity" and "gluten intolerance" have created great misunderstanding, confusion and frustration here on C.com for the many years that I have been involved. -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Food Guide
Lisa replied to Rachelmoon's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
www.triumphdining.com ...has a Grocery Guide. It's a great asset for the first year after a diagnosis. After that, you should be able to read labels. Lists are great in the beginning, but ingredients change frequently and then they become unreliable. Truimph puts out a new listing annually. But reading labels is essential in the long run. -
Any time you eat at a fast food restaurant you should assume the risk. Even though a product may be considered gluten free, the risk for cross contamination is great. I don't mangers would intentially lie to you about their proceedures. Have you considered a dairy issues? Especially if you are new to the diet and have not healed. Or, if you have...

ARCHIVED Boxed Wines
Lisa replied to mom2blondes's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Ah yes, glutenous wine barrels comes up from time to time. Until wine manufactures are subject to the full disclosures as in foods, we might not ever know whats in that bottle. But, I would assume that IF there was residual gluten from a wine barrel that it would be so insignificant. Common sense would imply that you don't contaminate good wine with wheat... -
ARCHIVED Boxed Wines
Lisa replied to mom2blondes's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have not seen information specific to boxed wine, but wine is naturally gluten free. Wine Coolers need to be checked, because not all are gluten free. Here is a list of safe alcohols: https://www.celiac.com/articles/222/1/Glute...ages/Page1.html -

ARCHIVED Can Something Be Gluten-free But Still Contain Wheat?
Lisa replied to foodiegurl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Even though, distilled alcohol is considered safe for Celiac to consume, I have known several super sensitve who will react to distilled grain based fluids, even though no detectable level remains. So maybe this debate may not have a conclusion? Maybe some people have to determine what level is safe for them. -
ARCHIVED Can Something Be Gluten-free But Still Contain Wheat?
Lisa replied to foodiegurl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
A product cannot be gluten free and contain a detectable level of wheat. A product can be wheat free, yet not gluten free. -

ARCHIVED Stupid ?/products
Lisa replied to ME AND ME's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
That is certainly not a stupid question and it's been asked quite a bit here. Shampoos and body washes should be gluten free because there is a chance of getting into your mouth while you bath or shower. Feel free to ask way. The learning curve is very steep when your tackling a new lifestyle. This is a great place to ask for help. -

ARCHIVED Stool Test Positive!
Lisa replied to jshelton999's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I will attempt to answer all your questions from the ground up. Celiac is an autoimmune disorder. Consuming gluten triggers an autoimmune response, which will turn your body against itself. This occurs in the small intestine. There are some other foods that can create the same response by destroying the villi, but I believe it is rare. If I understand... -
ARCHIVED Cadbury Cocoa -- gluten-free?
Lisa replied to mairin's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips

ARCHIVED Stool Test Positive!
Lisa replied to jshelton999's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I don't believe that Enterolabs offers a "Celiac Panel". They can test you for a gluten sensitivity, but cannot test for Celiac. Never have. -
