ARCHIVED Gluten Free Meats
Lisa replied to echard's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Meat and fish in it's natural state, is obviously free of gluten. In the beginning, it's best to stick with the most natural. In the US any additives injected into the meat of fish, if it contains wheat, it must by law be listed. Rye, barley or malt are not frequent additives into these products, but do no have to be listed. Natural Flavors, also... -
If you have not already, I would suggest a full metabolic blood work-up. It will show if you have any mineral or vitamins deficiencies. I don't know what "squshy quick sand" feels like, but you may try some sub-lingual (melts under the tongue) B-12. Many time early Celiacs can be low in B-12 and Folic Acid. A good general daily supplement will also...

Open Original Shared Link Taco Bell has the least amount of safe foods than any other fast food places that I know of. Sorry. Most fast food places have a listings of gluten free foods and their allergen statements on line.

Rachel, Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that the gluten autoimmune reaction can take part in other parts of the body. This is not common, but it can happen. Specifically, in my friend "tiredofdoctors", Lynne. Lynne, does not have Celiac, but does have a gluten autoimmune response which manifests in her brain and caused damage. ...

ARCHIVED Do I Say I'm Gluten Intolerant Or Celiac?

I understand that it may with people with gluten sensitivities.

My response was directed to those with Celiac Disease specifically, as I have indicated. Cross contamination is an equal evil as is a Duncan Donut. Glutenease is not beneficial to an autoimmune response to the exposure of gluten to one with Celiac Disease. If it can help others without Celiac, great.

ARCHIVED Smuckers? Listerine? Colagate?
Lisa replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
All of Smuckers Jellys and Jam are gluten free. I am fairly certain that Listerine and Colgate both are gluten free, although I do not use those products. It's always good to confirm any information you find here with back-up statements with the company. Sometimes people with good intent post incorrect information. Remember that the ultimate responsibility... -
I am concerned for all those that check into this forum for information, that they might think that "CC" or cross contamination is a lesser degree to a true glutening. They are quite the same. And for Uncle Zack to say that a product like Glutenease is acceptable for cross contamination is not factual. UncleZacks soliicitation of this produce is a concern...

A Federal... -
ARCHIVED Let The Games Begin.... (long)
Lisa replied to ohsotired's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I wanted to add that your doctor is ill informed. Of course, as you know, going gluten free WILL effect your testing. If the GI cannot schedule you anytime soon, I would return to your doctor and request/demand the following panel for Celiac: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase... -
ARCHIVED How Do I Get To The Old Site?
Lisa replied to cmom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I understand your question. Did you order through Gluten Free Mall? Or, from the advertisers on this site? I'm not sure what you mean by the "old site". -
ARCHIVED Help With Grocery Shopping
Lisa replied to ANDOBEAR's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You're smart. Learning to interpret labels is the key to your success. HEre is a listing of companies who will clearly list all forms of gluten (ie. wheat, barley, malt and rye). Copy this and take it to the store with you. Open Original Shared Link I would stay away from "...shared equipment or manufactured in the same" for a while until you are... -
