  1. Welcome Mindy. Just wanted to say hello. Some of the moms will be here soon.
  2. By law if wheat is an ingredient it must be listed. That also means that barley, malt or rye are not required to be listed. Maltodextrin in the US is derived from corn and it is gluten free. MSG, although it may not be good for you, it is gluten free. Modified Corn Starch is also gluten free as the starch is derived from corn. It does take a while...
  3. This thread was begun in 2005. Any information provided in 2005 would certainly not be guaranteed/accurate.
  4. Ah, I got a little teary on that one. Out of the mouths of babes. Too bad we can capture that kindness forever.
  5. I used Lame Advertisement very successfully. I smoked for over 30 years and have not had a cigarette in six months with no desire. I have heard in the news that Lame Advertisement does have some added warnings regarding preexisting depression.
  6. Good luck and I hope you have a "successful" test.
  7. I have a different opinion. If the cheese is a US product and it does not list wheat (required by law) then it should be gluten free. Many, many veined cheeses are started with a synthetic base now. I am sure that there are cases when the starter is wheat based, although it should be listed on the ingredients. ***** Advanced Community...
  8. Holly, Continue what you are doing and try to be totally gluten free. Remember to check you shampoos, meds, lotions and tooth paste, etc.. Two weeks is still a relatively a short time. It can take up to several years to get back to that 100% that you remember. Stick to the diet and keep learning here. I don't think any cleansing will help...
  9. Hey Debi, Welcome to the Club! In Virginia Beach you will have great opportunities to find some gluten free products. I'm not too far from you. I would recommend that you keep your diet simple, naked as we sometimes call it. Meat, seafood, potatoes, rice, fresh veggies and fruit. Eat simply until you learn what products are safe to add. You should...
  10. Being gluten free for two months, you most likely have had some healing during that time. I don't think a week of gluten can reverse that. Your biopsy may or may not indicate Celiac.

  12. Pamela's Chocolate Cake with Rasberry Sauce.....sinfull.
  13. PLEASE don't assume anything in this game. Here is a current list of gluten free candies: http://files.meetup.com/30853/gluten-free%20Candy%2...ober%202007.pdf
  14. Open Original Shared Link Would Heidi Collins of CNN do as a spokesperson? She has done many PSAs, plublic speaking events and aired several report on CNN. Ken, you do wonderful work. You are a great advocate!
  15. Morning Kelly, You might find this link informative: Open Original Shared Link
  16. Everyone has some very good ideas. I remember three years ago, no one knew what Celiac Disease was nor ever heard the word and gluten sounded like a school supply. The Celiac community has made tremendous inroads in public awareness. Without the strong lobby from groups such as Celiac Sprue Association, Celiac Disease Foundation, GIG, NFCA and many others...
  17. Recipes have their own section here on the Baking Tips and Recipes Thread.
  18. Hi Lori and welcome: Here is a list of companies who will clearly list gluten (wheat, barley, rye, malt). It will be a great help while shopping. Open Original Shared Link

    ARCHIVED Gluten Digest?

    I am not familiar with it. What is it?
  20. "Living Well, Living Without", is considered the #1 magazine for living gluten free. Living Without Post Office Box 2126 Northbrook, IL 60065 www.LivingWithout.com I have never seen this magazine, but I understand that others have subscribed.
  21. https://www.celiac.com/articles/182/1/Unsaf...ents/Page1.html Here is the Unsafe List

    ARCHIVED Idiot!

    If it were me....... I would go to the Restaurant during an off time and talk to the manager. I would explain the situation, make reference to your "Medical Diet", and ask what can the restaurant provide safely. Be polite because it is an inconvenience to accommodate you and you are subject to potential risk. Your goal is to have them WANT to help...
  23. As much as this angers me, we have to take a business like approach. An angry e-mail will just further harden our goal. My husband always says that "you catch more flies with honey". If anyone plans to contact the "Stewart Machine" I would recommend that it be done rationally, logically and approach this issue in a business-like manner. Our...
  24. Laura (happygirl) would know. I'll see if I can knock on her door and see if she's home.
  25. A TIE MY A$$......I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. It's all about the bucks. (Grrrr, I better stop now)
