  1. And hugs back to you Amanda.
  2. Modified Food Starch in the US is generally derived from corn. If, in fact, it is derived from wheat, it will be listed as "modified food starch - wheat". Or, wheat will be listed in the allergen statement, by law. It should be fine.
  3. San-J has a "wheat free" Tamari, as well as the regular.
  4. Lori, Here is a list of companys who have a policy of always disclosing gluten of all forms: Open Original Shared Link
  5. "I never expected this to become so scientific! But it is really quite interesting to see the disagreement flare even in one post. What is your average person supposed to do? " I am not one to debate gfp ( do I look stupid? ) I suppose that the bottom line, as Pop said, is a personal choice. And, it's obvious here that many have different...

  7. Yes, it does "smacks of old thinking". All distilled products are now said to be safe (providing that nothing is added post distillation process). Now, with that said, there are a few people here who will react to all grain based products. I can't vouch for foreign products though. I passed up the Mexican Vanilla the other day, because I was not confident...
  8. Thanks Liz(ard)
  9. Shellfish is a culinary term for aquatic invertebrates used as food: molluscs, crustaceans, and echinoderms. Both saltwater and freshwater invertebrates are considered shellfish. Shellfish is a misnomer, because these invertebrates are definitely not fish. The term finfish is sometimes used to distinguish ordinary (vertebrate) fish from shellfish. Some...
  10. Welcome, This simple answer to your questions is...if you want to remain healthy for the rest of your life, gluten cannot be a part of your life. On the bright side, there are so many wonderful alternatives to wheat/gluten available now. I am glad that you found this site. It's full of very knowledgeable people, current product information, research...
  11. I don't know if anyone can answer that, but I suspect that at the risks of cross contamination would be HIGH.
  12. All Yoplaits are gluten free with the exception of the cookies and granola, dispite not being labled gluten free. They are in the process of changing containters to list as gluten free, but that will take time. Yoplait will clearly list all gluten. I eat it every day.
  13. Open Original Shared Link I can't answer your questions specifically, but this current listing may. Hope you feel better.
  14. No confirmation necessary. You positive blood test is your diagnosis. I biopsy can indicate the level of damage or look for other issues. Depending on the level of damage to your intestines it can influence your biopsy if you are on a gluten free diet. And, of course, depending on the length of time that you are on the gluten free diet. Many people...

  16. .....AND ANOTHER SUCCESS STORY! yeah! Pedro, It is great to hear from you again. I remember you kinds words to everyone, even in your struggles. I am happy for you and your family. And please, don't be a stranger.
  17. The rate of healing is in direct ratio with the amount of damage. In other words, it took some time to build up damage (providing it is Celiac that you have) and it will take a like time to heal. It does vary from person to person. Some feel better within days, others it may be weeks and months. Should you have Celiac, it may take up to two years to...
  18. A friend of mine had a perforated ulcer. It appeared to subside while resting, but increased with motion. Whatever it is, I hope you feel better soon. And don't hesitate to seek medical advise if you feel the pain is getting worse.
  19. I'm sorry Sharon. I know it must be so hard to watch your little one in pain. Wishing for the feel good fairies to visit your house tonight.
  20. Thinking of you and many well wishes coming your way.

Three-dimensional structure of cellulose, with four glucose units visibleCellulose is an organic compound with the formula (C6H10O5)n, a polysaccharide consisting of a linear chain of several hun...
  22. I am glad that you are going to pursue some medication advise. It would also be wise to make sure that there is nothing else to be concerned about. Pale colored stool can be a sign of many things, including liver issues and hepatitis. When they did my endoscopy, they found Celiac, gastritis and a large sliding hernia. Going gluten free has helped those...
  23. Do you have someone with you or can you call someone? A lot of people here use a heating pad for comfort. Drink lots of water.
