    Fifteen dollars down the tube (pardon the pun). Mac Amplified Creme Lipstick contains WHEAT GERM EXTRACT. Just thought I'd pass it on. Dose anyone know what other lipsticks from MAC do not contain gluten. Not happy with me right now,

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    Lisa replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    Ann: If I may offer a question? Why is it that many doctors are so ill informed on Celiac when it goes 97% undiagnosed? Upon dx's by a GI, I was so unhappy with my PM Doctor, after 20 year, and chose another. He ran blood work on me after being gluten free for three months, which of course resulted in a neg. test. (I was confirmed by a biopsy...

    If, in the US, the product says that it is gluten fee (roll it over and verify for yourself), it should be gluten free. If it says "Wheat Free", it will not be required to list barley, rye, malt and oats for some.(other gluten ingredients) Gluten free labels mean that it should be safe to consume. In other words: Gluten free - great Wheat Free...

    Mitch: I can answer for myself and maybe others have similar issues. I tend to "graze" all day. I nibble here and there constantly all day. I do not eat big meals as it makes me feel uncomfortable. It seems to help me. Perhaps you have excess stomach acid that causes the nausea and the food intake settles you stomach. If your son has...

    True.... an overuse of antacids can cause symptoms similar to being glutened with gas, bloating, cramping, nausea and the big rush to the bathroon with the big "D".

    Has anyone heard of Frey's Syndrome? It is the result of damage to the parotid gland (saliva) and the symptoms result in gustatory hyperhidrosis (perspiring while eating or shortly after). Could this be associated with Celiac or autoimmune diseases? I don't expect many replies, but I sure would like to hear from anyone who has ever heard of this...

    Christina: Welcome to the board and my I say that Anabelle is a lovely name. I had constipation issues before my Celiac was triggered and I believe it is common among us. If you intend for Annabelle to go gluten free and dairy free, you have just hit a gold mine of information that can be found no other than here. We have a lot of extremely knowledge...

    Hanna, please explain? Call the manufacturer and ask if the product is gluten free.

    OOPS, Ursula, sorry, I did not pick up on the UK link. Thanks for the clarifications.

    Deb, thanks for posting....I knew a little, but not much.

    well done

    You know, it is all just a mind game. There are stages in this deal: 1. Shock and Awl 2. Total confusion and feeling of helplessness 3. Study Stage - soaking everything possible 4. Overwhelming - feeling how impossible this must be 5. Confidence building - you can read labels now 6. Anger - because you can't have that fried...

    Modified wheat starch , is derived from wheat and it is a NO GO for people with Celiac....Food pantry food. sorry

    There is a condition associated with autoimmune diseases call Raynaud's Syndrome. (not sure of the correct spelling) and it the numbing of feet, toes and finger tips. They get numb and cold and when the circulation begins again there is a burning feeling. Many people here on the forum suffer from this. I am sure that they will contribute soon.

    What do you do with leftover turkey............throw the whole darn thing out the window.

    I have been thinking about my post. It was totally emotional for me. I certainly did not mean to add to your bad day. If I did, I am truly sorry. It is tough beginning the diet, just ask the tons of people that I asked, asked and asked. I have been where you are. Please feel comfortable to ask any question that you have. Ask away with a product...

    Empty nest and add a newly retired husband. Shut, we were both out of jobs. We were dealing with this loss, his on his own and me on my own. It will take some time and adjustment, but it will resolve as long as you talk to your spouse. Celiac, yes it's a major pain in the butt....and I can totally sympathize with our frustration. And, it's just plain...

    A great find of me in down south podunk.......was Philly Cheese Cake Filling, ready to serve. We served this at Thanksgiving with homemade fresh cranberry sauce - leave the crust and serve in a clear cocktail glass. For those who miss cheese cake, this is a pretty good substitution...There can be alot of creativity with this product. I was glad to...

    T: Turkey sushi.........ug, that is so way over the hill BLAAAAAAAAAAH

    Art Girl: I gotta try that one. It's great for an afternoon snack. I mix Underwood Deviled Ham (gluten free cause I called and printed), with cream cheese. It's good with chips as well. To add: it's REALLY WONDERFUL in scrambled eggs!!!

    There was some discussion here many months ago. Obviously, it generated great excitement. I never liked beer before my dx (lucky me) so did not pay too much attention. I do hope so for all those that miss it.

    Maker's Mark is gluten free. All distilled liquors are gluten free. The distilling process removed the gluten out of the liquor. Kaluah is gluten free. Crown should be fine. I drink Seagrams 7 with no problem. Virginia Gentleman Whiskey is double distilled. Flavored drinks, I don't know anything about, and would be cautious. Wine is gluten free...

    Michele: This is a holiday weekend in the US, so most are away from the computer. I did the endoscopy and my GI saw flattening of the villi and my biopsy was consistant with Celiac. Not the same as your case. Lisa

    If there is any wheat it will be listed by law, but they do not have to list barley, malt, or rye. I would expect that the later would not be in the ingrediences.
