cyclinglady got a reaction from Big Hank in After My Celiac Disease Diagnosis, I Turned to Reishi Mushrooms for Relief
The author was never diagnosed with celiac disease based on her own admission I found on her earlier January 2020 posts:
“Hi - found out I had celiac disease almost a year ago (but think I’ve had it for about a year and a hal... -

I think it best to heal from celiac disease so that you can absorb the nutrients to help improve your bones. I have osteoporosis and had fractures 7 years ago just after my diagnosis. I am good now. No more fractures. A gluten free... -
cyclinglady got a reaction from Alejandro Ayala in Healing on a Gluten-Free Diet: What Does Recovery from Celiac Disease Really Look Like?
The fact that so many celiacs are not healing is disheartening. Note that the study said in the conclusion:
“Quantitative histology in well‐oriented biopsy sections reveals villus atrophy in the majority of patients with coeli... -

Progressive is the political left wing division of Progresso, hee , hee!
Yes, thanks for catching that. I've been watching too much national news lately.

cyclinglady reacted to trents in Is Modified Food Starch Gluten-Free and Safe for Celiacs?
Yes, Progressive offers more gluten-free soup products than does Campbells (if any) and they are stated on the label to be so. A safer alternative but if I remember correctly, a more expensive one. On the other hand, it seems Progressive... -

I think you mean "Progresso," but I could be wrong. They make a line of GF soups.

cyclinglady got a reaction from Gemini in Is Modified Food Starch Gluten-Free and Safe for Celiacs?
No way, I would consume Campbell’s! While it might not contain wheat, it might not be gluten free. They are most likely made on a shared line. Best to see of Campbell’s has a gluten free list on their website. If you want canned s... -

I do this with enchiladas. I have yet to do this with cabbage rolls, but I am going for it!!!!

I myself am a patient of David Sanders and I have been for the last 5years. He is a brilliant man especially in Gastroenterology. I have had RCD2 for the last 5 years and I am currently doing well and that is with the help of David Sanders... -
cyclinglady reacted to Scott Adams in Pepperidge Farm Offers First-Ever Gluten-Free Cookie
We don't have the nutrition facts, but will go out on a limb here and say that if you're at all worried about the mount of fat, sugar, carbs, etc., that these cookies might contain per serving, you probably should not be buying them.... -
cyclinglady reacted to GFinDC in Gluten and Cross-Reactive Foods
Hi Helen,
The article talks about celiac antibodies attacking proteins in nerve cells. That is not related to different foods causing a celiac like reaction (cross-reactivity).
I have additional food intolerances besides w... -
cyclinglady got a reaction from Bernadette Pimentel in Easy Gluten-Free Holiday Lemon Bars
If your child is now an adult and is coming home for a visit, I suggest that you purchased certified gluten-free items for her to eat and set them aside in your pantry away from other gluten-containing foods. Ask her is she has specific n... -
cyclinglady reacted to Mr. Pep'r in UK Celiac Man's Gluten-Free Meal for a 10-Hour Flight on TUI was 'Popcorn and Crisps'
I work in the airline industry, and I can attest that someone with Celiac Disease (like myself) cannot trust the airlines to take care of our health needs.
Unfortunately the Flight Attendants are not equipped, nor aware of the ... -
cyclinglady got a reaction from NNowak in Justin Bieber Ditches Corona Beer for Omission in Response to Gluten Intolerance
I was not disputing the study. I said that gluten-removed beers are a controversial topic within the celiac community. I suggested that celiacs or NCGS patients follow the recommendations of celiac research centers or non-profit orga... -

cyclinglady reacted to anonymousplease in The Gluten Contamination Study We've Been Waiting For
Those were my feelings exactly. I worry about what happens when studies like this are misinterpreted. I think they need to be followed up with how to apply what we've learned to everyday life safely and successfully.

cyclinglady reacted to kareng in The Gluten Contamination Study We've Been Waiting For
I guess my take away from all this is - sometimes using the same knife or oil or toaster doesn’t get gluten on the food ....... but sometimes it does. And why would we relax our standards and hope we get lucky?

cyclinglady got a reaction from icelandgirl in Justin Bieber Ditches Corona Beer for Omission in Response to Gluten Intolerance
Please do not take advice from a non-celiac disease publication — the Blast. Gluten-removed beers are hugely controversial in the celiac disease world. This article should be removed fro celiac.com. Another example of shoddy journali... -
cyclinglady reacted to Mr. Pep'r in Man Sues T.G.I. Fridays Over Allergic Reaction to Non-Gluten-Free Hamburger Bun
I'd much rather a restaurant say "gluten friendly" rather than provide a false sense of security that their meals are 100% gluten free and not cross contaminated.
The problem is simple, unless the restaurants are dedicated gluten... -

I am not discounting food intolerances, allergies, leaky gut or even cross reactivity. However, it is my understanding that cross reactivity is related to IgE allergies. For example, people with a latex allergy might cross react wit... -

cyclinglady got a reaction from squirmingitch in Are Grits Gluten-Free and Safe for People with Celiac Disease?
Celiac disease is like a chameleon. Symptoms can change over time. When I was diagnosed, I did not have GI issues, (just anemia), yet I had severe small intestinal damage. Most likely, you can have that piece of cake or bread and ... -
cyclinglady got a reaction from Awol cast iron stomach in A Love Note to the Partners of a Celiac Sufferer
Since my diagnosis (have healed per a repeat endoscopy/biopsy), I have learned two things. One, some celiacs are more sensitive than others and two, not everything is due to celiac disease (many celiacs have concurrent illnesses that ...
