    Same here....we react to Udi's, but so far, we've been good with Rudi's. I really like that the pieces are larger, and you seem to get more slices with each loaf. My kids, and their gluten eating cousins loved it too.

    Consider really cutting down on the Udi's bread....we were eating it nearly every day for a year, and my son started having mild seizures (his reaction to gluten) because of it. I took me forever to pinpoint it, I never thought to take Udi's out. It must have trace amounts that some are sensitive to, and it builds up over time. The same could probably...

    Thank you!! Hopefully if we play it safe, she'll be okay. I know what you mean about the horse bug....I used to ride quite a bit when I was younger. It is such an amazing feeling, it just never leaves you. I hope this works out for my daughter...I think this will be a great confidence booster for her. Something about horses is so therapeutic on many...

    I have signed my daughter up for riding lessons. She adores horses, and I know she would love this. Now I'm wondering if I made a huge mistake. She is extremely sensitive....the last time she was glutened, it was from painting a mold made from plaster. Apparently the inhaled gluten made her more sick than ingesting it. She had bloody noses, and ran a...

    You might also think about having her evaluated for a learning disability. My daughter has been gluten free since the age of 3, but it didn't clear up all of her learning issues. She has an expressive/receptive delay. It wasn't overtly obvious, had I not had her evaluated, it would have probably just seemed like she was lazy and didn't want to try...

    My daughter and I are super sensitive, and I have one child who is allergic to almost all of the top 8 allergens. So, our menu is really boring and simple Breakfast: Pancakes, Mesa Sunrise cereal, or Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal (so good!) Lunch: Usually dinner leftovers or sandwiches Dinner: Taco salad, Chili pie, grilled chicken...

    Also, regarding the high fat content....classic malabsorption, you were right in asking about that. That's what makes the stools so foul smelling. You are on the right track mom, now you just need to find a more knowledegable doc!

    Oh, these doctors!! What a load of crap (pardon the pun ) There are some great doctors out there, but there are always some very ignorant doctors who make these nonsense, catch-all diagnoses that mean nothing. Toddler's diarrhea is such an outdated, ricidulous diagnosis. And I am so tired of docs discounting a child's description about how they feel...

    That happened to me last year with a different ADHD and autism cookbook. It was $25, and huge, so I thought it was a real find. Many of the muffin and bread recipes didn't work, and made me wonder if any of the recipes were ever tested. It's so infuriating when a gluten free cookbook is a dud, b/c not only have you wasted money on the book itself, but...

    My heart is just breaking for your little girl. I can't believe there are teachers out there actually like that! We have been incredibly lucky so far...we had one teacher who really did not get it, and that was a rough year. However, the past two years we have had relatively young teachers, who had a much greater awareness of allergies and have been...

    True....it's hard to tell. I thought it was a classic gluten reaction, b/c looking back there was a time after school she got sick and I never found the source. Turns out it was the day they made that darn fossil tooth. I just didn't connect it at the time. But now I just don't know. She's still running a high fever, and everything's come back negative...

    My daughter does...she's running one right now, after a glutening on Sunday. I brought her in to the doctor today, since it's day 4 of fever. Nothing could be found, so I'm assuming it's her immune system gone awry. Hope your challenge goes okay and you get to feeling better soon!

    My dd is in the midst of one of the worst gluten reactions she's had in the past 5 years, and she didn't even ingest it. At school, the kids had made dinosaur teeth out of plaster. I did not know that the plaster had flour in it (big duh moment, talk about guilt). So Sunday, I let my dd paint her dinosaur tooth. She scraped the sand off of it, played...

    Thank you for the almond milk recipe! I soaked my almonds last night, so I'm excited to make some milk today. Woke up this morning without a nagging headache for the first time in a while, so I'm really hoping that carrageenan is the culprit that was making me sick for so long. Almond Breeze was about the last processed food item I bought...I have...

    I know in our case, my daughter's weight dropped down before her height did. She first lost weight at her 18 month check up, she had lost 2 pounds. But, she had grown about 1/4 inch, so no red flags went up. This went on for another 18 months, when at age 3, she still had not regained any weight, nor gained any height. It all depends on the doctor...
