    Thanks Much Ursa Major ! I have heard of this, that Celiacs may need vitamin K supplements,though I wasn't sure for what. But there are so many facets to this disease,I can forget! I might get the Vite K supplements, because I can't always promise to eat loads of veggies-I do eat some salad,some vegetables,but it probably isn't enough. I have quite a...

    My God! my tonsils and back throat have been hurting me too for about 2 weeks, since i've been gluten-free for about 6weeks. I figure all my ailments are do to Celiac ,since I'm otherwise health as a horse.It hasn't gotten smelly,or white,but it was hurting bad enough for me to think"I might have to get these tonsils out".

    I know I had kidney pain and uterine pain when I ate a blend of wheat and wheat -free. And I am constantly tired.I don't have the kidney pain when I eat mostly wheat free. I'm OK with Citrus now, but I can never tell when this would start to irritate me. Like,for a while I could do milk, then for a while I couldn't (casein allergy celiacs have),then, after...

    Do Celiacs have any problems with blood clotting? I've been eating gluten-free for a while and now, if I scratch a bump it'll bleed forever where as before I went gluten-free it would seal up real quick.The gluten-free foods I eat are mostly,rice,milk,Orange juice,beans,vegetables,fruits,and meats,oatmeal and popcorn.I rarely eat gulten free baking flours...

    celiac disease is inherited - if that can be called pre-existing. I didn't notice it until I was 28,or so years old.I'm in pretty good health,but fatigue,and bone weakness,and our dietary needs have to be acknowledged and considered by others;I'm more paced and careful now that I know what I've got-I don't just run out and do all sorts,so it helps to be somewhat...

    Has anyone been able to get the pills that are supposed to digest gluten ? I know about it from an article on this celiac.com website that I read about a year ago. Some medical place in the state Maryland was the one that mentioned it , and I'm sure it exists , but no one seems to want us to have it, or else it would have been offered to us all. I think it...

    I know about Lectins. I read a book called "The Blood Type Diet" by a Dr. Dadamo and it says that foods have proteins that help or irritate each blood type -his website tell you about the lectins in each food so you can know what's in what you're eating. I'm a foodie and I've tried just about every food,but I didn't always feel good when I ate certain foods...

    I believe that's true , but where exactly are they getting it from ? Are they mixed race Blacks,Hispanics,and others that are part northern European heritage or do other race people have their own version of Celiac Disease?

    I really just eat eat fruits and veggies ,oats,corn johnny cakes,meats, you know ,whole foods-I don't bake all that much....I do eat a little bit of wheat bread,donuts,pizza,occasionally- if they ever come up with those pills that can make us CELIACS process WHEAT then sometimes I would eat Wheat pizza,Wheat Dunkin' Donuts and Wheat pasta ....sometimes and...

    Try Goat's milk -it's low in lactose,but I don't know if it has casein,I gotta read up on it. But it works OK for me. Look for MEYENBURGS goat milk .It's real whole milk dried,tastes pretty good. and I can't really eat soy ,or potatoes,or eggs too good either....?
  11. Candy
    I was on Lactaid milk for a while then the condition just went away by itself,sort of, now I'm on goats's milk which is low in lactose and gives me no stomach griping.MEYENBURG GOAT's milk-look around for it.

    In the past few weeks I 've been having trouble with cow's milk ,yougurt and cheese ,yet I feel the need to have milk, so I thought I'd get goat's milk-I also like goat's milk soap for my skin ,too. So anyway, I go to my health food store and I see whole ,dried goats milk for $10 but I didn't know that's what I had wanted and left the store without it ,so...

    It's not really a diet but a food regimem.You make it sound like a mean bias,but it's really customized medicine.No one should make you eat it,but it's a concept that a person might want to consider.It's not an eyecolor diet. The blood type diet asks your race because the race groups have different needs,Caucasians don't need as many beans as Asians. Many...

    Science hasn't said that a food's color is not meant for you. Where as their blood type diet research claims each food has a bloodtype too,in it's proteins, and the ones that don't agree with you bloodtype don't fully digest in your intestine and can do some minor negative things to you and make you age faster.I'd try it for 1or 2 months to see if I see and...

    That's how I feel about everything-I'm looking into to it. Many people on the internet said they tried it and didn't feel any different,my mom eats everything and seems in good health,but because I have several ills and am interested,I'm trying it out.I don't reject any food ,what one blood type can't eat another blood type can-tomatos and chicken won't be...

    How could celiac testing hurt you? I got tested at a lab online.You send in a saliva or stool sample,it costs $160-$350.They'll tell you if you have it.www.enterolab.com I'm trying the Bloodtype diet now I've been doing for about 3 weeks,my gut has primarily stopped hurting,and I feel more peaceful overall.I feel less stress,really,the stress just departed...

    Chocolate does not contain Gluten(or so I thought) and is Safe and Neutral for all bloodtypes O,A,B,and AB, so I always keep some in.It's like the only thing I can eat-Phew! Milk Choc does have Casein though I don't know if I'm allergic to that.My mother has my genes and Bloodtype and she can eat everything and I can't boo hoo.

    Rice and oats are gluten-free but give me gut pains .Why? They also give me head allergy symptoms-puffy itchy eyes,sneezing,runny nose -it's like summer allergies all year round. It keeps me miserable for a few days ,but it's the only grains I can eat. This site say there are certain types of wheat that don't irritate Celiacs, ancient wheats called diploid...

    Even though this is not about celiac,it is about general health .You might feel better over all if you follow or are aware of that fact that some foods don't mesh well with you blood type,and the ones that do are better for you.It's a concept ,an idea,and a researched subject. Try and get the blood type diet book at your library,or buy on amazon .com and...

    This may sound strange,but after going totally gluten-free for 2-3 months,I feel fine -so now I'm back to eating wheat and refined sugar.I felt I could eat it,so when I went to the supermarket I gingerly picked up two wheat rolls and a pumpernickel bagel and I ate them without pain or side effects or anything.I can't believe it,I feel like singing Aretha...

    WhiteSugar DON't contain Gluten , but lately its been making me have severe headaches and makes me tingle all over( painful/annoying) so I've been avoiding it , like Gluten. I don't feel symptoms when I eat honey,or brown sugar I can eat aspartame ,sorbitol.I'd like to try stevia but I am just now beginning to look into it. I EAT:HONEY BROWN...

    HEY,I want some bread. It fills my gut up! But your recipes sound pretty good-I eat most other foods too. I gonna try to bake some gluten-free bread,but I need to gather up all the ingredients,the rice flr. potato starch, tapioca flr. xantham gum.I have to look around this week at a local dietary supply or maybe order online. I did make Arrowhead Mills...

    I don't eat the yogurts with too many live raw germs in them-they make me feel sick like I cought a stomach virus or something.I don't eat them.I avoid them but I do eat the store brand yogurts and La Yogurt.Oh and Activa -it's new They were half price at my local mart-so I tried them ,they're supposed to regulate your digestive tract and stay in the small...

    I never had a sex drive problem. I certainly couldn't blame Celiac for my perfect sex drive in my younger years-though it wanes as you age,at least to me it does.I only have all of the other miserable celiac symptoms.

    Hi Again, I did write my state's senator addressing the cuts at NIH that would affect or hinder research of Celiac disease.But like postee TARNALBERRY says there must be a reason for the cuts and it probably is well thought out, I guess-unless the gov. is deliberately cutting things that are important to people of Northern European descent like those...
