    Viola, Were you kidding here ? I have a chihuahua that will not let me brush her teeth and would like to try this .... OH, and mine get a bite of healthy people food on top of their dog food ... meat + green beans + rice. Spagetti goes over well too though. Thanks, Marcia

    I like the organic Muir Glen and organic Bertolli. I haven't called about them, but so far so good. They don't have soy and Newman's does. marcia

    I woke up this morning remembering that my labs over the years (the ones I have found to date anyway) did not reflect a low B12 or iron deficiency. 17 years of being sick this month ... This article explains how a person can have nuerological celiac and little or no damage to the villi ... So, I would have been absorbing B12 and iron. I know getting...

    All this sushi talk has me wanting it ... Can you tell me how to make it ? Where do you get your fish so that you know it is ok to eat raw ? Can you use frozen wild salmon ? Tuna from a can ? Where do you buy the seaweed ? I have seen seaweed at my health food store, but it is dry ... hmmm, is that what it is supposed to look like ? Does sushi...

    Here are the responses I got from Kobe steak house. I wasn't happy with the first one so I contacted them again .. And I'm not happy with either... what do you think ? I've only had sushi a couple of times from Publix (prior to gluten-free, sf, ef, df, cf), so I don't know what to look for. Marcia, I was unable to find out if our rice is gluten...

    My family is making fun of me for completely deglutening my house. But, I just got rid of all my plastic containers, measuring spoons, cups, sugar container, pots and pans ... The "sad" part is that I gave them to my daughter forgetting that she is probably a celiac ... Marcia

    Use quinoa, buckwheat, millet or rice to give you flexibility with your sauces, like chili or spagetti sauce. Or stir fry which freezes well too. I add fresh green onion, black olive, roasted red peppers, yogurt, etc. to these for variety too. Cook and freeze your grains in the individual small containers by Glad or rubbermaid. Marcia

    WOW .. I feel for you. This is going to be hard... I went through something similar. My mother and my daughter's father were diagnosed in 2001 and told they had only 6 months to live within a week of each other. My heart sank ... He is still alive, but my mother died. But, that is a whole other story ....... All I can say is that they need...

    There is no way to avoid letting your server know that you are high maintenance, but I found it goes much smoother if I am polite and explain my dietary needs in simple terms. The people you eat with will look annoyed at first, but stand your ground. My family ending up helping me after they got the hang of it. I always ask the waitress/waiter...

    I just called my niece and she told me it was Kobe steakhouse. They have a website so I just emailed them to see if their rice has gluten ... I'll be sure to get back to you ... I didn't realize it was a chain ... marcia
  12. marciab
    This was not a chain restaurant as far as I could tell. I can ask my neice the name of it, but all small non chain restaurants are going to make things differently. Actually, if you think about it, any chain restaurant manager can change their recipes at any time too. Best to ask always ...... marcia

    I'm back ... about the chicken broth in the sushi rice, the manager checked with the chef and he said it had gluten it .. I would imagine they cook all the rice at one time in one big pot ... It was a very expensive Japanese restaurant over in Tampa, Fl. The kind where they cook in front of you while throwing knives, food, etc. I was visiting so I...

    By the end of the first day, I was no longer hyper. My mind was stopped racing and I could actually listen to conversations ... It took at least 4 months for my digestive tract to stop hurting ... Marcia

    I went to a Japanese restaurant recently and asked the manager if the rice was gluten free ... Lucky for me, one of the people who worked in the kitchen was a celiac and was able to tell me that all of their rice has chicken broth in it that was NOT gluten free. They were so accommodating ... My meal was prepared in the back away from all gluten ....

    I have a Mr Coffee coffee bean grinder that I use all the time for grinding flax seeds and nuts. I like it better than the food processor for nuts, because it does a better job and you don't have to grind as many at one time. marcia

    My distaste for a psychiatrist telling a patient that he/she will more than likely be depressed, etc. is that in many cases this becomes a self fullfilling prophecy. I've seen far too much of this out of the private psychiatric community. Afterall, this is income for them, so you need to be wary. I've only met two counselors in my life that helped...

    Mtndog, Love the name ... I hate it when doctors relay this kind of statistics to people. I had some episodes of clinical depression starting when I was 19. All and all, I've had more than 3 in my lifetime, but I am no longer depressed ... And have not been since nuerontin caused it back in 1998. That was when I realized that drugs could cause...

    "Miso and sauerkraut also contain probiotics ... I found some chick pea miso at my health food store that is gluten-free, DF,CF, SF and it tastes great. Google fermented foods to find other natural probiotics. " I had to come back here and let you know that I am having a major candida outbreak and I believe it is from the miso, etc. I'm confused because...

    Nancy, I've been using those oven bags lately to roast whole chickens. They make clean up so easy. I season the chicken with Salt, pepper, onion salt, garlic powder and paprika. Cook it on 350 degrees for at least 20 minutes per pound. Let it cool a little, then slip the whole thing, bag and all, into a large plastic container. Then ditch the...

    I was completely surprised last week when I realized that gluten could make me feel so depressed. I haven't felt that way in years ... It simply came on out of the blue ... and is now gone again just as quickly as it came on ... I was a completely different person. My symptoms from being glutenned have changed from seizures, ataxia, "C", "D", cramping...

    Thanks for posting this .. I've been looking for ice cream too and this one is also corn free .. I googled agave and found : Certified organic Sweet Cactus Farms (SCF) Premium Agave Nectar is an exciting new sweetener naturally extracted from the pineapple-shaped core of the Agave, a cactus-like plant native to Mexico There are appr 600 + calories...

    Blame it on the gluten ... It can do so many things to us, why not ?? I'm beating myself up right now over the same thing. It is just so hard to find replacements for everything ... And who really wants to believe that cross contamination can do as much harm as the real thing. I'll stop beating myself up if you will ... marcia
  25. marciab
    I have a post going about how I have had "D" for 9 months, but I would be willing to bet that I am just super sensitive to cross contamination. I keep eating crackers and chips that are the possible culprits. And before that I was on the road and eating out for 2 months ... I don't know where my brain is sometimes. Perhaps your mother is super...
