  1. Funny topic, it was suggested I use a nicotine patch or e-cig to get doses of nicotine to reduce inflammation. There also was a thread awhile back about smoking helping some people with symptoms.
  2. Sorta, they are hit and miss still with random lots of product STILL making people sick. Been watching that crap throw over a year, it's how they get and sort the oats, FDA is literally sitting on there butts watching this, they won't even act on when a product is confirmed CCed with gluten and labled gluten free. GFWD community is currently fighting that...
  3. Honestly this is not a issues for bakeries at all. I run a gluten free bakery and have transitioned to mostly grain free baked goods in stock only. And we do rice and oat based by request. The sales on grain free baked goods is actually pretty low, The cost to make such baked goods is truly atrocious, this means most of use that do it this way have to have...
  4. I think the picnic idea would be wonderful, outdoorsy day. Pack up some deli meats or cooked meats, fruit, nuts/nut butter, or go trailsy and pack some bowls of homemade chili, or stew along with some gluten-free bread. I have found meal prep kits online recently on sale and take them when I head out for the day and pack themed meals for the trip, adds a...
  5. Mouth ulcers? Hmm what kind, I get blood blisters in my mouth from corn and a few others things I am highly allergic to. I have heard of some people reacting to citric acids and certain other foods that might cause these. Other thoughts could be a type of defency. If you have really bad bleeding ulcers in the stomach or small intestine they will cause black...
  6. Yeah the other intolerance issues that crop up can be a huge pain. LOL my issue is putting on weight, I am back to gaining weight and working out to bulk. I find it funny I can eat a 4 cups of my homemade sugar and dairy free protein icecream, a 6 egg omelette, a salad, and snack on nuts and almond butter and still gain hardly any weight. Heck breakfast is...
  7. Again a full spectrum B-vitamins and magnesium, they all work together. Unsure about just the tops but I have a a numbness in my feet and hands from gluten ataxia. It caused nerve damage which is really slow to heal. >.< I hit something this last week with my right foot and peeled off the nail on the second to the outside toe (Ring Toe?) and do not...
  8. If your goal is gluten enzymes then know NOO amount of enzymes will help with gluten exposure completely. They might lessen symptoms but your antibodies will spike and your body will do damage to itself.. Admin gets commission for selling this stuff I swear. As for digestive enzymes I use a super papaya blend and also take extra bromelain but that is...
  9. Open Original Shared Link
  10. Potato starch works so much better then corn or flour for making gravy. I do it when I cook for my church at thanksgiving sometimes. You can also make a thinner gravy by mashing fresh diced tomatoes in the drippings and some cooking sherry simmering it with herbs and trimmings it naturally thickens it up a bit as you crush it all together with a masher in...
  11. Oats are a common issue with celiacs even gluten free ones. About 10% if I recall of celiacs respond to them just like gluten. Corn bothers some of us, I developed a severe allergy to it a few years ago. Tomatoes, and peppers are acidic, and and you can develop issues to them from multiple reasons. It could be a night shade intolerance, it could be a histamine...
  12. I hear you on these, I can no have sugar, fruit, or carbs due to my UC. Been using sugar subs and avoiding flare ups. I think your doctor just wants you to avoid high glycemic sugars right now and stuff that your gut bacteria might go a bit crazy on fermenting and making you bloat. Try lower glycemic sweeteners like coconut sugar (deep nutty flavor compliments...
  13. Good article addressing sugar and constant snacking as the huge health culprit in America not gluten/wheat. But please address the name of this thread, it is in fact a put down just reading the title, >.> makes me feel like it is my fault I got a genetic disease. Few things I noticed in the article it was talking about wheat preventing dementia...
  14. Not had sunflower seeds in the last year since they started giving me issues over a year ago. I tried them again this morning, I made a cheese sauce with them blending them with water, nutritional yeast, hint of garlic and onion powered, apple cider vinegar. then used my standard thickening regime for cheese sauces of konjac and psyllium husk. IT TASTED wonderful...
  15. I been lactose intolerant for 10+ years and gluten free for over 3 years and just this year went completely grain free aside from vegan protein powders. Corn has been a major allergy issue for years. Dairy is just evil to me due to lactose issues and a whey allergy. I been making my own cheese sauces, and nut milk based icecream for years, and treat myself...
  16. This honestly makes me want to be a chef on a cruise line in charge of the allergen section...separate back kitchen for allergens? Wonder if I could get a job.....lol I can dream. I think I will stick to getting my own grain free food truck. If I ever get the money to start the dang thing, dream right there being able to cook safe food for others with limited...
  17. Depends on how and where it is processed. What candies are you talking about, I might be able to track down some alternatives. I have a knack for finding gluten free food and alternatives.
  18. It is the scratches in them that harbor gluten, if you want you can try to scrub them out some people have success, if you can put it in the oven on self clean over 500F that will do it. (Gluten is a protein like blood, you have to destroy the protein, it is not a germ or bacteria to be disinfected off). I have a VERY CHEAP flat bread recipe I posted in...
  19. If there was blood in his stool they might want a endoscope and a colonoscopy, red blood in the stool means there is something in the large intestine. Dark tar like stool would suggest smaller intestines or something further up. I had blood in my stool for years never could figure it out til we learned it was Ulcerative Colitis. Of course his could be something...
  20. This thread is over 3 years old I doubt the original poster even comes here anymore. Please check dates on threads.
  21. Sick at work, Ok what brand were the chips first off, second this happened at work? Did you wash your hands before getting the chips? If you touched a surface at work where say someone smeared something with gluten, or someone else reached into the bag of chips after handling a sandwich, or something like that you probably just got CCed. As to the M&Ms...
  22. Might, I have lactose intolerance and a whey allergy on top of celiac disease. I had this issues way before my celiac dia. BTW I have the nerve issues also 3 years later I still have damage to feeling of touch in my hands and feet . At least I do not have the pains, or full random motor loss anymore lol, the brain fog to the point of berserk confusion was...
  23. Any crumb or residue is going to cause your antibodies to flare up, as I mentioned earlier cheap quick fixes are using paper and disposable utensils and plate ware, your own condiments are cheap just to get a second set mark them with a red band or tape around the neck so you and others know. Same with cooking tools just get another and put a band on it or...
  24. CC at olive garden........yeah gluten hell sums that up really nice, Just bring your own food and drink.....do not even trust the utensils, plates, or glasses lol. I bring my own food when I have to eat out with others and play it safe. They have stuff safe for people that are "Gluten Sensitive" but if your celiac or react to CC do not even attempt it there...
  25. Well I got a type of icecream machine, it is a rolled ice maker. I am looking at marketing it at the local farmers market starting next week. My base is dairy free, blend of almond milk, coconut full fat canned milk, maple syrup, and LorAnn Icecream flavors. Toppings and filling to chop into it include Enjoy Life Cookies, My own baked goods, Lets go Gluten...
