	  ARCHIVED Extreme Hunger....Ennis-TX replied to Rachel--24's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease It is a mix of your eating different foods, withdrawal cravings, deficiencies, and sometimes it is just caused by you eating less then you used to and needing more. I get the binge eats and end up eating a bunch of almonds, and avocados. I crave a blend of sweets, meats, and fats when I get these. I found upping my diet with a lot of fiber and eating more...

	Interesting topic that might give you some food ideas to balance stuff out and supplements, even listed my shake brands I have had good luck with (all are oat free and vegan) https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/116482-supplement-and-foods-you-take/ I mostly just stick to my safe house for most my life and have found wearing gloves outside my house...

	  ARCHIVED Celiac & neurological symptomsEnnis-TX replied to Lukas's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease I ended up with extreme brain fog, like mind would get stuck and broken record driving me crazy, and forgot how to do simple things I knew I should know but just could not think of them and would blank, also had numbness in my hands in feet, lack of ability to feel temperatures in them, and at one point I had a feeling of fire like needles running in waves...

	  ARCHIVED anxiety, celiac, problems, doctors, i'm lostEnnis-TX replied to Jm34's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease Man seems like you just keep hitting ALL HELL. Perhaps you should tell life to to screw off and not eat anything but prepackaged bottled gluten-free certified bone broth and sleep for 1-2 days. No pills, no other foods, nothing but prepackaged bone broth straight from the container. This means no contaminated cups, bowls, utensils, foods, pills, meds. Perhaps...

	  ARCHIVED gluten-free NutsEnnis-TX replied to plumbago's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted pieces, and de fatted flakes I use Let's go Organic from where ever is cheaper at the time, normally nab it on sale at my local grocers. For flour I stick to Nutivia Organic coconut flour as I normal find it on health sites for under $10 for 3lbs and tend to add it to everything for a thickening agent, cooking flour, fat...

	How did the plantains work for you. I did some experiments when making the baked version for my grandmas funeral anniversary. I learned that green unripe ones give it a more potato starchy yeild and are really hard to get to form right and require a food processor and water. Also found baking them at 375 for about 25-30mins with the yellow ripe ones (Yellow...

	Going to guess you cut out a bunch of enriched processed foods when you went gluten free. This would lower iron, zinc, etc. intakes. I might suggest a having more avocado, pumpkin seeds/pumpkin protein, almonds, coconut, and perhaps try adding in nutritional yeast to your meals. I personally use these along with vegan protein powders high in iron and magnesium...

	  ARCHIVED Still losing weightEnnis-TX replied to Fbmb's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease Yeah I find I have to to watch my fats, protein, and light carb intake like crazy. I can only eat certain carbs in small amounts, and mostly live off fats like almonds, coconut, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, avocados, flax, and chia seeds. I find making puddings with nut milks, and blended pectin or knoxx with chia seeds and a nut butter is great. I then blend...

	  ARCHIVED Gluten free vitamin or supplement shakeEnnis-TX replied to AbuBakar's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications For a shake I like MRM Meal Replacement and take a side of nuts/seeds, and veggie sticks. It is very low sugar and a good source of protein and fiber. I love mixing it with hot coffee and drinking it like a thick soup. Bit of a acquired taste and texture I will admit. Other times I make my own bars with vita fiber syrup protein powder and nut or seed butter...

	  ARCHIVED Acid Reflux - Throat Tightening - 4+ months gluten freeEnnis-TX replied to Dv1983's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease I used to throw up daily, and have constant burping up stuff all day. Going gluten free got rid of most of it. I still get random bouts of really bad acid reflux, bile triggered by random things seemly. Few foods I can eat in moderation but if I get carried away triggers this. Odd how some spices can trigger it and others not, few of them I actually...

	  ARCHIVED Please Help My Sister By Sharing Your StoryEnnis-TX replied to revenant's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease Scariest thing in the world is when your own body and mind turns against you. I recall the extreme brain fog, where my mind kept on not being able to move forward and every little thing made me angry. Stuff would not make sense, little things I knew I should be able to do just would not work out right in my minds, worst cases it would loop like a broken record...

	  ARCHIVED celiac disease + Carbs can lead to malabsorption of foods!Ennis-TX replied to JamieRmusic's topic in Related Issues & Disorders I found I bloat eating most grains, beans, and sugary fruits. Ended unchanging to a diet of mostly veggies, nuts, seeds, egg whites, and vegan protein powders, and just have 1-2 pieces of dried fruit with a meal normally banana chips, dates, figs sit best. I wil admit that chart combo is pretty good but I would think pumpkin would be in with squash if just...

	  ARCHIVED That darn corn !Ennis-TX replied to Awol cast iron stomach's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut itching and inhaler sounds more of a allergy then a intolerance, I might say try again in a year, or more. I am allergic to corn with fever, blood blisters, and rash. I am intolerant to peanuts that just cause intestinal inflammation to the point of distention and vomiting for hours (I try these again about once a year) PS corn is everywhere, baking powder...

	Digestion issues, fatigue, and muscle weakness issues normally wear off in 2-4 weeks for me. The waves of anxiety, depression, and numbness keep up for a few months afterwards.

	  ARCHIVED Not Celiac - is it ok to reduce rather than eliminate gluten?Ennis-TX replied to Pumpkin2017's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut There is such thing as silent celiacs disease, you get the gut damage, and nutrient issues, but you show no signs outwardly or minimum symptoms (Don't quote me on this). As for testing for celiac you have to be eating gluten daily for the test to be done correctly, at least a cracker or half a slice of bread a day for 12 weeks for the blood test or 2 weeks...

	  ARCHIVED CoffeeEnnis-TX replied to Amanda Brown's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Few ones I saw at whole foods, and central market down here in Texas. They have a few that use "Malted Barley" in the mulled and desert blends, (The sugar cookie and cinnamon bun sounded great) they featured over the holidays. I do not recall the brand, it was one that I had not seen before in a green box and white box, I think it was from a local company...

	  ARCHIVED Not Celiac - is it ok to reduce rather than eliminate gluten?Ennis-TX replied to Pumpkin2017's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut I have celiac on top of Asperger myself and live on a mostly vegan diet due to digestive issues. Personally I would never go back on gluten unless you paid me a whole lot of money. As for compromising there are plenty of dishes you can still cook and make for someone used to a normal diet. I do it all the time for a few friends, I found jackfruit and BBQ...

	  ARCHIVED CoffeeEnnis-TX replied to Amanda Brown's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Certain Flavored ones do have gluten in them, most should be fine if just plain coffee from a good brand. Note if you have ever run a gluten containing blend through your machine you might want to toss it. I recall messing up one of my coffee makers doing that mistake years ago. Seems no matter how much I tried I could not get the stuff out of the basket...

	  ARCHIVED Soda AlternativeEnnis-TX posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications For awhile now I have had issues with sodas, I am allergic to corn, react bad to sugary carbs, and aspartame, and acesulfame potassium really mess me up. So I started making my own soda with sparkling mineral water and SweetLeaf Sweet Drops cola, and Rootbeer Flavors and a bit of NuNaturals Stevia Simple Syrup or Monk Fruit Extract. But I recently...

	Recently found 2 more protein powders that are working amazing for getting on muscle weight. I found adding pumpkin seed protein to my meals and before bed is really helping with recovery, seems it has a good ratio of zinc, iron, and other nutrients in it. I also found rotating my main blends from Nutrakey V-Pro to MRM Veggie Elite to help, And I absolutely...

	  ARCHIVED MultivitaminsEnnis-TX replied to TracyButler's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Liquid Health makes a liquid one you can add to a drink along with a anti stress, mental support, and join support ones. Jarrow Formulas makes various supplements, protein powders, probiotics etc. all gluten free if you want a pill version.

	This is a simple squash some from my mothers recipe, I personally make it with just chicken bone broth, and it is great on a cold day. 1-2 cup chopped turkey or chicken 5 tender zucchini sliced or chopped (mexican squash also works) 1/2 cup onion chopped 1/2cup - 1 can diced tomatoes 1 garlic clove crushed 1 tsp cumin salt and pepper to taste 1. Heat...

	  ARCHIVED All fruit juice causing stomach issuesEnnis-TX replied to mcjlcr's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs I get really bad acid reflux, and bloat with carbs, juice, and sugary things. I tend to do better just eating nuts, seeds, egg whites, veggies, and small amounts of dried fruits from GERBS allergen friendly foods like figs, dates, banana chips, and the unsweetened versions of a few others. I found limiting my fruit intake to 1-2 pieces dried or 1/4 fresh...

	I would say there is a huge relations, Celiac is a auto immune disease, it is compromising the immune system, and damaging our intestines where foods we consume are processed and absorbed along with a large part of our immune systems. Allergies are a immune/histamine response from my understanding, if your immune system is overactive and on the fritz...
