  1. Also give away any cast iron pots/pans, going to have to start with new ones and reseason. I personally got all new appliances, silverware, cooking utensils, and pots/pans when I had the change over. Sorta gave a new take and allowed me to clean up everything and reorganize with just what I needed. I also developed this habit of laying freezer/butcher paper...
  2. This is really dependent from person to person. The reason why it is suggested to a lot of people to only eat unprocessed foods is they are easier on digestion, less chance of messing with your stomach, and a lot of us do not discover it til we have developed other issues, and intestinal damage. Do to these other reasons starting with a basic diet of whole...
  3. Savory, never used it, how well does it thicken? Might be suitable for gravies, soups and sauces as a thickening agent. I use coconut flour and oat flour like that also. I can think it would go great in my old broccoli and mushroom casserole or for use making a sauced topping of sauteed veggies, for toppings in dishes with thin sliced sauteed onions, bit...
  4. Looks good for gluten free, even has certifications. My issue is they all come from a peanut facility. While on this topic anyone know where I can get reasonably priced, cashews, pistachios, macadamia nuts etc. that are Gluten, peanut, soy, and dairy free? I always find ones made in the same facility as or over $9 a lb. Pretty much why I have been sticking...
  5. After 7 doctors I got the diagnosis, with others mixed in . But going gluten free completely has helped a lot, along with finding out my allergies, and what foods I was intolerant to. No more constant puking and gut pain, and best of all the I had major mind fog issues that were driving me insane where my own mind would turn against me and I could not do...
  6. All I can do is say I will pray for you, there is so much it could be from all the things your are listing I do not know even where to begin. Sounds like the hell I went through 3-4 years ago where I thought I was literally dying and running a bucket list on my good days. It really helps to come out like you did (I vented about my mental breakdowns here it...
  7. Everyone is different you can check my profile for my list of allergies and intolerance I ended up with . Try cutting all processed foods, oats, and dairy. Try a whole food diet of veggies, meats you cook yourself from raw unseasoned selection (might omit meats), eggs nuts and seeds. Try removing different foods for a week at a time on rotation. A food elimination...
  8. Yep Dickies makes extra thick socks for steel toe boots that I love, really helps keep your feet from getting blisters etc. I tend to wear steel toe boots a lot and change out the insole once every 8-12 months. I also wear running shoes and change them out every year. As to the gloves, yep with allergies and celiac, I like wearing gloves when out and about...
  9. I normally do use a pot holder or oven mitt but sometimes I get in a rush hear the timer and just reach in, I have gotten good at stopping myself after initially grabbing it. As for the super glue, I only use it on palm,hand injuries while cooking (these normally involve a knife and do not close or stop bleeding quickly otherwise) , This way I can seal it...
  10. There is a bit of a bright side to everything, the lack of feeling in my hands and feet to surface temperatures and pain means I can burn, cut, or bruise myself and as long as it is not deep tissue I can go about my normal business and rationally deal with it. Cut my hand, just superglue the cut closed glove up and go about my day. Burn myself, most of the...
  11. Yeah I was adopted and to this day we can not get my birth mother to release medical records, we found out when I was in my 20s and thought I was literally dying, even running a bucket list. Went from over 200lbs to under 130lbs in a 6 months at 5' 11", I have posted my diet and talked about it pretty much eat like a body builder, whole bunch of fats and...
  12. Ouch, unsure if blessed or not, I can react to residue from touching a surface that had gluten then my food. Hyper sensitive, my issues is I sometimes do not know what caused the reactions, and depending on the form and how it was processed determines if I get the initial lymph response in 30 sec or have to wait til the gut responds in 30mins. Top it off...
  13. Yeah the constipation threw my doctors off at first too, used to spend 5-10days then have to drink 2-4times the dose of a laxative to have a normal bowl. On the bright side after years of gluten-free gluten has the opposite effect at first then the constipation which clears in a day. Now days I still maintain a 50-80g of fiber (nut, seeds, veggies) a day...
  14. Yep like cheerios Quaker uses the mechanical separation, same issues. Try gluten-free Harvest if you must have oatmeal, otherwise a quinoa or rice meal porridge is suggested.
  15. I used to make crock pot overnight rice porridge where you cook it 6-8hours on low over night in a 1:4 ratio of a milk sub and rice with dates,prunes, raisins, apples or what ever fruit in it next morning you stir and the fruit melted into it..........I miss that, body no longer handles carbs myself, still make it for guest sometimes that spend the night...
  16. I buy and use annatto in my homemade vegan cheese sprinkles. I used to use lisanatti almond cheese that had it no issues. (Had to stop using them this year after they started using olive oil in it which I am allergic to)
  17. LorAnn Oils has Gluten Free colors, extracts, emulsions. etc. Really is a go to for gluten free baking. Gerbs allergen friendly foods for chocolate chips, and dried fruits in baking. And you will find the flours, and flour blend from Authentic Foods to be a life saver for a bakery, I like blending my own flours, I normally use a almond/coconut, or a Almond...
  18. Randomly Happening, is this like seem to happen when you move your arm or flex in a certain direction? Does it feel like a small roll of hard tissues in a bundle in that area? It could be a knotted muscle, or a stressed ligament. When you move it could be rolling and flexing in a odd way causing the popping, pain, and inflammation. I had this in my shoulder...
  19. I thought it would be a interesting topic to bring up supplements and foods we take to deal with our issues. I am going to omit exact dosages on these as I had to adjust them according to my needs, less on some, more on others and on pretty much all of them break the dosage up and take it in 2-3 parts throughout the day to avoid the slumps. Also my diet...
  20. I hate the looks, and jokes I get from others about my issues. Allergic with major reactions to corn, peanuts, and olives on top of celiacs. Those are the huge NOs as any bit of even cross contamination can make me really sick. People joke about it and laugh about it at markets, and other places. I normally just walk off and avoid them from then on. But some...
  21. I normally have a a scoop of protein powder and almond milk before bed to avoid that "hit a bus" feeling in the morning. As for hunger yeah I sometimes find myself mindlessly eating handfuls of almonds and pumpkin seeds.
  22. A person can have both IBS and Celiac, but a bit of a note, some people have continued issues for weeks with a gluten poisoning before their system returns to a more normal state. It might also be a source of cross contamination in your cooking area. Use all NEW cook ware, gloves, only whole foods and certified ingredients and spices, along with perhaps using...
  23. One of the allergies I developed and has gotten worse over the years was corn, and I get a allergic rash with a burning sensation when ever something made of corn, or contains corn contacts my skin. Celiac disease does odd things to ones body especially in the immune system department, you might have come down with a odd allergy to something in you laundry...
  24. Made me sick when I tried them back in February. But I also have other issues and am hyper sensitive.
  25. Talk with a dietician and see about building a diet around what foods work best for you, pain is finding the balance that is right for your body and comfortable. If nuts and the harder seeds bother you chia and avocado might be worth looking at. As to the butters any kind of nut or seed butter, some people have issues breaking down the whole seed/nut but...
