    I used to have to wear noise canceling headphones to concentrate on anything. My ADHD was made worse by gluten and dairy, combined with autism and the brain fog...it was maddening. The fog, its like you try to think of something and you mind sort of slows down and gets stuck on something else. You want to think or work on something but it will not. Concentration...

    You would probably benefit from my diet base....Keto/Paleo with no Sugar, Grains, Starchy Veggies, Fruit, etc. Normally people use meat on this diet but my pancreas issues prevent this. I live on omelettes, avocados, nut butters from various nuts, seeds both meals in foods and whole pumpkin, gerbs hemp (only gluten free ones out there), flax, chia sunflower...

    Your thinking of brewers yeast. Nutritional Yeast by KAL or Braggs is certified gluten free and not grown a gluten media, or alive. It is a great staple for vegans for vitamins and minerals. Also very useful for creating vegan cheese. iodine is a great suggestion, I snack on gluten-free Nori, wakame, and other see veggies for mine, sodium again will...

    The swelling etc, is commonly referred to as edema. I used to struggle with and had drink and eat duriatic foods through out the day to maintain it while avoiding sodium. Here are some things that might help Open Original Shared Link Past few years I adopted a keto/paleo diet avoiding all grains, starches, carbs, sugars. The keto diet naturally causes...

    Yep, over 4 years in, I have gluten ataxia with it where it attacks my brain and nervous system. I had a scope last year and my intestines had mostly healed. The nerve damage not so much....that might never. I suffered brain, nerve damage from it and lost the ability to do something, numbness in hands in feet (I can pick up a sheet out the oven and smell...

    Many times it can be related to a nutrient deficiency from your damaged intestines, like B-vitamins, and a few others, I would need to check my charts. I honestly eat a ton of pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, and cocoa nibs to promote my body to produce feel good chemicals all the time. I also take liquid b-vitamin complexes to deal with it like Liquid Health Stress...

    Did a bit of a list here but we normally suggest a whole foods only diet at first with as few ingredients as you can to boost healing. Many benefit from removing dairy for a few weeks to a few months. The damage to the villi in the intestines inhibits the utilization and production of the enzymes to break it down. >.< When I first went gluten free...

    Umm no offense but this is counter productive to my post/blog ...the whole point of these is grain free, corn free, low carb, and dairy free....while I have suggested pamela products on my alternative list on another post, this blog is focused on no gluten, corn, dairy and lowering carbs, grains, and starches. Pamela product you suggested is something I would...

    Had a scare few days ago, I thought I developed a almond intolerance, ended up being I can not eat raw almonds that I just chew and eat, roasted I can make into butter or chew and they turn into a "mud" that sinks, raw tend to turn into a floating gritty irritating paste that causes purging, almond flour is fine if baked or soaked over night before being...

    You can not diagnosis celiac with saliva and hair.....celiac is a autoimmune disease, where your immune system reacts to gluten. THE ONLY way to test is 1. Check the BLOOD for ANTIBODIES to gluten where you have to be eating it til you get them in your blood stream. 2. Checking for damage to your intestines like blunted vili by taking a biopsy of the small...

    As a dietician I think she is a idiot, " so it’s not even filling. So you’re getting all those calories and it’s not even filling you up for giving you the fiber that you need " hmm well I eat gluten free, and I studied nutrition and follow the diet of our ancestors with plenty of nuts, seeds, leafy greens.....I get 70-160g of fiber a day.....I do not e...

    Well I have celiac, and ulcerative colitis, and learned a while back that my pancreas was not producing enough enzymes. Mine progressively gets worse into the evenings and I have to take porcine enzymes. Recently have been taking betaine HCL for raising stomach acid as my PH in the evenings is often 3-5 and they said should be much lower on the PH scale....

    First...if celiac is the suspected culprit you need to be eating gluten and get tested first please refer to the following before proceeding with your current diet. Open Original Shared Link Second yes, diets for finding food allergies generally involve removing all but 3-6 foods and eating only those and removing 1 and moving in another for a week at...

    Yeah I can not handle the harsness of something as heavy as chili...vegan even. I might have a spoon of it when I fix it for others but nothing more. Eggs, and veggies, scrambles, stir fries, tiny bit of seasoning on one part of it....been my go to...last month has been mostly blending steamed veggies, coconut flour, and seed meals, into egg then cooking...

    If celiac, before hand you were damaging your villi and not absorbing food, once you start healing you start absorbing more of it. Try to stay away from "gluten free" processed foods...MOST are really unhealthing starch/sugar/fat bombs in really bad ratios with sugar/fats. and fiber/starches. Try a whole foods only diet of veggies, meats, and rice and potetoes...

    Waffles are often not that crumby or sticky, bread on the other hand can stick the mesh and leave crumbs more. Toasters are cheap if you want to play it safe, or use toaster bags for awhile, 500F can destroy gluten...unsure how hot those get. It is easier the manage the diet the first few months and makes healing faster to use whole foods only and nothing...

    I cook asian style stuff using coconut secret sauces like the teriyaki, garlic, and coconut aminos. I found Thai Kitchen Makes some curry paste...not japanese style but it works. I found some nice togarashi seasoning from The Spice house, and some sesame oil from various places that is gluten free, I use Nori from amazon in bulk that is fine, I also found...

    This is a backward disease to dia, you have to keep eating to to show the damage....the more damage to be seen the more "oh this is bad"....the whole challenge in my opinion is to make it look as bad as can be for a positive dia....yeah stupid I know. Open Original Shared Link Depends on how you want to explain it....I have youtube videos to explain the...

    Constant set backs with the broccoli dish led to a epic new dish. Sold out of mushroom broth, my onion was bad so improvised 2cups vegetable broth, 1tbsp onion powder, 1 tbsp coconut amino, 2tbsp butter flavored coconut oil, 2tsp liquid smoke cooked the riced broccoli in it put over miracle rice and topped with cheddar. ....could have used diced ham or bacon...

    After today I feel the need to share this story, as many know I suffered trying to live life with my family after diagnosis, they tried a bit but overall they would not give up gluten and were....ignorantly hazardous with food and making me sick. I was at the time...suffering from the mental effects of gluten with loopy thoughts, anxiety, going completely...

    TESTED it my bake mixes and my coconut flour all came back gluten free, to be extra sure, I left the test alone and checked it 2 hours later after the first time and it still read the same (sometimes even the tiniest traces are present the line will appear hours later indicating something might be below 20ppm but still have some in it) Double sure even the...

    Yeah if your gluten free the blood test will be negative...it is testing for antibodies to the gluten proteins....if you not eating gluten your not going to have them in you blood. There is a gluten challenge that needs to be done where you eat gluten every day for like 12 weeks to raise the antibodies for the test. The endoscope like wise requires gluten...

    Not really they have no binders in them, they crumb really easy, this would not work for a biscuit. As a scone this works great, not so much in something that is supposed to be more tough. I made some tough textured dinner rolls grain free that reminds me of those cheap ones in the square packages, deduce that binder in half for a softer biscuit like texture...

    I have done gluten free bakery sales with organic and gluten free baked goods some even vegan....you should see the looks and hear the stuff people tell me at teh farmers markets....BEST ONE YET, like 400+ pound guy... "Organic makes my stomach hurt" then he waddles off and turns sideways to shuffle into a door of a local business......like organic just means...

    OH SHITE, that flour triggered your DH?! I use it all the time......I been thinking my UC has been flaring as my numbness is not present, the fog is not present, and the anxiety/looping thoughts are not present, but I have D every other day for the past 2 months. Will Nima test it in the morning....I sure as hell hope not I just turned out my baking mixes...
