  1. Since my updated diagnosis, I have pretty much stopped all fruit, lowered my starchy veggie intake, and moved to a ketogenic diet. I am going in and out of it, finding getting a glucose monitor and checking my sugars helps a bit with understanding my moods a bit more and what to eat for snacks. The ketosis thing is causing some odd issues, constipation...
  2. That is the brand I use, screw all the other stuff he says. The fact is the pure pumpkin powder protein is really high in zinc, magnesium, and several key amino acids, fats, and various other nutrients. But it on amazon btw. the double or the 5lb are the best deals. It is one of the few proteins that help me to put on weight. Also a few tsp before bed makes...
  3. Bar wise Julian bakery has some gluten-free and Dairy free low carb protein bars, really hit and miss some are terrible. But no gut issue from them. As for protein I use a few on rotation, Post workout and meals I use Nutrakey V-Pro, MRM Veggie Elite, Oragain Vegan, Jarrow Optimal in combination with Jarrow Rice, Jarrow Hemp, Pumpkin Seed Protein, Sancha...
  4. I found it rebounds with the weakness if your get exposed again and hangs around for a few weeks slowly tapering off. The initial phase out took months before I had energy back. I only ever had the full body collapse a few times with very heavy gluten exposure. As for further neurological and nerve issues, I still have issues with feeling in hands and feet...
  5. Growing up my celiacs was mostly just the minor symptoms, nothing major. After a huge drinking binge the symptoms got much much worse, and completely intolerable. I knew nothing at the time that I even had the disease, and even spent years thinking I was dying before getting diagnosed. Also messed up a whole lot of other things during that.
  6. Been updated on my bleeding and bloody stools as ulcerative colitis and IBS, So I started looking at eating a anti inflammatory diet to realize....I already am (link provided at bottom). This disease is treated the mostly with diet, looks like already on it also with my gluten free, and diary free issues. But it does have a new one, no fructose. Well I have...
  7. I developed a corn allergy, here is a ironic part. The allergy medicines I was on contained corn starch or corn syrup.....Yeah also watch out for modified food starch unless it says it is either tapioca or potato, Also watch out for baking powder (All but Heinz brain contain corn starch), anything with a syrup form, maltodexrin unless stated as tapioca,...
  8. It's been brewed from wheat, non distilled, and contains gluten some hydrolyzed some not. As a celiac with a autoimmune disease that attacks your gut, organs, etc. for weeks/months after exposure. WHY WOULD YOU EVEN RISK THAT! There are plenty of other alcohols out there and even beers made from other grains not just wheat. What is the obsession with...
  9. There are many articles on beers and even "Gluten Removed" beers not being safe for celiacs and still containing over the 20ppm amount. I would say your celiac friend might be a silent celiac, of those those who has symptoms less pronounced and almost unnoticeable. The immune system I bet is still tearing up his insides when he drinks those, he should have...
  10. Actually from Ennis TX small town on 45 south of Dallas
  11. Imagine they changed out to a apple cider or coconut vinegar instead of a grain based one. Bit odd they claim 0, but if they do it in writing like that they must be pretty darn sure. Do they sell this stuff by the bottle?
  12. Most major chain grocery stores also have a gluten free product list that is available, you can look up this way to get a idea, if in doubt of anything you can always call the company or email them and ask. I have used Ore-ida hash browns when cooking breakfast for others all the time. I normally make my own fries in the oven with sweet potatoes my own seasoning...
  13. I do better not eating carbs, just nuts, seeds, veggies, egg whites, (Can't do meats as they do not break down). Sugars seem to cause bloating grains bloating in fatigue Do sometimes treat myself to a few bean chips, or tiny bit of gluten-free rice or oats. Just check my profile for list of issues. Anyway my dietician told me to rotate my foods especially...
  14. >.> this is odd coming from a male but I use EO hair care since they have a nice keratin infused shampoo that works great with blow drying and straightening hair with a iron. I also use Acure skin care products often like the facial wipes, and scrubs. I am currently using The sea weed company bath wash, and been using Hugo Naturals hand soap for awhile...
  15. I feel on this quite alot, I live the bubble life, up and down days, very limited. Been like this for years, I still have hope, I am trying to run my own gluten free allergen friendly baking, and snack business. Bit of a issue getting money with my health, situation but I started a fundraiser that is slow, and hoping I run into a philanthropist to jump start...
  16. 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...
  17. I found a anti stress supplement (Liquid Health Stress & Energy) that I take in partial doses through out the day along with magnesium supplements (Calm Vitality, and Doctors Best), seems to help. I also walk a lot, I find pacing or calling a friend and talking out my issues to help. The whole gluten thing drove me nuts and the brain damaged that resulted...
  18. Well this has me a bit concerned, I know I have had celiac for years, But as of late I started having really bad issues in my large intestine, mostly extremely blood stool, bunch of yellow mucus, night sweats, and sometimes just dropping clotted blood when I feel the need to go to the restroom. I have scopes in under 2 weeks scheduled, doctors said it could...
  19. I have for a long time considered expanding my gluten-free bakery from a cottage home bakery to one where I can sell my snacks, baked goods, and almond butter at other venues and start shipping orders. Pretty much everything is in place aside from having a separate cooking area from my huge home kitchen to make the stuff in. And Finally I worked it out, comes...
  20. I had two of my most recent recipes featured in the newest GERBs Allergen Friendly Foods News Letter my Parmesan Substitute and my Sweet Hemp Pesto
  21. As a adult I have started re watching all the Star Trek Episodes, Most from the Original, TNG, DS9 episodes all cover interesting issues and different takes on issues with humanity from a different point of view and perspective. I have found this to be very intriguing to say the least. Anyway I finally got around to re watching the original and am on the...
  22. ...I developed my own crust from 2 other recipes using cauliflower, almond meal, and almond cheese as a base. The consistency is like that of a artisan pizza shop, the dough very gooy and dough like due to the cheese in it. You have ti eat it with a fork but I found it very indulging to make on occasion. Pizza Crust /Pizza Recipe 1 medium head cauliflower...
  23. So I tried to eat some carbs again and started with a half cup of black beans. Well seems after eating just fats, protein and very small amounts of carbs from vegetables my body does not know what to do with carbs. I lost 3lbs of weight from waking up on a empty stomach and eating them with my 8 egg omelette, then eating a chopped salad with eggs, hemp seeds...
  24. I recall back when I was in denial of having celiacs years ago. I was at my grandmas and she had a old container of flour. I tried a bit of it on a whim, had a earthly flavor tad deep and off and I assumed it was old flour from god knows when. But I did not have a reaction to it, this made me think perhaps it was not gluten but the other crap they put in...
