ARCHIVED I'm still here! Xantham Gum
Ennis-TX replied to ksymonds84's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
ON the contrary....it makes great stools lol. 1 tsp of pure psyllium husk makes 1 cup of stool mass.......I use 1tbsp to 12 standard rolls or double it for super chewy ones. I normally only eat 1 and it makes 12. If you have loose stool issues psyllium will firm them up nicely .....I turned up my intake after my last glutening to stop the cow pies. PS forgive... -
ARCHIVED I'm still here! Xantham Gum
Ennis-TX replied to ksymonds84's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My bakery uses guar gum in something but we changed to grain free mostly and using psylium husk in many of our new recipes, it gives a amazing chewy texture to breads etc. I got some simple keto roll recipes in my blog here you can try it out in. >.< I can only tolerate xantham gum in the tiniest amounts in a few supplements. Seems when I tried it in... -
ARCHIVED Homemade Yogurt Resolves Irritable Bowel Symptoms in Most Patients
Ennis-TX replied to Scott Adams's topic in Publications & Publicity
I use coconut/almond/cashewmilk. and use 2 capsules of Nature Way Fortify 50Billion in a mason jar...warm the milk up dump and blend in the capsule contents sometimes adding an a scoop of protein powder ( I found one with inulin in it that the little buggers love) and letting it sit for 24-48 hours....the whole oven thing seems like overkill, mine thickens... -
ARCHIVED Develop Celiac Disease At 35
Ennis-TX replied to uruboy02's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Your posting on a thread with a previous response from 2011, try starting a new thread. On your issues you mention no deficiency but I most attest that the pins and needles correlates to B-vitamins or magnesium both of which effect nerve response and can trigger this symptoms. It might not even show up as a deficiency on test but you will find supplementing... -
Due to the amount you eat I do not see this as a gluten issue but a starch carb issue. If you suspect gluten is a issue try the celaic blood test, your eating enough for the test and the simple blood test by any doctor will rule it out. MY thoughts are that your bloat and other issues are caused by the bacteria in your gut going a bit crazy with the heavy...

LOL yeah miralax was a joke for me WHOLE BOTTLE NOTHING, doctors thought I was lying. I found the ONLY thing that works for me is Magnesium Citrate, the bottled fizzy stuff for colon preps. Daily maintenance requires me to take Natural Vitality Calm daily, you dose to tolerance start off at 1/4 tsp 1-2 times a day and up it to the full dose over a week. If...

ARCHIVED Could this be possible gluten allergy?
Ennis-TX replied to Boliviab's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I would say no even then....it belongs in its own little corner in hell. We have had members get sick from cross contact touching and handling paper mache, playdough, and dry wall spackle containing wheat then touching their mouths, or food.....heck you can inhale the powder from the sanding spackle and have it get trapped in the mucus in you respiratory... -
ARCHIVED Help with Not Feeling Crazy
Ennis-TX replied to pemlhs1201's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Cross reactivity is a bit of a myth type thing, but we do get food sensitivities and intolerance issues that do creep up and they are always different for each person. A food diary and keeping track of what causes symptoms is what you need to do. Here is a true gluten avoidance list and a article on food sensitivities. /celiac-disease/forbidden-gluten-food... -
ARCHIVED Crispy oat flour cookies?
Ennis-TX replied to walterbyrd's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
....oh wow this is almost identical to our recipe base in my bakery...we use Lakanto syrup for our sugar free bit runnier then most and keeps them better, adding a bit of arrow root, starch and adjusting the liquid will make them crispier. We actually discontenuied our cookies due to pricing being as "retarded" as it was according to customers....but almond... -
ARCHIVED Could this be possible gluten allergy?
Ennis-TX replied to Boliviab's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Celiac disease can be dormant for years til a strain/stress to the immune system makes it come out. Many of us have had this issues, your infection run in might have triggered the dormant genes for the disease if you had them. I would follow up with the testing, see about getting a full celiac blood panel if you can, you have to be eating gluten for 12 weeks... -

ARCHIVED needing shared gluten/gluten-free kitchen help!
Ennis-TX replied to Maddiecl's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Gluten is a protein smaller then blood,bleach does not kill it as it is not a germ. I would replace scratched pans. baking dishes, tubaware, wooden utensils, colanders, etc. Throw out crumby condiment jars and any non gluten-free spices and condiments. Cast Iron can be saved and some metal utensils by putting in your oven self clean cycle, 500F will destroy... -
IF your still getting cramps look into supplementing with Magnesium, either Natural Vitality Calm or Doctors best in the glycinate powder. Depending on other symptoms and the way your body works depends on which form is best. Calm is best if you have hard stools, do not go daily with a BM you start it off small 1/4tsp and work it up to the full dose over...

This could be related to nutrient deficiencies such as multip B-vitamins, magnesium, primarily with some others to consider like vitamin D E and iron. But my concern with be diabetes also, it is a fact that diabetes and celiac go hand in hand often. AND if you eat gluten free processed food often you are eating a ton more starch, carbs, and sugars then you...

Concern about lymph nodes
Ennis-TX replied to Kate Duong's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Celiac disease is a bit like a chameleon in symptoms with over 500 known combinations (someone else said this number). It being a autoimmune disease it would not be unheard of it effecting the lymph nodes and in fact early on my first signs of a CC was tightening and swelling of the ones in my neck. I have not noticed this with my past few encounters in the... -

Ennis-TX replied to Moongirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
....post is 12 years old, please check the dates, On a side note to this topic, I had no gluten issues with tide but it caused itching for other reasons I went with Rockin Green and Mollys Suds for a natural detergent years ago. You get like 70-90loads from a bag try, Amazon, Luckyvitamin, or Thrive for them. -

Ennis-TX replied to Niza's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am actually trying to bulk up and body build with this disease. I go with a keto diet of fats and protein, I use vegan protein powders throughout the day.

Ennis-TX replied to DebLee Salzman's topic in Super Sensitive People
LOL sorry but really? You trust that, dominos, papa johns, and pizza hut ALL say they can not 100% guarantee their gluten-free pizza are celiac safe. THEY USE the same prep areas, same ingredient bins, same ovens and in many cases the same cutters and spoons used to spread the sauces and cut the pizza. I doubt the employees would even bother changing gloves... -

Ennis-TX replied to Lex-'s topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
In many cases no.....I consume heavy magnesium foods like pumpkin seeds, cocoa nibs etc....and still need 2-3x the dose of magnesium recommendations. Going on more of what poster boy said. You dose magnesium to tolerance with citrate like Natural Vitality Calm you start off small partial doses and slow ramp up....it can hit you hard causing gas and D if you...
