    Aldi is owned by the same company as Trader Joe's, so often Aldi's products are exactly the same as Trader Joe's but in different packaging and at a lower price. I shop both stores for all of my groceries and can pick out the same products now pretty easily. I'm not going to pay $4.99 for a package of three bell peppers at TJs when the exact same package...

    I have bought TJ's gluten-free oats for a long time, but discovered through process of elimination they were causing me some big issues, so I'm currently not using them. I don't know if it's just their oats or any gluten-free oats, but I'm taking a break from oats until I've healed more. So I would say, eat at your own risk.

    You could have subclinical hypothyroidism, which sounds fake, but it's not. It's when your thyroid levels show up normal on tests, but you still have all the symptoms. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link I think the diagnosis of Hashimoto's has to do with the antibodies.

    I would recommend trying the low FODMAPs diet, which works for many people with IBS. Here's a chart that gives some idea of what it is, but you can Google it for more info: Open Original Shared Link And I will add that I did have the IgG testing last year and it helped to identify many foods to which I have sensitivities. Once I cut them out, I saw...

    Thank you for sharing this! Their gluten-free flour prices are really reasonable.

    I think the benefit to getting tested is a diagnosis for which you can receive treatment. As you probably know, celiac is much more than just digestive issues or rashes -- it's an autoimmune disease that can have effects throughout the whole body. For some people, simply not eating gluten or whatever else causes issues fixes the issue and they can go on with...

    If you have issues with fructose, you might want to take a look at this list: Open Original Shared Link and do some research on the FODMAPs diet. Essentially, it's different kinds of carbohydrates, proteins and fats that some people have problems tolerating. Dried fruit is on the list, as are grains such as wheat and rye, which contain gluten. Here's another...

    Yes! And I've discovered it the hard way. Last week I made my husband some oatmeal cookies with xantham gum (he is not gluten-free but I only bake and cook gluten-free), and I ate one. I was sick for 2 days! It was suggested that I try guar gum to see if it's any better.

    I use Deva Vegan products: http://www.devanutrition.com/multivitamin.html. It doesn't specifically say it doesn't have corn, but I don't see that it does, but you'd probably have to call them. You can also check Country Life brand (http://www.country-life.com/)

    If you want to order some frozen from a great gluten-free restaurant, try this: Open Original Shared Link. I ate there last weekend while in the area and it was the best gluten-free pizza I've ever had. Otherwise, if you cook, here are some links to recipes: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open...

    Healthsohard: I'm sorry you are struggling to find answers. It seems that we all have to go through many hoops before we can find some. I am very thankful to have finally found a physician (functional medicine) who listened to me, didn't think I was crazy and knew what to look for. She diagnosed me with celiac, leaky gut and subclinical hypothyroid (this...

    If anyone is ever in the Baltimore area, go to One Dish Cuisine in Ellicott City. They cater exclusively to people with celiac and food allergies. It was the first time I've been able to eat a gluten-free, dairy-free pizza somewhere other than my own home, and it was delicious! Open Original Shared Link

    Yes, this is one of my primary symptoms, even being 10 months gluten-free, and what made me go to my now-former primary care doc three years in a row (he told me three times "you are doing too much."). Some days I can barely hold my eyes open at work, so I have to get up and walk outside. For me, it's got to be another food sensitivity/allergy/intolerance...

    I'm not sure if you're looking for a bread-like American biscuit, but here's a recipe: Open Original Shared Link If you're looking for a cookie, try ohsheglows.com or forkandbeans.com.
