  1. hey guys thanks everyone for the replies. i used xanthum in a biscuit recipe that also used tapioca, palm oil shortening, and arrowroot. the result was itchy skin and a bit of wheezing, but then again that always could've been triggered by something else. i am in the process of testing each ingredient on its own. the recipe came from a book called...
  2. hey gang, doing my elimination diet, and trying to figure out whether xanthan/xanthum gum is ok for celiacs out there. i used it in a biscuit recipe and didn't feel too well afterwards. the xanthum was bought from bob's so it is gluten-free. anyone that has celiac disease and food allergies have problems with this ingredient? is guar gum better...

  6. you should drink NONE of those energy drinks if you have celiac disease (even if you don't). i used to work for the globe's most popular energy drink for years until i got sick. docs are pretty convinced that my continual consumption of that product greatly contributed to my condition. if you need the rush, drink green tea, or coffee, if that is your...
  7. i am too young and was very active and healthy before i came down with a sudden prostate infection. was in severe pain for 6 months. finally, after 12 (!) doctors, i have found a clinical ecologist/immunologist who took me off gluten about 1.5 months ago. things have definitley improved since then (other typical celiac disease symptoms), but there...

    ARCHIVED Giardia?

    maybe see if you can get tested for a low-exposure Cryptosporidium infestation/infection. i just did yesterday. a type of bacteria that does its business in your intestines, comes from fecal contaminated water (tap,well,river,lake,etc), usually via deer, mice, etc... hope that helps! j
