    I've spoken with a few executives at Starbucks. My step son is one. No, not gluten free, nothing there is really safe unless pre-packaged and marked gluten free.

    These are marked gluten free and really fresh when purchased directly from the manufacturer, much fresher than what I have purchased from my grocery store. Sign up for their newsletter and they have regular specials: https://mortonbassett.com/ Also I asked about their vanilla extract, and it is NOT made with alcohol from a gluten grain.

    I found a lot of relief by following this, apple cider vinegar before any meal with protein really really really helped: https://drjockers.com/hiatal-hernia/

    I had bad acid reflux, and one of the things that helped is propping up the bed a little bit at the head. We started with a piece of 2x4 wood, and then added another 2x4 at the head a few days later, and the single 2x4 at the legs in the middle of the bed. Most articles say to elevate 8" to make a difference, but I can't imagine that incline, and it wasn...

    Search for KnittyKitty posts about B1 thiamine deficiency! It helped me TREMENDOUSLY!

    If it has a teeny bit, that's too much. You can call and ask what they use. No, using gliadenx is not a good idea, you must not consume any known gluten. I have read that others made their own little wafers at Home and brought a batch for the priest to bless and deliver from a separate container. My mom used to just take it mentally, i.e., get the blessing...

    With a history of anaphylaxis, nope.

    I could eat a little gluten and get absolutely no intestinal symptoms. So yes, absolutely get a different doctor.

    Bob's has gluten free oats, which caused me a BIG problem. I am sure their oats are gluten free, meaning that they meet the legal requirements to make that claim, but must be at the higher end of that limit, and can be a problem for Celiac's. I have found that I can eat "purity protocol" gluten-free oats. I tried gluten-free HARVEST brand and have no problems...

    Real food, aka whole food. Chicken, fish, beef, pork, lots of fresh veggies, a little fruit, nuts (I use nuts.com). Look into Whole30 recipes. I got tons of ideas from books from my dinky little local library before everything was shut down. Now all that is available online from the library and various web sites.

    I had major issues with acid reflux even after going gluten free. Acid reflux is NOT USUALLY CAUSED BY TOO MUCH ACID, IT'S TOO LITTLE!!! As we age or have digestive issues from Celiac's the hiatal spincter can get damaged. Also as we age, or from Celiac's, our stomach acid gets REDUCED. Yes, REDUCED. All this adds to not digesting your food (and reduced...

    Stop taking the magnesium for at least 3 days until no symptoms. Don't make any other changes to your supplements or diet. Then re-introduce the magnesium at a very very small dose, gradually increase every few days. Continue increasing every few days. KEEP A LOG. See if your symptoms return.

    Please reread...I made it clear that it is different, but a peanut allergy is how sensitive it is, not immediate: " ...how just the littles bit, even something they can't see, it can kill them, and this is how careful you have to be, that a littlest bit, even something you can't see can give you a reaction that although it will not kill you right then...

    Also, I have found that for people that really do not understand how serious it is, as the naturopath who explained it to me, put it in terms more of how people react with peanut allergies...how just the littles bit, even something they can't see, it can kill them, and this is how careful you have to be, that a littlest bit, even something you can't see can...

    Oh gosh, that's horrible. It will be a lot of work, but you'll have to just scrub and clean everything in your kitchen and replace any wooden spoons, pans with non-stick, and toaster or other appliances. It is what you will just have to do, it will be fine, it is fixable. They do not have a clue how serious it is. You need to tell them kindly and...

    You have to be careful of what it is injected with, but I'm super careful and I don't buy it unless it is actually marked gluten free. I can't remember what brand, but I have been able to find just the breast with the bones (not boneless) marked gluten free for the last 5 years at my local grocery store. You can easily debone it and make a boneless roast...

    No, but airborne flour can if you are breathing that in...eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to the same place.

    And a note about the weight...I was a little overweight, figured it was just me getting older. But as soon as I found out I had Celiac's and went gluten free, I dropped 30 lbs in a MONTH!!! and I was literally a bag of bones underneath from not absorbing any nutrition. It's taken me 5 years, but I've built back up muscle and bones and doing great at 6...

    Be aware that you need to be back on gluten for quite awhile before your endoscopy. You can search the group for how long...it's very important to be eating gluten before the endoscopy, and for quite awhile, but I don't remember...12 weeks? 8 weeks? equivalent of 1 slice of bread a day? And I have read that once someone is gluten free that does have...

    One of mine does that too! Awful part is when you've slugged down half a glass and then spot the bit of kitty litter in the bottom. Yes, lids are essential. But also, cats and dogs lick themselves, and then you pet them. I switched my cats to grain free so I don't have to worry about it (cats are obligate carnivores and the cats they are descended...

    In re-reading this article, it says "Thiamine deficiency leads to impaired glucose metabolism, decreased delivery of oxygen by red blood cells, ... " I just had a wow moment. I also have Thalassemia, which is a genetic anemia where the red blood cells are small and have less hemoglobin, and thus carry less oxygen. Since taking the thamine, I have had...

    I had a really great reaction by following knitty kitty's advice and adding extra B5 Thiamine in the form of Benfotiamine. I go to a naturopath and have resolved most of my issues from all the years of not being diagnosed with Celiac's, but the asthma was hanging on and getting worse each year. I turned blue regularly, albuterol inhaler almost hourly...
