ARCHIVED Celiac Disease And Topical Applications ?
Mango04 replied to irish daveyboy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
gee thanks Good point. It's also worth noting that some shampoos, conditioners, soaps etc. in the US now say "gluten-free" right on the bottle. Dessert Essence and California Baby are examples of this. There is also an entire company dedicated to gluten-free soaps (www.g fsoap.com - but take out the space). Why would all this exist if... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Disease And Topical Applications ?
Mango04 replied to irish daveyboy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I just think it's funny that someone starts a new thread on this subject like, once a week now. Dave, I do think your point about additives and preservatives causing symptoms is very legitamate. People should take that into consideration when consuming processed foods. But seriously, how many times in a row does this same conversation about... -
If you stick to a gluten-free diet you should greatly lessen your risk of facing those complications. It sounds like you're well on your way to becoming 100% better...just give it a little more time. It takes some people several months. Don't worry about every accidental glutening setting you back. Just do the best you can to avoid getting contaminated...

ARCHIVED Calling All Cooks! Does Anyone Cook Chinese Food At Home?
Mango04 replied to angel42's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Do you have a pf changs nearby? If not, sometimes Chinese dishes that use a white sauce are gluten-free, but of course you'd have to ask. Here are some recipes: https://www.celiac.com/st_main.html?p_catid=59 (the orange chicken looks pretty good) egg rolls - Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Someone also posted not... -
ARCHIVED Does Xanthan Gum Go Bad?
Mango04 replied to Mango04's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks for the info. I think it's gets pretty "goopy" and gross when mixed with any type of liquid. Thats all I meant. I guess I'll risk it and use this really old bag of xanthan gum, instead of buying a new batch -

Hi Julie! Welcome back. So sorry you've been sick . It's nice to "see" you though -
ARCHIVED Does Xanthan Gum Go Bad?
Mango04 replied to Mango04's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Bump Anybody know? All I can find is information about xanthan gum extending the shelf life of things, so I'm guessing it lasts for a while? -
ARCHIVED Big Problem, Neediing Help Asap!
Mango04 replied to mamaw's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
In all fairness, I don't think it's possible for a non-celiac to truly understand the importance of a cake in this type of situation. Most gluten-eating people would assume that everyone would get over something like this soon enough. It's unfortunate that happened though. I like paperdoll's idea. Maybe you can bake yourself a really awesome gluten... -
ARCHIVED Arrowhead Mills Pancake Mix
Mango04 replied to imsohungry's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I think it makes really tasty muffins, but I also really really really love the pancakes it makes. If you make muffins with it and add in some extra ingredients (carrots, apples, chocolate chips...whatever) you could probably find a way to make it good. -
ARCHIVED Camping This Weekend - What Will I Eat?
Mango04 replied to DingoGirl's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
I'm pretty sure TJ's has pre-cooked, nitrite-free, gluten-free bacon (okay you'd have to check on the gluten-free part). Might be good for camping?...I dunno, I don't usually eat bacon...nor do I often camp (So why am I posting here? ) I thought most bacon was gluten-free though, except for McDonald's and one other really uncommon brand? I don... -
ARCHIVED Does Xanthan Gum Go Bad?
Mango04 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've had a bag of it in the pantry for...I don't even know months...maybe years? Is it supposed to be kept in the fridge? Should I toss it and buy a new bag...or is its shelf life pretty indefinite? A quick google search provided no answers . Thanks. -
ARCHIVED Which Is Less Rude When Going To A Wedding?
Mango04 replied to cruelshoes's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
You could always contact the caterer to see if anything they're serving might happen to be safe. Sometimes it's just not hard for them to prepare your chicken without sauce at the last minute (for example). Bring your own food too (just small things) and eat before you go. You don't have to involve the bride at all. You can usually just contact... -

I use Bare Minerals foundation with Nars blush. Works well for me -
ARCHIVED A New Weight Loss Support/accountability Thread
Mango04 replied to lonewolf's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Yeah, I like hemp milk, but it probably woudn't be as good to someone who can have dairy. It's a good alternative to milk...it's much creamier and a bit more nutritious than rice milk. So...today so far: B- one apple, one banana and peanut butter L - tinkyada pasta and some herb salad with balsamic vinegar D - I'm really hungry, so hopefully... -
Yeah, it's possible to be intolerant or sensitive, but not truly allergic.

ARCHIVED The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original
Mango04 replied to TriticusToxicum's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I've been spotted Hi Dingo! -
It seems like a lot of people on this board believe that all forms of gluten intolerance will eventually result in villi damage. I'm curious about why people think that. I always thought there were many forms of gluten intolerance and some gluten intolerant people won't ever have villi damage, even if gluten severely damages the body in other ways. ...

ARCHIVED Update On Timothy
Mango04 replied to VydorScope's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Thanks for sharing your story. I wonder if your son had an entirely different condition as a baby and the symptoms of that condition were exacerbated by gluten? I think many conditions besides celiac disease can cause a person to react negatively to gluten. Just speculating... I guess reitroducing oats would give you somewhat of an answer though.... -
ARCHIVED Raw Vegan Food, Is It Safe?
Mango04 replied to tuxedocat's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Raw vegan food is pretty much always gluten-free. I guess it's good to double check when you're there, but I've been to raw vegan restaurants that had 100% gluten-free menus. -
ARCHIVED Super Fridge Fudge Recipie
Mango04 replied to missy'smom's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Cool, I'll try that one. The other day I made fudge with 1/2 cup almond butter, 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/2 cup agave and 1/2 cup coconut butter. (Then I mixed it all together on the stove and added more of each ingredient until I liked the way it tasted ) I'll have to try it with peanut butter and honey next time. Yum. -

I sometimes use Arrowhead Mills chocolate chip cookie mix with coconut oil instead of butter. They are really good
