  1. Actually it's not normal to have mild D at times, nausea and bloating. These things can be caused by Celiac or non-celiac gluten intolerance (if you get tested by a doctor and test negative, you could still have non-celiac gluten intolerance). I feel great all of the time as long as I steer clear from gluten (and dairy and soy). You can experiment...
  2. I don't know how you do it. My brother is in high school and some of those kids walk around with insane entitlement complexes. Good luck with the end of the year.
  3. I just don't think we should complain too much about the complainers, because than we become complainers ourselves. lol. But I agree, people should get over it. I think they are, because I haven't heard anything about it in a while, so we can all move on now lol.
  4. Chebe is the only bread I make a point to eat.
  5. If he has to choose between being sick all of the time and missing classes (and possible failing school), or facing the challenges of a gluten-free diet, wouldn't the diet be easier? Maybe since summer's coming up, he can try it for a month or so and see how it goes. It might be worth a shot. I don't have a diagnosis, but there's no way I could function...
  6. too many banannas can cause that problem...
  7. Soy makes me feel glutened too..
  8. Well here's one definition: The glutamate in monosodium glutamate is not identical to the glutamate found in plants and animals. The glutamate in monosodium glutamate contains L-glutamic acid, D-glutamic acid, pyroglutamic acid and other contaminants. But there is no D-glutamic acid, pyroglutamic acid, or other contaminants in the protein found in plants...
  9. I think she's saying broccoli contains naturally occuring glutamates? I don't think it has anything to do with anything that's added or sprayed on. Sorry to butt in, but I've been following this thread b/c I find it really interesting!
  10. maybe you need to refresh your screen?
  11. You might have overamped on the protein. As a general rule of eating, every time you eat something you should have some protein, some fat and some carbs. Maybe add some fruit and veggies to the egg and cheese? Or...maybe the cheese is bothering you (dairy). I know that's a whole separate issue though.
  12. Hmmm. Maybe I got the Canadian version. I did notice there was french writing all over the box. lol. I bought them in California though. I much prefer the cutletts to the nuggetts. They were awesome.
  13. Not that we need another thread on Ian's chicken nuggets, but I just thought I'd share the news. I decided to splurge on some gluten-free and DF junk food last night and so my dinner involved some Ian's nuggets. Well, they're now called chicken cutletts, and I'm pretty sure they changed the recipe in addition to changing the shape of them. Still free of...
  14. There was a thread a while back about the connection between long eyelashes and celiac disease. Maybe your problem could be connected as well.
  15. Well there was dairy in everything you ate... Have you considered eliminating dairy to see if that helps? You could have developed an allergy or intolerance to milk even if you didn't have one previously...
  16. Maybe you can stock up on as much naturally gluten-free food as you can for the entire family. That way you won't be spending extra money to keep everyone gluten-free (by purchasing the specialty packaged food). You can pack enough food in a cooler for the three days it will take you to get there. Just keep adding new ice packs. Then get special gluten...
  17. Well, when you go gluten-free, you might suddenly notice that you do react to gluten. Small traces might suddenly start to affect you. If not, just be as careful as you can, and other than that..don't worry too much about it! You'll be fine.
  18. Falafel often contains gluten. Here's an example of a recipe. You can see it contains bulgar. http://www.recipezaar.com/114320 I've seen lots of other versions of falafel that contain wheat in various forms (not neccesarily flour). The gyro meat could have also been marinated in or spiced with something that consisted of gluten. Hope you feel...
  19. This is just my opinion, but in order to keep your daughter safe at camp, I would tell the cook that she can only eat food that contains zero parts per million of gluten.
  20. click on "advanced search" and select gluten-free from there
  21. It's very possible to have non-celiac gluten intolerance, in which case a strict gluten-free diet still needs to be followed.
  22. Yes! Send the sick people home for their own sake...and to protect the people they could possibly infect...
  23. 100% pure maple syrup is gluten-free (all it is is maple syrup). If there are other ingredients involved, that could be a different story. Stick with the pure stuff if you can and you'll be fine. I think there's a really long thread on this somewhere. I"ll try to find it.
  24. There's also a risk of dangerous additives, preservatives, toxins, chemicals, artificial flavors, artifical colors, hydrogenated oils and all sorts of other stuff that's simply just not meant to be digested by the human body, even if it is completely gluten-free. I'm not neccessarily just talking about Lays Stax. I just think people like us with weaker...
  25. Even if it's 100% absolutely gluten-free, there's a chance that one of the many weird-o sounding ingredients in those just doesn't make you feel good. Just b/c it's marketed as food doesn't mean it's not toxic to your body
