awesome thank you so much! im not in the us so i can't find those particular brands, are they "young green jackfruit in brine" is that the right type? im asuming the ones in syrup would be too sweet. those ideas sound great i didn't even think about using it in a stir fry. i actually just...

hey krstannkaty did you get tested and rule out celiac disease before going gluten free? if not now is your best opportunity to since you've only been gluten free for a week. most people find it very hard to do a gluten challenge to be tested months or years later. there definetely alot of...

they are all in the ref range so you've tested negative for Celiac, your total IGA is in the normal range as well which means you are not IgA deficient and its unlikely that they are false negatives were you eating gluten for a few weeks before the blood test, if you had already gone gluten...

Yes i have celiac been gluten-free for 10 months, had an iron deficiency (was hoping that was the cause of knee pain) and am being treated for suspected sjogrens syndrome. im surprised they didn't do other bloodwork for you, one of the first tests i had in relation to joint pain was for rheumatoid...

an allergy test for tap water sounds quite suspicious, i've never seen any type of water listed as part of a food allergy test panel. i can't imagine how that is possible to test for, sounds like it would be a extremely rare allergy also doesn't tap water vary depending where you are. do you have...
