ARCHIVED Has Anyone Heard Of This Or Had It Done?
bluejeangirl replied to Canadian Karen's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
No not with this clinic but it was back in the 80's when they probably got away with more. Does anyone remember a time when hydrogen peroxide was a cure all? You were supposed to dilute it and drink it. Its claim was to deliver oxygen and kill certain types of disease for instance candida in you gut. Anyway you could buy it flavored and all ready... -
ARCHIVED Has Anyone Heard Of This Or Had It Done?
bluejeangirl replied to Canadian Karen's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I had this done many years ago. We had to fly to Reno Nev. to get it done. We were following the advice of a lady who thought the world of this clinic and how it helped her so much. The thing I remember is holding that bar and her shoving all these plates into a machine that would represent the food. I tested high on everything. She made it sound... -
ARCHIVED The Gift Baskets Are Starting
bluejeangirl replied to jkmunchkin's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
You know what also would be good is smoked salmon. Then serve it on a nice tray with cream cheese and rice crackers. I think they run about $30 a pound but I know all those gift baskets are expensive. Gail -
ARCHIVED Is All Malt Barley?
bluejeangirl replied to FeedIndy's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Barley malt adds to the flavor because it has MSG in it. There is also malt extract and malt flavoring to look out for. I've avoided MSG for 20 years because I'm extremely sensitive to it and never knew barley malts had it. And I drank beer quite often. Its no wonder I never felt good. Gail -
ARCHIVED Ate Peanuts...
bluejeangirl replied to Mary Contrary's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Peanuts are very hard to digest and I found that out on thanksgiving. Its was the only snack I could have and ate to many. I can have about a tablespoon in a peanut butter sandwich with no problems but I can't eat much more. I was also making cookies made with almond flour awhile back. It was the only sweet I had in awhile so I ate like 6 of them. Well... -
ARCHIVED My Sister Foud Someone Who Claims. . .
bluejeangirl replied to ptkds's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
My husband being a Chiro and most of our friends being Chiro's and going to conventions year after year you soon realize the profession has its quacks. There's one guy who practices in our city that would say something like this because he thinks he can cure anything. The sad thing is he's all personality and has a radio show on sat. mornings. He has a... -
What I do is just heat up water and drink it in a coffee cup. This way I can drink all day long without the accumulative affects of coffee or tea. It does seem to help. Just holding it in my hands feels good. Gail

ARCHIVED Very Shakey, Almost Low Blood Sugar Feeling...
bluejeangirl replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks NoGluGirl I have taken your advice as a confirmation that yes my yeast problem is out of control again. I've had problems in the past confirmed by a a very good doctor and he has seen me through a pretty tough recovery process but that was 15 years ago. My digestion has been real poor lately and its not just gluten that giving me the problems. I... -
Grannynanny, Does Maggiano's have a gluten free menu? I love that resturant. If they do did you try it? I go to Chicago about once or twice a year. In the magazine Living Without they list a few resturants that are gluten free. They list Adobo Grill, Ben Pao, Bistro 110, Chicago Diner, Frontera Grill , and Weber Grill and Restarant. They didn't like...

ARCHIVED Chemical Sensitivity
bluejeangirl replied to kbtoyssni's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
On Oprah on tuesday the topic is how to go Green in your home along with Al Gore talking about the environment and stuff. I didn't get alot out of a commercial they showed but I thought I'd pass this along so you can put it on your calender. Gail -
ARCHIVED Very Shakey, Almost Low Blood Sugar Feeling...
bluejeangirl replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
This is one of my symptoms also. The mornings are the worse and I have to be careful to choose the right foods and I'll get better as the day goes on. The thing is I don't want to eat after a glutening. Or I'll crave salty or sweet foods probably because I'm not hungry. I'm wondering if this is a B vitamin deficiency. I've had these feelings come... -
ARCHIVED I Tried Glutino Spinach And Feta Cheese Pizza
bluejeangirl replied to Ursa Major's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Ursula Pizza is a must in my boring diet. I don't like a lot of gluten free breads and crusts either but I found a great tortilla called Healthy Hemp tortillas from French Meadow bakery located in Minnesota. They do have a web site that you can order these. The ingredients in these are mostly seeds. Organic sunflower, flaxseed, pumpkin seed, hemp... -
I'm with you clhsc I want to give up dairy because it gives me problems but it has only become annoying recently. I notice on days where I have cheese and put milk in my cereal I'll get the phlegm(sp) in my throat early in the morning and sometimes just start sneezing like crazy. When I go without it those symptoms go away. I was wondering about soy cheese...

ARCHIVED Do I Understand This Correctly ?
bluejeangirl replied to Mamato2boys's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
If you have time listen to these radio shows on gluten intolerance. Its not that much difference in fact according to this guy its almost like pre-celiac. I noticed there was two shows and I only listened to one so far. You might have to cut and paste just the first line. Gail Open Original Shared Link BioHealth Takes to the Airwaves What's... -
I've been through the strict diet your talking about and the nystitin along with other antifungals. This was when I was younger and could survive on 5 hrs of sleep. Thats all I would sleep. I can't do that anymore. I didn't like feeling like i had the flu 24 hrs aday either. It depends what you want to do but when I feel like its getting out of balance...

I got glutened this thanksgiving and my worse symptoms are joint pain especially in my neck because I sit at a lap top which kills my shoulders being that the key board is too high. I also get very depressed which will turn to anxiety if I have to go into...

ARCHIVED Celiac Disease: Not Just A Gi Problem
bluejeangirl replied to Sophiekins's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Wow that's interesting. I've always had this and I don't know to much about it. I get out of joint very easily and I'm hyper mobil. Where are the HMS boards? I'd love to know more about this. I'm better on gluten free but I also get relief if I stay away from nightshades. My neck is sore today because I've been handling gluten for two days trying to... -
ARCHIVED Herxheimer Reaction Aka Healing Crisis
bluejeangirl replied to Marlene's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Don't feel bad about it Marlene. I won't take any anti fungals anymore because I just can't handle how you feel. I personally feel if you just take a good probionic the good bacteria will start to thrive and beat up the bad ones. I would try to stick to a diet thats very low in carbs too. Thats all I do and it works for me. I also heard from a very good... -

ARCHIVED Help Against The Gerd! (reflux)
bluejeangirl replied to allison's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I agree with alot of what Mike said. Whenever I lower my carbs I start to feel better. I don't have alot of acid type fruits and veggies like tomatoes. I also had to give up wine which was hard and I only had about 5 oz. with my evening meal. I hope I can have that again. I have a hard time eating liquid meals like protein shakes and soup. It just sits... -

ARCHIVED Something Martha Steward Did
bluejeangirl replied to bluejeangirl's topic in Publications & Publicity
you guys are too funny. I did watch Altons show earlier this week on how to make the perfect gravey. He says the only way is with FLOUR cough cough. I guess some of the vegetable sources make you gravey clear and not as appealing. Well Alton never is sitting on the toilee for 2 hrs. (we can be so rude) Gail -
I just wanted to mention last week I was watching Martha Steward and she was demonstrating how to clean your kitchen and appliances. When she came to the coffee grinder she showed how you just put a slice of bread in it and run it for a few seconds and it cleans the inside by sort of wiping it clean. So warning now you can't just go over to the neighbors...
