Does anyone know of a brand of baking powder that does not have corn starch, or any gluten, corn, or soy in it? I saw a recipe for some shredded squash fried patties that looked good,and for some reason they put a little baking powder in it. I have seen baking powder in some gluten free recipes before and it never specifies a bran, so I assume all baking...

So maybe it was the grape? I never would have guessed. I also remembered my mother bought me a pack of baked goods from some Paleo bakery online place. I put them in the freezer, but not sure if they would be okay on an elimination diet. I just am wondering if nuts bother me or not. When I got the paleo baked items I had a donut and seemed bloated. But...

So that Silk coconut milk is probably okay on an elimination diet? I guess I can always try it one morning in coffee and see how I feel. Spicy beef ramen broth sounds so good. I bookmarked the Jarrow website, but then saw the price was like $30 for that ramen broth, so that's not going to happen. I used the store locator for Protes, and it showed...

I get feeling like flu symptoms on and off anyway, part of my on going health issues, so might not even notice that. But with little carb and lots of protein, I would feel like my sugar crashes a lot, or just feel blah, weak (although I have that issue on and off too). It is good to know it could be a hump to get over. I worried about the high fat since...

If anyone is interested, I contacted the company for those new RX Bars. I see they are gluten-free, but I asked about corn and soy. This was their reply: So I "Thanks for reaching out. Right now, we can confirm that corn is found in the natural flavors of the following products: Kids Apple Cinnamon Kids Berry Blast Mixed Berry Mango Pineapple Honey...

Ennis, thank you so much for sharing so much info. It is a huge help. Wow, you know, I was on a lot of antibiotics when I was 18 and had mono, but no dr would even test me for mono, they would just say it could be a flu but give me more antibiotics "just in case" it was something else. And all those antibiotics did cause some problems of its own. ...

Ennis, is this the right spice place: Open Original Shared Link And do you find it in any stores, or only on their website? So, you think it's okay to use some of their spices on elimination diet? I would love some flavor right about now, lol! I see on the above site they have a curry spice too, so instead of looking for the curry paste, I could maybe...

Thanks for the info. A friend sent me some of their Crio Bru like a year or so ago (before I knew I had gluten issues), and I somehow lost the instructions for measurements that they sent with it. And I used my regular coffee maker (auto drip) since I don't have a french press. It wasn't bad though. Kind of different. I love hot beverages, especially in...

I was watching a tv show and one character said they had a gluten allergy and the other character was like, that's not even a real thing. So if it showed up on a tv show, it most likely is something some people talk about, and some people apparently feel it is not a real thing. We can maybe thank the gluten-free diet just for the sake of going gluten free...

Are there health benefits to the cocoa nibs, or just a good snack for cravings when you can't eat candy with things like soy or corn syrup in it? I have never tried a cocoa nib and never even heard of them before. Sounds interesting though. I did once have a drink that was made similar to brewing coffee, but it was I guess, like ground up cocoa nibs, or...

I hope you see dr about our female issues. I had periods starting a week or two sooner than they should, or would have my time of the month last two weeks, and heavy, and needed pills with progesterone in them, no estrogen. The uterus wall can thicken and cause problems and sometimes you need progesterone to help balance things out. But I am glad you...

Wow, I didn't know that about rice and arsenic. That is good to know. I am giving up rice right now, but hoping to go back to it. I miss the white rice noodles and rice cakes, and some regular plain rice too once in awhile. Geez, what can we eat? How do people not get sick of meats, fish, and veggies? I am trying an elimination diet right now and going...

I feel your pain and disheartened mood. I found out I had a gluten sensitivity last summer. I've had health issues my entire adult life, since a bad case of epstein barr virus at age 18. So perhaps my fatigue and aches were gluten related? But over a year ago the stomach raged up, and that is when I found out. I am still not sure I trust dr's and their...

The tomato powder sounds good, and I'm bookmarking this page for spice info you gave. I found Cento canned tomato puree and crushed tomatoes that don't have citric acid. I was giving up tomatoes on this elimination diet, but I just was craving a little flavor in that soup, since not using any garlic, onion, or spices. The good news is the soup did...

Thanks for all the info. I'll consider it. I'd have to be brave to give it a try, lol. It just always sort of freaks me out thinking about water up my nose. I know it's not like getting a nosefull of water when like swimming, but my brain just keeps thinking of that. If it helps a lot though, I hope I can just suck it up and try it sometime. I'll have...
