ARCHIVED Outback's gluten-free Menu
teankerbell replied to penguin's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I have eaten many times at Outback and I have never had a problem getting glutened. The wait staff and chefs are all knowledgeable and trained with this disease, at least the one I go to regularly in Illinois.

teankerbell replied to warrenfamily's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
The most recent issue of Gluten Free Living Magazine says that we don't need to be overly concerned with bath products getting into the blood stream. Traces of gluten is very low. Use your own judgement. -
It's the pregnancy that is causing the heartburn. Try 1/4 tsp of Baking Soda w/ 1/2 cup of water. The recipe is on the box and it is safe. Tastes like salt water.

ARCHIVED How To Deal In A Non-gluten-free Household?
teankerbell replied to tracii's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
We still have gluten in the house but only one person out of 3 eats gluten now. If I see crumbs, etc. I wipe it down and I have anti-bacterial gel at the kitchen sink for my hands. I use to get very uptight about it, but since I do most of the cooking for everyone anyway, it isn't a big issue for me. I label my stuff so they know not to eat it. Whoever... -

ARCHIVED Acid Reflux Connection And Celiac/gluten Intolerance?
teankerbell posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I know some one who has been diagnosed with having Acid Reflux for years. When her kids were born, they had it and were medicated for it.

ARCHIVED Natural Occuring Glutamates
teankerbell replied to Lister's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Ok- I looked it up on Whole Foods website and this is what they say: What is "glutamate"? Glutamate is derived from glutamic acid, a major building block for proteins. It is found naturally in our bodies and in protein-containing foods, such as cheese, milk, meat, peas, and mushrooms. MSG is one of several types of glutamate. When glutamate is released... -

ARCHIVED Gf Restaurant Chains
teankerbell replied to Karen(England)'s topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Traveling is very difficult for us. I have not had good success at very many restaurants. gluten-free and non gluten-free. I always end up having to send the plate back to be made correctly, again and sometimes more than once or even though I am specific that I have a food allergy and how I need my food prepared, I still get sick. Or I get a waitperson... -

ARCHIVED How Strict Do We Need To Be?
teankerbell replied to radman's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Dr., I am a 44 year old woman and I have been recently diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, maybe. I have had 3 blood tests and the Rheumatologist could not definitively diagnose me, even though my RA factor was above normal each time I was tested. All she could say is I have some sort of auto-immune problem. Fast-forward a few months later - I take...
