    It's probably because peanuts are beans (legumes), not nuts.

    ppl = people Hard learning a new language, isn't it?

    That's why I keep coke or juice boxes around. I can't eat mid-crash or I'll throw up. Also, gatorade is sugary, but probably not sugary enough to bring you out of a crash unless you drink a lot of it, and then you'll throw up because you drank too much. It sucks. Go buy some juicy juice

    I don't have any corn problems, in fact, eating corn seems to HELP my digestion. I feel really good digestively after eating popcorn, etc. I've eaten roast that way 6000000 times, even since being gluten-free, and I've been fine. I really think it's the tapioca, I notice too much at once makes my stomach hurt. Dairy is fine for me, thus far anyway...

    Ditto to all!!! They can't get rid of Izzy. They can't. I was shouting at the tv when Meredith and McDreamy went into that room. I'm so sick of that storyline, I don't want it to be Ross and Rachel in scrubs

    My doctor told me that if everyone would just eat meat and vegetables, nobody would ever get sick. I've said it before and I'll say it again, my Dr. is a smart woman!

    I generally don't have a dairy problem, unless I chug a whole glass of milk. It normally does not bother me, especially if it's cultured like cheese or yogurt. The pudding may have upset me, I don't know. I'm not sure tapioca agrees with me entirely. Usually the only time I have a problem with dairy is after being glutened. I probably am just sick,...

    For the last two days, I've been SICK. I hugged a heating pad to my stomach so I could sleep, took bentyl, 3 tylenol to keep the pain at bay. I've had D, been nauseated, and got up in the middle of the night both nights with D. I'm exhausted, weak, and nauseated after everything I eat. I seem to get D after every meal as well. I'm gluten-free, what's...

    It's a personal decision and if you react to it, don't ingest it, regardless of the cause. As long as we're throwing out scientist connections, my husband is a chemical engineer, and those are the people that acutally work in the frontlines of the plants that make the alcohol. They design the plants and often help with formulations. After talking to him...

    I'm pretty sure that with my mom it is concern that I have something life long that could potentially be life threatening. She knows I have a problem with gluten, she's just hoping it's just an intolerance, not celiac. I would eat anything as a child but had a "sensitive stomach" after my brother and sister both went away to school and I got stomachaches...

    If it's authentic gyro meat, there is no way they would put soy sauce in it. I've never seen a greek recipe with soy sauce in it. Wheat in greek is "stitos" bread is "psomi" meat is "kreas" I forget how to ask questions in greek, since I haven't had the opportunity to speak it in a year, but if you say something along the lines of: "e-nay stitos...

    They don't need 5 different vials, they just need a few drops for each antibody test, so they strech out the sample. I only had one vial and had all 5 tests done. It's like when you get a complete blood count they don't take 50 vials, they just use one vial to test for everything.

    Why on Earth would they put gluten in cucumber sauce? All it should be is yogurt, cucumber, lemon juice or vinegar, and salt. Maybe some dills. Honestly, that's nuts!!! Most greek restaurants get their gyro meat from the same company in the states, and you can tell which by the posters they have around with the pretty Greek lady eating a gyro, I can...

    Parasites can cause all of those things. People used to die because in the early 1900's someone came up with a diet pill full of tapeworm eggs! Sure, you have an insatiable appetite, but you're starving to death. Make sure you write a list of all of your problems before seeing the dr.

    I was talking to my mom on Saturday, and in the same conversation she went from "I wonder if that store in Brooklyn has any good gluten-free stuff for you" to "you probably don't have celiac and you'll grow out of it" She tells me that both her and my sister had the same types of GI problems that I do (although my symptoms are apparently worse...

    LOL If the kids do correct you, say "Oh, you never remember dear because gluten poisioning makes you have amnesia(or seizure, out of body experience, demonic possession, or what ever tickles your fancy that way)" (obviously a joke)
  17. penguin
    Holy crap! That's definitely not healthy, and just starving yourself couldn't cause that in a month! The max amount of healthy weight to lose in a month is what? 12 lbs for an average person? Maybe 20 for a larger person? Yikes! I hope you get some answers!!!
  18. penguin
    Thanks for that! I guess I'll just splash some Jack in my homemade stuff

    I don't know what that means. Unless you have advanced celiac disease, it's not likely he'd see it through the upper GI alone. Actually, even if your intestines look like linoleum I don't know how he'd see celiac damage. To see the villous atrophy, biopsies of the villi must be analyzed with a microscope. About your blood test, if you've been gluten-free...

    You've been gluten free for two weeks, right? That will probably yield a negative result, you have to be eating gluten to create antibodies...

    Why not a "don't feed the kid" shirt? Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link <---those are cute also cute... Open Original Shared Link There are others out there,that's just an example. And teaching the kids not to take anything from anyone without asking a parent first

    One huge advantage is that my Whole Paycheck is the landmark store. The place is massive!!!!

    I eat them all the time with no adverse reaction. Although, with your mystery stomach right now, such excessively processed food might not be a good idea.
  24. penguin
    My whole foods carrys it, but so does wild oats here it varies, I guess
