    I've had really good luck with GNC. They have been stating all the information right on the bottle. I had a really hard time finding a fish oil without soy. But the deodorized GNC fish oil is safe. It says: Other Ingredients: Fish Body Oil, Gelatin, Glycerin No Sugar, No Starch, No Artificial Color, No Artificial Flavors, No Preservatives, Sodium...

    Ok, this old thread is hilarious! Love it! Yup, I love it! I don't like the berry one though, even though I love berries! My favorite is to mix the Cinnamon crunch with EnviroKidz Koala crisps...YUM!! I also bought the Ener-G bread as my first gluten-free bread. It went in the trash after the first bite, and I even toasted it!

    Check yes for me too! I haven't been able to wear costume jewelry ever really. I could tolerate small amounts as a kid..like putting clear nail polish over the back of a pendant so the metal didn't touch me...but I can't even handle that anymore! It's only gold and platinum for me now! I'm sure my hubby would love it if I could wear the cheaper stuff...

    Oooh, these are my favorite chocolate sites! I find these brands at my health food stores, and Target too!

It actually has helped me though, at least now I can recognize packaging at a store and already know it...

    This is what they emailed me when I contacted them: Thank you for your interest in our Smart Beat squeeze margarine. This product does not contain dairy (casein), gluten or soy. Joan Dippolito Consumer Relations Now, my only problem is finding this stuff!

    Ooh, I'll have to check that one out! Thank you! If anyone hasn't been here, this is a great one too. You can click on the allergens and it will pull up all the food without them in it! It's awesome! Open Original Shared Link

    ARCHIVED Severe Anxiety

    Sugarmag replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I'd honestly have your adrenal glands/cortisol levels checked out. I went through the same thing, for about 3-5 months, and by the end of that time, I think I had what people would consider a "nervous breakdown"!! I'm a really laid back easy going person, so I didn't know where all this anxiousness and fear was coming from. Turns out, my adrenals were...

    As far as I know...most fish oils, and vitamin E pills contain soy. Some of the fish oil ones will say that the way the ingredients are processed, that the soy should be ok for people who are sensitive. I am not willing to give it a try!! It took me forever, but I finally found one, it's actually from GNC. It's the Fish Body Oils 1000 Deodorized. It...

    The Sea Fresh toothpaste is gluten, soy and dairy free!! I just contacted them recently about a few things, and here is what they sent me: Dear Katie, Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Jason Product. We apologize for the delay in our reply and appreciate your patience. We strive to maintain the highest quality products and...

    Wow, isn't it amazing how things, (like surgery) can trigger other stuff to start happening in our bodies?!?! I was already gluten free before my surgery, but I wound up with the soy and dairy allergies soon after! (I think part of it was they had me on a super high protein diet to recover, and I went a bit nuts with the soy stuff, and sure enough, that...

    Oh that could definitely be it!! I can't even chew a regular piece of gum, without getting a rash. I do not recall my tongue tingling, but it may have...and maybe the rash was worse, so I didn't realize I had a problem with my tongue. The only gum I've found to be soy free is, Glee Gum, but the peppermint DOES have soy lecithin....tangerine and cinnamon...

    Well, I do have adrenal fatigue. Basically, I had a very invasive surgery last summer, and also own my own business, and work six days a week. I did not take as much time off from work as I was supposed to. (Surgeon wanted me to take 4 weeks off, I only took one week off.) Anyways, after feeling so drained, and lethargic, and gaining weight, and aches...
  13. Sugarmag
    Nope, you are definitely not the only one!! I can not tolerate any soy lecithin either! I even tried to chew a piece of regular gum, for like, 2 min...then spit it out...sure enough...rash all over my neck, chest, and jawline!! It seems to take a while for my rash to completely disappear too...so it's super annoying!
  14. Sugarmag
    WOOHOOO!! I was thinking it had to be casein free too, I just didn't want to get my hopes up in case I couldn't have it!! Thank you!! I will be on the hunt for it now!!

    I ended up contacting Rice Dream recently, partly about this. Anyways, from what I got out of the conversation I had with the customer service rep is this: Rice Dream got new equipment that can detect gluten in even smaller doses than it could before. Every single batch of everything they make, that they put gluten free on, has passed the FDA standards...

    Oh, I'm definitely getting this then!! Thanks for the super quick reply too Mango04!!

    I'm going to check this one out for sure! I've been using coconut oil for everything, and it would be nice to change it up! I can't have dairy, or soy either....thanks for finding out for us! ps....does dairy free also mean casein free???
  18. Sugarmag
    I checked out the site...but I didn't see anywhere where it stated Parma was soy free. Maybe it lists it on the package itself?? I did try the rice cheese this weekend. I attempted to make a grilled cheese. It didn't really melt very well. Maybe, if I left it on longer, it may have melted a tiny bit.......but then the bread would be a little...

    Yeah, I love hot peppers too, so I thought it would be great! Oh well, lesson learned!! I'm going to check out that pasta too! Thanks for the link!!

    Hmmm...I've never even seen just quinoa pasta before!! I'll have to keep looking I guess. Do you remember what brand the plain quinoa was?? I do know that if you overcook Ancient Harvest...it's not nearly as good. It took me a few times, but now I just make sure it doesn't boil for more than 5 min, and then it's great. Any more than that, and it's really...

    I love using Chachies salsa. All of them are gluten free, and even say so right on the package!! I think it's the freshest tasting salsa out there, in my opinion. Yummy! They're in the refrigerated section, usually by the deli somewhere. Open Original Shared Link
  22. Sugarmag
    I second that!! Quinoa flakes are yummy! I've been using it in just about anything I'd normally use breadcrumbs for as well. And yes, it is WAY cheaper than anything else I've found!! (I love to bake a chicken breast, with dijon mustard on it, then sprinkle crushed corn tortilla chips with the quinoa flakes on em...kinda like shake n' bake...

    I love the Ancient Harvest brand of Quinoa pasta!! It's a corn & quinoa blend, and it's great. I even cook it for family that can have gluten, and they all loved it too! I've also been experimenting with Almond, Rice and Hemp milks too for cooking. Some are good for certain things, others for something else! Maybe I'll find a universal one someday...

    I live in Naples, and have my business on Marco Island. (Small world!!) I honestly haven't been up to Sanibel in ages!! I actually just emailed a "fancier" restaurant here in Naples, just looking for something different than the chains too. They have one in Naples, and one in Bonita Springs.

    I actually haven't tried them, but one just opened up right by me recently. Unfortunately, I also can't have soy or dairy, so I haven't gone there!! But I do know a few people that absolutely love it!! (One is a celiac, and she's always been ok there!!) I've heard it's really nice and fresh tasting for fast food. There is a link to the food/allergen...
