    I'll check out the rice milk, not something I use. Supermarket bread you can get the DS loaves in supermarkets. They are wheat free and gluten-free and dairy free. They do contain Soya though. As to labelling, READ EVERYTHING..... While they should list allergens they often seem to manage to hide them. I prefer to find a brand that states (for...

    I think you misread it ??? I have to say its not crystal clear but the say the 'crozes' which they say are the "The grooves inside the oak barrel" .. I have to admit I looked at the pictures they had to clarify this as its not so clear... It is a bit worrying though.... since they way they word it all makes it sound like a "traditional" way ... which...

    Serious question ... is that ALL reactions or specifics. (I should maybe have said, the one reaction I no longer get almost EVER is migranes.... and VERY rarely acid reflux but the poop is proably more so or the same)

    https://www.celiac.com/categories/Gluten%25...s-Wheat-Starch/ Yet the first article is the Fasano study (with the tabular data removed). The missing tabular data clearly shows a 9% reduction (from memory) in Vh/c-d for the 10mg/d group. Every time I read one of these studies the wording is always along the lines of "no significant extra damage...

    This is true in my experience too. I react more quickly and it feels more violently though I think a part of this is psychological. As Rice guy say's your general heath gets better and better so when you do slip up you have further to fall. It might sound negative but its not really, I think I'm just as ill but it FEELS worse because I'm used to...

    But its not the same thing..... "Processed in a facility ....." is not the same as adding an ingredient. Also, until On March 30, 2007 Kraft was owned by the same company is Phillip Morris. (Indeed Phillip Morris Group was renamed Altria group) So essentially the spin off went to the shareholders of Phillip Morris, These are the same people...

    Lobita, no need for the link for me.... I believe you Anyway, the problem is that stuff line finings or flavorings etc. can actually change source. So unless a company is REQUIRED to do it then they will always avoid it. To be honest my take on liquors is that there are so many we can use as mixers and most taste pretty much the same after coke...

    Well done and good luck. I really would take Phyllis's advice onboard! I think its generally polite in a lecture to say if you have to leave but .... there are certain limits. If you bring this up when you have time get it all sorted and above board then you can have the door seat reserved (officially but quietly and without fuss) and then if you...

    Possibly but often its just a little wheat flour added. (not that this helps us) Here in the UK its next to impossible to find a corn tortilla without wheat. There are 4-5 major brands and only one of them has 100% corn in the corn tortilla's. Strangly the taco shells of the same brands use wheat in the tortilla are 100% corn???

    Th cheese thing is quite common, some grated cheeses bought in supermarkets do the same. Still another great comment Wow, its good to know that someone has visited every resto in the US and checked. As I understand it only NY (and I think now one more) requires restaurants to list ingredients (on demand). There is a website somewhere where...

    Well, your Dad isn't you ..... and they don't need to know this! Comments like they are making are just plain stupid and insensitive. You're obviously a bright girl so why associate with these idiots? As for being shy and worrying about hurting peoples feelings... Treat people as THEY treat YOU.... They are not shy about hurting your feelings...

    As Mango said right at the beginning. STOP STEP BACK RELAX Its not an issue of what you can eat but what you can prepare.. because there are literally thousands of choices. You need to take some time to stock up on essentials. If you don't have the time you need to MAKE IT. If you don't you will trap yourself in the exhausting catch...

    The problem is its a risk but one we can't quantify. Do Kraft actually label as such? (serious question.... just because they don't make the CYA doesn't mean that they don't do it.) Really it all depends on what the 'wheat product' is. Say its something containing Soy Sauce that contains wheat that is manufactured in the same factory as some...

    This is EXACTLY why we all are so protective of newbies.... Is eating cheeze of pizza stupid? I don't think its stupid, its just badly informed. I prettymuch think 90% of us would be doing this unless we found this board or others like it. This and similar issues are just not the sort of thing a Dr or GI are going to tell you. Being gluten-free...

    Spiced or the 'normal'. I think the issue here is with the spiced specifically?
  16. gfp
    Basically you can test negative while eating a bagette and snorting a line of flour after doing the same everyday .. though the chance is small.... every day/week gluten-free will increase the chance of a false negative... as Tim say's depending how fast you heal and how well they do the biopsy.

    The best pizza I had was very simple. It was just a mixed gluten-free flour (tapioco, rice and potato), salt and water cooked in a wood stove. I had this same mix in three seperate gluten-free pizzeria one in Rome and two in Napoli, they swore this was all that was in it. This however makes an Italian Pizza which is not usually to American tastes...

    I saw it by accident but I was actually in stitches watching it.... Im trying to download it so I can put it somewhere you can see.... but its being stubborn

    Well i think you put it better.... As you say this is NOT gluten free.... it's perhaps gluten-lite. What I am trying to explain is most of us actually started out like his. We simply didn't realise and our MD didn't know or think to mention it. Most of us actually got a lot better on gluten-lite ... but its not the end of the story. Many people...

    Sorry, they must have put an IP restriction on it. Give me some time and I'll try and think of a way of bypassing it ... if anyone is interested in watching that is. They did some 'sausages' on this one. Well they were not even allowed to be called sausages because they need to contain 23% meat minimum so they called them 'bangers' ( a british slang...

    I think you missed to point but not how you think.... You have never been 100% gluten free so you don't really know what your missing. (I don't mean this badly read the rest) If we take my aunt, she would have told you she was healthy, no problems from smoking... etc. etc. If you asked about her skin she would say "too much sun" ... if you asked about...

    I realise its infuriating BUT you answered your own question. It should be OK.... but they cannot guarantee it..... You asked a direct question. They actually answered you honestly. If you asked the same question of a food company they can use the fuzzy law to mislead you legally. If you ask "Does it contain ANY gluten" that is not the same...

    This is true, its equally a question what happens when we consume these products daily. What is deemed safe? The recent 'testing' by Fasano indicates a little damage to the villi is OK? Over the 90 day test 10mg/d produced a small negative growth in the villi. What happens over 1 year or 10? And... since it's you... what about neuropathy? What...

    gfp replied to rossi01's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff

    OK, I'll jump in. The so called experts are not chemists but nutritionists with apparently little or no post-grad chemistry. Our 'disagreement' over safety is just that.... I believe a product is not safe unless actually tested as such or cannot contain gluten. I have not seen ANY evidence of safe levels of gluten. This does not mean distilled...

    Ooops Forgot to say, this program mentions the connection of auto immune diseases and junk in food several times... Its certainly not the focus of the prog but it's mentioned,
