ARCHIVED Getting Pregnant With So Many Health Issues?
Green12 replied to Green12's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I didn't mean to cause a heated discussion with my original post, I guess I never thought that there were two very opposite sides. I am very comforted by the first few posts- thank you Canadian Karen, Alexandra, Ursula, Mommida for sharing your experiences and information- you really did set my mind at ease and made me realize that I just have to LIVE and... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Saliva Test?
Green12 replied to Green12's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Simply V, I don't know if you are still around or not, but I wanted to thank you for replying to my original thread and bringing corn allergies to my attention. I am slowly working to clear corn out of my diet and my supplements and toilletries by researching and gathering information while looking over the delphi site and other corn allergy websites. ... -
ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet?
Green12 replied to PreOptMegs's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
It looks like we could have a little club, the ANTI anti-candida rebellion or something like that! The disbiosis issue (candida, fungi, parasites, various pathogens) has been ingrained into my head for so long, it seems almost like it's the diagnosis dujour in the alternative health field, I don't know about the main stream medical world because I have... -
ARCHIVED Getting Pregnant With So Many Health Issues?
Green12 posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I'm not quite ready to try but I have been thinking about it alot lately and I have some fears about getting pregnant while having so many health issues (severe food allergies/intolerances, auto-immune illnesses, etc.). I was wondering if pregnancy made things worse as far as the mother's health, any chances of birth defects or harming the fetus development... -
ARCHIVED How Long Without Gluten Before Kissing?
Green12 replied to penguin's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I just had a thought, I'm wondering if even toothpaste and/or mouthwash gets the job done, does its properties/ingredients kill the gluten, or counteract it? -
ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet?
Green12 replied to PreOptMegs's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
It's like the hamster running on a wheel, he runs and he runs and he runs, faster and faster and faster, trying so hard to make progress- but he never gets anywhere. That's how I feel! I'm sure you do to! -
ARCHIVED For Those Of You With Corn Allergies/sensitivites
Green12 replied to danikali's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
dani, great idea for this thread! I am finding it confusing to compile a list of corn free products and etc. (some contradictory information and not a whole lot of thorough sources at least with what I have researched) ............and then to make them corn AND gluten free, even more challenging. I found this link when I was investigating about meds... -
ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet?
Green12 replied to PreOptMegs's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I am beginning to think the same thing about candida. I have been treated for systemic candida, fungus, parasites, basically disbiosis of the gut for 10 years now and it doesn't matter what I eat or what I do it never gets any better. I have done everything my health care professionals have told me to do, followed the strict diets, taken the supplements... -
Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. I know of a lot of people who can't tolerate the Metagenics Ultra Clear products so don't feel you are alone on that. Dr. Jefferey Bland formulated them for Metagenics and they are supposed to be tolerated by even the most sensitive of individuals and non-allergenic, designed to heal leaky gut, cleanse the liver...

ARCHIVED Other Intollerances/ Allergies
Green12 replied to lisaemu's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I was just thinking about starting a thread like this, my food allergy situation for years has been so grim and I can't seem to figure it out. Nobody I go to can figure it out either. I have done everything, crazy things, all in search of a solution to get better. And the money I have thrown away.... I don't mean to sound depressing because I still... -
I have the same thing happen, whole brown rice doesn't seem bother me or products that generally just have rice flour and not too many other fillers, like the Food For Life Rice Tortillas, but for years I was on the Metagenics Ultra Clear, Ultra Sustain, Ultra Inflamx cleanses and I could not tolerate them at all. The main ingredient was rice protein and...

ARCHIVED Seeking Gum-free Bread Recipe
Green12 replied to felineaids's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
felineaids, this is the info I found yesterday and forgot to put it with the recipe I posted: HOMEMADE SUBSTITUTE FOR BAKING POWDER 2 tbsp. cream of tartar 1 tbsp. baking soda 1 tbsp. cornstarch Sift together. Store in airtight container. One teaspoon of this is equal to 1 teaspoon store bought baking powder. You can try substituting the... -
ARCHIVED Fajita/tortilla Shells
Green12 replied to awesomeame's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I store my Food For Life Rice Tortillas in the fridge too. I left a package out on the counter one time and they curled up and got all dry. They are sensitive little suckers, each package for me has been inconsistent- sometimes they are light and flaky, sometimes they are dense and tough. And I agree, they are much easier to work with if you heat them... -
ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet?
Green12 replied to PreOptMegs's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I would also like to know where to get thorough information about what not to eat and what to eat when avoiding corn. I have been investigating corn allergies for several days now and I seem to have more questions than answers. -
Thank you aaascr for this information. I have been forever looking for a protein powder- can't do soy or whey, and rice isn't agreeing with me right now. Very interesting to hear about the hemp seed protein powder. I will look into that! I know megsylvan, isn't that a huge bummer? I have found a few products at my health food stores that are both...

Doh! Is there casein in butter? I totally did not know that.... -
ARCHIVED Mixmaster Dough Hooks?
Green12 replied to Janie Beast's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I really don't know about the dough hooks for the Kitchen Aid mixer specifically. I have used the dough hook attachment for my little ol' hand mixer and it has worked out great for beating the gluten free bread mix I have worked with. In fact, that is the only thing that will work for me with the bread mixes, the other standard mixer attachments are a disaster... -

Green12 replied to lorka150's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Bless your heart, this is a very limited list. This is the plainest recipe I could find (without spices, nuts, eggs, and etc.) It's for a corncake and maybe you can follow the basic structure and experiment with some substituting: 1 c. flour 1c cornmeal pinch of salt 1 tbsp baking powder 1 c. water 1/4 c. oil 1/4 c. maple syrup Preheat oven... -

Green12 replied to lorka150's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Hi felineaids, is this all you can eat or is this the list for acceptable ingredients only for making bread? Can you have other foods in addition to these items and if so what, like other grains, fruits and vegetables, liquids, fats/oils? I need more information to try to come up with something for you, maybe not bread, but something that is somewhat comforting... -
OMG! I am thinking eggs may have been all along another one of my problem foods but I had always attributed the some of this same symptomology to other foods.

Eating out is a huge concern, and fear, for not only celiacs who can't tolerate gluten, but for people with other specific food allergies and intolerances. There is no way in knowing what is in the food when eating out, or to guarantee that it is safe from allergens and cross contamination. You may think you are just going to get chicken and salad, but...

ARCHIVED Igg & Ige Food Panel
Green12 replied to Green12's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hey jenvan, you are always so friendly! And you have been extremely helpful, thank you! Do you happen to have the link to, or source of, where you were reading about the saliva test? I would be very interested in finding more information about this specific test. The tricky part for me is, I experience severe reactions - closing throat, anaphylactic...
