ARCHIVED Does Anyone Get Stressed About Their Diet
celiac3270 replied to Tutahl75's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Although it's probably difficult for a celiac to understand when you're in constant pain from the symptoms, my mom has said the same thing to me before. Besides, if I hadn't been getting sick, I never would've brought anything up with my doctor, who wouldn't have sent me to a GI and I wouldn't have been diagnosed in the first place. I might have found out... -
Perhaps....I tried to look up some information on it, but their nutritional info. only gives ingredients, not any measures they take to avoid contamination. Their allergen info. only refers to peanuts........if you want to call them, though, here is the contact information (no e-mail): Open Original Shared Link

ARCHIVED Random Daily Torture...
celiac3270 replied to sweetie101282's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I used to notice that when I ate a BIG NYC bagel every morning I'd be fine, but when I'd eat pizza, I'd get really sick a few hours later. They must do something to it, cause that always triggered STRONG reactions in me. I've found the best pizza "replacement" to be Chebe....you take the breadmix, make it into a crust, cook it a bit, then take it out... -
Completely normal.......you can go months or even a year without getting better and without making any mistakes and even that can be normal. A month surely isn't enough time for your body to heal. My dr. compared it to a train or some moving vehicle. Think of a car or train going at top speed -- that's like the celiac tearing up your body at topspeed....

ARCHIVED Random Daily Torture...
celiac3270 replied to sweetie101282's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I doubt that the professor was intentionally torturing you; just trying to be nice, as you said, but I know what you mean. The gluten-free diet isn't such a big deal if you're just eating a normal meal at home, provided you have found decent gluten-free foods. It is really frustrating and upsetting though, even for me having been doing this for close to... -
ARCHIVED Does Anyone Get Stressed About Their Diet
celiac3270 replied to Tutahl75's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think most of us get jealous . I'm in eighth grade now, but last year, at the end of 7th grade we had a class party type thing...we went bowling, but the food there was amazing. Pizza after pizza, fries, nuggets, chocolate chip cookies, marshmallows and hot chocolate sauce to dip them in, etc. I was only four months on the diet at the time and I felt... -
ARCHIVED Do You Drink Coca Cola?
celiac3270 replied to Sharon C.'s topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Coca-Cola is gluten-free and if you e-mail them, they'll send you a list of many of their gluten-free products by e-mail. ALL products by Pepsi are gluten-free......this includes their orange drinks or pepsi blue or whatever they make besides cola -
ARCHIVED Taco Shells ?
celiac3270 replied to whitelacegal's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I also use Oretga. I don't remember which one, but they have a gluten-free taco sauce, as well. -
ARCHIVED Mi-del Contaminated?
celiac3270 replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I haven't had issues with Mi-Del, either.....and I've had the arrowroot, ginger snap, choc. chip, and oreo-like cookies..........so a great variety and no contamination problems here. -
You can't delete a duplicate post on your own, but usually a moderator will see if the same thing is posted twice, will make a post that this topic will soon be deleted and nobody else should post there, and then will ask Scott (admin) to delete it. You're not supposed to post the same thing over and over because that's just spamming the boards or trying...

ARCHIVED Candies
celiac3270 replied to willamina's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Phewf....... thank you. I thought that they were, but I got scared when I read that since I had never called the company. I knew about Milky Ways and the dark chocolate. Thank you -
ARCHIVED Candies
celiac3270 replied to willamina's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I should mention, if someone knows, please send a PM or e-mail, as well.......I'm just going crazy to think that I might've screwed it up after 8 months of toiling to feel better -- I just can't be set back by an accident! Thanks......I've sent out e-mails to all the companies, already -
ARCHIVED Candies
celiac3270 replied to willamina's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
3 Musketeers aren't gluten-free? Can somebody please tell me if that is correct or not? I'm starting to panic!!!!!!!!!! -
I think everything's been answered except for your question about maltodextrin. In the United States, maltodextrin almost never contains gluten. It is usually made from corn in US products, though it is sometimes made with gluten-containing ingredients in other countries. You do need to be wary of maltodextrin in prescriptions, though, even in the US

I'm a New Yorker, but I 100% agree on the Bosox....this is their year....and you couldn't get a more perfect scenario than making a comeback to win four straight and take down the Yankees.......

ARCHIVED 5 Yr. Old Daughter, Possible Diagnosis
celiac3270 replied to maryliz's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
It's definitely too soon. I tested positive for celiac disease and I've been on the diet for eight months and I'm still not better. Give it at least 2-3 months in my opinion. Kristina's right; it usually takes longer than a week to see any results. -
ARCHIVED Is Maple Sugar Candy Gf?
celiac3270 replied to Donna F's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
two things........it depends on the facilities...it could be contaminated from other products, though I guess the chances of that are relatively slim. Second, you can never assume with these things......who knows if they add wheat or something. Is there a label you can consult or a number to call? Better to be safe than sorry. -

ARCHIVED Baby/ Child Diagnosed?
celiac3270 replied to azedazobollis's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hmm....there's bloodwork, which you mentioned. I think there's some sort of a Gene test, and then I think you can do a stool test, as well, but I'm not sure. There's the endoscopy and the colonoscopy, but those are both invasive. -
ARCHIVED Complex V. Simple Sugars
celiac3270 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm supposed to be avoiding large quantities of complex sugars, acidic foods, and gluten. Obviously, I've got the gluten part down, and it's not too difficult to realize that tomatoes and oranges are acidic . I've been trying to limit my sugar intake, though, and I'm wondering how, on a label, I can tell that the sugars are complex. On the nutrition part... -
ARCHIVED Is Equal Gf? (the Artificial Sweetener)

ARCHIVED Brach's Candy Corn
celiac3270 replied to Ruth's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Oooh....that's a real disappointment. I used to love candy corn and then I just.....stopped eating it for some reason. A few days ago I wondered if it was gluten-free. I, too, would love ot hear any gluten-free brands -
ARCHIVED What Is Your Best Gf Food Item You Have Found?
celiac3270 replied to Mom22's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
1. Chebe bread mix -- as a pizza crust and a bread 2. Everything by "Foods By George" -- eng. muffins, which I now eat with the regularlity I ate bagels before being diagnosed. Brownies, crumb cakes, muffins, a nice change. 3. There was a choc. chip cookie mix that was AMAZING, but I can't remember its name.....it'll come to me. -
ARCHIVED Enzymes....they Don't Make Me Feel Too Good
celiac3270 replied to celiac3270's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I got a reply from Global (thanks for the link, again ) They're gluten-free.... lol....Ms. celiac3270, but I guess I can see where they'd confuse it
