  1. No specific examples, Richard.....I was just going by the book, so to speak...
  2. Yea...they're probably sometimes good, as long as they don't get too abundant. I think similar posts are most valuable when it comes to reassuring someone or sympthizing with or helping a newbie w/ general gluten-free resources. After all, we all do it differently. I do think, though, that if two or three people say a product is gluten-free, a fourth and...
  3. Wow! I'm so sorry they were so rude, insensitive, and downright disrespectful. Feel better soon!
  4. Another article: Thousands of runners at the start of the London marathon yesterday. Picture: EPA Relief all round after Paula pauses on road to glory JOHN INNES FOR 15 terrible seconds it looked like the curse of Athens had struck again. With just four miles to go to the end of the London marathon, Paula Radcliffe pulled up and stopped at...
  5. Yea...okay, I'll leave it, cause the 1st half of it is about celiac disease

    Are you referring to gluten as poison? Or actual poison? Just asking, cause you referred to your neighbor and I don't know if this neighbor is celiac or not.....
  7. Some can't tolerate dairy in the beginning (when starting the diet), but after the intestines heal, are fine with it. I never had a problem with it.
  8. I've tried only the Rice and Shine and the choc. chip cookies. The rice and shine is pretty similar to regular farina--I make it with milk instead of water and it's sometimes better w/ a little sugar on top. The choc. chip cookies are great--just make sure, when you buy their products, that you get the gluten-free ones, since they also make regular, non...
  9. Eiew....I use regular sugar whenever possible, anyway, and have never used Stevia, but I don't think I will in the future. If you can use it (and aren't diabetic, for example), I think you're better off with plain old sugar.
  10. You'd probably be better off if your kids had a formal diagnosis--otherwise, if they're eating gluten-free without knowing for sure, they might regret the limitations of the diet, feel fine, and therefore wonder what the whole point of it is. If you have a formal diagnosis, then regardless of what symptoms they have (or absence thereof), they know they really...
  11. Yes -- definitely gluten-free -- and about ten recipes on this site call for canola oil.
  12. Hey, I just noticed this thread is under coping with......should I move it to Gab?
  13. Most doctors will recommend about three months of a normal, gluten containing diet for positive results. Of course, a few days of gluten-free sprinkled in there won't really effect the results, either. I believe that 20 months is too young for testing, anyway. I think you are supposed to wait until some age like 3 years? Someone can give a more accurate...
  14. Papertowels, napkins, tissues, and the like, are fine.....the only reason for concern would be if they were, say: Kleenex tissues with some sort of lotion in them, etc. But the fact that you asked such a question is a good sign--that you're being really careful/diligent about this.
  15. I haven't had problems with their Rice and Shine....or choc. chip cookie mix
  16. Flavorings and colorings are all questionable. Sometime safe, sometimes not, you just need to call the company. Dextrin is often made of corn, but it can be made of wheat. Maltodextrin is always safe IN THE UNITED STATES except in pharmeceuticals where it becomes questionable. Modified food starch is questionable--it could be gluten-free, it might...
  17. I've seen cookies in a healthfood store that say "GLUTEN FREE" on them. They were "Oatmeal raisin" cookies, and, wondering what substitute they used for the oat, I read the ingredients.....first ingredient, I think, was oats. I didn't eat any or even buy them, but it shows how careful you have to be. Sure, uncontaminated oats aren't bad, but I'd bet the...
  18. The ones I know are gluten-free are: Stevia, Splenda, Natrataste, Sweetnlow, and Equal. Try to avoid Splenda, as it causes gastro. symptoms in many people (celiac or not) ...not that Equal or Sweet n low are good either, but they're not as likely to cause symptoms as Splenda.
  19. DNP International to distribute Shugr Apr 22,2005-Shugr is made from sugars that occur naturally in such good-tasting, healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables, corn and dairy products. 22/04/05 Health Sciences Group, Inc., provider of innovative nutritional products and functional food ingredients derived from natural sources, has announced that...
  20. Here's are two gluten-free foodlists/medlists...not always 100% reliable, though, so still contact: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link I would highly recommend you go to Open Original Shared Link ....they have an amazing, constantly updated, reliable gluten-free product listing (with all the foods, medications, even toothpastes...
  21. Yes...I've always kept mine so that I don't log in each time (w/ the remember me option)......so much easier than logging in and out all the time. And yes....so many guests on all the time...just a random sample might give you....22 guests, 6 members or something.... my point is, always more guests than members.
