    Floridian, There is no way you can leave? I know you said the folks are in Florida, are they nearby? Is it pandemonium on the highways with the evacuation? Isn't there anywhere to go? Now I'm even more concerned for you. I will be tracking this as best I can on the computer. Were you able to get more foodstuff from the health food store...

    Nini, My mother would be another one that would say this diet is not necessary and we are overreacting due to this article if she saw it. My children and I have no obvious symptoms (yet). We caught this early thanks to my infant son. My oldest son does have mild malabsorption which we would have never known. My mom now thinks this diet will be...

    Sounds good. I just bought some premade crusts that were expensive but good. I think they were kinnikinnick.

    Good point. I had allergy testing done and found out I had an allergic reaction (IgG) to wheat, spelt, rye, gluten and gliadin for the gluten products. I was o.k. for barley and oats. Enterolab says I am intolerant to gluten. Soy allergic and intolerant. Dairy I have allergic reaction but am not intolerant. I didn't understand the difference until...

    Interesting article. I know that my infant son is extremely sensitive to ANY gluten that I ingest. He will break out with eczema. He's been eczema free since I cut out Rice Dream milk. I still have to do away with the gluten shampoo's ecetera. I plan on having him go through enterolab when he's old enough to get a sample from. I would be curious...

    Floridian, My thoughts and prayers are also with you. Rachel, I'd be leary of the hairspray. Hope this passes quickly.

    I don't remember exactly either. My parents were rv'ing and had crossed the bridge within a week of the earthquake. That was the Oakland bridge that was damaged wasn't it? They retired in 1991 and were traveling quite a bit at that time so maybe it was around that time. I think I would rather be right where I am (except I still like NE Washington...

    I just purchased some Food for Life rice tortillas. Haven't tried them yet but we do like their bread.

    Have you tried Almond, Hazelnut or Rice milks? I was using Rice Dream until we got our enterolab results. Since we are gluten intolerant I have quit drinking it. I don't like the Pacific Rice very well personally but many other do. Wait a month and try adding back in small quanitities of milk and see if he can tolerate it. It's challenging to find...

    ARCHIVED Casein

    AndreaB replied to CarlaB's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Carla, Sounds like you need to eliminate all dairy.

    I hope my post didn't scare you. The hurricane that hit Tampa was a long time ago. My grandma died about 15 years ago and it had been probably 10 years before that if not more. Didn't Tampa get some high winds last year. Citrus County...I assume because that's where the citrus is grown. I will also be watching the news on the computer, we don't...

    ARCHIVED Casein

    AndreaB replied to CarlaB's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Carla, You might want to try just Cheddar Cheese. With the aging process it goes through it does something to the cheese. Don't remember if it's the lactose or the casein though. Just looked that up...it's the lactose that's easier to handle. That makes things really difficult. We went of dairy and went on to soy. Since soy is as bad as gluten...

    Julie, You could always get a grain mill to grind your own flours. I have an inexpensive one that goes with my champion juicer but it doesn't do well with beans (which between my hubby and I, we are allergic to 4). I need to consider whether to get a better on. Also the one I have I ground wheat in and need to try and take apart to see how well...
  14. AndreaB
    I seem to have a mild allergy to all dairy except cheddar cheese. Don't know why that is, maybe because of the aging. I have added butter back into my diet though and will be using nonfat milk powder in recipes that call for it. Thinking this allergy (hoping) will go away since I'm on the gluten free diet now. I'm also allergic to goats milk but I didn...

    As far as protein...can you do nuts? What about beef jerky or something like that. I haven't eaten those for quite a long time and don't remember what goes into them. I realize they are more than likely a no go. Also what about snap peas for a raw veggie? You could live off of fruit and veggies along with water for a week. Certainly wouldn...
  16. AndreaB
    You probably could eat any veggie raw, we just aren't used to it. I would think any veggie except lettuce would last unrefrigerated for a week. Buy avocados green, carrots, celery, turnips, kohlrabi, broccoli, cauliflower. Most of this stuff is usually cold. Look for the stuff that's in the middle of the produce section. What about grapefruit and other...
  17. AndreaB
    Plain frozen veggies with nothing added except maybe salt shouldn't be a problem.

    Floridian, Can you do canned salmon? Sardines? Anything like that. Can you do canned fruit in fruit juice? Fresh fruit like apples and oranges would last a week. What about tomatoes. Of course make sure you have lots of drinking water. We don't have much of a threat with that. Mt St Helens is nearby but not a threat to our location (except...

    Enterolab has stool tests. We had our family done. Listed results in the signature. We really like them.

    Did the doctor think there had been any healing at all? I know this takes time. Also, does he eat any soy products? I have read that soy damages the intestines as much as gluten. Just a thought. A lot of people have problems with dairy until their intestines have healed also. If he eats soy give that up and see if his occasional problems go away....
  21. AndreaB
    I'm sorry Floridian. Hopefully this won't have you down long. Have you tried Pacific free range or organic chicken broth? They are gluten free, but you'd need to check the other ingredients. The free range ingredients are Organic chicken broth (filtered water, organic chicken), organic chicken flavor, (organic chicken flavor, sea salt), natural chicken...

    Matilda, I love your picture of your kitties! They don't have fresh baked bread. They do carry Enjoy Life, Food for Life and Ener-G breads that I saw. The have lots of mixes for bread and treats. I bought the Enjoy Life cookies. Expensive but yum! Wild Oats also carries some of the enjoy life stuff. Cookie flavors that Lingonberries didn...

    Oops! Got the store name wrong. It's Lingonberries Market. 6300 NE 117th Ave Suite B-5, Vancouver WA 98662. 360-260-4411. www.lingonberriesmarket.com.
  24. AndreaB
    Lingonberries Market is in Vancouver. It is just over the border into Washington. It is only about 15 miles from the Rose Garden exit. Take I-5 north to exit 2 I think. You'd be looking for highway 500 east. Take that highway about 6 miles, you will cross over I205. The light where 500 meets with 503 is 117th. Go through the light and the store is...

    He sells a little faucet with it that connects to the cold water line under the sink. He includes all the parts unless you need a bigger or smaller size connector. Don't remember what it is called. We have a three stage because that is what we need for where we are. He sells one, two or three stage. The water is fabulous. Now I can give the baby some...
