    ARCHIVED Dr Said Not To Eliminate Gluten

    Tell your sister to fire this jackass doctor who is telling her to deliberately harm her child.
  2. You have this exactly right. They should be fine, and if they aren't then you've done them a favor by letting them find out that some food was damaging them.
  3. It sounds as if they don't dissolve. What are they?
  4. one with vowels?
  5. Just don't run to Utah. Tis not a place for comfort quaffs.
  6. Like the secret ways to hide gluten in foods? Can I be "natural flavors from foreign countries"?
  7. greeting dance step?
  8. mmm yes. You need to stock up in Colorado before you get there.
  9. I traveled in Spain last summer and had no problems at all.
  10. a phoenix breathing fire and burning up wheat stalks?
  11. I didn't mean for that to sound snippy. I was studying for finals and not very wordy. There's no reason why you should ever think about what drs inject into you (well, okay, there are lots of reasons, but anyway). Most questions of that type (gluten in an injection) only come up on places like this forum, and only when it's suddenly relevant to someone...
  12. Think of how your immune system works. You get exposed to something, you make a bunch of cells that recognize that something and attack it. After the threat is gone, most of the cells die, but a few live on to be prepared for another attack. The longer you go without being exposed to that something, the fewer cells remain. Fewer cells mean less of a chance...
  13. Fun should always be the goal. Even making it as far as you did is amazing. Those kids are amazing (as is the parental chaperon).
  14. Sounds like what happens right before your colonoscopy....
  15. corn syrup? soy? red dye number 43? stupid food issues
  16. Someone could start an awesome business shipping us gluten-free Canadian versions of things, and shipping them Northern Folk gluten-free versions of our foods. So curious about the ingredients.
  17. I still react immediately, but the reaction is very mild and doesn't last long. I don't eat a lot of processed food and only eat out at places I've confirmed as safe so I rarely get exposed to anything.
  18. dextrose and lactose are not proteins. The question about topical gluten is a hot one. I think technically (as far as we understand the science of skin) gluten can't be absorbed into the skin. HOWEVER so many people report issues with topical gluten that it can't be dismissed. Bottom line - if you react to it, don't use it. There's no better explanation...
  19. You'll be delighted when it's over.
  20. for the northwest, but I'm sure you can make it go down the coast. Open Original Shared Link Wonder how many of my Asian classmates will miss the test today. Hope all their families are okay.
  21. they don't inject gluten. injecting a non-blood-based protein into a person's bloodstream would be harmful to anyone.
  22. woot!! anuther critter in the pack!
  23. oooooo which one is gonna be the 'love nest' decked out with a pink heart-shaped bed and the ho' tub right in the room?
  24. I've never had a problem, and it has an auto shutoff after 12 or 14 hours so I really don't worry.
