I have seen that people have done gluten tests on some of the sorghum flour sold in the Asian shops and it does NOT pass the gluten test. Whilst the flour itself is gluten free obviously the method/manufacture process is not.
Does anyone know of sorghum sold in the UK that is actually guaranteed to be gluten free? Just thought I should warn people if they are coeliacs and relying on using the flour from the ethnic shops See more of this discussion:Re: Sorghum and Garfava flour in the UK

Hi Rendi, here's a recipe that might work for your daughter. I grind the grain and nuts in my high-powered blender. If you don't have one, you can probably use a food processor.
Millet Muffins yield app. 1 dozen 1 cup coconut or nut meal / flour 1 cup millet flour 2 tsp baking powder, gf 1 tsp sea salt 1/2 tsp baking soda blend above together in bowl. (I make the entire batter in my blender. I put all dry ingredients in and pulse until flour consistency. Then I add the wet, blend everything together and pour the batter right into the muffin tins.) 3 -4 egg yolks ( I use 2 whole eggs. You can try substituting arrowroot or flax meal mixed with water as an egg replacement, but I haven't tried that yet.) 3 tbsp pure maple syrup 2/3 cup almond milk or coconut milk mixed with 1/2 tsp raw apple cider vinegar 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil or grapeseed oil 1/2 cup grated carrot, zucchini or yellow squash (optional) or 1/2 cup applesauce or fruit or veggie puree Mix wet ingredients in large bowl. Add dry mix. Stir. Scoop into paper-lined muffin tins. Bake in a preheated oven 375 for about 15 -20 minutes or until tops are nicely browned an a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from pans and cool. See more of this discussion:Re Millet Bread Recipe

I have to agree. Am newly officially diagnosed although have suffered for many years. It's great to have a diagnosis after so many years, gp's at times make you feel like you are wasting their time so you just don't go back.
Just like you if I have cheese I have a raction within an hour. Same sadly with chocolate, I thought it was just me so am glad you have mentioned this. Will now also keep this off my growing list of no-no's. Good luck See more of this discussion:Re: What you must not eat

| Re: rash on chin | Posted by Misty on 2010-03-01 (message id=4690 ) |

I have been getting this clusterlike rash on my chin maybe twice a year for the past 3 years. Before anything is visible, it will itch extremely bad. I will wake up with this gross cluster of clear fluid filled bubbles. I went to my dermatologist 2 years ago and he said that he thought it was a fever blister. Me and all immediate family members have never had a single fever blister ever. I did however have a Hepatic Adenoma that erupted and blew out half of my liver 4 years ago. The reason I'm telling you this is because of the massive amount of blood I received before my operation. My dermatologist said that I possibly could have gotten some infected blood during my transfusion. That blew my mind...to think I have gone all my life without fever blisters and wham, all of the sudden now!
Each time I get one of these on my chin, I treat it as a cold sore. I have taken Valtrex and tried every remedy out there on the web! They ooze, then crust over and shrink up. What else could they be? They are so embarassing See more of this discussion:Re: rash on chin

Well I don't eat a whole lot, I ate once a day for years, but when I started working out I found I was hungry more often so I started having a banana in the morning for awhile, I started having cramps and bloating up and couldn't understand why. I was eating things i'm allowed to eat what is going on, then one day I had a banana and with in 10 min. I started having cramps and then it just clicked, bananas.Do you have any thoughts on why that might be

I have recently been diagnosed with celiac disease. I have been overweight for most of my adult life and havn't been able to explain it. I have suffered with severe constipation, severe hair thinning, itchy skin, bloating and stomache cramps. Since going gluten free these have stopped. My doctor started me on calcium tabs with vit d in them and had sever wind/cramps that lasted about 12 hrs. I didn't take them the next day and was fine. After taking them again and getting the same symptoms i looked at the list of ingredients and maltodextrin was listed. I have now noticed that anything containing maltodextrin has the same effects. I have read on the internet that maltodextrin sourced in the EU is probably made from wheat whereas in the USA it is made from corn, potato or rice.http://celiacdisease.about.com/od/faqs/f/Maltodextrin.htm

I had it so bad it looked like i had second or third degree burns on my face, it was very itchy and painful. i was in and out of the doctor and no one could tell me what it was... i used so many different prescription cream and nothing seemes to work. fianlly my doctor suggested washing my face with selsum blue ( dandruff shampoo) i did this every morning for a week and it work! I have never had it again as bad as that time but once in a while i will get it. And it seems to be when i am under alot of stress

Roley's have stopped importing it I gather because of the value of the £/euro. Waitrose have 'suspended' it from their list which I gather means it is not a permanent withdrawal.

the only way to improve mood swings is to avoid 100\% gluten containing foods.
i suffer terribly when i have even the smallest amount so i think im hyper sensative. it always helps to have people around that are supportive when an alllergy reaction occurs. dealing with it alone is hard to cope with. See more of this discussion:14 yr old

| KIDNEYS? What you can eat on a gluten-free diet | Posted by Humberto on 2010-02-06 (message id=4654 ) |
|
Hi There,
After a couple of months of serious illness that happily ended with my gluten intake, last year I discovered that I am celiac. The learning process was hard and I kept poisoning myself, but after a couple of months of trial-and-error and reading useful websites like this (thank you!) I managed to keep 100\% gluten-free. I am doing quite well now, feel 10 years younger, and do not miss any gluten-based food. However, two weeks ago I prepared lamb kidneys and, surprisingly, managed to poison myself with gluten. The symptoms were unequivocal and I am 100\% sure that did not eat gluten from other sources as I cooked everything at home. Apart from the kidneys everything was “food as usual”. I washed the kidneys well and removed the inner bits as required, but suspect that there were traces of lamb urine (sorry if this sounds disgusting). Would it be possible that this urine contained some gluten from the animal food? What are the risks of eating gluten from offal? Thank you for your answer!

I searched for a dietary cause for my severe migraines and discovered that a wheat free diet meant no more migraines for me.
I now know that I am coeliac as my IBS also stopped and a blistery rash I would often get on my buttocks also disappeared. I believe this is called DH. For the last twenty years I have followed a gluten free diet and been well. Many doctors in my experience do not connect CD to Migraine See more of this discussion:Re: MIGRAINE

Has anyone suggested to you that you may have Lyme disease? It is worth looking into. Don't be put off by doctors who are not familiar with Lyme. I don't know what area of the country you live in, but someone with Lyme needs to see a dr. who specializes in it, and I don't mean an infectious disease dr. The tests for Lyme are often negative when the person actually has it. Do you ever, or have you ever, had any rash or rashes? Do you know of a tick bite before you got sick? If not, don't let that put you off the possibility of Lyme as about half the people with Lyme disease don't remember a tick bite, and only about 30 percent of Lyme patients get a rash. It's a helpful tip, tho, if you have had the rash. So you must find a dr. who knows the specialty tests that will tell you for sure if you have Lyme disease or one who will make a clinical diagnoses based on symptoms, and you do have the symptoms. Treatment is an extended treatment of antibiotics. And not all antibiotics work for each case, as there are diffferent strains of Lyme that respond to different antibiotics, and it is sometimes a trial and error thing of getting the right meds. I am familiar with Lyme as my whole family has had it, and it can get very serious if not treated. My oldest daughter had untreated Lyme for 8years, and she was very sick and it took about 4 years of treatment for her to get over it. Many people if not treated early can suffer from it for a lifetime. Get on the internet and find out about Lyme. Go to www.lyme.org or www.lymenet.org. There are many other websites out there also. Good luck

I too have gotten to the point where I can not move with out my whole entire body aching in pain.....symptoms of Fibromyalgia just like with what happens with Aspartame. I am going to stop using Splenda and see if my symptoms go away. Every muscle in my body aches and I truly think its the Splenda. A couple of months ago I ran out and was using regular sugar for about 3 weeks and looking back now.....I realize that my symptoms were not as bad and my depression lifted considerably. Lets face it.......we keep hoping for the perfect replacements for REAL foods and its just not gonna happen. If its not REAL FOOD than its not good for us

Hi, My daughter was diagnosed with RA but she did a food elimination diet and was much improved. However, due to a lot of weightloss she now is eating all the foods she shouldn't. My question is, did anybody actually feel worse before feeling better when eliminating gluten. I seem to remember that when she first eliminated gluten she was in so much pain but then it went away.
Any help would be gratefully received, plus help with other foods to eliminate such as aspartame. See more of this discussion:Re: Gluten intolerance and Pain

Reply to Catherine 9th jan
The ultimate test is that you are returning to being fit and healthy on a gluten-free and dairy-free diet. When the response is so clear cut there is little reason to take gluten again, as the results of a subsequent test can be inconclusive, and your response to larger amounts of gluten may be much more severe than you have had before. You could stick completely to the new diet for a couple of months, and review the situation then. If your health continues to improve then stick with the diet! Ultimately it is your decision what you do. You know your symptoms better than the doctor. Listen to their advice, but make up your own mind See more of this discussion:The Coeliac Condition

We booked with Inghams, and stayed in one of their snow houses. We were very pleased with the quality of the accommodation and the gluten-free breakfast. Gluten free Schar roles, jam, a selection of cheese and wurst.
Eating out in Mayrhofen is easy, but we are a little restricted by our gluten-free diet. Our highest recommendation is the Grillkuchl, A-6290 Mayrhofen. They took the trouble to understand our dietary requirements, served two meals between three of us, and hot water without charging for it. Thankyou for some excellent meals. The Kramerwirt Hotel also served excellent food with some low price options, and served hot water without charge. Again thankyou for an excellent meal. The restaurant Edelwiess served us our hot water to drink - but then charged us 4.2 Euros for two cups of hot water. Very big black mark there! We sat down in the Neue Post Hotel, 400 Hauptstrasse Mayrhofen, but the non smoking part of the restaurant was very smokey, and they wouldn't serve tap water with a meal, hot or cold, so we walked out. I do take a laminated card with my dietary requirements in English and German See more of this discussion:Austria Mayrhofen eating out

| Malaysia and Singapore - Help | Posted by Mary on 2010-01-09 (message id=4584 ) |
|
Hi there - i promised the NZ Coeliac society some feedback as they had limited info for me - here is my input.
As promised I have done a bit of research about eating in Singapore. Being gluten free in Singapore causes some problems when you want to eat out cheaply at the local food centres or Hawker markets as they are called. Cheap meals are abundant at these Hawker centres Singaporean style food halls usually around $3.50 $5.50. These are popular places for locals and visitors to eat. They are also everywhere some catering more for the locals than visitors but both have their good points. Unfortunately they are predominantly Chinese cuisine so soy, oyster or fish sauce and wheat are in almost everything. You can sometimes find Indian, Thai or other Asian foods here too. Luckily, for me, my husband was able to ask the Chinese language teacher if she could write something for me to show at the hawker centres. This has been a blessing on a few occasions when I have been stuck, even at the local where I have my chicken rice order understood, it helped them understand. They looked at the note and nodded away and then it was great. Showed it to a Malaysian waitress once by mistake did not work, but she found the Chinese employees. What it can also do is get you talking to the right person a chef or waitress/waiter who has better English or understands ingredients. I have a laminated copy of this note permanently in my wallet unfortunately the sharp edges of the cut lamination cut through a Singapore $10 note this is now invalid tender! Small price to pay for being able to eat more. Have attached a scan of it for you. Other advice would be to say that you get very sick if you eat gluten the very sick part is understood. If you say what you can eat e.g. I can eat, vegetables, meat, garlic, oil, sugar, rice and rice noodles then the no soy or sauces it can help. You can get a fried rice meal or an omelette in this manner that is GF. It is hopeless to ask what is in different dishes as they dont always understand you and they will say yes or no to anything. If in doubt move to another stall holder. The English of the food hawker stall operators can be limited. If you say no wheat or wheat flour they may well respond with No, its plain flour. Chicken Rice a special Singaporean dish is often at Hawkers I tend to ask for chicken and plain rice, though the special chicken rice tastes superb, I have been upset by some of these meals so there may well be traces of soy sauce or powdered stock in the liquid / flavouring in the cooking process of that special rice. I have got into the habit of saying plain chicken, plain rice and no sauce- no soy, oyster or fish. If I have greens to go with it I say the same thing or just steamed vegetables no sauce or soy sauce. Having said that now that I have been once or twice to local hawker centres they know and say it to me to confirm the order! Great to go back to the same places! Indian food is usually safe and the Indian stall holders English is often better than the Chinese. Little India, an area in Singapore, has a large number of restaurants serving yummy food at good prices. My advice is to try a dosa or dosah it can be called. These are like a large thin pancake and can be stuffed with a filling or plain. They come with dipping sauces/chutneys usually a coconut, chilli or tomato and dhal. The dosa is made out of fermented rice and millet. They are good for those who like mild to no heat and all GF. The Lau Pa Sat food hall a huge Hawker centre, at the Cross St, Robinson Rd and Shenton Way intersection has an outstanding selection of Indian restaurants/stalls to choose from. There are many restaurants that have more of the western cuisine though these are often expensive, definitely more expensive than in NZ. I still here say no sauces unless it is abundantly clear that the person understands the gluten thing well. Once again going to local or returning to restaurants that cater for your needs is a great way to ease the difficulties. Having said all that there is a very reasonably priced steak and seafood restaurant handy that i sa nice change from spices. Supermarkets have a few items. Some franchises more than others. You do have to look around everywhere they dont seem to have quite the same order to them as other grocery stores. Cold Storage has a number of gluten free items such as corn-thins and a range of products from Orgran and other brands. Check the health sections of the stores. Fair Price has a few items but less than Cold Storage. I believe Giant has GF as well. I say buy when you see (it may not be there next time you go!) and keep a supply of snack foods you can throw in your bag for when you get stuck and you do! You can bring any food you want into Singapore so do bring essentials. Im bringing back GF flour and tamari sauce! There are areas of Singapore that are populated more by ex-pats, Europeans Holland village is one of them. These places tend to have more western food alternatives and more GF products in the supermarkets. A handy snack is tapioca chips that are cheap - look a bit like potato chips, which are dear here. They are a harder in substance than potato chips so more chews per chip, but they are a great snack and often found in market place areas. These are far better, in my opinion than the light fluffy tapioca chips that look like polystyrene and melt into nothing. Fruit and vege are not as yummy and fresh as NZs so be prepared. Bananas are a great stand by and always less than $2 per kg. So be prepared for a bit of an adventure (have your own supply for a day or 2 while you sort out places) if you dont want to eat expensively. You can certainly eat in the more expensive restaurants. Hawkers and Little India offer a variety of reasonably priced and tasty meals. You also mix with the locals which is great. Id suggest if you are here for a few days find a good hawker centre and frequent it or head to Little Indian. Now that we have settled here and the local food outlet operators understand my dietry needs meaning that I can eat a variety of cheap meals with everyone else. We are also getting to know more and more suitable hawkers centres to eat at. Friends and acquaintances are always on the look out for me even shared some GF liquorice with me. I am happy to answer any further queries from any one. I found it quite disheartening initially trying to find food I could eat and not being understood by the stall holders so if I can minimise other peoples frustration I am only too happy to. Have a Chinese note written with you it makes things easier! happy to help anyone travelling here as i know how hard it can be. Cheers Mary See more of this discussion:Malaysia and Singapore - Help

I have been diagnosed with gluten sensitivity. I am finding it very hard.I hate the stores and am having a hard time to take the time to read labels. I basicly eat vegetables and salads and I am getting tired of them. Financially it is hard cause I hate to spend money on myself and justifying the difference in what I eat and my family eats is hard for me and my family likes the way they eat now. we've never eaten alot of junk per say, but we like our pasta! And the gluten free stuff is expensive. At least in Canada it is. I would love any input

Hi Peter,
I came accross you answering questions on another site and wondered if you can answer mine. I've been worn out tired all the time, for five years. I saw the doctor and she couldn't help. Then two years ago I developed aching hands and feet, no sleep...waking all night thirsty and would drink at least a pint of water overnight, my feet turned purple if I stood still for ten minutes, food made me nausious, I became alergic to everything including perfume I'd used for years, synus problems etc. By the summer of this year I felt I was going mad and saw the doctor again, she couldn't help. I've since seen two nutritionists who have both come up with the same results of no grain and no dairy. I felt fantastic after 3 days, I couldnt believe it! I found it really difficult to stick to the diet, especially when staying with friends, but each time I had things on the naughty list, my symptoms started to return. Going on the celiac site, I've done things the wrong way around to be diagnosed and have read I have to go back to my old way of eating for six weeks to test positive. To me this seems like madness, what should I do? Many thanks Catherine See more of this discussion:The Coeliac Condition

There is quite a high possibility that all your problems have a single cause. They can all be the result of an intolerance to gluten, and the adverse reactions to soy and milk are typical of this as well. It is very important that you have the blood tests before you start as gluten-free diet, but as soon as these are done you could start a gluten-free diet - it must be completely gluten-free to be effective. The tests may be negative, but you may still find the gluten-free diet very effective. There is another condition called the 'leaky gut syndrome' which can also produce this typical range of symptoms. It is partly the result of too much fine grains of food being absorbed by the gut lining without proper digestion, and causing inflammation and autoimmune response throughout the body. Avoid products made from fine flour when you try the GF diet. Eat potato, rice, quinoa, sweetcorn rather than GF bread, cake and biscuits See more of this discussion:Gluten intolerance

I have had ulcerative colitis for 15 years and suspect a gluten intolerance/allergy. I do't know that I have ever been tested for it, but I also wonder whether a gluten sensitivity is the underlying cause for my colitis (and other autoimmune problems--thyroid, skin, ankylosing spondylitis/arthrits). I plan tp request a blood test at my next dr appt. I am thinking of trying the GF diet myself to see if it helps. Although I would be relieved to kno0w the cause and have hope for improvement, it would also be frustrating since I have had a total colectomy (removed entire large intestine and part of the ileum), I had an ileostomy bag for one year, and a J-puch reconstruct. All of these surgeries are in addition to years of pain and low quality of life, many hospitalizations with flare ups. If it does turn out to be gluten--I know I will wish I had known years ago and could get those years back (I have 3 young children). Good luck! I am interested to hear more

I am checking out info on the web about celiac disease. I have never been tested but plan to ask my doc to do this. I have had ulcerative colitis/crohn's disease, thyroid diseas (Graves), losing skin pigment in symmetrical pattern all over the body (vitiligo) and I have just recently been diagnosed with ankylosing spondyltis (type of arthritis). Doctors have also suspected Lyme's disease and I was told that I probably have fibromyalgia as well. My endocrinologist has concerns about persistent vitamin deficiencies that show up in my bloodwork, but my colon doc says that it is probably just a poor diet... I am wondering is it possible that I actually may have celiac disease or gluten intolerance that is an uderlying cause of all my autoimmune problems? Is it possible that I have not ever been tested? I find it hard to believe that my doctors may not have ever tested me for this prior to all of my intestinal surgeries, etc (including the total removal of my large intestine, an ileostomy bag and J-puch reconstruction). WOuld be great if I could feel better through a gluten-free diet and I am considering just trying it on my own, but I am not sure if there is a reason to get a diagnosis first... ANy guidance or advice would be appreciated. I am 35 and have 3 children but most days I feel like I am in my 80s. SOunds like many can relate to this feeling unfortunately

There's a lab that does good work with celiac testing - www.enterolab.com
My daughter has CD. At age 14, she had her first grand-mal seizure and another one 3 weeks after the first. We took her off gluten (made our household entirely gluten-free) and she had no seizures for 4 years - until she went to college. She roomed in an apartment on campus with 4 girls - sharing a kitchen. We believe the cross-contamination caused another seizure because we subsequently moved her into her own place and she's been good for the past year. She's never been on any medication. The neurologist believes she has a very low tolerance threshold for gluten. It is easy enough to get the testing and try the diet. I think the stool tests are most sensitive and its easy to verify the presence of the HLA DQ2 and or HLA DQ8 gene - a simple swab of the inside of the cheek. In my experience, most physicians know very little about CD. They still think it presents as only a digestive disorder and that very few people have the disease. Dr. Fassano has done some really good research and wrote a good article in the August 2009 Scientific American magazine. Also, the book "Dangerous Grains" is a very good read. I think gluten induced seizures are much more common than people think and in the near future - the medical community is going to FINALLY figure this out and get these children off these dangerous medications and put them on gluten free diets See more of this discussion:epilepsy, seizures and gluten

Just arriving at these same conclusions....doing bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.....hormones drive the bus, so it seems. If we are out of progesterone and estrogen, adrenal glands work 'overtime' and CAN also cause the glucose intolerance. MSG, chocolate, coffee, wine (sulfites), and heaven only knows what else....my episodes can last 3 days....if I eat chocolate the day after an episode stops, I don't have symptoms....it builds up, as you are suggesting.....7 days, 10 days, and then the Afib starts...body seems to then 'detox' during the episode and then all is quiet..until cycle starts up all over again.

Recently I had been having to run to the loo after every meal and then had a bleed after stomach pain on one occasion. Dr sent me for a colonoscopy as the symptoms matched bowel cancer. But fortunately nothing was found. My daughter is a nurse and she suggested I could be intolerant to something. So I went wheat free for 10 days. What an amazing change. No more running to the loo, and the painful tummy is now only slightly tender. I also noticed that the hot flushes have stopped. I had got used to them as I am a woman of 58 and have been putting up with them for more than 10 years. My Dr is now going to do a blood test to prove that we've found the solution. I found that gluten free stuff at the supermarkets is dearer and high in fats and sugar which is annoying. Thanks for all the info. Good luck with your new diet everyone

I guess if you've had the disease and the gluten free works then it must have something to do with it don't you think. My sister has UC, she went gluten free and potato free and she hasn't felt better in the past 3 years. My brother also got it and he refused to go gluten free and he almost died from a hemorage from his bowel that burst from the disease and now has a bag for the rest of his life. So hey if it's working then go for it. I swear it saved her from what my brother went through and he got it after her. Putting steroids into your body until you puff up like a balloon with blisters weeping from your face or changing your eating habits and live normally. Hmmmm that's a hard one.....not

GLUTEN FREE FAIRY/BUTTERFLY CAKES
Ingredients: 100g butter/spread 100g caster sugar 2 eggs separated 100g Doves Farm Gluten & Wheat Free Self-raising flour 1 tablespoon of lemon juice 1 tablespoon of boiling water Method: Pre-heat the oven to 180C/355F (fan oven 160C/310F) or Gas Mark 4. Cream the butter and sugar together with a folk, add the egg yolks (keeping the egg whites in a separate bowl for whisking later) then slowly add all the flour bit by bit mixing well with a wooden spoon, mixture will feel quite stiff. Now add the tablespoon (or splash) of boiling water and the lemon juice, this will soften the mixture Meanwhile, now whisk up the egg whites until mixture will stand in peaks,and add egg mixture to cake mixture and mix in well. Place approx. 15 baking cases on a bun oven tray, putting approx. a dessertspoon of cake mixture in each baking case. Place cakes in pre-heated oven for 15 20 mins until golden. Place cakes on a rack to cool. Cakes are tasty and can be eaten plain or for butterfly cakes Please note that this is the first time I have measured the ingredients, you may want to use a little less sugar or add another egg to make them lighter. I havent tried to make a Victoria sandwich cake yet. I got the idea for this recipe from an old magazine for a normal coffee & walnut cake, where they whisked the egg whites separate. ________________________________________________________________ RECIPE FOR GLUTEN FREE MOUTH MELTING SCOTTISH BUTTER SHORTBREAD Ingredients; Gluten-free Flour - 4 ounces/113g (I use Doves Farm Gluten free plain flour but I am told Glutafin Pastry works well as it has less raising agents). Butter (softened) 6 ounces/170g Cornflour - 2 ounces /57g Icing sugar - 2 ounces/57g Caster sugar for dusting. Method: Pre-heat the oven to 180C/355F (fan oven 160C/310F) or Gas Mark 4. Cream together the butter and sugar until nice and fluffy add the cornflour then finally the gluten free flour.. Mix together then finally kneed with your fingers until mixture comes away from the bowl Half the mixture in two and kneed onto 2 lightly greased round cake tins using your knuckles to spread shortbread mixture out leave about a centimetre from the edge of tins to let shortbread expand,,, use your thumb and for-finger to make shortbread petticoat edge, prick all over with a fork to let the air out and put in oven and bake until golden Once out the oven, leave for a few minutes to cool, then cut/mark with a knife then sprinkle the shortbread with caster suger.. dont leave to cool for too long before cutting or shortbread will just crumble!!! To get them off cake tins, turn onto a clean dish towel upside down, in your other hand hold a couple of pieces of doubled up kitchen roll to swap shortbread onto, place both pettiecoat tails on a wire rack to cool And enjoy :o) These 2 recipies I made for my late mother who had celiacs disease, I stood in a supermarket Q with her one day and they couldn't find a code for 6 tiny wee muffins, mum needed to go to the ladies room so we could not wait.. so next day I baked from my heart and it worked...

Hi there,
I am thinking of buying a bread maker for my son for Christmas as he is trying to eat whole foods and organics. He loves bread but is trying to stay off of yeast. Do you have gluten free and yeast free recipes that can be made in a bread maker? Also, is one bread maker just as good as another do you know?? I know if he makes it fresh he will love it and he is getting pretty creative for a 19 year old boy. Thanks for your help in advance. Please put yeast free bread recipe in the headline so that I know it is not spam. Have a good day. Beth See more of this discussion:Re gf bread using breadmaker

Thanks for recipe. In relation to an alternative to suet, I use butter. You need to freeze it first and grate it quickly to avoid it melting in your hands. It gives a lighter texture and a good flavor. I am not sure whether it loses some shelf life as a result of dispensing with the suet. I usually make my puddings about 5/6 weeks in advance

I am wondering what good for my son I have been doing. There's no gluten in his diet, but his father will still take him out for pizza and fries. I am good with all the foods I give to him, with the exception to his dad. For five days now I can say I know exactly what he's eating there was no gluten. Before that it's been two weeks of foods without. My question is how long untill I know he's free in his system. Also this something I just tried because he has ezcema and wanted to find out if it was gluten.

| Blood test alone diagnosis | Posted by Michele on 2009-11-24 (message id=4525 ) |

Hi,
I had the same blood test as you, with the same result ,and have since had a biopsy of the lower intestine too. The biopsy is complete confirmation for a coeliac as they can see under a microscope any damage done to the villi, caused by coeliac disease. As I am still waiting for my results, I asked the doctor who did the biopsy how accurate the blood test for coeliac is, (in the hope that maybe I wasn't coeliac after all), and he told me that the blood test is 90\% accurate, and that the biopsy is to be completely sure that you have it before you need to go on this restrictive diet for the rest of your life. Hope this helps, take care Michele Roberts See more of this discussion:Blood test alone diagnosis

Title: Arthritis and coeliac disease. Source: Annals of the rheumatic diseases (Ann Rheum Dis) 1985 Sep; 44(9): 592-8 Additional Info: ENGLAND Standard No: ISSN: 0003-4967 (Print); 1468-2060 (Electronic); NLM Unique Journal Identifier: 0372355 Language: English Abstract: We report six patients with coeliac disease in whom arthritis was prominent at diagnosis and who improved with dietary therapy. Joint pain preceded diagnosis by up to three years in five patients and 15 years in one patient. Joints most commonly involved were lumbar spine, hips, and knees (four cases). In three cases there were no bowel symptoms. All were seronegative. X-rays were abnormal in two cases. HLA-type A1, B8, DR3 was present in five and B27 in two patients. Circulating immune complexes showed no consistent pattern before or after treatment. Coeliac disease was diagnosed in all patients by jejunal biopsy, and joint symptoms in all responded to a gluten-free diet. Gluten challenge (for up to three weeks) failed to provoke arthritis in three patients tested. In a separate study of 160 treated coeliac patients attending regular follow up no arthritis attributable to coeliac disease and no ankylosing spondylitis was identified, though in a control group of 100 patients with Crohn's disease the expected incidence of seronegative polyarthritis (23\%) and ankylosing spondylitis (5\%) was found (p less than 0.01). Arthritis appears to be a rare manifestation of coeliac disease. This relationship may provide important clues to the role of gastrointestinal antigens in rheumatic diseases See more of this discussion:Re: Gluten intolerance and severe joint pain

Left undiagnosed and untreated, it has severe orthopaedic implications involving osteoporosis and unnecessary treatment of joint pain, which could be avoided. The orthopaedic nurse may have thought that CD was primarily an abdominal disorder. We need to be aware of the potential practice implications in orthopaedics by understanding the disease, its diagnosis, and treatment.

Source: Orphanet journal of rare diseases (Orphanet J Rare Dis) 2006; 1: 3 Additional Info: England Standard No: 1750-1172 (Electronic); NLM Unique Journal Identifier: 101266602 Language: English Abstract: Celiac disease is a chronic intestinal disease caused by intolerance to gluten. It is characterized by immune-mediated enteropathy, associated with maldigestion and malabsorption of most nutrients and vitamins. In predisposed individuals, the ingestion of gluten-containing food such as wheat and rye induces a flat jejunal mucosa with infiltration of lymphocytes. The main symptoms are: stomach pain, gas, and bloating, diarrhea, weight loss, anemia, edema, bone or joint pain. Prevalence for clinically overt celiac disease varies from 1:270 in Finland to 1:5000 in North America. Since celiac disease can be asymptomatic, most subjects are not diagnosed or they can present with atypical symptoms. Furthermore, severe inflammation of the small bowel can be present without any gastrointestinal symptoms. The diagnosis should be made early since celiac disease causes growth retardation in untreated children and atypical symptoms like infertility or neurological symptoms. Diagnosis requires endoscopy with jejunal biopsy. In addition, tissue-transglutaminase antibodies are important to confirm the diagnosis since there are other diseases which can mimic celiac disease. The exact cause of celiac disease is unknown but is thought to be primarily immune mediated (tissue-transglutaminase autoantigen); often the disease is inherited. Management consists in life long withdrawal of dietary gluten, which leads to significant clinical and histological improvement. However, complete normalization of histology can take years See more of this discussion:Re: Gluten intolerance and severe joint pain

I can not believe I found this information. I have twins, one with autism, soon to be 8 years of age. Tried to use the GF/CF diet at 4 years of age. Unable to continue this because of the texture aversion and very limited foods. I continued to let my child eat what would go into his tummy. He began severe toe pain over a year ago. 2-'09 I took to a new pediatrician and she said Plantar Fasciitis ( pain would be in heal of foot from this). Wanted feet x-rays, mentioned arthritis and broke bones. Pedia. told me this toe pain and rubbing toes and screaming in pain from my child was all aggressive behaviors, told her my son went the opposite way and has never had aggressive behaviors. Told me that she saw my son jumping on his feet while at her office with my husband and that if he had toe pain he wouldn't be able to jump. I replied that well if you think that then what makes you think he may have broke bones in feet and requesting x-rays? I made her angry at me by saying this and she wrote me a nasty 3 page letter stating that I had a psychiatric disorder and sent copy to our new pedia. and we had a one hour conversation with him in which he told us he thought previous pedia. was stating maunchausen. My son recently began to have full blown allergic reactions after eating boxed cake mix. I took to allergist who said allergies have nothing to do with toe pain. Last week I got x-rays by podiatrist and his feet and bones are perfect. I am sick to my stomach that this doctor has done this maunchausen thing against me. I really don't care what they think of me , I just want my child to be pain free. I can deal with the autism. Because my child is non-verbal and unable to describe his pain with words is why we have been treated this way. Can someone please tell me where to find the scientific researched info. for joint pain in children with gluten intolerance. I am so grateful to the person's who posted this information

I am so glad i found this sight.. I have just had my 4th baby and found that everytime i ate something homemade like slice or cupcakes he would be up all night screaming.. I baked a few things myself to experiment to see what it could be in the recipe and could only come up with self raising flour.. I did suspect it could be gluten so i tried the same recipe with a gluten free flour and he still screamed all night.. I spoke to older mothers around me and none of them could understand it.. But i know something was upsetting him.. So after reading some of these stories i know i am not going crazy and i feel as though it does make sense now.. I reckon its the wheat .. Thanx to the original person that posted the question and to all of you that answered it.. It certainly has helped me and I am sure many others

Hey,
This may not help, but recent medical guidance is that, for an adult, prior to the test and to give an accurate result. 4 slices of bread (or equivalent) must be consumed daily for 6 weeks prior to the test to avoid a false negative. I went through this too so hang in there as they can diagnose on symptoms alone, I had been gluten free for weeks, more by accident than anything else. They can also look for factors like calcium levels, vit B12 and folic, but as i say i am a male in mid 30's so how much applies to a child i don't know all the best See more of this discussion:Re What you must not eat

THANKS for this support!
My (previously healthy) 15 yo daughter has just been through 6 months of suffering beginning with a stomach wog, then prescribed Flagyl (antibiotics), then they discovered Blastocystis Hominus a relatively common amoebic creature, so she was treated with 5x loads of antibiotics inserted as an enema. Her symptoms only worstened, cramps, reflux, undigested bowel movements. Then I found the symptoms of gluten intolerance online (no doctor came up with it) and (praise God) after 4 days off it the pains have gone away. However, she's sad her diet has to change, I'm hoping it won't be permanent. Regards, Janette Date Nov 2009 See more of this discussion:Re Gluten intolerance and Pain
