- S V replied to S V's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications2Cooking with Scallop Medalions
Thanks, I appreciate you getting back to me. Sometimes the retailers don't have content info on products they sell and they have rewrapped them with no ingredients list. Guess I'll stick to prepackaged medalions with all the info. -

I find that I sometimes have symptoms due to cross-contact with foods that *might* be contaminated in the processing. 100% gluten-free certification is something I look for in every processed food I consume. -
- ShariW replied to Dora77's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease6
Is this safe for someone with celiac disease?
I would not be comfortable with just wiping down the rack after a gluten-containing food was cooked on it. When I cook pizza in the oven, my gluten-free pizza goes on the top rack - nothing else is ever placed directly on that top rack, gluten or not. Contact with minute traces of gluten cause me symptoms within a few hours. If I heat a gluten-free roll... -

Also ask for a test of vitamin D levels. I agree with knitty kitty that cyclical Thiamine deficiency may be the cause of your cycle. Celiac Disease causes multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Itchy palms can be a symptom of iodine deficiency. Low iodine levels can lead to dry, flaky skin on the hands and body due to the disruption...

Contact with minute traces of gluten cause me symptoms within a few hours. If I heat a gluten-free roll in my toaster oven, I place it on a small bit of foil so that it does not directly contact the rack that *might* have traces of gluten on it.

Also ask for a test of vitamin D levels. I agree with knitty kitty that cyclical Thiamine deficiency may be the cause of your cycle. Celiac Disease causes multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Itchy palms can be a symptom of iodine deficiency. Low iodine levels can lead to dry, flaky skin on the hands and body due to the disruption of normal skin cell regeneration caused by a lack of thyroid hormone production, which relies on iodine. Other symptoms are fatigue, weight gain, sensitivity to cold. I take between 600 and 1200 mcg a day Liquid Iodine. It has improved my healing. Strong Iodine and Lugols Solution are other options. Start low and build up over time. Between 1970 and 1988 the dietary intake of Americans dropped by 50%. Perhaps this is why some can tolerate the bread in Europe? -
Be cautious with vitamin D if you are female and post-menopausal. I had to decrease my D dosage from 4000 IU/day to 2000 IU because of hormonal acne and unwanted facial hair - likely from an increased testosterone level from the D. Finally relief! I hope to keep my D level below 50 nm/l now.
