Hello,

I have recently been diagnosed with celiac disease and have been on a gluten-free diet for 6 days now! I have been in contact with some dieticians in our local area and in Louisville for help with questions I have.

I am also interested in knowing if there is a support group in Lexington, KY and if not, would anyone be interested in working together to start one at some point. My GI doctor did not know of any support group in Lexington and did know of one in Louisville, KY.

Learning day by day......!

I live in Georgetown and have recently contacted the dietician at Good Foods Market. She will help in our quest to get a support group started. I will take some information blanks there tomorrow requesting name, phone, email, etc. and I will form a data base with the others I already know in the Lexington and Georgetown area. I will try to get the names together so we might be able to meet together in March sometime, as I will be unable to meet most of Feb. Let me know your email and you can email me at falwell@cablelynx.com Hope to hear from you. Jan

      By Sergiu2020 · Posted

      Thanks a lot! I will search that too. I also talked to another doctor and she assured me there is no gluten in this type of antibiotics. Anyway i started the administration of Augmentin on my girl this evening. I hope there will be no problems.

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      NEED TO READ ALL LABELS (FRONT & BACK)

      By Peggy M · Posted

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
