I'd love to have some comments about the various Enjoy Life products, which things you liked, didn't like, etc. I hate to order things blindly. :ph34r:

The snickerdoodle cookies are awesome. I thought the chewy chocolate chip were okay but not great. I absolutely did not like the granola, but I know many people here do...

I think that's all I've tried.

The granola is TERRIBLE. Worse than cardboard.

Just my two cents.

I do not like the granola... the bagels were... well, ok if you can't have Kinnickinick bagels then these are passable, I love the no oats oatmeal cookies, the chocolate chip cookies and the caramel apple and very berry snack bars...

My children love the cookies. Choc. chip, choc. brownie, no-oats oatmeal, gingerbread, and snickerdoodle

I think they are pretty good too. We have nut allergies and are not able to eat a lot of other brands of gluten-free cookies. These are a big hit at our house.

I love enjoy life b/c unlike others, it is egg and dairy free. So, I love all their cookies except the faux-oatmeal ones, but I never did like oatmeal anyway. I don't like their granola either. Their chocolate breakfast bars are good, good purse snack for emergencies. I love their plain and cinnamon bagels...very yummy if you toast them up (I defrost in the microwave, then toast in the oven). I just wished stores sold them so I didn't have to order all the time. I hope you enjoy their products too!

they have some 'energy bars' that I found to be alright, but they put way too much rice bran in their granola for it to be tasty!

I love the Snickerdoodles and the Gingerbread Spice Cookies. Not crazy about the Chocolate Cookies.

I think that their cereals are all GREAT! I go through at least 1 box every 2-3 days.

I also truly enjoy their Rye bread. I wish they would offer a mix so that I could bake it fresh though...

I love the carmel apple and very berry bars. My daughter loves the choco loco bars!

The only thing I don't like is there chewy snack bars - their crunchy ones I liked but I am not sure they have them anymore. Everything else, I love because I can't find anything else that doesn't use soy and/or corn. They are almost my only option.

I actually love the chewy snack bars. Like Becky said, i enjoy the very berry and the choco loco. They make a good snack on the run. They taste like nutri-grain bars to me. I dont know if you liked those before going gluten-free, but i used to really like them. The enjoy life bars are pretty close in my opinion.

I really enjoy the berry breakfast bars! They are soft which do not come by very often with gluten-free bars. I keep a box of them in my desk at work and everytime I want a snack I eat one. I also have the carmel apple but I haven't opened those yet.

Has anyone had a problem with Enjoy Life boomChocoBoom bar(dairy,nut and soy free) RICEMILK CHOCOLATE? Made me very ill. I have read on the forum that ricemilk may contain gluten even though it states it is gluten free.

      Bitters for digestion?

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions...

      Why Bananas No Longer Cure Celiac Disease

      I missed this article when it was first put up. It is interesting to read, as my old neighbour who sadly passed away a few years ago was a trainee midwife during WWII. Bananas disappeared from the shops in Britain during the war, but she told me that those that did get to the UK were kept back for infants with coeliac disease. I didn't realise that...

      @GeoPeanut, milk is one of the better sources of iodine. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. Many people find that a low iodine diet helps them avoid dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks. So, maybe the fact that you have limited your dairy intake of late is helping with that.

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      Welcome to the forum, @KRipple! Sorry to hear of all your husband's health problems. I can only imagine how anxious this makes you as when our spouse suffers we hurt right along with them. Can you post the results from the Celiac blood testing for us to look at? We would need the names of the tests run, the numeric results and (this is important...

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions you describe, flu like symptoms, joint pain, urinary tract irritation, rash, stomach upset, nausea, diarrhoea & fatigue. I had liver pain like you describe, as part of the intolerance is usually a sluggish liver that makes processing all the histamine difficult. There are multiple possible root causes of histamine intolerance, usually it’s a symptom of something else. In my case, leaky gut (damaged gut wall)caused by undiagnosed celiac, but for others it’s leaky gut caused by other things like dysbiosis. Some people also experience histamine intolerance due to mould exposure or low levels of DAO (the enzyme that breaks down histamine in the gut). I’d try a low histamine diet & if that doesn’t improve symptoms fully, try low oxalate too. As others have suggested, supplements like vitamin d, b, l-glutamine to support a healthy gut & a good liver support supplement too. If you’re in a histamine flare take vitamin c to bowel tolerance & your symptoms will calm down (avoid if you find you have oxalate intolerance though). Best of luck

      Welcome to the forum, @KRipple! Sorry to hear of all your husband's health problems. I can only imagine how anxious this makes you as when our spouse suffers we hurt right along with them. Can you post the results from the Celiac blood testing for us to look at? We would need the names of the tests run, the numeric results and (this is important) the reference ranges for each test used to establish high/low/negative/positive. Different labs use different rating scales so this is why I ask for this. There aren't industry standards. Has your husband seen any improvement from eliminating gluten from his diet? If your husband had any positive results from his celiac blood antibody testing, this is likely what triggered the consult with a  GI doc for an endoscopy. During the endoscopy, the GI doc will likely biopsy the lining of the small bowel lining to check for the damage caused by celiac disease. This would be for confirmation of the results of the blood tests and is considered the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. But here is some difficult information I have for you. If your husband has been gluten free already for months leading up to the endoscopy/biopsy, it will likely invalidate the biopsy and result in a false negative. Starting the gluten free diet now will allow the lining of the small bowel to begin healing and if enough healing takes place before the biopsy happens, there will be no damage to see. How far out is the endoscopy scheduled for? There still may be time for your husband to go back on gluten, what we call a "gluten challenge" to ensure valid test results.

      Are they close to a drug that will help celiacs with cross contamination

      By kate g · Posted

      Ive read articles that there is stage 2 research being conducted for drugs that will limit damage to celiacs through cross contamination- how close are they to this will there be enough funding to create a mainstream drug?
