Im going to skip the oreos since I dont have a store near here that sells kinni-too's

How am I going to replace the ice cream bars? Do they sell these gluten free or should I just layer midel's chocolate chip cookies and vanilla ice cream.

How about making thin brownies then layering it with the ice cream? That would be more like an ice cream sandwich than the hard Midel cookies. Then you could have the Midel cookies replace the Oreos.

Wow ... can I come over???

Thanks! Michigan isn't too far ... except that I'm in Southern Ohio! :P

Hot buttered rum sounds SO GOOD! Except it's HOT here ... maybe it's just a rum drink that sounds good, haven't had a drink since Dec. 6th!!

How about a pina colada or a daiquiri? Its hot here too, 88 degrees, but its sounds so good with chocolate. But what doesn't sound good with chocolate ;)

CarlaB Enthusiast

Actually, I can't have the sugar either. <_<:(

You're right, anything is good with chocolate!

Im sorry :(

Are you limited on fruit too? If not how about fruit soaked in brandy? My friend use to make sangria that way and I loved the fruit just eating it on its own.

:( No, I'm on a ton of meds for Lyme and can't have alcohol, sugar, or caffeine ... in addition to the gluten. It's very boring ... I can have some fruit, but not an abundance.

But I can still dream about coming up there and having some ice cream cake!! :P Trust me, my constant brain fog is so bad, I don't need any alcohol!! :lol:

Im sorry

I was on a very restricted diet before also basically only whole foods and I avoided dairy so I know how you feel. I hope your able to go off of it though soon. I was on it for about six months and it was hard. I hope you have a good memorial day weekend :) You'll be up here with me in spirit :D

CarlaB Enthusiast

I will, I'll be enjoying eating that cake with you! Except that I'll be at the RACE!!!

Have fun! I usually stick to whole foods too but I needed to cheat today :D

Yeah, whole foods gets boring sometimes ... you'll just have to eat the WHOLE cake! :P I cheat on the sugar once per month ... but no cheating on the alcohol. This month I had gluten-free carrot cake at Risotteria in NYC!!!

I love carrot cake, especially when someone else makes it for me :)

I didnt eat the whole cake but I did eat almost a quarter of it. Now with the booze I'll be asleep soon ;)

It looks like you need a creamy something, a crunchy something and a fudgy something layered and covered with Cool Whip. Personally, I think some nuts would be good in there too (but I like nuts). Maybe make a recipe of brownies in a jelly roll pan so it comes out thin and crispy? Or bake some gluten-free chocolate cookies? Or crunch up some Heath Bars and sprinkle them in to give you the crunch?

And if you have a Kroger near you, they have a Private Selection (store brand) ice cream named Extreme Moose Tracks that is chocolate to the max! It would be a great sub for the ice cream sandwiches (chocolate ice cream, fudge ribbon and chocolate chunks). I won't let my hubby buy it any more. :-)

Hope this gives you some ideas.

Whoo! Do they have Kroger's in New England?

Glutenfreefamily Enthusiast

Thanks Karen! Those sound delicious too, heath bars would taste really good as a topping in it.

That is one of our favorite ice creams :) its a staple in our house for my husband.

JNBunnie- Im not sure? We have them here in michigan.

      It's nice to see celiac-safe options out there for guest homes.

      Your situation involves interpreting elevated Deamidated Gliadin Peptide (DGP) IgG levels, which can indeed be confusing without clear symptoms or additional diagnostic tools like a biopsy. Here’s a possible approach to help clarify your next steps: Understanding DGP IgG: DGP IgG is a blood test often used to help diagnose celiac disease, particularly in individuals with IgA deficiency. However, since you’ve confirmed you don’t have IgA deficiency, the focus should shift to other celiac-specific tests, such as tissue transglutaminase IgA (tTG-IgA) and endomysial antibodies (EMA-IgA), which are more specific for celiac disease. Elevated DGP IgG alone is not diagnostic of celiac disease but may indicate gluten-related immune activity. Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS): You’re correct that NCGS does not typically show abnormalities in blood tests like celiac disease does. NCGS is diagnosed based on symptoms (e.g., bloating, fatigue, brain fog) that improve on a gluten-free diet, after celiac disease and wheat allergy have been ruled out. Since you don’t currently have symptoms, NCGS seems less likely in your case. Possible Next Steps: Monitor Symptoms: If you remain asymptomatic, it’s reasonable to continue eating gluten and retest after some time. This is because celiac disease can develop or become symptomatic later, and ongoing gluten consumption is necessary for accurate testing. Repeat Testing: Consider repeating the tTG-IgA test, as it is the most sensitive and specific for celiac disease. If this is also elevated, it strengthens the case for further investigation. Genetic Testing: If available, HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 genetic testing can help rule out celiac disease if negative, as nearly all celiac patients carry one or both of these genes. However, a positive result doesn’t confirm celiac disease, as these genes are common in the general population. Dietary Trial: If testing remains inconclusive and you develop symptoms, a supervised gluten-free diet trial might provide clarity. However, this should only be done after thorough testing, as going gluten-free prematurely can interfere with accurate diagnosis. Biopsy Limitation: Since a biopsy is not available in your town, you’ll need to rely on blood tests and clinical judgment. If your tests remain inconclusive but you develop symptoms, you may need to travel to a facility that can perform a biopsy for definitive diagnosis. In summary, if I were in your position, I would continue consuming gluten, monitor for symptoms, and retest with more specific celiac markers (tTG-IgA and EMA-IgA) in a few months. If symptoms develop or tests remain ambiguous, consulting a gastroenterologist for further guidance would be advisable. Always work with a healthcare provider to interpret results and tailor next steps to your specific situation.

      The fact is, we know very little about the mechanism of NCGS at this point. We know much more about celiac disease. Some experts believe that NCGS can transition into celiac disease. And I do not agree with what you read about NCGS not producing any elevated antibody tests. IMO, and I have no scientific data to support this, it's just a hunch base on reading many, many forum contributor test result reports, elevated igg antibodies may signal a transition from NCGS to celiac disease.  But there are other things besides gluten that can cause elevated dgp igg and ttg igg antibody levels. So, yes. I would continue to monitor the situation if I were you and get regular testing. Not necessarily every 6 months but yearly anyway if you can. In the meantime, if you know gluten causes you unwellness, continue to avoid it.

      Statins are a widely prescribed class of medications used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks and strokes. Extensive scientific research, including large-scale randomized controlled trials, has demonstrated their efficacy and safety for most individuals. Statins work by inhibiting an enzyme involved in cholesterol production in the liver, thereby reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often referred to as "bad" cholesterol. Importantly, statins do not "remove all fats" from the body, as suggested in your post. They specifically target cholesterol synthesis and do not deplete essential fats, such as those required for brain function, hormone production, or nutrient absorption. The body still maintains its necessary fat reserves, including healthy fats, which are critical for physiological processes. Regarding the claim that statins cause internal bleeding by making blood vessels permeable, this is not supported by scientific evidence. Statins are not known to increase the risk of internal bleeding. However, like all medications, they can have side effects, such as muscle pain or, in rare cases, liver enzyme abnormalities. The benefits of statins in reducing cardiovascular risk generally outweigh the risks for most patients, particularly those with a history of heart disease or high cholesterol. The suggestion to use odorless garlic, magnesium, vitamin K, and calcium for heart health may have some merit, as these supplements can support cardiovascular function in certain contexts. For example, magnesium is involved in muscle and nerve function, while vitamin K plays a role in blood clotting and bone health. However, these should not replace evidence-based treatments like statins when prescribed by a healthcare provider. Always consult a medical professional before making changes to medication or starting new supplements, as individual health needs vary.

      Just judging from the reports we get from forum members sharing their endoscopy results, very common. But we also get a lot of reports of inflammation in those areas coupled with a negative biopsy for celiac. But I wonder if in a lot of those latter cases we are seeing NCGS or a transition from NCGS to celiac. I have no scientific data to support that. It's just a hunch.
