Hey Green Bay Wisconsin,

I am looking for some friends in our area that would like to exchange emails and share our triumphs and trials as I feel quite alone with this.

Looking forward to hearing from as many of you as possible.

We are. :) I don't think Green Bay is a very gluten free friendly community is it?

Anyway, my husband went gluten free at the end of December and so did my 13 yr old. Husband last week reintroduced gluten back in and is finally seeing symptoms return...so he'll be back gluten free again soon I believe. My daughter has ADHD and has been having joint pain and stiffness for 2 yrs...since going gluten free it all went away :). Hoping the gluten free helps her ADHD as well. So I'm cooking gluten free but I personally am not gluten free...but mostly am..LOL.

I'd love to discuss meals and gluten free shopping and eating out in this area. It sometimes does get difficult.

Hope you are doing well.

Hello I am from Little Chute. Havent been on in a while. I am Gluten Free and soon to be Dairy and Nut free. I am feeling pretty low about it today. I am not as upset about the nuts as the Dairy. Since July 1 going gluten free I have added a lot more dairy into my diet...as if that was possible. I am looking for people in the area as well. I found a GREAT source of information in an Appleton store. They sell a lot of gluten free as the owners both have celiacs and they supply me w/ tons of valuable info.

My name is Jody and hope to hear from you!

hi thumper,

i'm not from green bay, but i'm a packers fan since childhood as my uncle is from there...does that count? ;)

no matter where we live, i think we can still provide support to each other through these boards. it's why i joined! a gluten-free diet is virtually unheard of here in Holland, land of bread and beer. lucky for me, there's good cheese here at least.

best wishes,

janel

Carecare,

My mom is comming to visit and she has Celiac Disease. If you could direct me in a place to shop for her I would appreciate it. She will be here the 13th of June so the sooner I can find a place the better off we'll both be. Thank you so much.

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.

      In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent?  If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"?

      I order my vitamins from Pipingrock.com. They also make Cream of Rice.  Clearly marked gluten free. Right next to the Cream of Wheat. Stoneyfield Whole Milk Yogurt will help repoputate your gut bacteria.  It has lactase so is ok for lactose intolerance. 6 ounces has 210 mg calcium. For magnesium I get the 10 ounce bottle of liquid Magnesium Citrate at the supermarket or drugstore ($3).  One or two ounces of it  in a glass of water.  Add ice and sugar if you like.  I like the Cherry or Grape best. Instead try: Cream of Rice, Cheese and Good Thins (rice crackers), scrambled eggs and gluten free toast. Do you need Calcium supplement?  Calcium from supplements can cause hypercalcemia, a condition that can lead to serious health complications.  Vitamin D increases calcium absorption.  Monitor 25)(OH)D vitamin D plasma and  parathyroid hormone (PTH).

      The forms that vitamin and mineral supplements come in can be important. Bioavailability (i.e., how well they are absorbed) is often sacrificed for the sake of cost and shelf life. The vitamin or mineral you are targeting is always chemically combined with other elements to make them into a dispensable form (such as a powder, liquid or a pill) and to give them some chemical stability for shelf life.
