Ok im so excited! A whole Foods just opened up like 5 min from my house! I went in today and it was packed! But I was so happy with the gluten free selection, and its all labeled nicely and it tells you that its gluten free! There were so many cupcakes and cakes and cookies and crackers! thats stuff I haven't had in 9 months! Its pricey, not something ill get all the time but it will be a nice treat to have every once in a while! I was just standing there in AWW almost in tears from joy looking at all the stuff! just had to let everyone know....

It really is great!

At a local WF, they periodically have gluten free tastings, coupons, gluten-free vendors come in ....so keep an eye out for that to happen at yours!

Try the Whole Foods brand gluten-free Bakehouse - particularly their pizza crusts, their cornbread, and their new chocolate cupcakes.

They opened one to the city to the south of me, in Roseville, but they've deliberately scattered and spread out all the gluten free goods all over the store to increase the amount of time and effort one has to spend searching for the products. There is a gluten free aisle, but it only has a few items on it. Ditto the premade frozen gluten-free aisle. This makes it really difficult to compare labels, ingredients, and prices, too. And I really don't want to see the little bags of specialty type spelt flour or the regular bread flour or cornmeal mixes, or other bags of possibly gluten containing flours sitting on the shelf right next to the gluten free flours, it's a huge turnoff.

Really, really, big time wasting annoying, because this store is also in a high traffic area if you don't live in the immediate vicinity, so it's not a casual trip. My local groceries and health food stores, which have much more user friendly layouts, a bit cheaper pricing on a lot of the same items, and try harder, will continue to get the bulk of my shopping. There is another Whole Foods in Sacramento near Arden mall, and they, the last time I was there, had a much more organized gluten-free aisle.

It's fun to go there and just look, if you want to blow time.

You are too funny! :D I am lucky that I live in the state where WF started and I have access to quite a few so I know your joy. Just don't go overboard on their treats or you'll gain weight but it sure is nice to be able to just buy some cupcakes when you want them. I have to admit when I find a new gluten-free product that looks really good, I get as excited as a kid on Christmas morning!

I travel approximately 2 hours to get to my nearest Whole Foods. I do this about every 1-2 months. My local grocery store (about 20 minutes away) carries the basic MiDel cookies, 1-2 brands of cereal, bread mixes & pizza crusts.) I usually shop there between visits to Whole Foods.

Consider yourself lucky!!!!

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      Welcome Connie Smitj, Did you have a follow up test to see if the treatment for H Pylori was successful? It's possible to catch it again, especially from a partner. When I contracted it a second time my wife was tested and was positive for two of the bacteria in H Pylori.

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      Welcome to the forum, @Connie Smitj! Can you give us a little more history about your celiac journey? How long ago were you diagnosed and how long have your been gluten free? Do you have other symptoms besides quick onset of hunger after eating and gut pain? How long have these symptoms being happening?

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      I eat a gluten-free diet but hunger pains start within an hour of eating dinner. I had h pylori infection before I was diagnosed. Occasionally I’ll have bouts of pain. Could it come back or is it just celiac disease?

      Help Understanding Test Results

      Scott, am I missing something? For the TTG-IGA normal is anything 3 or less and his score less than 2. I think that one is in normal range. @Brown42186, if the GI doc is not interested in doing an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining based on the elevated TTG-IGG I would request a repeat on the bloodwork now that you have resumed gluten consumption...

      Do I have celiac/Gluten sensitivity?

      By JohannesW85 · Posted

      Did you take a look at my pics that I uploaded?    These rashes is not itchy, but I have seen that people have this too that have celiac and it’s not itchy for them either. I have also heard that sulfur burps are a common things with celiac too.  Yes it can be something else too but it’s to much symptoms that I have that match with either gluten sensitivity or celiac.   Hopefully it’s just gluten intolerance and not celiac.  As I said before I have the gen type for celiac and diabetes typ 1 and the those diseases going hand in hand.    Thanks again Trent for your time to reply, and I wonder if any body else have kind of the same symptoms that I have?
