I'm New Here, And How I Came To Be Here Is A Long Story.

Hi everyone!!

I'm not sure how this site works, but here's my story:

I am a nurse. I do not have celiac disease (or a food allergy). I have friends that do, and what I've experienced with my friends/patients is that it is a very difficult thing to deal with- the learning how to eat all over again to avoid some of the suffering that you guys have to deal with.

I'm trying to make the world a better place, one gluten free dessert at a time. Silly? Maybe. I'm a Southern girl, though, and we're always feeding everyone!

I created a recipe for gluten free lemon bars, and I was wondering if you all would take a look. Or better yet, make it and tell me what you think.

I'm also interested in what other desserts people like that may not be available without wheat based flours.

I have made it my mission to make gluten free stuff that actually tastes good.

I thank you so much in advance for your help, and I'm really excited to hear from you guys!!!

Well, it's not that I forgot, it's that I posted it with a link... Which as I found out today, is against the rules. So the link was deleted, and I am afraid to post the recipe for fear that Google will flag me for duplicate content, even though I don't think one can plagiarize their own work. Sighhhhhh.

I wish there were a way for me to do that little emoticon with its head banging on the wall. It's TOTALLY appropriate here.

It's okay to post a link to your own content, as long as it is on your profile page, not in the body of the forum. :)

Give that a try.

Thank you so much for helping me find a way around this. Since I'm still super new (and all my posts have to be viewed and approved by a moderator), I will do it first thing tomorrow if you can tell me how. I looked around on the profile page, but I'm unsure how best to proceed. You. Are. Awesome.

Hi!! As soon as I figure out how to post it on my profile, it'll be there. I'll let you know when that finally happens, and if you're still interested, I'd love it if you'd be so kind as to give it a whirl.

Ps- I love NC. Spent a lot of summers in Brevard as a child :)

      Skinesa

      In what way? Skinese:  You paid for it, might as well try.  They are the usual mix and is gluten free. "Free of milk/casein, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, gluten, and soybeans. Contains no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives."   Are you using whole milk yogurt or the no fat yogurt.  The no fat has varius ingrediEnts to mimic fats texture but some people react to the  gums used.   Sibo: Foods that do not contain carbohydrates or fiber do not usually cause problems. This includes meats (beef, pork, lamb, venison); poultry (chicken, turkey, duck); fish and shellfish; eggs; and butter, oils, and hard cheeses. Stonyfield Whole milk yogert, I think, is the only one with lactase for lactose intolerance.  Naturally Fermented Pickles [The Complete Guide] For your skin health you need dietary iodine intake around 500 to 1000 micrograms a day.  I take Liquid Iodine 500 mcg a day.  It is the amount I ate daily in the 1960/s before they stopped using it in bread.  Since 1970 the daily intake of iodine has decrease 50%.  50 mcg/drop in the brand I use.  The dose used to prove Wolff-Chaikoff Effect was upwards of 11 grams The USDA lists the safe range from 125 mcg to 1000 mcg (1 gram).  Japanese say 3000 mcg is safe.  Look at tradition japanese hair, skin, and their childrens intellegence.  They must be doing something more right than us.

      FASANO DIET - not Dasani. For some reason, it is not allowing me to edit my post.

      Yes, she should be eating lots of gluten daily...4 slices of wheat bread would be ideal for the screenings.

      Antibodies went up

      By Barcino · Posted

      Hello,  I cant get my daughter's TTG IGA antibodies to drop into the normal range. A bit of the backstory : both my kids were diagnosed in July of 2023. Both were >250 at diagnosis.  My son went from >250 July 2023  to 33 Nov 2023  to 15.7 July 2024. With <15 being negative. He is almost there.  My daughter went >250 July 2023 to 66.3 Dec 2023 to 31.7 July 2024 to now back up to 35.6.  We are a fully gluten free house and we do not eat out AT ALL in any restaurants other than one dedicated gluten-free bakery. We don't eat any oats. She takes anti epileptic drugs / vitamins so we are double checking all medications and supplements. One medication says they should be gluten free but cant guarantee excipients aren't contaminated so we will be changing that one to a different manufacturer.   Feeling a little worried that her levels are worse and we cant get her into the normal range. We are thinking about cutting dairy or doing the Dasani diet. She doesnt eat a crazy amount of processed food and what she has in gluten free certified and not made in shared lines but maybe we should cut it all out until her levels drop? Any other advice? We will check all personal products also, but we believe everything is gluten free. My son is away at school so trying to figure out what she does and eats that he doesnt. Chickpeas (canned), dairy (he doesnt eat much dairy due to acne) and of course her medications.   Thank you for any input you may have.

      Daughter waiting for appointment

      She finally has her appointment today. They said in their opinion it’s likely celiac. But repeated the bloodwork today. Her frost bloodwork was weak positive 5.3 (4-10 is a weak positive) Dr wanted her own labs. And they will be calling us to schedule the endoscopy.  They told her to keep Eating gluten. She has been eating is again for the last couple weeks.
