FDA Warns Grain-Free Dog Food May Promote Serious Heart Condition in Dogs
Karen B. commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
I also remember seeing articles on how"risky" a gluten free diet is. Something I've never seen substantiated with facts. Risky is trying to be gluten free when you're feeding your dog gluten. Corn already makes my dog itchy. They will adapt. -

I can't speak to the effect of childbirth but I was so anemic, I was having heart palpitations, which led to the Celiac diagnosis for me 20 years ago. I worked with a hematologist to build my iron back up and one thing they told me is to take carbonyl iron. It's more readily absorbed. Also, take it with an acidic beverage like orange juice to increase absorption...

DiGiorno Debuts Gluten-Free Frozen Pizza
Karen B. commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Free of gluten would mean equal to zero in a sane world. Gluten lite? Less gluten? Maybe we need a term that actually says what it means. -
Or is it preparation for the legal fallout? Those photos are difficult to refute.

Thanks for the link and for being a solid source of info for people with Celiac. You were my first information stop when I was diagnosed in 2003 and you’ve been a mainstay since.

Informing us of facts is not getting into politics. Opining on the right or wrong of her actions would be political. I don't think the article could be more unbiased in its reporting of facts.

I appreciate being informed of this so I can make an informed decision on who and what I support. I'm all for freedom of expression but I will not support anyone that participated in that event. Thank you for providing the information so I can make that choice.

DiGiorno Debuts Gluten-Free Frozen Pizza
Karen B. commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Yes, there are too many good frozen gluten free pizza to waste my money on one that is indulging in false advertising. I know people with a wheat allergy that consider the gluten free label to indicate that the food is safe but apparently, that is no longer true. -
DiGiorno Debuts Gluten-Free Frozen Pizza
Karen B. commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Yes and I have celiac but my reaction was far beyond a normal gluten reaction. Within 10 minutes of my first bite, I was in the bathroom with extreme diarrhea and vomiting to the point that I passed out. Gastroenterologist said it wasn’t a gluten reaction, I have also developed a barley allergy. He said it’s possible to have both a celiac reaction to glu... -
DiGiorno Debuts Gluten-Free Frozen Pizza
Karen B. commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Could you possibly have developed an allergic reaction to wheat in addition having celiac? I had a similar reaction to a “gluten-free” pizza made at a local restaurant but later discovered their sausage had beer in it and apparently I have developed a barley allergy that I previously didn’t have. In any event, I accidentally bought this pizza and h... -
Stax by Lays is gluten free and tastes as good as Pringles, IMO. Look for the bright blue tube with the yellow label.

I use a subliminal B12 when I get a gluten exposure because that's the first nutrient that drops out. If your gut is damaged, you aren't going to absorb pills.

We called the number on the package and they told me if I need gluten free, I need to buy the package that is labeled gluten free. Fortunately, I can find it on Amazon. Maybe something has changed in their sourcing or processing. There are no gluten ingredients listed but it definitely had cross-contamination or something in it that wasn’t gluten-f...

I thought McCormick was gluten-free but recently got sick from a meal of ground turkey with McCormick taco seasoning and I called to confirm it is still gluten free and was told that only the package with the green label that says GLUTEN FREE actually is. Of course none of the stores carry it but I can get it on Amazon in a multi pack. Same thing for McCormick...

Whole Foods to Shut Gluten-Free Bakery
Karen B. commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
My family will miss their Apple pie and cheddar biscuits. Both are weekly purchases. My mom has enjoyed having her cheddar biscuit and sausage for breakfast. No one else offers these products in gluten free. Much as I enjoy Amazon, I have to wonder if this is another decision driven strictly by profits.
