    I buy those all the time - but I get large 180 tablet bottles from Amazon. If you get them on subscribe & save then you get another 15% off - by far the cheapest option I've found. They do wonders for me - I can eat a meal without bloating!

    I place my leaves in the centre of a clean, dry tea towel, then gather the corners.....go into the back garden and swing it around my head for all I am worth! Pah, who needs fancy-shmancy salad spinners, lol.

    Sorry if I seem pedantic, but I need to point out something, in case someone who has a wheat allergy reads these posts. Just because a product is gluten free, doesn't mean is wheat free. There is a substance called "codex wheat starch" (widely used in Europe, I don't know about elsewhere) which is being used more and more in gluten free foods. Here is...

    I've been reading this thread, and others like it for some time.....I find dealing with people the hardest thing about gluten-free. Mostly, I've now got it cracked, but dealing with my MIL seems impossible. I'm self diagnosed, after a lifetime of progressing symptoms, which got so severe I had to leave my job and set up as self employed from home. It...

    Yeah, just to let you know - an adapter just makes the plug fit into a socket - it doesn't change the voltage. As you have found, the voltage in Europe is generally higher than the US (My American friends fritzed their stuff too). You need a device that actually converts the voltage, called a "step-down transformer". Like this: Open Original Shared Link...

    Thankyou! I've bought solgar products before - I think they are a quality products, but I missed that they did the sublingual B12 - I'll be getting some this weekend!
  8. Greebo115
    cristiana, can you tell me what sublingual B12 you get, and where you get it from? I'm in the UK too and can't find any subligual.....only tablets, thanks.

    You need to take the DE each time you eat. They are not stored in the body, so taking them in the morning won't help at all with your evening meal. You also need to "up" or "down" the dose relative to the meal. E.g. I eat 5 meals a day. I take 2 with each of the 4 smaller meals and 4 with my main meal. You will need to find what works for you (It's not...

    She might have intended to make it with gluten-free noodles......? Probably not, lol.

    I don't know where in the world you live, I can only give you my experience from the UK. If a company just packages many different items (including gluten products) and doesn't use precautions to prevent cc, then potentially, everything it sells is cc'd. Example of this are companies that got me: East End, Supreme and Rajah -they sell rice, beans, flours...

    The things that got me were mostly condiments and spices that have no business containing gluten. Eg: curry powder - I thought it was always just spices mixed, but often has wheat flour too. asafoetida powder - I thought it was pure....but nope, contains wheat flour, but can get it with rice flour instead though. Soy sauce.......jeez and when I bought...

    Renegade, this is the exact reason I will never be diagnosed by a doctor until the day they invent another way to test. I seem to be super sensitive and can become incapacitated for 3 weeks just from something supposedly naturally gluten free (e.g. plain raw cashews, beans, rice...) that was packed in the same factory as gluten.......my own diagnosis is plenty...
  14. Greebo115
    Ditto what the others have said - but another reason you must take back-up food for the flight: I ordered gluten free (it might have even been on a Virgin flight), and it got left behind, so they offered me a VEGETARIAN meal - like that was ANY good to me at ALL - arghhh! (pasta and veggies slathered in sauce, with a cake for dessert)

    You really need to try Booja Booja chocolate truffles - dairy free, soy free and gluten free. I thought I'd never find chocolate that didn't make me ill.....I found these the week before my birthday (last week)......after 2 boxes, I can verify that even the snobbiest of chocolate snobs will love these - I do! Correction - "did" love these....need...some...
  16. Greebo115
    It's news to me that you can buy it without wheat flour added! - here in the UK that's how it comes. Powdered and mixed with wheat flour. I've heard rumours of an Asafoetida powder that has rice flour instead, but can't find it and never knew that you could buy it in it's pure form...hmmm, I had a look at the site you mention - interesting! I shall now hunt...
