You may not be interested in hearing about wheat prices — especially if you can’t have wheat and you don’t buy products with it. But the extra cost in wheat could still trickle down to you.
Is it bad that I’d prefer my daughter have a reaction if she eats gluten? In general, if Emma’s had gluten, I really want to “witness” it. But why? Is it that former newsie coming out in me—the nosey side? Am I just a concerned parent or worse, maybe I’m just wishing the worst on my own daughter.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve worked hard to get my kid with celiac disease to eat not just gluten-free, but also healthy– but is it enough? New research out of Canada says — maybe not.
A few molecules in the gluten protein found in wheat, barley and rye could be the “troublemakers” — the ones that cause damage– to the guts of celiac patients. Now researchers hope to use this discovery to create a vaccine!
Grains, seeds and flour, that are inherently gluten free and many of us buy to create gluten-free foods, were tested for gluten contamination. What this research found was, in my view, alarming.
“When will I feel better?” or “When will I be healed?” It’s a common question after a celiac diagnosis. New research explains why some people may have a harder time healing than others.
There is undeclared wheat in a few of Starkist’s SeaSations Frozen White Fish Fillet products. The FDA announced the voluntary recall late last week. The affected products are in certain geographic areas. Learn more in this post.
There’s confusion among the general public about the difference between a food allergy and celiac disease. It is something we celiacs have known for a while. Now this discovery is being revealed in a recent survey.
If you have a kitchen, as we do, that does double duty as gluten-free and gluten”ee” you likely find yourself constantly washing your hands, counter tops and scrubbing pots and pans. What really works? Soap and water, sanitizing wipes, bleach?? What will eliminate the gluten?
This week’s post that looked ahead at our hopes for the next ten years, showed how most celiacs hope for a cure or a pill to mitigate symptoms of a gluten-reaction. But just because some people didn’t have some of the most common answers doesn’t mean they’re not worthwhile to discuss…
