Re: Re: celiac disease

[Guest guest]

I was just reading that Quinoa is known for helping mamas make milk for nursing.. and I'm trying to relactate and newly on the gluten free diet... does anyone know where I can buy Quinoa and is it a flour or what?? Thank you!!!

Marg, That's what I'm afraid of with getting the kids blood tests... do any Dr's. do stool samples/testings instead for gluten sensitivity? Seems so much more reliable. )Thanks, Hugs the GF diet has surprisingly not been as bad to follow as we expected. ) Hang in there, you'll feel like a new person soon. ;o)

Re: celiac disease

I had my son tested with Enterolabs for gluten intolerance. Anything over 10 is considered gluten intolerant - he was a 9. I keep him gluten and casein free and it seems to help. RE: hypoglycemia.
