Oh that really is a pain, especially with a lot of chicken being coated/marianted etc. :/ Very poor of that M&S indeed! On Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 11:01 PM,...
M&S do several excellent salads which are GF. But if I was just going to have a quick lunch in Cafe Revive I wouldn't expect to have to scout round the shelves...
http://anonw.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/does-gluten-lower-cholesterol/ I'm trying to pull all the papers I find on this together and I've posted it on my new...
Hi James, It's possible that being GF increases cholesterol indirectly, since some studies recently have shown that people on a GF diet tend to have lower ...
Ps, I use ground flaxseeds in my GF cereal now to add fibre, and you can also buy psyllium husk caplets. Flax seeds also supply the body with a pre-cursor to...
I've read the link on your blog and did some googleing here's the abstract of the study http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/abstract/74/1/57 What he does is study...
You probably are right about absorption in general affecting cholesterol levels, it makes sense. I try and follow the south beach diet for blood sugar and...
I ordered a stack of pizza bases with my bread order, they are really nice, I have had them before - they are the Wellfoods ones. Hubbie and I had a go at...
I don't know whether anybody has had the dreaded swineflu yet, but I trust that Tamiflu is a safe drug to take and there is no gluten in the tablets. That is...
We had a recent scare. My man works in Paisley and one of his colleagues was asked to take some time off work because he was closely associated with one of the...
If you go to http://emc.medicines.org.uk/ there is an advanced search, where you can put in things like "wheat" and see what you find. I did this and got ten...
Hi james, I've read that tamiflue and .. Er the other drug told coeliac.org that they are gluten free. I actually think swine flue went around our marketing...
Dr. Rosemary on the BBC said that if you're over about 55 or so, you may have had it, as this flu is the same strain as one from the 1950s. James From:...
From NHS directive: "In the majority of UK cases the virus has been generally mild, but has proven to be more severe in a small number of cases, and more...
Thanks for that Gillean, phone diagnoses works out better anyway I think, as few things as cruel seeming as having to drag yourself out of bed when poorly....
Does anyone know if coeliacs are entitled to flu jabs, by the way? My company offer es them anyway, but it always seems to be after I've already succumbed :| ...
I get one because I am diabetic, but if people arent able to get a free one, then Boots offer them cheaply - about £10.00 as do some local private hospitals ...
Thank you, that is very useful. My GP has suggested changing some of my medications, and one of them he wanted to change to is on that list. As is Zimovane,...
I just went into my late wife's chambers to get some papers signed. Celia was a barrister and I mentioned about the Ritalin, possibly containing gluten and...
I get one free, but that's because I chat up my doctor (a lady) very nicely. You are entitled to a pneumococcal (?) jab. James From: UK-Coeliac@yahoogroups.com...
That's really interesting, am glad you were able to spread more awareness on this. Good luck with your report. I'm sure you'll do Celia proud!! x On Fri, Jul...
Hi that is indeed interesting. I too am not really in favour of giving little children such strong medications as ritalin, and I do think that although some...
Somewhat off topic but very interesting :) ADHD is a diagnose, the child/adult has to go through a series of tests to get the diagnose. Having ADHD is far from...
My mom has a mild ADHD (well i say mild only because I'm used to it and she's a grown woman, lol)She's like the blue fish from finding nemo. It's hilarious and...
I can only agree with you. Lots of things affect us in different ways. The procedure of diagnosis might be different in all countries? I know that here in...
I have been having problems tracking the Genius bread down in my nearest Tesco and contacted the manufacturers. They told me that my Tesco definitely had it so...
The school Dr (who likes to keep an eye on Laura because she is the only coeliac child she has access to) tried to get me to have her 'assessed' the last time...
HI I agree, it is a real diagnosis, and there are some children who do need medication to be able to function. But in UK there are parents of children who do...
