Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 What's GFCF? I heard that you add new foods to the child when their infants, but I didn't know that you avoid soy milk and things like that. ________________________________________________________________________________\ _____ Get more from the Web.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 Yep, exactly. Also European oats are actually gluten free. The reason for US oats being off the diet is because we do crop rotation, and alternate with wheat crops, so they get voluntary wheat the next year growing with the oats. I have to read all labels. You also can't just go by the labels. If it has vinegar, it could be distilled through corn or wheat. If you have modified corn starch, it could be modified with wheat. Hard candies are often dusted in wheat flour to keep them from sticking together.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 GFCF is gluten free and casein free. Casein is in dairy products.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 You could do allergy testing, but it may not show much. The best thing to do is just try it out. If you find behavioral and physical improvements, stick with it. Our son showed only a very mild allergy to wheat and dairy, but has had lots of good results from GFCF. There is a good web site, www.andi.com, that has lots of good information, and the web site for TACA, which is think is " tacanow.com " has good information as well. Go slow starting the diet, and don't expect results right away. Stick with it a month or two before making decisions about whether it is worth it.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 I know this is a little off topic, but what kinds of things do your kids like to eat? I have been trying to go GFCF for a long time. My son has antibodies to gluten and it seems real important to try it again. Unfortunately as the years have passed, he has limited his foods to popsicles, hotdogs, chicken strips, mashed potatoes and gravy, french fries, pears, oatmeal, and scrambled eggs w/ketchup. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Go to GFCFKids group... full of moms who love to talk about GFCF food! You'll probably get more feedback there than on this biomed site. Pam p.s. You can make all that you list GFCF. I did. Well, the oats will have to go at first but you can later add in the certified GF oats to see if you get a reaction. Take them out during the trial period, though. > > I know this is a little off topic, but what kinds of things do your kids like to eat? I have been trying to go GFCF for a long time.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Rice pasta from Trader Joe's is good. They also have some " no nitrate " hot dogs there. Rice bread, better when toasted.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 I've always liked Tinkyada brown rice pasta. My son loves it. Definitely toast that bread! Same with Energy Foods tapioca bread. I just made a burger for my son and used their tapioca bun. Warmed it in the microwave and he didn't comment once. He is not typically the kid to try new foods.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Absolutely. Gluten can cause a lot of problems, physical and behavioral. We just again went GF after several years. My son has had horrendous gas/smelly BMs for 4+ years, and we've tried everything (sugar removal, enzymes, probiotics, supplements). Removing gluten eliminated the gas within 24 hours. Blood tests don't show any indication that gluten should be a problem... You can order a lot of products on-line. Gluten Free Mall, I think, is one of them.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 How about whole foods? They have all kinds of stuff, little pricey though. That's why I like Trader Joe's. Vitcost.com has a lot of gluten free stuff. You can also order a bunch of different flours and try your hand at baking cookies, pancakes, and stuff like that. If you child can eat eggs it makes baking much easier, holds the stuff together.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Our Ingles and Teeter has some gluten free flours and pancake mixes, but no ready made foods. They may also have some rice pastas. I will check. I have checked Walmart and Target stores here, but didn't find anything that was gluten free. They do sell soy milk and Rice Dream.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 We are very fortunate. We've been GFCF, plus LOD for roughly 3 yrs and my son will eat just about anything. His favorites are still hotdogs or hamburgers (minus the buns) and french fries, but he will eat just about any fruit and vegetable, chicken, turkey, lamb, seafood (very limited), GFCF pizzas and quesadillas. We've found very few things that he wont eat. My husband is harder to feed than my kid! Karla > > I know this is a little off topic, but what kinds of things do your kids like to eat?
