It’s good to see this taken seriously!

For folks like me who are sensitive to #gluten it may be worth investigating how we respond to #fodmap foods. We can’t eliminate fodmap completely bc these are foods our bodies need, but if we can identify which groups cause us most bloating & upsets we can adjust our habits to find the most fun & nourishing food intake for the least possible pain.

Also there’s the pesky fact that digestive systems shut down when we’re in flight or fight mode. For many of us who are #ActuallyAutistic, after a lifetime of gaslighting & trauma those embodied trauma responses are our everyday normal.

Let’s be gentle with ourselves. @actuallyautistic

#GlutenFree products often have more sugar, calories, and less protein than gluten-containing options—while also costing more. A molecular breeding professor explains the findings of a new study: By Sachin Rustgi, Clemson University #nutrition #gluten #celiac buff.ly/41kqWjN

Spent a few days up in Beacon for a friends birthday. I made them and everyone staying with us pancakes with starter leftovers, Bread 6 with spice additions of their choosing, and my first pizza. We got a pizza 00 flour and my gosh the gluten! It was my first bread in a kitchen that wasn't my own. Half was eaten in one sitting, and the 5 cast iron pizza's were devoured before I got any good photos of them.

On the way back, we stopped off in Jersey City to visit some neon I made in 2019 and installed later in spring of 2020. After 5 years in the window, some of the glue on the polycarbonate tube supports were failing. I replaced the now brittle zip ties with twisted wire, and the tube supports got some holes with nuts an bolts. Five years later and the neon still looks just as good as day 1, and the acrylic backer is still in good condition. Nice to see my favorite radio station gearing up for their party time.

The WFMU Monty Hall neon as seen from outside. A neon rainbow with WFMU in front of it and pink cursive "Monty Hall" underneath the rainbow neon record. A white cord dangles down with a bluur crutain behind the sign. The window is framed by classic columns painted black.
the crust of bread 6 along with some cut slices off of it. A decent rise.
The back of the WFMU neon. Downtown Jersey City in the background. The neon rainbow record along with white transformers seen through the clear acrylic mount
me being amazed about the gluten development in the pizza dough I made- my hand window paning through the stretched dough,. faux marble in the background along with cheap mozzarella cheese

"The Church of England has ruled that #non-alcoholic wine and #gluten-free bread cannot be used during Holy Communion.

The guidance states that the bread must be made with wheat flour and the wine must be fermented grape juice to be consecrated." #churchOfengland #coe

You NEVER see #Pastafarians being so callous and unchristian!

Consumer Labs found that some oats on the market contained a disturbing amount of gluten.

I would share the article but I think you have to log onto to read it.

Rolled Quaker Oats 100% Whole Grain Oats Old Fashioned has 672.3 ppm gluten in it. It goes off the chart below there is so much gluten in them.

The 365 brand oats from Whole Foods was at the top of their approved list. I don’t like to praise any Bezos business but at least those oats are gluten free for real.

(if you are using a screen reader and you are interested in the details of the charts below that didn’t end up in the alt text I can read the whole thing into a voice memo for you, just DM me)

What Consumer Labs found: Gluten - A Disturbing Finding As shown in the graph below and in the 2nd column of the Results table, a surprisingly high level of gluten (672.3 ppm) was found in Quaker Oats 100% Whole Grain Oats Old Fashioned. A second container with the same lot number showed a similar result (737.6 ppm). This means that a person who is trying to avoid gluten should avoid this product. (Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Oats was also discovered, in 2022, to contain the highest amount of the chemical chlormequat in a sample of oat-based products - although the amount found was well below the EPA limit. This chemical is not permitted to be applied to oats but can occur as a contaminating residue.) Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Oats is a good . . .
Gluten Found In Oats Rolled: 365 Organic Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats Bob's Red Mill Organic Old Fashioned Rolled Oats Whole Grain One Degree Organic Foods Sprouted Rolled Oats (gluten-free) Quaker Oats 100% Whole Grain Oats Steel Cut: Old Fashioned Bob's Red Mill Organic Steel Cut Oats (gluten-free) One Degree Organic Foods Sprouted Steel Cut Oats (gluten-free) Trader Joe's Steel Cut Organic Oats McCann's Imported Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal All of the above are showing less than 2.5 PPM (1 ppm is equivalent to 1 mcg/g except Rolled Quaker Oats 100% Whole Grain Oats Old Fashioned has 672.3 ppm gluten & Steel Cut McCanm’s Imported Steel Cut Irish Oatmeal has 6.3 ppm gluten
This chart shows yeast and mold found per grams in oats every brand listed had less than 10 CFU/g except Bob’s Red Mill Organic Steel Cut Oats has 20 CFU/g and One Degree Organic Foods Sprouted Steel Cut Oats has 55 CFU/g yeast and mold per sample.
The chart for Lead, Arsenic and Cadmium is overwhelming to type out. They all look bad. Bob’s red Mill organic old-fashioned rolled whole grain oats contains non-detectable amounts of arsenic, but they have the second largest amount of lead for example. Bob’s red mill organic steel cut oats has a small amount of lead no detectable amounts of cadmium, but the most amount of arsenic in this chart. If this is information that you’re interested in if you can DM me I can read it into a voice memo for you.

In 2012 I was 43, and my #weight was just shy of 130kg. I felt like crap, and couldn't keep up with my kid playing kiddy football. I decided to do something about it, started #C25K and a #diet , and by June 2014, I was down to 92kg and was #running 5km three times a week and was well on my way to doing 10km.

Then life threw a curveball and I couldn't #run any more.

And in 2019 I was back to 125kg and was diagnosed with #diabetesT2.

And I started #C25K again, and was back to running 5km a couple of times a week, and was down to about 100kg.

And life threw another curveball, and I couldn't run again. I didn't know it then but my #coeliac gene had activated due to the trauma that stopped me running, and I felt bloody awful. And yup, I ballooned back to ~120kg again. Several utterly useless doctors later "Lose weight and exercise more" "I can barely get off the couch, I am exhausted just walking from the waiting room to your office" "Here's an exercise program" a good #doctor found severe #anaemia as well as #bloating and #JointInflammation and asked why? and I was diagnosed as a #coeliac in November 2023.

I stopped eating #gluten and I slowly lost the feeling of being the walking dead and I started feeling alive again. Very slowly the weight dropped. And I rediscovered the joy of #moving my #body.

Today, I am #55yo , 97kg, and just did this on the #exercise bike, which is 5 minutes longer than when I started a few weeks ago. I'm #purposefully #exercising again.

Will I #run again? Probably not - the #knees and #hips are not what they once were - but I've found that #dancing to #livemusic is great #aerobic #exercise and am happy to hop on the #StationaryBike to make sure I can cope with 2 hours of thrashing it out to #IronMaiden next month. A girl has to have #goals. It's no longer about my #weight or how I #look, it's because #life is short, and I want to #live it.

Welp. Without thinking, I slurped the last beer off the edge of the can that I'd poured for my husband. Normal wheat and/or barley beer. I washed my mouth out with water and gargled several times, but I'm pretty sure that I swallowed the beer.

RIP digestive system.

Worst of all, it tasted really good! 😭😭😭

(That was about two hours ago. No nausea or gut pain yet, but I am hearing gurgling.)
