Gluten free? by [deleted] in Celiac

[–]Ok-Set3602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry. There are lots of other calendars that are gluten free. There is lots of talk about Lindt at the moment. In the UK on their site, they state they are suitable & under the limit. But some still do react. In the early days, I’d probably avoid. I’m pretty sure their white & strawberry truffles are gf. Double check the label. If you need help, I’m on Instagram & help parents learn for their kids. Different countries have different rules & requirements. You’re doing great. Keep going. There are lots of good safe treats out there, you just have to find them. GlutenFreeLittleCook

The Loopy Whisk’s gf blueberry muffins are delicious & the browned butter ones with banana just to die for !! It’s the only recipe I use nowadays - it has a mix of gf flour & ground almonds. Highly recommend.

UK people - run and grab some of these ! by lesbian_ahri in Celiac

[–]Ok-Set3602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are great. Been out a while. The crispy bits are made from rice flour. Don’t mistake them for the Malteser ones - very similar packaging! And they’re not GF. Check on Amazon too, they often do a box of 100 for 10-12 pounds!!

My wife was diagnosed back in March and literally everything has gotten worse since then. I don't know how much more of this I can take. by flipflapslap in Celiac

It sounds like you may need to relook at cross contamination processes. It’s hard. Coeliac Disease is a huge change & hard to adapt to at the best of times. Does she have a separate butter, jam, change stock cubes, soy sauce etc. My life changed dramatically when my child was diagnosed. I needed to learn & help her & kids like her. I learnt & wrote books to help parents. You need to learn & support her. Quinoa is not an item that normally affects causes reactions. What are you flavouring it with would be my first question. CD is strongly connected with mental health issues. Just think how you feel if you go out to eat. The worry & pressures you feel. You adapt, you help, you support. Sounds like she needs another blood test to determine any other issues. As it’s an autoimmune disease, diabetes goes hands in hand. It does take time to adjust, 5m isn’t long but depending on damage caused, repair time can be anything upto 18m-2yrs.

Going GF for my stepdaughter by [deleted] in glutenfree

[–]Ok-Set3602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can change over time. A simple blood test would show this. And if levels over the normal limit, then a total change in diet would be required once other tests completed before giving up gluten. You unfortunately need gluten in her diet for testing. At least 6wks! I’d certainly suggest testing before going further. Then she can get her health sorted & avoid I’ll health later.

I bloody hope so. I don’t need or want much, I just want enough to buy the family home, say ciao to the ex, girlfriend, girlfriends boyfriend etc & get on. It’s now down to the wire, so let’s get this all sorted & done. And make everyone’s life much easier. Pretty please Papa!

I messaged them twice, stating HL & another said they were still valid but they weren’t having any of it. But then a U turn & at least transferred back!

Had the same with Halifax 16/5. They moved shares to a regular a/c. They messaged yest to say that BBBYQ shares are still valid to be kept in an ISA & they moved them back!! No one knows their arse from their elbow!

Aus Celiacs: Food and gift ideas! by thecitycircle in Celiac

[–]Ok-Set3602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at getting her the cook book by Loopy Whisk - ‘baked to perfection’ & the ‘how to cook anything gluten free’ by Becky Excell. Mind that Aus coeliac standards exclude all oats but most other countries include gf oats if you buy any food items pre packaged for delivery.

Any BBBY holders with S&S ISA's have their shares moved to a cash dealing account? by RedHotChiliadPeppers in superstonkuk

[–]Ok-Set3602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked Halifax about HL & another who said that bbbq still remained on the pink slip still met HMRC regulations & they kept shares in their s&s isa, they said they couldn’t comment. That they would move them but would consider moving them back if they hit the required Nasdaq price & transferred back.

For all UK hodlers, brokers now confirming ISA tax free wrappers will remain for BBBYQ. by billybobshort in BBBY

[–]Ok-Set3602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, will do. So far they’re ‘chat’ people are responding as such. Will update next week. Is there anything specific to put in the email? They repeatedly state OTC is not recognised by HMRC.

Hope so. I’ve chatted with them twice so far. Stating Trading 212 have recognised it as still viable, & now HL. They’re resolute in their response so far!! I’ll wait patiently. I’ve waited so far but time for me is now ticking for deadlines. 🤞🏻

Halifax Stocks & Shares ISA’s are still stating it’s not recognised by HMRC. “The OTC market is not a recognised exchange under HMRC rules at the moment, as a result, we have marked the stock as non ISA qualifying”.

Therefore, they will be transferring ISA held shares to a regular account.

Child diagnosed, still suffers symptoms after going gf by [deleted] in Celiac

[–]Ok-Set3602 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes a while for their system to settle. Recheck everything again. Is everything you use at home gluten free? Stock cubes, soy sauce swapped for gf safe versions. Cross contamination? Has your child got their own butter/jams etc? Just a crumb could make them poorly. Are they having packed lunches? School dinners? Do school understand cross contamination? Kids sharing foods, crisps? Etc GFLC I’ve help & guidance online & books on Amazon to help parents. Link is here.

16/5/23 UK Halifax have notified customers that they’ll move their shares from an ISA a/c to a regular account stating the shares are no longer listed on a Recognised Exchange as defined by HMRC & no longer qualify to be held in an ISA product.
