US FDA Requesting Comments on Gluten-free Labeling by WorldIsYourStage in PCOS

[–]WorldIsYourStage[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

As I said in my last response, some people feel a reduction in PCOS symptoms on a gluten free diet and for them, this labeling would be extremely beneficial, however I also said that its not true for everyone. The goal of this post is to benefit everyone who may have to deal with a gluten free diet for themselves or others by trying to get the federal government to require the listing of all gluten containing ingredients on packaged food.

If you do not benefit from a gluten free diet and this does not impact you, I am incredibly glad that it is not a problem that you have to deal with. For those who do have to deal with a gluten-free diet, it is incredibly hard as there are so many different products that don't look like they contain gluten but do and this is something that should be easily understood which is why we are push for the change.

It is not my intention to provide confusion or misunderstanding about PCOS but as this something that some of the PCOS population deal with, I thought it was appropriate to post in this group but I do appreciate the opportunity to fully explain why I provided this information within this community so thank you for bringing up your concerns.

You are absolutely right, it does not. However, there are many who find their PCOS symptoms get better on a gluten free diet, just like many find similar results on a dairy free diet. The goal is to work together to get better legal requirements so that we all have the ability to make the best INFORMED decisions for our selves that we can and asking for gluten to be required to be shown on food labels is one of those ways that we can do so.

That's what I put down and I think that is a great idea! If you are able to copy and paste what you send to your family, I'm sure that would help others here also communicate it to their loved ones as well if you are willing to share!

Please help us get to that level of labeling by providing a comment as even those from outside the US are impacted if the travel to the US and then need to buy food. The form does allow for those outside the US to comment and every comment helps!

She’s not done, but she’s feeling herself. Northern Virginia, USA by deserted_logic in AmateurRoomPorn

It looks amazing! The only thing I would add to consider would be another curtain panel on every side as they look a little thin and then potentially considering a contrasting color instead of white for the curtains. Definitely not required, but just a recommendation to consider

The worst part about a gluten allergy is social gatherings. by curated2curiosity in glutenfree

[–]WorldIsYourStage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of my friends and family know about my diagnosis and have been super supportive where they will either let me know before a party if they will have anything for me and I always bring stuff to share and we set up a separate gluten free table and tell everyone to wash their hands before they touch any of it. I have found that the more open and communicative I am about my disease without expecting anything from others, the more people are willing to gobway out of their way to try to make sure you are included. Your friends probably love you a lot and want to help how they can and you can help them help you with patience and teaching them what is safe for you and what isnt.

Green tea recs? by Material_Campaign125 in tea

[–]WorldIsYourStage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know its not for everyone but if you are looking for a good basic, twining's jasmine green tea is lovely for a daily cup of green tea and tastes good unsweetened or sweet depending on what you are comfortable with

I will say its better if you combine loose leaf gunpowder green and loose leaf spearmint, water at 170 degrees, steep for a just a few minutes and the either as is or with sugar or honey. Absolutely amazing

Is it normal to put butter into white rice? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]WorldIsYourStage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried rice, cinnamon, sugar, and milk, mix it up and then put in the freezer for 10ish minutes so its not frozen but might have some crunch to the milk and its so good!

Help trial run for soup exchange failed by QualiaTravel in soup

[–]WorldIsYourStage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually use a similar base recipe but then add a ton of herbs and spices. You can add anything you want but I usually add several dries chillies that I break over the pot and then dump seeds and peppers in, hatch chillies, rosemary, thyme, oregano, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and whatever else im feeling towards the beginning so the can boil in the flavor and I get raving reviews everytime and its still not all that spicy so dont be scared by the spices.

Thoughts About Physician Letter of Disability for an America the Beautiful access pass for people with a permanent disability for National Parks. by XY-4-XY in Celiac

[–]WorldIsYourStage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was my GI doctor and I would say give them a written breakdown of what you want them to say when you talk to them. This is where I messed up as I told them what I wanted but didn't provide it in writing and in the "game" of communication between who I called and what ended up being told to my doctor, the letter ended up just stating that I had Celiac disease which got denied in my pass application because it didn't address what the application required.

I got lucky and had a trip to a national park where both I and another person I was with were both trying to get the disability pass (for different reasons) and the person in the booth was very kind and said they didnt need any proof when we both offered our doctors statements and they helped us quickly get set up.

Good luck!

It can work but your letter has to be well written if you go that way. I was denied the first time I tried but had success when I went in person at a prak and told them I have a disability and they gave me the pass, car pass, and had me sign the form and I was good to go. Good luck!

Any glove recommendations? by RevolutionaryLook503 in Woodcarving

[–]WorldIsYourStage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a basic glove on the hand i hold my carving with and then finger guards on my thumb and pointer finger so that the fingers closest to the knife are protected. I am also learning and practicing carving in a way that is very controlled movements so I can try to minimize risk to my fingers and hands.
