knowsley, May 11, 7:07am
I dispute that.

buzzy110, May 11, 7:13am
I rest my case.

mike I don't know your time frame but I will post a link to this thread in one of herika's gluten intolerant threads. She checks them daily and will be more than happy to answer the question. You should get an answer that knowsley will not dispute because he only targets me (he is a bully you see) specifically.

Good luck.

A good magazine for coeliacs is published quarterly by the Coeliac Society of Nz,you will need to subscribe.This is a great mag full of recipes and ideas and up to date medical info on cd

The Healthy Food Guidemarks a lot of recipes 'gluten free' or suitable for coeliacs. They have a website as well as the magazine. People with coeliac disease can have no gluten at all, but people with an intolerance can handle trace amounts. It's important to understand the difference when looking at meal plans.

Enjoy your eggs.

Hi, I will answer in here then bump my thread.
For years I couldnt eat eggs from wheat or pellet fed chooks.I could eat the chicken meat ok but not the eggs.
I disagree totally with donnabeth.I am gluten intolerant (NCGI) and even the tiniest bit of gluten affects me. Melford, who is a Coeliac, says small amounts of gluten is ok.She may eat small amounts of gluten and not have any obvious symptoms, but I can't do that.My symptoms are very obvious, even with the smallest amount of gluten, so I have to make sure I stay totally gluten free.
Many people say that eggs are gluten free because the chicken processes the wheat after eating it....but I reacted adversely so didnt eat eggs laid by wheat fed chooks, and had no probs doing that.Everyone needs to do what they think is best for themselves.
Note: the Coeliac Website says that even the smallest amount of gluten is toxic (e.g. a breadcrumb).
