Hi Kat,

One ingredient which has become prevalent in almost all fast food and even soups, cooked
meats and other convenience foods from the grocery store is MSG (monosodium glutamate).
Some people seem to build up a tolerance to it (at least for a while) but it makes some people
very ill. Your daughter might want to avoid it for a week or two then add it back as a test just
to see if it might be a problem. There is so much crap added to our food nowdays it is really
hard to avoid all the things which might not be good for us.

My 90 year old mother is supposed to follow gluten free AND low salt. It is almost impossible to
eat out or buy anything at the grocery store which is prepared - bread, crackers, chips, soups,
frozen dinners, box dinners, spreads, BBQ sauce, salad dressings - almost everything has wheat
OR high salt OR MSG OR artificial sweetners. They can be found but your shopping will take a long
time as you read all those itty bitty labels.

I cook almost everything from scratch but I will admit that when it is late and I am very tired it
is not so easy.

By the way gluten-free bread is readily available in the area where frozen rolls are sold. Rice pasta is
also usually available in a section of the pasta isle.

Kat:

I do want to thank all for there advice, I have taken into consideration all that has been offered. You know I just don''t know what to make of Chanel having no sign of disease in her digestive tract, other than God's mercy. We were so expecting to have an ordeal to endure for a long time and it was weighing heavy on us. She is going to continue with the supplements for now and may try a little gluten at some point, just to check and see. But yes the relief is huge and your prayers I believe helped us a great deal.

The younger daughter did have another bout of vomiting last week after we ate out in a restaurant. She feels fine up until and after, but has that period of nausea and vomiting. It must be some ingredient that we have not pin pointed yet. Fox, I was aware of MSG, but thought it had been removed from most foods because so many were sensitive to it? But I'm sure there are any number of trigger ingredients it could be and it is just going to be hard (if not impossible) to figure it out. How do you find out all that is in the food when eating out? Home cooking doesn't seem to cause a problem, so I'm trying to encourage her to cook her own food as much as possible.

love to all,
Kat

Kat, very glad to hear your daughter hasn't anything life threatning or too serious. I think of all the people with chrones and ulcerative colitis and feel bad for them as this is not one of those diseases that they want to share except maybe on the internet. And it is an isolating malady as they are confined to their homes and have to call into work or bring a letter from the dct. explaining it. My son suffers so much and only a few people know. Who would want to talk about it. Even family members think he is malingering unless I go into graphic details, which of course they don't want to hear.
Thank God for this new treatment but I worry about his future health from all the steroids and pills. I just have to believe God has His hand on him.
