If you are preparing various foods that both are gluten-free and contain gluten in the same kitchen then these 10 steps are a must. It is important to have duplicates of the following items to help insure the safety of the gluten-free dieters. Buy these items in a different color, label them, keep them in a different drawer… do whatever you need to do to avoid contamination with gluten.
For one thing, having two colanders makes life easier when your family has pasta for dinner. (Of course, you’ve cooked the gluten-free pasta in one pot and the “regular” pasta in a different pot, and used two very different spoons to stir the pots.) If you don’t have a dedicated gluten-free colander, you always must remember to drain the gluten-free pasta first, or little pieces of “regular” pasta will stick to the colander and contaminate the gluten-free food. If space is an issue, get one of those collapsible colanders.
Same issue as with the “Colanders,” above. For example, if you’re flipping gluten-free and “regular” pancakes in two different pans, you need two different spatulas.
Keep a collection of plastic and wooden cooking spoons in your kitchen. Use the plastic ones for the gluten-free food and the wooden ones for the “regular” food. Even though they look different, when you have gluten-free and “regular” pots going at once it can get confusing and you need to be careful not to stir the wrong pot with the wrong spoon. (In those circumstances, another trick is to put the gluten-free pot on the back burner, to reduce the danger of contamination from spoon drippings.)
Do not bake gluten-free muffins or cupcakes in the same tins used for wheat-based baking. As with muffin tins, you should not bake gluten-free cookies on the same cookie sheets used for “regular” cookies. With cookie sheets, however, you can cheat and line them with either heavy-duty aluminum foil or a silicone pad.
Flour sifters are difficult to clean, so it’s best to have two if anyone in the house will be sifting “regular” flour. Note: Handling wheat flour in a kitchen used to prepare gluten free food is dangerous, as wheat flour can stay airborne for hours. If you must sift wheat flour, cover or remove all gluten-free food from the area.
Do not work with your gluten-free dough on the same wooden boards used for wheat-based dough.
Either use a separate toaster for gluten-free breads, or use a toaster oven but place aluminum foil on the rack to avoid contamination.
With pots and pans, the issue is not so much that it’s difficult to clean the gluten off. The reason it’s good to have more than one is so you can use separate pans for cooking gluten-free and “regular” foods simultaneously.
These are easier to clean than metal baking dishes. If they’re used for gluten by mistake, you can scrub them clean with steel wool.
If possible, get a cutting board with a crumb-catcher underneath it, to limit the spread of gluten-containing crumbs. Wipe up any stray crumbs immediately.

Also known as baking soda biscuits, these buttery morsels are delicious on their own or can be used to make the perfect gluten-free strawberry shortcakes.
* TIP For dairy-free biscuits, replace 4 tablespoons butter with 4 tablespoons dairy-free margarine or non-dairy buttery spread. Make dairy-free buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar or cider vinegar to 1½ cups milk of choice (rice, soy, hemp, nut). Proceed with recipe instructions.
Place into a pot and simmer for 2-3 hours until vegetables are done. Sprinkle with nuts and seeds on top when ready to serve.
Do you suffer from intestinal problems? Do you have headaches, mood swings, weight gain, and fatigue or muscle pain? Do you suffer from attention issues? These can all be signs of food allergies. There are different types of allergies, immediate and delayed. Immediate allergies are commonly known like peanut or seafood allergies. What about delayed allergies? These are allergies where the symptoms are not acute but subtle and can take up to 14 days to appear. We often see behavioral changes in children with allergies to food dyes and colors. These can all be easily treated and managed
Serenity Health Care Center in Waukesha uses several approaches to identify and manage food allergies, including:
In all, we test for 50 of the most common food allergens, including wheat, corn, eggs, milk, yeast, and soybeans.
Most food allergies can be easily treated using the rotation/elimination diet or sublingual immunotherapy, also known as “drop therapy”. Fixed food allergies, such as shellfish or peanuts, are enduring allergies. These food allergies are determined by history. The only current treatment for fixed food allergies is the complete elimination of the offending foods.
The IGG blood test is a comprehensive blood test that helps identify foods that are causing delayed reactions. The IGG food panel will test 50 or more different foods, and you will receive a report with these foods divided into three reaction categories ranging from mild, moderate and severe reactions.
By making healthy changes in your eating program, you can minimize many of the symptoms caused by food allergies. Our treatment for food allergies using the rotation/elimination diet is 100% natural, convenient, safe and effective. For those foods that you cannot totally eliminate, you can use sublingual immunotherapy, which relieves symptoms and assists in healing the immune system.

Patients with adrenal fatigue experience a group of symptoms that conventional medicine doesn’t recognize or treat. Adrenal fatigue is not a disease, but a collection of symptoms that are classified as a syndrome. This syndrome occurs when the adrenal glands are not functioning at their normal level. In contrast, when the adrenal glands do not function at all, it causes Addison’s disease or Cushing’s disease. At our alternative medicine clinic near Milwaukee, we treat adrenal fatigue syndrome with natural hormonal treatments and other remedies.
Adrenal fatigue is related to cortisol, the stress hormone. Several situations can put the human body under stress.
When the body is stressed, the adrenal glands produce cortisol, which regulates many bodily functions and the way they respond to stress. These functions include immune responses, metabolism and central nervous system functions. A person with adrenal fatigue doesn’t produce enough cortisol, and this has a negative effect on the body and quality of life.
Many conventional medical doctors do not acknowledge adrenal fatigue. They also don’t diagnose or treat the syndrome. At our alternative medicine clinic near Milwaukee, our practitioners have the knowledge and expertise to diagnose and treat this syndrome, helping our patients improve their lives and feel better.
Patients should talk with our medical staff if they have any of the following symptoms.
Patients who present these symptoms may be evaluated for adrenal fatigue.
Our medical practitioners perform blood and saliva testing to help diagnose adrenal fatigue syndrome. A saliva test indicates whether cortisol levels are normal, and bloodwork determines whether the body is producing sufficient amounts of DHEA, testosterone, aldosterone and progesterone.
If a patient has adrenal fatigue, the practitioners at our alternative medicine clinic near Milwaukee will devise an individualized treatment program. Treatment includes hormone supplements such as bio-identical cortisol, DHEA, pregnenolone and dietary supplements. Our practitioners also recommend lifestyle changes that can help the patient return to better health.
Patients who are suffering from fatigue or other symptoms that affect daily life should contact us. The staff at our alternative medicine clinic prides themselves on providing help for problems like adrenal fatigue that conventional medicine fails to acknowledge.
