Justin's Candy


Adalaide

I'm pretty snobby about my chocolate. I made the mistake the other night of bring my husband with me to the store, he about dropped dead when he saw the $9.95 price tag on the chocolate bar I wanted and I left without anything. <_< (I'll just go back without him, I don't think he understands how this chocolate thing works.) Anywho, I was trying to track down the newest issue of Living Without and headed to the closest health food store next. At the checkout stand they had a huge display of Justin's peanut butter cups. I grabbed a pack of the dark chocolate ones, read the ingredients and package, shushed my husband about 600 times while he freaked out about $2 peanut butter cups, and threw them on the belt.

I miss candy, I mostly miss peanut butter cups. The chocolate was really good quality, smooth, rich dark chocolate. The peanut butter had a nice salty taste, and really went well with the chocolate. It is organic, points but meh I don't require organic. It is fair trade, which is something that I need from my chocolate. Anyone who loves peanut butter cups but can't stand low quality, waxy crap (or has simply outgrown it as I have) should give these a try. They are positively outstanding!

My husband would balk at the price too, but he would get the chocolate too. He knows life is better with chocolate. (He grew up with 5 sisters!)

My husband is still on the learning curve about chocolate. Whether or not he is enjoying it, his life is better when *I* have chocolate! :lol:

I found this chocolate and it's only $7.50. Save yourself $2.45. Open Original Shared Link

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate
