I LOVE IT!!! Now I just need to find it in the states. I'd have to remember not to take it on a plane though, how embarassing does THAT look on an airport scanner :ph34r:

I will add one here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth. Amazing fruit!

Great shine but I have fruit flies buzzing around my feet now. Any suggestions for controlling them?

Yes, me too! LOVE my bananas, I'm a two-a-dayer, but our kitchen is inundated with fruit flies! How do you get rid of these things?

I bought 4 tonight and I'm somewhat on the rotation diet. One tonight-2 in smoothie tomorrow and 1 for snack tomorrow. I think that works. LL

:) Thanks so much for the information-I had no idea. I have a love/hate relationship with them. I choke them down because of the D, but I like the flavor in smoothies. It is strange that it causes so many to have looser bowels-wonder what that is all about. My son is also allergic to them --that is interesting about avocados and latex. There was another thread some time ago, where we were discussing the common links between one food allergy to another. Zack hasn't had guacamole because he would never try it because he said it looks too gross, but now I am glad he hasn't. Thanks for that information too. See how much pain and suffering you all spare us with your experiences!!!btw-penguin you are too funny. I am so glad you are on this forum. :) Edit--I once bought some bananas that had a baby tarantula on them. Gotta watch out for those nasty buggers.

This really is interesting stuff. My son has a mild oral allergy to carrots & apples. He can eat them, but they sometimes make his mouth & throat tingle. He also suffers from hay fever, & I'm sure there is a connection with the pollen proteins.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.
