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.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      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.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Flash1970 · Posted

      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.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      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.
