In OZ there's this pasta sauce they sell in the "health food" section called Fungi Sauce. Eww. They should really just say "mushroom" or something. I'm assuming that's what it was anyway :huh:

Well....I guess we'll have to sell our fungi to the makers of "Fungi Sauce" then. :lol::lol:

Sounds like they could use the fungi....for their "healthy" sauce. :huh:

OMG...I have to say that I DO love mushrooms!! I always have....I would just put them in the oven and eat them like they were a snack. Soooo good. Oh...and portabello mushrooms....with cheese melted on top....it actually tastes somewhat like steak. B)

OK...so now I cant eat them anymore on account of having excess fungi growth...what a BUMMER. I wonder if this will permanantly scar me from eating fungi ever again. :unsure:

I have to admit that I love fungi- but rachel, if you eat it I'm calling in "The Yeastie Boys" and thay ARE Licensed to ILL :P :P :P

Mango- I got the gluteny batfish but WHERE THE HECK WERE YOU? Those batfish looked scary and creepy! It's probably from all the gluten they ingest. Ewwwww!

Oh...in Italy, the wild boars root them out. They actually use truffle hunting dogs to find them because the boars certainly won't fetch :P and they amke TONS of money off these shrooms ;)

But in rachelville, I think we should have truffle hunting pigs that get rid of the fungi and cute dogs that bring us chocolate truffles!

And The Yeastie Boys play every party!

Rachel,

I had assumed Mango was talking about when you post a quote, not quoting someone here. Maybe I assumed wrong. :ph34r:

I love mushrooms too, haven't had them for awhile though. I know they are high in glutamates but don't know if they turn to free glutamates. Seth has enough problems without me adding to them.

I didn't know what truffle hunting pigs were either. :P

Ohhhhh.....so truffles are some kind of fungi??? I think I might be catching on. ;)

Sheeeesh...the way I seem to attract fungi there should be no shortage of cash in Rachelville!

But in rachelville, I think we should have truffle hunting pigs that get rid of the fungi and cute dogs that bring us chocolate truffles!

Yeah cute dogs (like the one in your avatar) bringing us chocolate truffles daily! :D

Yeastie Boys...Liscenced to ILL.....OMG....that cracks me up! :lol::lol::lol:

Woah....no wonder you're so excited about the new quote button! :lol::lol:

sorry but I had to laugh...and yeah...I'm still laughing! :lol:

:lol: Yeah I have a tendency to make everything I do much harder than it has to be.

I had assumed Mango was talking about when you post a quote, not quoting someone here. Maybe I assumed wrong
LOL this is funny for some reason. I was talking about multiple quotes actually. I knew about the "reply with a quote" button, but whenever I did multiple quotes I would always write out the word "quote." I remember at some point on the OMG thread everyone was saying they finally figured out how to do multiple quotes. I thought "okay they figured out how to keep writing the word "quote" and adding all the little symbols around all the sentences they're quoting" :ph34r: :ph34r:

There's probably a really obvious and easy way of doing it that I still don't know about :ph34r:

Mango- I got the gluteny batfish but WHERE THE HECK WERE YOU? Those batfish looked scary and creepy! It's probably from all the gluten they ingest. Ewwwww!

I was in some version of h€ll, which consists of white sandy beaches and and bread floating around in pretty turquiose waters....and millions of invisible stingers in the water that that kill you within four minutes if you get stung...and sharks..and flies that bite you through your clothes...and seagulls that attack (seagulls)...and a shelf protruding from the wall that serves as a bed...and a hose in a tiny smelly bathroom that serves as a shower (that you're only allowed to use for one minute a day)...and really horrible sea sickness...and sea turtles and huge manta rays that swim past you in the stinger and gluten-infested waters (that part was kinda cool)

Sorry I got a bit carried away there (I could go on and on). I was on a sailing trip in the Whitsunday Islands - off the coast of Queensland, Australia. It was adventerous :)

I found you!! I didn't know this thread was resurrected!!

Mango, I do the quotes the same way you do ... it is simpler for me to just type it in than to look for all those buttons and figure out how to use them!!

I think we need to discriminate and only allow fungi we like into Rachelville! I like Portabellos stuffed with spinach and topped with brie. Yum. It is like a steak.

Did you see any sharks??? I'm fascinated by sharks. :D

Yeah and don't you swim with crocs in your spare time? :P I only saw sharks once when I went on a kayaking trip. It was supposed to be dolphin kayaking but I don't think they marketed it very honestly LOL.

Wow! That looked SO BEAUTIFUL except for the gluteny batfish......Holy Tropics! Take me away.

I swam with sharks and sting rays in the Bahamas.....Rachel, you would have LOVED it! Really scary but so COOL!

OK- to explain, truffles (the funky fungi kind) are REALLY REALLY expensive mushrooms and are supposedly a delicacy. Tons o' cash!

But I like the truffles to be brought by a cute doggie. Angus (in avatar- my new puppy!) would love to serve all of you chocolate truffles and give you puppy kisses! :wub: :wub:

hehe...I wouldnt think of doing it now. :P

HOLY TROPICAL PARADISE!!

Does it really look like that!! OMG....its perfect! I must go to a place just like this when I dump all these yeasties!! :o

This is sort of what I pictured Rachelville to look like...this would be the outskirts. A total paradise. :D

I've only been to Hawaii but it was so populated and not quite as tropical.....probably because I was in Waikiki. :rolleyes:

Pleeeese....let me get this funky fungi off my back sooooon!!

This would definately be COOL....my dream would be to swim with dolphins....its always been my dream. I wanna frolick with the dolphins. :)

A guy I was dating was planning to take me to Florida..to some place where you can actually do this. He was setting it all up....but I was too sick so I broke up with him. (we really need one of those head banging emoticons) :rolleyes:

Oh my- thank you. He's a VERY GOOD boy! We love him to pieces.

Rachel- I have always wanted to swim with dolphins so there will have to be a dolphin swimming area where you can jump in the warm water and frolick with WILD dolphins who happen to love the residents of Rachelville and come in and oout to play. Also, you can lay on the beach forever and NEVER get sunburned!

OMG!!..Yes, we MUST have Dolphins in Rachelville shores (it's by the sea, right??)

I've alway's wanted my son with learning difficulties to go swimming with the dolphins - he'd LOVE IT!!!...he loves animals..and they alway's seem to love him back!! :D

Oh yeah!!..and a beach you can lay on all day without getting burnt!!...Excellent!!! (my fair,paler than pale skin will love it!! :D )

      @glucel, There's a strong correlation between thiamine deficiency, hypoxia, and insomnia. Thiamine is needed to help red blood cells carry oxygen. In thiamine deficiency, hypoxia (lack of oxygen in tissues) occurs, and this can result in insomnia. Hypoxia causes systemic inflammation, increases inflammatory markers, and is associated with cardiovascular...

      New Research Reveals How Antibody Genes May Shape the Immune Response in Celiac Disease

      Thanks for the thoughtful comment. You are right that the study’s main conclusion was cautious: the researchers found that inherited antibody-gene variants significantly shape the naïve B-cell receptor repertoire, including usage of some gene segments involved in celiac-related antibody responses, but they did not find strong evidence that polymorphisms in...

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      I have osteoporosis and have crushed three vertebrae. I supplement with Lysine, Tryptophan, threonine, calcium, Boron, Vitamins D, A, and K, and the B vitamins (folate, B12, and Thiamine B1 especially for bone health). I tried Fosomax, but it tore up my insides. I prefer the supplements. I feel better and my bones feel stronger. References...

      iron digestibility

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @glucel,  There's a strong correlation between thiamine deficiency, hypoxia, and insomnia.  Thiamine is needed to help red blood cells carry oxygen.  In thiamine deficiency, hypoxia (lack of oxygen in tissues) occurs, and this can result in insomnia. Hypoxia causes systemic inflammation, increases inflammatory markers, and is associated with cardiovascular events.  Curiously, thiamine deficiency is correlated with excessive daytime sleepiness and oversleeping.   I found a combination of Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, magnesium, and L-theanine works very well for inducing sleep.  Sometimes, I add Passion Flower Extract and/or Sweet Melissa.  There's no side effects the next morning with Passion Flower, it just induces sleepiness.  Sweet Melissa is groovy, and has anti-inflammatory effects on the digestive system.   I prefer to take 250 mg Benfotiamine and 100 mg Thiamine TTFD in the mornings and another dose of Benfotiamine at lunch.  I try not to take any thiamine after four p.m. because it keeps my brain so energized and wanting to think... Oh, I do take a combination of another form of thiamine (sulbutiamine), Pyridoxine and Cobalamine for a pain reliever sometimes, but I can sleep after taking that.  But thiamine does help regulate circadian rhythm.   Make sure you're getting Omega Three fats! They'll help you satisfy that late night carb craving with fewer carbs.  Flaxseed oil, olive oil, sunflower seed oil.  Nuts and nut butters, like walnuts and cashews, are good, too, if you can tolerate them.    Try taking the 100mg thiamine HCl before your aerobics and see if there's a difference.  Sweet dreams!

So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      Coeliac And Cardio Vascular Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!
