Health Food Shop In Idaho


byuiemily

Recommended Posts

I have been going to school here in Rexburg Idaho for a year now and I had been wondering if there was any place I could go that was close by that might have gluten-free products. Well, through some searching I found out there was a guy here at school who had Celiac and so I emailed him and he told me about this Health Food Store called "Nature's Nook" that is right here in Rexburg! Yesterday, after 2 months of knowing about this place, I was finally able to get over to it *I don't have a car, so it makes it hard to get over to shops that are not good walking distance* and boy was I blown away. Back in Topeka, Kansas we had a Health Food store but it was nothing like this! It wasn't so much a place to just buy Organic foods as much as it is tailored towards those who can't have certain foods, just as flour/gluten. They had Gluten Free Pantry products and all types of things; not only food but lotions, shampoos, conditioners, deodorants, vitamins, chapstick, and the list goes on. I don't know if there are any other types of stores like this place in Idaho, but I would have to say this is by far the best place I've come across, but of course it could just be because Kansas doesn't have the greatest selections of places.

      Yes, it is important to get 25OHD blood and PTH tested and monitored.  My doctor tests me 4 times a year along with homocysteine and the other blood panels.  Massive vitamin D doses under a doctors care can raise vitamin D level quickly, but those doses wear off in about three months, so either sun or supplementation needs to be instituted in order to not lose the gain.  There have been numerous clinical trials on kidney transplant patients with doses as high a 1.5million IU with no ill effects.  But those are a one time bolus under the care of doctors.  One conumdrus of these really high  dose supplements is a higher incidence of falls.  The answer is that the patient feels so good, they are more active than usual before regaining strength and balance.

      Yes, 50k IU daily would be an a short term front end loading dose for those having critically low levels but you wouldn't want to take it for an extended period.

      That's 20ppm, not 20,000 ppm. https://www.fda.gov/food/nutrition-education-resources-materials/gluten-and-food-labeling "The rule specifies, among other criteria, that any foods that carry the label “gluten-free,” “no gluten,” “free of gluten,” or “without gluten” must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten."

      That is a solid home test--feel free to share other tests you run.

      Definitely consult with your doctor before considering such high doses--5,000 IU is likely fine, but 50,000 IU could cause serious issues over time.
