Riceguy, haven't I read on your posts that you are still trying to come to the bottom of your health concerns?

Well, like I said, I do believe I found the culprit. I'm still recovering though, so maybe that's what you had read. It seems to be taking some time for the toxins to clear out. I can understand that since I was doing so badly for so long. I can feel the improvement day by day.

Thanks for the idea of adrenal fatigue though. I will look it up and see if it applies, but I can certainly say I didn't react well to meat even a number of years ago. So if adrenal fatigue is an issue, then I'd guess it would had to have been with me a long time.

For anyone looking to increase protein intake, but cautious about meats, try T'eff. It has more protein than many other grains. Low in fat too, if that's a requirement. I think Flax might actually have even more protein than Teff, plus the omega-3 is really good. Thing is, I doubt Flax makes a good cereal. It's usually just sprinkled on food or into recipes. Millet ain't bad either, and it's very digestible and well tolerated by most people with allergies to other things.

No I know not everyone beleives in santa

Phased?

Certainly, the shoe elves are usually very reliable. I don't know what they have done with my shoes and the underpants gnomes have stolen my pants.... of course I'm phased!

You know the little guys who come i the night and steal your underware.

Its usually odd socks but sometimes other stuff gopes missing only to turn up hidden in a comforter cover or something later...

Don't you have them in America?

To check you need a packet of lucky charms and dig a big hole .. in the morning you can pull out assorted eleves, gnomes and fairies. If you live near an airport you can get leprechauns as well who stow away in the wheel arches of Air Lingus jets!

It might be. I much prefer a physics model as a means of explanation. For instance, one might suppose that the temperature inversion combined with the angular momentum of the rotating drum sets up a sympathetic resonance on a hyperdimensional level. As electrical discharges (from static electricity) occur in this region, a rift opens, quickly forming into a vortex due to the rotation. This is what physicists call a "worm hole", which is essentially a portal into a another part of the universe, or even another dimension. Granted, this can only be theory until someone devises a method to test it.

Or it could just be that your missing sock is stuck inside another article of clothing, or still clinging to the inner surface of the washer.

That's how the underpants gnomes travel here from their dimension!

Luckily I sell a special antiwormhole device I can sell for only $200 that prevents this....

send all money to ascammer@scam.net quickly before you loose out.

Only limited socks left.. I mean stocks left.

Is it just me or is this getting silly :D

With six kids, we lose more socks than I buy, and no I have not figured out how that happens ... but I know I can keep my kids in socks for a long time for $200!! I bet you don't sell many of those!!

Did you ever see Amelia, hmm, that's not right, I don't think, but it was a French movie and the yard gnome traveled the world? Great flick, even though I had to rely on subtitles.

Come on guys, we're all old enough to know how to handle the sock monsters. I'm in Ireland so its mostly leprecuans here.

A usefull fact is that most leprecuans are celiac, so just leave em a bowl of cookies and they wont bother you again. Otherwise your only hope is the gnome trap with lucky charms as previously described.

However the lucky charms will also attract toothfairies. If the fairies are left trapped with the gnomes overnight, well . . . in the morning it ain't pretty.

Really the best way is to keep your socks in a timed safe. Only set it to unlock once a day.

Sock Problem

when I was 16 I dated this fella I liked alot. I also used to use the dryer to iron my clothes...you know about 5 minutes of tumbling the wrinkles are gone.

Well we went ... movies and food and sat in his car after date, just talking. Anyway, all of a sudden during our date I feel something scratching my back....I place my hand by my collar in back and like a magician I pull a white sports sock out of my blouse! I was so embarassed .....

When I was in kindergarten I found one of my dad's socks in my sleeve. I was so embarassed and didn't want to answer questions about why I had a man's sock that I left it there all day!!!

Did you ever get another date with him?

These stories are hilarious. :) It reminds me of a time I was taking karate class and I did a kick and a pair of underwear that had been caught in the pants in the dryer, came flying out the end of the pant leg. :P

Ooh, Nancy, there's no topping that! :D I did walk around with a pair of undies in a sweater sleeve for several days once, but luckily (this was in high school...) I was alone when I discovered tham. phew! :P

another date? no. As teenaged romances go, it was over before it began. I don't know if he even saw the sock as it was dark...I don't think we had another date after that one.....I occasionally do still speak with him and he never married or held a long-term relationship. He's a loner - artistic type.

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
