What do you teach?

Campus? What do you do?

I'm the guy in the dining hall that scrapes the food off the plates before it goes into the big dishwasher. It's kind of like your sauna, but with leftovers :huh:

No, really, I work in the student billing office at the State U. in town.

You easterners are having a lot of fun over here.

I used to drink mocha's, became quite the habit. Never liked coffee, used to have only 1/2 hot of espresso in my mocha and quite that.

I don't fit in over here (boohoo) but you guys are fun to read anyway. :D

Oh, then I'm going to keep intervening to keep Patti from cutting her hair. I'm that way, too. That's why I change the color every couple months. When it was shorter, I changed the style every time!

Cheap coffee means you're drinking it for the caffeine if you can afford better and don't bother with it. If you can't afford better, then it means you're doing the best you can. I am VERY spoiled ... I buy good coffee. But I am too lazy to grind my own, so I do have it ground for me. If I get back into drinking it at home, I might buy a new coffee grinder like a friend of mine has that's much easier than the little one I have.

My dear lady, you assume to much! :lol: I drink decaf, I generally aviod cafine cuase it make my blood sugar even harder to control.

I drink coffee for the taste, and I have tried far more beans/blends/etc then you could name (I used to run a a real coffee shop, not a chop joint like Starbucks). :P

But if I want coffee at all, I have to mix in cheap as the bulk of it or do with out. But I will be ordering some more this or next week. So be a good time to visit LOL

I would close the door, go inside and press the brew button on my machine of course! :lol:

Okay, so, would we still be outside when you closed the door? :unsure:

Andrea, please join in, we talk about whatever topic anyone brings up!!!

Patti, distance is all a matter of perspective. Adam's territory is 5 states and he does a lot of day trips (we live about in the middle, which is why Cincinnati is a good place for us). He goes to TN regularly .... Nashville is not even a five hour drive! Now, to a lot of people, that's far ...

Okay, now I'm really out of here, but I'll be back. Chloe just discovered something else Morgan cleaned out of the cupboard ... all the Lara bars ...now I better go look under my bathroom sink, I'm sure she cleaned me out, too!! College kids .... ;)

Patti, we'll have our almond milk question answered in less than an hour!! :rolleyes:

But really, jump right in! You too Andrea. The more, the merrier.

He'll probably do his thing where he quotes everything he wants to comment on and makes a VERY long single post from it!!! It'll take him all day, then it'll take us a week to read and comprehend the whole thing :lol::lol::lol:

Where is Steve, anyway?????

I'm a boring person, really, don't do much. I like the board so I can talk to some "adults". :D

The cutie is 10 months old now, next oldest just turned 4, and my oldest will be seven in December. We are in the middle of homeschooling......what am I doing on here then? Oldest two are looking at something outside. They wanted to go swimming (in the kiddie pool). Not quite warm enough for that.

I was wondering if I was in the wrong thread for some "adult" talk. ;)

I'm guessing you got tired of being the adult, and that's why you popped in over here! ;)

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
