I can't wait for the season premiere. There are supposed to be a couple of catch-up episodes coming up soon. I can't remember the dates!

Count me in! It's one of my favorite shows. I like reading all the spoilers to see what's going to happen, even though that kind of ruins the fun :)

A link to the spoilers please?

My husband prides himself on being able to predict stuff on that show. Messing with him would be a lot of fun for me....

Yeah, what's up with the 4 toed statue? I almost fell of the couch when Sayid said, " I don't know what is more disquieting -- the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has 4 toes?"

If you really must ruin it for yourself...here is the ABC board with countless links to other sites

It all makes sense now! DHARMA is actually the FOX network and the prison break cast are the "OTHERS"! I guess there's no need to watch another minute :P

I get a lot of my good spoilers from Kristin at Eonline. She does chats every Monday that are transcribed on Tuesdays and sometimes she mentions stuff in her columns, which are posted on Fridays. I find she has the most reliable stuff out there.

Happy spoiling!

I watch the ABC plot board. There is inevitably some supposed "insider" who emerges every season and posts the whole episode in detail Weds. afternoon. Kind of takes the fun out of it, but with all of the re-runs I can't take the anticipation - I can't wait! I guess this season they are starting later, running 7 or 8 epi's taking a break of a few weeks and then running straight thru to May with new epi's. Less re-runs are better if you ask me.

Oh, great, now another place to go to spoil me :)

I agree--I like having the episodes in sets so that way there are fewer reruns throughout the year; Lost can get complicated, so hopefully it will be easier to follow this way, too.

Yes! I was so glad to hear that they will run a series of episodes, take a break, and run the rest of them with no reruns. I agree it's hard enough to follow, and having a rerun or 4 in between makes it worse! :blink:

Good to know, thanks Richard for the info.

I need a refresher before the new season starts so I am glad they are running this first.

I do too, Julie--it's been so long since the last new episode.

My boyfriend and I cannot wait!!! The best thing that has ever happened to our love for Lost has been getting Tivo. Now we can rewind, fast forward, pause, go in slow motion, and not believe each other when we swear we see a clue in the background. I cannot wait. lostpedia.com is the best spoiler site i've seen.

We have to wait for Lost until next FEBRUARY (2007), and I hate being spoiled (and can't download episodes fast enough) so you won't see me in this thread soon :P

I looove Lost.

The way it screens here is all the way through, new episode every week (with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 reruns depending on timing between stations in ratings periods). That's why we wait until February I guess ...

      @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!
