Yikes, I was off the board for 10 minutes and came back to see a bunch of messages from "Alfred". I'm sure someone who is "in the know" knows what to do.

Alfred is someone advertising because this scam artist claims he can CURE Celiac disease by envisioning your intestines in his mind. and with in 5 days you'll be able to eat pizza, bread and all the food that makes you sick as a celiac.

It actually makes me mad that some crack pot is doing this.

Thanks Karen! NOW I see the button at the bottom that says, "Report" and now I know what it's for! I grew up in a strange religion that taught about "healing" like this and I feel like going ballistic when I see someone post something like this.

Wasn't he poisoned (didn't work)-shot (survived)-then finally drowned in a river?? :huh:

beaglemania Rookie

I just looked it up again to jog my memorey, he was shot several times and then his body was thrown into the river. The Queen Alexandria was soo convinced by Rasputin that if he was killed the family would lost the throne soon after. Which they did.

Alfred obviously has a vested interest in celiac disease ever since he burned the cakes....

(if anyone doesn't get it its British history)

not to go off subject, but you always throw out something that intrigues me.....tell us about the burned cakes...or at least what year and what were the circumstances and I go and look it up ...

Off subject? I don't think that's possible in this thread.

oh those cakes.....well they deserved to be burnt, they were not gluten-free.

Do you think the poster using the name "Alfred" was a coincidence then?

I actually graduated from Alfred University, in where else - Alfred, NY.

What the folks in Western NY lack in imagination, they more than make up for in die-hard support of their beloved Buffalo Bills...True story - I have personally seen, way to up close and personal, a mullet dyed in team colors, accessorized with red white and blue face, and torso (among other things I'm sure). Somebody needs to wake up Alfred (the Great) and rally the troops!

I would dare say our visitoy of yesterday was no relation to "the Great"...

Remarkably, I think this is the one thread he didn't spam yesterday. I noticed he was on and lurking today, but his spam-anator must be busted :o

I have to ask--what are y'all looking at out the window?

I have to ask--what are y'all looking at out the window?

Back at the end of June we had terrible flooding up here (central upstate NY). My older daughter (the one on the far left) was looking out the window, watching the debris float by on the stream beside our house. She yelled come quick look! We all ran to see what she saw, including my 2 year old, who just so happened to be on the potty at the time. My wife came in late, saw what you see there and decided to preserve it for "posterity" so to speak...

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.      
    • trents
      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
