Richard, can you swing anything, here?

Sorry, I don't do emoticons. I will, however put Susie's party back up. :)

Why . . . that's a lovely party, Susie.

However, Julie and Carrot Top (and you, of course) are the only ones I can tell for sure who they are . . . Who's the guy with the big thumb and the guy with his pants undone?

<embarassed> This isn't Susan, it's Richard

The guy with the big thumb is the newest presidential candidate - Open Original Shared Link

The shirtless wonder is Matthew McConaughy (per Susan's request). I couldn't find a picture of him where sushi was being served off his abs, so that had to suffice. :huh:

Yes, but it's Susie's party isn't it? :lol::lol:

Actually, I fell into the same trap as some of the others . . . must read names, must read names, pictures mean nothing, pictures mean nothing

Ahhhhh, so it is. No trouble finding a photo of him shirtless, I take it.

Terribly sorry that I didn't recognize Stephen Colbert. I wasn't expecting to see him today.

....hmmmmm...define "work". I did spend a whole hour away from my computer (and you lunatics).

I do manage to squeeze in a few productive moments during my workday. The truth is I work in a college financial aid office, and my workload is intense at times and negligible at others. Right now happens to be a slow period. If you recall you didn't see much of me for about 6 mos. I changed positions and had to do a ton of training to get up to speed for "opening" and the start of classes. Mid-semester is traditionally slow. I'll start to flake out come december. :) That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

(I did do some work related activities today B) )

Behave yourselves tonight ;)

That shirtless wonder is not Matthew McConnaughy. It's my father. He was portraying M.M. in a skit recently about Hollywood sex symbols. Not a bad makeup department, huh?

That's neat. I think I have really got to know you in this thread in the past few days. I work all day in a hospital, where I do Clinical Trials with Cancer Patients. It has its days. I used to work as a lab tech processing bloodwork in the lab....those were crazy days too.

All this talk of work....I need a REAL job, harrumphFFFFFFFFFF :angry:

I am missing my jewelry deadline. another harrumph. :( At least it was a deadline I imposed on myself (mom doesn't care, it was MY idea for her to wear a fine necklace for an important event today. Boo)

Now going to run the dingos, see if I can find my mojo, or any stragglers from our parade, in the orchard.

BAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richard, do they look at your search history at work?

I can't imagine what they'll think when they find Chuck Norris, Mathew McConaughy, Care Bears, Gene Simmons, Yeti.........

If you recall you didn't see much of me for about 6 mos

Great to have you back! I disappeared for about 8 months and it's like I never left..........weird how that happens, this is a strange vortex indeed.

So happy to be at your party Susie Q! Are we going to have to fight over who gets Carrot Top? :lol::lol:

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

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein. Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat...

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3. Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C. Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine. Weight...

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6.

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
