This made me laugh so hard apple juice almost came out of my nose . . . good thing I wasn't eating linguini!

He had a flat bum and a round little belly,

and gas that was really quite awful and smelly

He was sleepy and sad, and feeling quite lame,

And I knew when I saw him it was gluten to blame!

Well, speaking of CHUCK.......

Open Original Shared Link

The book capitalizes on "mythical facts" that have been circulating on the Internet since 2005 that poke fun at Norris' tough-guy image and super-human abilities, the suit said.

It includes such humorous "facts" as "Chuck Norris's tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried" and "Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits," the suit said, as well as "Chuck Norris can charge a cell phone by rubbing it against his beard."

"Some of the 'facts' in the book are racist, lewd or portray Mr. Norris as engaged in illegal activities," the lawsuit alleges.

Amanda, Sabrina is so adorable!!!

Susie, maybe you should make a spare copy of the Stepford's key, just in case. :ph34r:

I loooooove all the poetry!

:( ugh my Mad PM'er is at it again.

Oh my gawd! I can't believe you're still being harassed over this! This is lame. As you said, you briefly corrected, and replied to the post. No reason for anyone to get their panties in a twist. Wasn't argumentative at all, needlessly or not. Your posts are as helpful as anyone else's.

Tom, I emailed you :)

Everybody--I got glutened today at Starbucks :angry: It had to be there, as the reaction started at 2PM--exactly 2 hours after I left.....that's my like-clockwork reaction time. I only had tea, as usual, but she must have handled baked goods and then my tea bag/cup.

Anyway, I had a lot to do today, so I took some Immodium. Except for one (!) extra bathroom stop and WW3 going on in my intestines, I did pretty well.

Couldn't stomach anything but soup tonight, and am actually feeling better as the night goes on.

Boo, that sucks! :(:angry:

My new favourite when I'm sick is warm gingerale . . . quite soothing. But the diet stuff takes on a weird taste when heated so regular is better. That and frozen Pedialyte are my saviours when glutened. I hope you feel better ASAP -- and 100% by Christmas morning.

Thank you for the quick replies.

Patti,

I am SO SORRY you got glutened today, and with all that needs to be done this time of year, Harrumph (my first harrumph and I don't know if I am spelling it right? :lol: ), so not what you needed!

Glad you were a little better tonight, hope tomorrow you are all back to normal :D

Heeheehee :lol: I've been under the impression there's a great deal of leigh-weigh in one's harrr-Rummphing, but I'm certain I should leave the final call to the more experienced harrumpher-ers. ;)

Good Morning, all!

Are you better Patti? I felt a slight glutening, myself, yesterday, and can't exactly trace the source. Odd...I wasn't even pulling any gluteny noodles out of my DD's nose...

I have something to report to you all...yesterday, as I was fighting my way through the mall, I glanced at the Santa sitting in his big chair, with a line-up of VERY last-minute kids in tow. I never really look at these guys, but for some reason I was transfixed on his face. It was quite...hairy.

Hat pulled way down...and although I never saw him stand up, he was REALLY big. Not speaking, just nodding, and shoving the kids off his lap rather quickly. He looked....drugged, or as if electricity had jolted through him. And whoever had measured this guy's inseam had fouled up MOST egregiously--pants were not nearly long enough.

His little elf helpers seemed a bit uneasy around him. Now, I just keep wondering...

Could it have been?.....

Good Morning Everyone!

Boy is it a dreary looking day outside. I know we need to get a lot of holiday shopping done today, laundry done as well, we both work tomorrow, as much as that sucks....I am with good company so it will be more of a day of fun than anything. I only work till 2:30.

Anyone else traveling for the holiday?

Merry Christmas Eve Eve . . . Sillies!!!

We are in lurvely Virginia. Not too bad of a drive. Wittnessed a (mild) fender bender in Wheeling, WV. Hubby gave the guy our name and address in case he had any problems with insurance or the other party or whatever (it looked like it would go smoothly - nobody was over-reacting). Anyway, turns out the guy lives about 5 miles from us . . . go figure.

Busy, busy getting ready so didn't post and then traveling so didn't post. Really enjoyed the Christmas rhymes. Alex, my son really likes your snowman and looked longingly outside at damp, dead grass - not a spec of snow here.

So I missed the Tom's post . . . Tom, you will have to PM me. Stuff like that drives me mad. If I was a cat, curiosity would have killed me nine times over.

Amanda - what a cutie Sabrina is and what lovely people your parents are.

What else have I forgotten . . . who knows? Need to dash, the action is starting. I'll be in and out over the next week.

Hey, did someboy call me a reindeer?

Darn210 Enthusiast

WHATTTT????!!!!??? Tom and Sarah are naked!!!! Watch it you guys!! People are going to talk!!!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I missed the naked part too! I was too tired last night and fell asleep early before any of the action started.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
