THREE new gluten-free beers to try!!!!!!

I'm in heaven!!

Man, that must be wonderful. We've got one kind, La Messagere, and it's only available in Quebec. It's also, according to DH, no screaming hell. He now accompanies me in a nightly glass of dry white. He is slowly becoming a girly-man with this dietary change....lots more veggies through the day, very little bread, and HARDLY ANY PHARTING!! Five or six a day, mefinks. :)

More to come .. . .. .trying to de-vortex a bit from yesterday!!!!!!

I hear you...it can be a true detoxification.... :rolleyes::lol:

I found you some Open Original Shared Link, Tom . . . and they are all the rage now, so nobody will be pointing and laughing. Howevah . . . 30 years from now when you are wearing them with your green tube socks and green shorts pulled up to your armpits . . . well, that's a different story.

Tom'll have the last laugh, as he'll be a bizarre-looking millionaire......

Actually, I think I would be out . . . do you realize that if you're not picking out your clothes, you have to wear whatever hideous clothing (color or style) that they give you . . . they could dress you up as a Open Original Shared Link . . if I got to pick out my own, I'd do it.

Well, perhaps one could have some input with clothing style. I'll run it past Jack when he gets home. Get back to ya. :lol:

Well, I sent him to school!!! Yes!! That's right!!

Good one, Janet. If they're well enough to be chasing gremlins, they can be sitting semi-conscious at their school desks... :lol:

...Aren't gremlins green?......

Speaking of greenness, and school, when my DD was in grade two I drove her up to school one morning as she complained of a "swirly tummy" and constantly pleaded to stay home and watch movies. I stopped in front of the school, she opened the car door, complaining and whining, got out and trudged to the school door. I started to pull away and as I glanced once more at the door, I saw her just closing it behind her, and her head suddenly snapping forward. Vomit...all over the front hallway. :o

So. She watched movies all day, after all.

Thank goodness I've never done anything like that!!! :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

A friend of mine is turning 40 and her hubby is throwing a party. Here are some quotes that were on the invitation:

At the age of 20, we don't care what the world thinks of us; at 30, we worry about what it is thinking of us; at 40, we discover that it wasn't thinking of us at all.

Life begins at 40 - but so do fallen arches, rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story to the same person, three or four times.

The best years of a woman's life - the ten years between 39 and 40.

I think our dingoduo will BOTH enjoy the Buble show - dare I say immensely? No flask req'd.

Man, that must be wonderful. We've got one kind, La Messagere, and it's only available in Quebec.

Aha!!!!! Once at an esp LARGE BevMo I was looking for it. :angry: Bah!

.. . .and HARDLY ANY PHARTING!! Five or six a day, mefinks. :)

So he's sold on the gluten-free diet??? (Or just everyone else w/in range is sold?)

Well, perhaps one could have some input with clothing style. I'll run it past Jack when he gets home. Get back to ya. :lol:

I thought was a given. Someone else may like lime green!!! :ph34r:

There are greens that can create the sensation of pain in the unfortunate observer's retinal penumbra, so to speak!! :blink: :blink:

Funny from mom:

Ethel was a bit of a demon in her wheelchair, and loved to charge around the nursing home, taking corners on one wheel and getting up to maximum speed on the long corridors.

Because the poor woman was one sandwich short of a picnic ' the other residents tolerated her and some of them actually joined in.

One day Ethel was speeding up one corridor when a door opened ! and Koo ky Clarence stepped out with his arm outstretched. 'STOP!' he shouted in a firm voice. 'Have you got a license for that thing?'

Ethel fished around in her handbag and pulled out a Kit Kat wrapper and held it up to him. 'OK' he said, and away Ethel sped down the hall.

As she took the corner near the TV lounge on one wheel, weird Harold popped out in front of her and shouted 'STOP! Have you got proof of insurance?'

Ethel dug into her handbag, pulled out a drink coaster and held it up to him. Harold nodded and said 'On your way, Ma'am.'

As Ethel neared the final corridor, Crazy Craig stepped out in front of her, Buck- Naked, and holding his 'You-Know-What' in his hand.

Oh, good grief,' yelled Ethel, 'Not that Damn Breathalyzer Test again!'

Since the assigned day for the First Absinthe-Enlightened Royal Inaugural Event is decidedly dis-static, I deign that Dingy's & SquatsW/Same shall participate prior to The Play!!!!!!!

(Isn't there a BevMo in town??)

Just one or two tho - Oscar Wilde's quote is that "One drink & you see things as you wish they were. Two drinks & you see things as they are not"

I should think EYE-thur should suffice.

prior participation is a must ! and such sound advice should not go unheaded! ;)

Squats - I like your new av. My MaggieDog used to sit like that on stairs sometimes. Always cracked me up when she did that.

Front St Pub does serve the best seafood in Santa Cruz. That area has changed so much over the years. From the time our highschool group could drive, we would either head to santa cruz or up to stinson beach.

Open Original Shared Link

it really is amazing to see the changes in both places.

where did you grow up Tom?

Grew up in Chicago but started visiting s.Cruz in '88 after <shudder> moving to Salinas from Tucson after college. Moved to SJ area 2 yrs later.

I do remember pre-earthquake s.Cruz.

Monterey's Cannery Row has changed more, for my money. Hate that big complex @ Cannery Row that blocks the view from the Wherehouse, above Doc Rickett's.

Only saw Stinson once, but have heard many good things.

Front St. Pub vanished ~4yrs ago. :(

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

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

      @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...

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      @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/

      By Jane02 · Posted

      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!
