Ha! No problem on the updates :D

Yeah, about this magical power--I musta been behind the door when it was passed out! :P

I was hoping that Peter wouldn't reveal our magical powers. I actually posted that, but edited because there is always someone who jumps up your arsenal.

Moi? I don't tell tales out of school. Clearly, veggienft (see the Open Original Shared Link) believes we have far more power than we actually do.

But we do what we can. B)

Guys sorry for the delay in posting my organic answer....I am simply pooped from work and I just died on the couch when I got home....

Anyway the reason I asked about the Organic is another member posted in a different thread that It is stupid to not buy organic.....this member always rubs me the wrong way and I just wondered how many people do buy organic....

anyway off to bed night sillies and thanks for always letting me vent :)

There's 4 or 5 members who flat-out irritate the crap out of me. :P I generally do the Jess thing, and don't let myself reply. :rolleyes:

As for eating organic... yeah, like I said... I'm looking for ways to shrink my grocery bill, not inflate it. <_<

AGREED on the irritating people. I had a much longer post bemoaning my annoyance with so many non-Sillyville posts/posters lately but it was kind of crazily rambling and a little too angry I think so I quickly got rid of it.

I'm pretty much the same with everyone else here on the whole organic issue. I occasionally buy organic things but certainly don't go out of my way to do so. Saying that it is stupid to not buy all organic stinks of elitism and blurs what should be a clear line between personal opinion and scientific fact and those are two things that really get on my nerves.

Morning, Sillies!

Well, at 6:45 this morning, I hear loud clomping around and banging on my roof - - yep, the guys are back, there's presently NO rain falling, so off they go again. I quietly went over to my back hedge at 6:00 and interrupted Mr. Chow in full Early Sun Pose. I asked him if he knew any pose that would keep rain away....like the classic aboriginal rain dance. Nope. He GREETS rain, if you can imagine.......what in hell good is that? <_<:rolleyes:

Moi? I don't tell tales out of school. Clearly, veggienft (see the Open Original Shared Link) believes we have far more power than we actually do.

I dunno, PeOter.......there's something so..... . .calmly strong and all-encompassing about you mods.....Patti just RADIATED a silent power when we met. :DB) I really do need a couple of you in my day to day life, to delete regrettable said things, to issue warnings when they are clearly needed, and to report my kids to me when they are sneakily doing heinous things..... <_<:lol:

Glad to see you, Alex! How's married life? (If anything belongs on a Silly thread, it's that). How is Colin?

Organic food......crazy at times. Half the time one isn't positive the produce really IS organic...pesticides from the neighboUring, normal farm can blow over and "infect" the pristine organic crops......and fer all dat money. Organic bananas - - 99 cents a pound! :o

Morning Sillies!

Well I am glad it is not me who also has trouble with some people. I understand everyone is entitled to their own views and opinions but some people around here push their views and that is exactly how my MIL is with religion and such....it is very annoying, so annoying in fact that she lives 5 minutes down the road and I have not seen her since Memorial Day.

Its finally Friday!!!!!! And tonight we are going to the casino...cross your fingers that we win something....LOL! Guess it is time to start some work. Alot of people are out of the office today including the boss, so I may check in more frequently....when the cats away the mice will play!

I agree. It's really, seriously irritating.

Well said!!! I can't stand it when people state their personal opinion as fact. It seriously drives me up the wall. The arrogance... makes me want to barph.

Well, the boys had a friend sleep over last night-- my friend's son who I was telling you guys about. This was the first time they've had a friend sleep over. My boys slept over there one night last month. I have to say, last night wasn't nearly as bad as I feared. :P

They were all in sleeping bags watching movies by 10:30, and konked out by midnight. And they didn't get up at the butt crack of dawn, either. I consider myself lucky. :lol:

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
