Mornin Judith B) Hope you get to that meeting and have a great time!

Amanda--you sound swamped! :( Hope things settle down at work and I especially hope that John gets some answers as to what's been wrong. You're both in me thoughts :)

Pataughmn!!! SO good to see you, but wish things were going better for you, too. There are times when I wish I didn't have to eat at all--ugh :angry:

Lee-saugh--I get the BeFreeForMe's too :D

Sillies-

I know you are all skilled in the kitchen--well better than me.

Anyone have a recipe for homemade garlic herb sauce for pasta?? I am hoping to find something so I can make it for me and John,

BTW I am taking this gluten-free cooking class next week. I am excited.

Thought for the Day from BeFreeForME.com........

"Life expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon."

- Doug Larson

American Columnist

:D

Ahhhhh..LUV IT!!! I'd be eating lots more veggies if that was the case...and would actually enjoy them in the process!!! When I was growing up (in a large family), bacon was a real treat. When mom fixed it we got generally 2 pieces of bacon....just not enough!!! When I moved out on my own, I had a real brainstorm....I could buy a pound of bacon and have as much as I wanted. SO....I proceeded to eat the whole dang thing...got really sick on it...and couldn't touch bacon for a loooooonggg time :P . I have, however, overcome this insanity and love bacon again!! In moderation, of course! :lol:

oooohhhh, Tickle Tawm.....you need some tickle therapy....I guess. Wish so much I had some answers for you! Food and eating become a real problem in this house. Telehubby loves to eat, and would love to have meals already planned and fixed for him....which I do a great deal of the time. The problem is that MOST of the time I could not care less IF I ate, much less what and when! Puts a real hamper of the planning part!

Am keeping us all in prayer for healing, for happy positive outlooks, for satisfaction in our daily lives. ;)

I have been so stressed this last hour and this just made me laugh! Can one also purchase dangling members on this Ebay function as well?

I heard someone in the office here mentioned someone have kidney stones and they were talking about the surgical removal and it was a male patient and they used the term shaft.....had me chuckle!

Oh. One can actually purchase a thing that is solely designed for shooting marshmallows?? Man, what I've missed. . . . . . ... ... :lol: When and at what does one shoot marshmallows? (besides at a parade, of course) Stealthfully, at neighboUrs? At the cat? Out in the rain?

I did not know such a thing existed, but I DO know that I should be procuring one for my dad as he sits in his hospital room.....what a terrific thing to behold, my dad blasting marshmallows at old patients passing by with their walkers, or at the uptight nurses who charge in to test his blood. This would motivate him to get up and over to his window.....start firing marshmallows at cars whizzing by, or orderlies out on their break. .. . . . ..

'Tis a fabulous idea for rehabilitation.....gonna check ebay.

Reminds of a bus ride. The island bus is small, and we all know each other. One evening this guy gets on the bus with a piece of PVC piping. Another guy looks at the pipe for a few minutes, then says: potato gun?

First guy says: yep.

Second guy thinks for a minute and says: wife outta town?

First guy grins and says: yep.

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

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
