I thought it was a man, as he has hairy legs, but then again, some women like to go this route....

okay guys.... should I go back and read this thread? or just giggle to myself with all kinds of speculative thoughts the next time hubs has an Altoid?

If I remember and understand the concept correctly, it wouldn't be him partaking of the Altoid. B)

Your memory is fine, Patti. ;)

As I recall, two Altoids was determined to be the optimal quantity.

I tried to find this Altoid thread. I used the google, and there are a lot of Alroid mentions. All the ones I had time to look at had only the G rated useage of the little mints. One made mention to another thread with other usages. I ran out of time.

Well, after about the fourth page, things were getting pretty raunchy. I remember Scott stepping in with a group warning (perhaps Poeter, too?), and then the thread was pulled from view.

Whoever started the thread wanted to know if Altoids were gluten-free, as she was celiac and recently being asked by her boyfriend to regularly consume them... . .. . . ..

Pholks, the original, explicit Altoids thread was deleted years ago. It lives on in the memory of some old-timers.

Drats! Tho we have had some discussions of whether certain other types of lotions with flavors and protective devices were gluten-free.

The regular Altoids were definitely gluten-free. As was the other ingested material. :ph34r:

This is a hard issue to come to terms with, and that sucks. We can't just blow it away. :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      Am I nuts?

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
