A Very Good Segment On Celiac Today........

Just as I was getting ready to leave for work, my sweetie says, "Celica disease is on the news!" It was the best I have seen so far. A local doctor was telling about celiac disease, he was giving the correct info to the public, wasn't afraid to mention the stomach issues, and he even said that maybe as many as 80% of patients that come through his door should be tested. He mentioned the different diseases that many get before they know they should be gluten free, he even mentioned stomach cancer. All in maybe 5 mins. Was very good.

The best part, this man is just 40 mins from me--I may just call for an appointment. This is what we found on www.news12.com website. Do not bother trying to connect to the site, you must have cablevision and your own password from them to use it--that's why we copied and pasted it for you:

Celiac Disease

The only absolutely certain test for celiac is an intestinal biopsy. But many holistic physicians rely on the IgG Elisa and FICA test. It's a relatively recent breakthrough in the field of food allergy testing that uses a simple finger prick to extract blood. Unlike the IgE test which measures immediate reactions, the IgG test measures delayed responses to a food.

Look for a holistic medical doctor or a nutritionally oriented chiropractor:

Stores selling Gluten Free pastas, breads, cereals, cakes and crackers:

Dr. B Well Naturally

Plainview

Wild By Nature

Huntington, Setauket, and Hampton Bays locations

Whole Foods

Manhasset and Jericho locations

Many small health food stores also carry gluten free pancake mix, pastas...etc.

Yes, he is a holistic physician, yet at this time I would love to have a doctor that knows more than I do about celiac disease. The one who was interviewed was Dr. Richard Linchitz.

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.

      I believe the GFCO does use a common logo for certified gluten free products (those containing not more that 10ppm of gluten) but nothing universal yet from the FDA for standard gluten free products (those containing not more that 20ppm).

      I have a One Pot and decided to start using it one day. I was hesitant at first making my own yogurt, but was surprised at how easy it was. I like mine better too.

      Because I spend so much time reading every word on all food packaging, I personally would greatly appreciate it if there was one common gluten-free symbol written in large-enough text, and always located in the same place. That alone will make shopping easier and faster. I dread having to buy packaged food. Thank you very much for asking,

      I do believe that people are under so much pressure up have a sleeping  pattern ,  with working and how households work these days , but in reality there is no wrong or right at to sleep , I believe your neighbour showed this with such a long life , I do exactly the same  at night many times so I hope I live into my nineties also , I have found one thing in life your body knows what's best so good to listen to wat it needs however unconventional that maybe 🤗
