My mom just finished cooking the wheat for xmas (just for her and dad to eat, not even for the whole family haha) and she was bugging me if I want to taste some. I said ya sure, if you want to kill me :lol: At least I got a good laugh out of it...but it honestly smelled like s*** :P .

Now hopefully DURING xmas the rest of my family doesn't seriously ask me if I want any. I kinda hate it when it gets passed around the table with the bowls and well...I'm the only one with an empty bowl.

Anyone else not like seeing it??

Well my mom in that sense is extra careful, she doesn't want me to be near her table when she's cooking with flour because she's scared I might inhale some flour, but it does bother me when there's something that has gluten and that I know is really yummy and I can't have it, for example bread rolls that smell so wonderful and I have to sit and watch everyone eat them, I don't even bother taking my own bread because its not nearly as good and since i have o watch my carbs because of diabetes i would rather get my carbs from something other than gluten-free bread, but yeah I definitely miss the good bread.

I so understand what you are saying!!! My MIL has been living us for just about 14 weeks... (can't wait for her to get her own place) and she just doesn't get it. I had Christmas dinner and snacks all planned out.. and she went and ordered a bunch of stuff that I cannot even eat!!! and I have to figure out where to put it all!! She ordered some kind of meat wrapped in philo dough, a ton of pastries (looks way to dry to me anyway) cheese cackes.. scones, and I just don't remember what else!! But needless to say I didn't put any of her stuff out, and my husband supported me... because we had already planned what WE were serving at our house, and she just can't over rule us!! She even opend on of the boxes of pastries in front of me and offered me some, and I said no thank you it will make me sick, she rolled her eyes, and said "oh I am sorry"

I think she is secretly trying to poison me hee hee... JK!!

LOL! I know what you mean. We had a big dinner at my Aunts on Christmas Eve. We had our own safe food, but there was lots of gluten food. My aunt made my favorite rolls from pre- gluten-free days, and she burned them! I just smiled a little because I felt better knowing I wouldn't be missing anything!

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
