good question, we are getting one soon.

If that link doesn't work, you can probably find it in the restaurants section - look at dec 2006 timeframe.

One warning since food intolerances run in clusters in some people. The ones around northern VA have a basket of peanuts and shells tend to scatter so avoid this place if you have a peanut allergy also.

We just got one and I love it. The fries, especially, if you haven't had fast food fries in a while and can handle peanut oil. The fries are just potatoes fried in peanut oil, nothing else is fried in the oil, and if you ask for regular fries to go and nothing else you get a whopping massive amount. The burgers are good, get them without the bun, but for me the fries are the attraction. I hadn't had fast food fries in 3 years, and although they are not like McDonald's or Wendy's fries, they are pretty darn good. I was going to save half of that massive first purchase, but they were so good I ate them all. Unfortunately they opened up next to Curves so I worked out this morning to the aroma of frying onions and left to the smell of bacon. Good thing Five Guys wasn't open yet or I would have completely negated my workout.

We have a 5 guys here in knoxville, tn and it is really good. the first time i are there the register guy actually had a sister with celaic so he totally understood what i could and could not have. however, the last time i ate there all i had was a burger and it got C.C., even though i made sure to tell the girl at the register and i got really sick. i still eat there but i try to clarify even more so now

      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!

      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
