My husband and I watch every week! My favorites are Twitch and Chelsie (sp?). I think it is such a fun show, and I actually like the judges. Anyone else watching it too?

I watch it but am not so thrilled with it this year. Perhaps because I don't know anyone who is on it. There was one girl who used to be at daughter's studio who came close to getting on it, but her roommate made it instead. And although I don't personally know Ivan from a couple of years ago, I do know his sister. She is also at daughter's studio.

I love that show and watch it religiously. I am bummed though, because the phone lines were not working last night, i gave up and went to bed. I love Twitch and Joshua, Courtney and Katee are my favorite girls. Will is just beautiful and an amazing dancer. I hope Comfort gets voted off tonight, I really don't feel like she's on par with the other dancers.

Whoa!!! Robbed!! I couldn't believe the bottom 2 boys! i am so sad that Will went home. But I didn't really want any of the boys to go home. Well, maybe Mark. Comfort knew it was coming.

The solos are different this year and the judges haven't said anything! Remember the time they yelled at that one guy (last year?) because they said he didn't even practice his solos? Well, this year the only real choreographed-looking routines to me (of course, I'm no expert) were Will's. The others are just doing the same stuff over and over.

I don't like the new judge so much... she's always talking about anything other than the dance she just watched.

I wish I knew a dancer on the show! :) Six degrees...

LOVE IT!!!

I especially like all the routines that Mia Michaels choreographs.

I was really bummed when Kherington got kicked off 2 weeks ago, though. When she and Twitch were partners, they were by far my favorite pair.

My boyfriend and I watch every week and we wish they would have professional dancers on to show what a professional tango or quickstep should actually look like, even though you can find videos of that online elsewhere. We're rooting for Will and still undecided about which girl we like best. I just wish Thane wasn't always so perky and smiling; that can get annoying.

I hated to see Will get voted off. He is an amazing dancer. But at the same time I didn't want to see Twitch go. I pretty much like all the dancers left except Comfort. She's pretty good but just not on the same level as the rest.

Yeah, I'm kind of over Comfort too... she's AMAZING at her own style, but I don't think she's as versatile as the other girls. I'm kind of hoping that Twitch wins the whole thing.

I know! Twitch and Kherrington (sp?) were amazing together. And I have loved Mia Michaels's routines this year... very entertaining! Sometimes she can be a little annoying as a judge, but her choreography is so great! Yeah... Twitch is an Alabama boy and that means I hope he will win, too... but I like Josh too. I think Will was the best technical dancer.

I don't want the show to end! :(

I didn't like the way they announced the bottom 2 guys and girls this week. Usually they bring the final four out on stage and show the clips of their dances and announce who is leaving while they are standing together. Poor Courtney was sitting backstage the other night when she realized that she was in the bottom 2. I felt bad for her....it was kind of anti-climactic. I liked the old way better.

Yeah, you're right, Puddy - I saw the replay last night and that was sad!

What do you guys think? I voted extra for Twitch, but I love Joshua too! I voted for those two and Chelsie and Katee. I told my husband last night that Courtney used to be my favorite but now I'm not sure... and he said it's because she got partnered with Mark, and that all of Mark's partners have been eliminated. I can't remember back to know if that is true, but he should go next, I think. He is a neat dancer, but not on the same level with the other two guys, I don't think. I think Katee is the best female. I think.

I loved the Sonia routine, and of course Tabitha and Napoleon's (they are such a cute couple!). What did you all like from last night?

      iron digestibility

      @glucel, There's a strong correlation between thiamine deficiency, hypoxia, and insomnia. Thiamine is needed to help red blood cells carry oxygen. In thiamine deficiency, hypoxia (lack of oxygen in tissues) occurs, and this can result in insomnia. Hypoxia causes systemic inflammation, increases inflammatory markers, and is associated with cardiovascular...

      Thanks. Not a big thing, particularly because most likely it is "true" but not yet demonstrated.

      Thanks to everybody for your help. I reread the dr's notes from the biopsy procedure and it seems I had worse than atrofied villi. It was termed flattened mucosa. So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation...

      New Research Reveals How Antibody Genes May Shape the Immune Response in Celiac Disease

      Thanks for the thoughtful comment. You are right that the study’s main conclusion was cautious: the researchers found that inherited antibody-gene variants significantly shape the naïve B-cell receptor repertoire, including usage of some gene segments involved in celiac-related antibody responses, but they did not find strong evidence that polymorphisms in...

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      I have osteoporosis and have crushed three vertebrae. I supplement with Lysine, Tryptophan, threonine, calcium, Boron, Vitamins D, A, and K, and the B vitamins (folate, B12, and Thiamine B1 especially for bone health). I tried Fosomax, but it tore up my insides. I prefer the supplements. I feel better and my bones feel stronger. References...

      iron digestibility

      @glucel,  There's a strong correlation between thiamine deficiency, hypoxia, and insomnia.  Thiamine is needed to help red blood cells carry oxygen.  In thiamine deficiency, hypoxia (lack of oxygen in tissues) occurs, and this can result in insomnia. Hypoxia causes systemic inflammation, increases inflammatory markers, and is associated with cardiovascular events.  Curiously, thiamine deficiency is correlated with excessive daytime sleepiness and oversleeping.   I found a combination of Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, magnesium, and L-theanine works very well for inducing sleep.  Sometimes, I add Passion Flower Extract and/or Sweet Melissa.  There's no side effects the next morning with Passion Flower, it just induces sleepiness.  Sweet Melissa is groovy, and has anti-inflammatory effects on the digestive system.   I prefer to take 250 mg Benfotiamine and 100 mg Thiamine TTFD in the mornings and another dose of Benfotiamine at lunch.  I try not to take any thiamine after four p.m. because it keeps my brain so energized and wanting to think... Oh, I do take a combination of another form of thiamine (sulbutiamine), Pyridoxine and Cobalamine for a pain reliever sometimes, but I can sleep after taking that.  But thiamine does help regulate circadian rhythm.   Make sure you're getting Omega Three fats! They'll help you satisfy that late night carb craving with fewer carbs.  Flaxseed oil, olive oil, sunflower seed oil.  Nuts and nut butters, like walnuts and cashews, are good, too, if you can tolerate them.    Try taking the 100mg thiamine HCl before your aerobics and see if there's a difference.  Sweet dreams!

So while iron ferratin levels are normal my bet is, as kitty alluded to, iron not getting into cells. I have dr appointment next mo but don't hold out a lot of hope, There is strong correlation of low red blood cells and insomnia so at least I finally solved that one after few yrs of being mislead. I intend to take stop taking 100 mg b1 at noon time and start 150 mg benfotiamin. I may or may not add the the 100 mg b1evening meal. BTW, last night had 1/3 lb beef. potato then 2 bowls cereal and an apple later in the eve. I generally do my areobics before supper so maybe that contributes to the hunger.

      Coeliac And Cardio Vascular Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Aileen Cregan, I was put on high blood pressure medication, too. But I was able to correct my high blood pressure by supplementing with Thiamine Vitamin B 1.  I am no longer on high blood pressure medication.  I feel much better without the medication. I continue to supplement Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine.   The particular high blood pressure medication I took was Norvasc (amlodipine), which causes thiamine deficiency by blocking thiamine transporters so that thiamine cannot enter cells.  Benfotiamine can get into cells by merging with the cell membrane, thus bypassing nonfunctional thiamine transporters.   Indapamide also blocks thiamine transporters! The use of this type of medications that block thiamine precipitated Wernickes Encephalopathy.  My doctors did not recognize the connection to Thiamine deficiency.  I nearly died.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with Benfotiamine, a fat soluble form of thiamine that bypasses thiamine transporters.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity Assay to check your thiamine levels asap.  Routine blood tests for thiamine are not an accurate measure of  thiamine in the body.   Absorption of essential vitamins like Thiamine is altered in Celiac Disease due to damaged villi, inflammation and dysbiosis.  The Gluten Free diet can be lacking in vitamins and minerals.  Discuss supplementing with all the eight B vitamins,  the four fat soluble vitamins and necessary minerals. Please keep us posted on your progress!
