Recommended Posts

I want to make some treats with my kids but i need them to be free from gluten casein and soy. I was going to make popcorn balls but most recipes ask for butter.

any ideas would be appreciated

How about bobbing for apples? :lol:

I only did it once as a kid... but it was really fun! Gluten-free, casein-free, soy-free fun :)

Brittle. I like pumpkin seed brittle. All you really need is sugar. Anything else is negotiable.

On that note, Trio bars (at costco) are GFCFSF. So are Jocalat (Lara) Bars. I know those are already made, but Trio bars are similar to multi-seed/nut brittle, and Jocolat are similar to raw "brownies." If you like those, you can try making them easily.

Oh, and these cookies are really good, if you can eat peanuts and eggs. I've also made them with almond butter. Just make sure it's natural (just ground nuts) because that's the bulk of the cookie.

PB cookies

1 c crunchy all natural peanut butter (pour off extra fat)

1 c brown sugar (or less)

1 t vanilla

1 egg

1/2 t salt

1 t baking soda

2 T gluten free flour

preheat 350. mix together. form into 1T balls. should make 12 cookies. press with fork to make criss crosses. place in fridge for 5 min if you don't want them to spread too much. bake about 10-15 min till golden brown. if you want softer bake less and more crumbly bake longer.

This post is probably late and I don't know if candycorn is SF but you can take the thin clear plasic gloves and place one candycorn point side down in each finger for fingernails and then fill up the rest of the glove with the popcorn and tie at the wrist with a ribbon.

What about roasting pumpkin seeds? We used to do this all the time when I was little with the seeds from the pumpkins we carved. You can make them really really spicy with lots of different herbs, sweet, or just simple and natural with a little salt. *Use oil instead of butter:

Sometimes you just need a creative name. We are having body parts soup tonight. Really just meatballs(eyes), gluten-free elbow macaroni (ribs) and whatever else I can think up.

How about the easiest peanut butter cookies EVER!

1 cup sugar

1 cup peanut butter, or other nut butter

1 egg

Mix all together and bake at 350 until done.

(optional)- add some Enjoy Life chocolate chips. They are dairy free, gluten free, soy free, and nut free!

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.
