Peanut butter and honey on a rice cake with steamed carrots.

I fell asleep on the couch on accident (so didn't plan it) and forgot to lay some meat out. I did remember to run the dishwasher though.

I'm having Tinkyada brown rice spaghetti-style pasta with doctored-up ready-made spaghetti sauce that I've had stashed in my freezer in single serving sizes. Yum! This time I'm trying the quick cook

That would just be a little snack for me - my stomach seems to be a bottomless hole! :lol:

If i eat too much my GERD acts up bad, if i eat too little it does the same. I've found some balance at least. I will admit i've eaten very little today. I've been slowly trying to increase what i eat, but yeah.... its been hard.

I might munch on something else, but i doubt it.

Pot roast with butternut squash, baby greens with homemade ranch dressing, and cold fried apples.

Yes, I make pot roast about once a week. I have a condition. :ph34r:

I had pot roast tonight too. I had a roast (not pot roast though :( ) two nights ago. If it is a condition I have it pretty bad. I hope there is no cure and I am okay with it worsening over time. I had a baked potato and carrots with mine. Slathered that tater with fresh butter from raw milk. Slathered everything else in copious amounts of gravy.

Following this with a fat old slice of chocolate cake with chocolate mint icing in a bit. No nuts, beans, regular dairy, whole eggs? No problem!

I'll try to make a chinese beef thingy with chopped beef, onions, gluten-free soy sauce (for realz), black pepper, garlic and carrots.

Grain free diet is working very well insofar, and I still got to eat tons of yummy stuff, and I go throughout the day with my stomach flat as a ruler. The constipation has not yet resolved completely, but I will wait and see.

i'm planning on adding cabbage and carrots to it (i do eat other veggies btw, broccoli, squash, califlower, ect, but i adore this combo and its kinda cheap eats).

I'm proud of myself. By 3:30 i had the meat cut up, browned, and the stalk going. Yay! So i'll be able to eat dinner at a decent time.

Leftovers. Because pot roast and gravy never gets old. I also need something quick and easy, tonight is my cheese making class, so excited!

I'm drinking raw milk because it isn't contaminated with iodine. Other than that I am dairy free. I already know how to make my own butter thanks to being a farm girl but I'm cheese free until I learn to make some. Lucky me the store I buy my milk at is having a cheese making class tonight. I'm such a cheese addict. I've always suspected I have a dairy issue because it makes me gassy, but this raw milk doesn't. Raw milk also contains lactase, which processed milk doesn't. So I guess there is my answer, I am lactose intolerant. I suppose I'll have to stick with raw milk for life. Oh woe is me. :lol:

I'm clarifying my statement. I don't mean to say all raw milk or anything like that. I simply mean the raw milk that I am able to buy isn't contaminated with iodine. I don't want someone to wander along, read this and think gee, raw milk is iodine free and go buy some that isn't. It simply isn't true of all raw milk.

I'm wondering, Addy, where in the milk-producing process is iodine added?

Iodine is not an issue for me so I never had to research it, am now very

curious. :D

I believe they clean the udders with it.

At any rate, leftovers for dinner.

A betadine wash is generally used to clean the cows. It doesn't hurt anything to just leave it on them, and so that is what happens. The diary I use washes the cows twice to get it off of them. I was shocked that this was something I didn't know before having grown up in a close knit farming community in PA. Of course, many there simply have very small farms and sell raw milk also so maybe they don't do it.

Chicken salads tonight. I'm thinking I may make my husband grab me a can of pumpkin on his way home and we'll make some pumpkin milkshakes. Not exactly first measurable snow fare, but its what I planned without checking weather reports.

      @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...

      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

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @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!
