I don't like watching sports except gymnastics and ice skating. I am SO way more a participant.

I do gymnastics (highest floor start value in my gym, but lowest on bars, whee), aikido, have attempted basketball but am too short, and will give most anything a shot at least once.

Too hyper to just sit and watch though, so I don't have teams or anything that I follow.

I voted for ice hockey. Winter sports are the only ones that are taken seriously where i grew up. small town in northern minnesota. I grew up either figure skating and playing hockey with the boys for a few years. However I don't like pro hockey at all!!! it seems as though the players lose their love for the game once they are getting paid millions. But college hockey different story!!! Go minnesota Golden Gophers!!!

I also like running. its really relaxing to me.

love watching nascar

oh also love skiing (cross country)

and I am starting to get into football and baseball of course the vikings and the twins

GO TWINS!!!

unfortunately I'm a philly fan.. I figure that with a little luck, there should be one championship in the next 50 years for either the Eagles or Phillies

I only really closely follow the NFL, MLB, and college basketball... I haven't cared much for the NBA since the strike in the late 90s but I still know enough about it and watch some playoff games...

as for playing sports, basketball hands down is my favorite sport to play..

I didn't vote. I don't really like competitive sports. What I really love is to go trail riding! My mom and I will take our horses to the BEAUTIFUL state parks here in oregon. Years ago, I trained my horse in jumping, dressage, gaming, and just about everything else we could find to do. When I got sick he was (and still is) most of my physical activity. I fall asleep a lot, and he will notice and just stop and wait, things like that. Riding, even for 5 min, anything like that it's my favorite. :)

The best kind of "sport" is u and an equine buddy in a beautiful forrest. Fresh air, physical activity, and snacks (gluten-free ofc!). Ahhhhhhh. If it weren't nearly 2am I'd go right now!

My favorite sport is gymnastics. Kassiane - what level are you? I just started doing gymnastics again (I'm 24), except my best event is bars and my worst is floor! I watch gymnastics, coach gymnastics and do gymnastics.

I also bike, go rock climbing, ice skate, golf, water ski. And I want to start snowboarding this winter.

I love watching hockey. My favorite team is the Univeristy of Wisconsin - I went to school there.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      Sigh. I posted this yesterday based on the Safeway website. I went back again today to their website to double check. On the page where they are selling Vanilla Bean flavor, it has a distinct Certified Gluten Free label. Other flavors on the Safeway website didn't have the gluten-free statement. Today I went into the store. None of the flavors I looked at, including Vanilla Bean, have a Gluten Free statement. Is it safe? Who knows. The ingredients are either safe or nearly safe (some have "natural flavor"). There are warnings about "contains milk and soy" but not about wheat - this implies they are safe, but again, who knows. On the other hand, every flavor I checked of their Slow Churn line of ice creams has wheat as an ingredient. 100% not safe.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      Do keep in mind that many of the newly diagnosed have lactose intolerance.  This is because the villi lining the intestinal tract are damaged, and can no longer make the enzyme lactAse which breaks down the milk sugar lactOse.  When the villi grow back (six months to two years), they can again produce the enzyme lactAse, and lactose intolerance is resolved.  However, some people (both those with and without Celiac Disease) are genetically programmed to stop producing lactase as they age.   Do be aware that many processed foods, including ice cream, use Microbial Transglutaminase, a food additive commonly called "meat glue," used to enhance texture and flavor.  This microbial transglutaminase has the same immunogenicity as tissue transglutaminase which the body produces in response to gluten in people with Celiac Disease.  Tissue Transglutaminase (tTg IgA) is measured to diagnose Celiac Disease in blood tests.  Microbial Transglutaminase acts the same as Tissue Transglutaminase, causing increased intestinal permeability and inflammation.   New findings show that microbial transglutaminase may be able to trigger Celiac Disease and other autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.   Microbial Transglutaminase is not required to be listed on ingredients labels as it's considered a processing aid, not an ingredient in the U.S.  Microbial Transglutaminase has been GRAS for many years, but that GRAS standing is being questioned more and more as the immunogenicity of microbial transglutaminase is being discovered. Interesting Reading:  Microbial Transglutaminase Is a Very Frequently Used Food Additive and Is a Potential Inducer of Autoimmune/Neurodegenerative Diseases https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8537092/

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/
