I saw this on the news this morning and thought this a nice way to support our fallen and wounded warriors. Just in case others might be interested I thought I would give some info and a link to their website. They must be being slammed with orders this morning as the site was quite slow but with patience I was able to order mine.

"$1 from each battlesaint.com bracelet purchase will be donated to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. Our goal was to keep the price of the bracelet very affordable, commit to a $1 donation, and allow more people to be involved in this project. Information on the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund and the amazing work they are doing in support of our service members is shown below. Additional donations are accepted on The Intrepid Fallen Heroes website (link below), if desired.

Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund

The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund was established officially as an independent not-for-profit organization in 2003. Through 2005, the Fund provided close to $20 million to families of United States military personnel lost in performance of their duty, mostly in service in Iraq and Afghanistan. All payments were coordinated with the casualty offices of the Armed Forces, to ensure that all families received these benefits. In 2005 federal legislation substantially increased the benefits granted to these families. With the needs of these families now being supported much more substantially, the Fund turned to the next area of the military community needing help: our wounded warriors."

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Some backup to my statement about gluten and milk. Some background. When my son was born in 1976 he was colicky from the beginning. When he transitioned to formula it got really bad. That's when we found the only pediactric gastroenterologist (in a population of 6 million that dealt with Celiac Disease (and he only had 14 patients with celiac disease...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.

      Some backup to my statement about gluten and milk. Some background.  When my son was born in 1976 he was colicky from the beginning.  When he transitioned to formula it got really bad.  That's when we found the only pediactric gastroenterologist (in a population of 6 million that dealt with Celiac Disease (and he only had 14 patients with celiac disease), who dianosed by biopsy and started him on Nutramegen.  Recovery was quick. The portion of gluten that passes through to breastmilk is called gliadin. It is the component of gluten that causes celiac disease or gluten intolerance. What are the Effects of Gluten in Breastmilk? Gliaden, a component of gluten which is typically responsible for the intestinal reaction of gluten, DOES pass through breast milk.  This is because gliaden (as one of many food proteins) passes through the lining of your small intestine into your blood. Can gluten transmit through breast milk?

My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion
