Well, this is kind of after the fact....but my husband and I, both having science backgrounds, have become interested in genetic testing more out of curiosity than anything else. [i have been gluten free for about 6 yrs and dairy free for over 40 yrs.] I am looking at both Prometheus Lab and Enterolab's cheek swab genetic tests and wondering which of the two labs is better. There is quite a difference in cost. Anyone with a suggestion?

Food for thought, Enterolab can't recieve tests from Maryland or New York... Back in January (2011) I checked into it...

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially...

      What would you do - neighbor brought gluten-free pizza from Papa Murphy's

      With the wide availability of frozen prepared gluten-free pizzas, for example DiGiorno's, it's probably best to avoid the risk of eating pizza in restaurants that also make regular pizza.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I will only add that one should never do 50k IU daily of vitamin D without being advised to do so by your doctor, and only if they are closely monitoring your vitamin D levels over the time you are doing this.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially beneficial in areas with well water or known contamination concerns. While RO systems also remove beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium and may produce slightly “flat”-tasting water, most dietary minerals come from food rather than drinking water, so this is not usually a health concern for most people. Overall, RO water is very clean and safe to drink, and it can be a smart option where water quality is questionable, though it may not be necessary in areas with well-tested municipal water.
