I generally cut up baked or grilled chicken breasts, add onions, bell peppers, black olive slices, passover mayo, celery, and mix (other things you could add would be nuts, grapes, diced tomatoes, etc. anything your can imagine).

I too love chicken salad with grapes!!! I just add helman's or miracle whip salad dressing to the chicken until moist then toss in lost of grapes cut in half. If she likes walnuts toss those in too. It is very yummy!!!

My mom's secret is to put a dash or two of lemon juice in---makes it yummy!

Chicken Salad

1 1/2 cups chicken, chopped or shredded

1/3 cup grapes, cut into wedges

1/4 cup celery, chopped

1-2 tablespoons onions, finely chopped (more or less is your preference)

1/4 cup coarsly chopped walnuts, can be raw or toasted

dash of black pepper

mayo (enough to make it creamy)

chop all the fruits and vegetables.

mix all ingredients into a bowl and stir well.

serve as a sandwich filling, or on a bed of choped lettuce.

*All measurements are approximate and you can add more or less of anything to your liking. There are no real set measurements, I just estimated to give you an idea of about how much I use. I basically just chop everything up and toss it all together.

**I have also added chopped apples occasionally, as well as substituted dried cranberries when I didn't have fresh grapes. You can use almost any type of nut if you can't eat walnuts (or don't like them).

A quick chicken sandwich filling

1 Cooked chicken without the skin with all bones removed and pulled into little parts. Mix teaspoon turmeric, mayonnaise and apricot chutney together. Mix the sauce with the chicken. Use grilled red bell peppers/capsicum or ungrilled raw pepper, cut into 1cm strips. Take 2 slices of bread place a lettuce leaf or two on each side put some grilled red capsicum/ red bell peppers on the bread and some of the chicken mix enjoy the sandwich.

Or

Chicken salad

Make a salad use the chicken mix ad some lettuce leaves, strips of freshly cut red bell peppers/capsicum and add half a cut melon cut into blocks. Add some slivered almonds optional. Add some pealed lychees Open Original Shared Link

This is a richer version that is great for an appetizer - just mix chicken, chopped red apples, chopped celery and cream cheese. I put this atop homemade crackers - I roll out Pamela's Biscuit Mix pretty thin and bake on 425 until they're brown, turning once. Mmmmmm...

For crackers and sandwiches, we do: chicken, chopped celery, green onions, red peppers, mayo and a tiny squirt of yellow mustard, garlic powder, salt and pepper.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
