Haha. Sounds like your husband is a great catch. ;)

Thanks for the input. I'm generally a big fan of erring on the side of caution. When I'm at home, I don't wash my hands as frequently as I do in public. So, if I touch something covered in gluteny lotion and use the same hand to hold an apple or touch my mouth, I could be in trouble. And I can't seem to break the bad habit of always having my hands in/on my face.

Anyway... I think I am just dragging my feet because I will have to clear out a lot of the otherwise awesome products in my bathroom now. Thanks for encouraging me to choose wisdom.

Their antibacterial lotion had wheat germ oil too. I have to read their labels carefully. People could use that on their hands and then eat!

For hands I use Vaseline intensive rescue repairing moisture --- fragrance free, hypoallergenic. Go to www.vaseline.com for ingredients list. There are no wheat, barley or rye ingredients in it. I love the way it works.

You can doctor up almost any good unscented lotion or oil using essential oils. Just an idea...

      Bananas are rich in fiber, potassium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, and zinc and B vitamins.  One of the first successful treatments for Celiac Disease used banana as the main carbohdrate energy source. quick, easily digestible energy, easier on sensitive stomachs and offer more potassium, which can help replenish electrolytes lost through sweat.”   I clean and separate the banana from the bunch and store in the refrigerator.  The outside peel may turn color, even black, but the banana inside does not get overripe so they can last a long time.

      I only intend to do the blood screen. I also fully intend to remove gluten from my diet whether the test is positive or negative.  I’d just like to know, even if it’s inconclusive, if Celiac might be the cause my life-long gastrointestinal distress. If the test is positive, I’ll assume that I probably have Celiac, like my sister. If it’s negative, I’ll assume that I may have a gluten intolerance/allergy — or not.  My quest will end there. My belly problems don’t render my life insufferable. My sister’s diagnosis (positive blood and biopsy) just made me curious whether I have Celiac, too. Either way, I’m done with gluten as soon as I give the blood sample on Wednesday 👍🏼

      The Calgary VSafety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation - full text - Something I have noticed, reports ol hypercalcification occur only when calcium supplements are used.

      Keep in mind that a celiac diagnosis normally involves two steps: 1. blood antibody testing and 2. if there are positive antibody test scores, an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining. You have only mentioned the first in your strategizing.

      There are about 8 grams of protein in an egg and also in a cup of milk. About 90 calories in an egg and around 100 to 120 calories in a cup of milk, depending on the fat content. To increase your calorie intake with food items that are also nutritionally dense, concentrate on seeds and nuts. They are high in fat content, so lots of calories, but also rich in vitamins and minerals. They are a moderately good source of protein as well. Black molasses is a good source of calories but not such a good source of vitamins and minerals so don't go overboard on it. It is somewhat better than table sugar from a nutritional standpoint, however. Spirilunia and moringa powder I am not familiar with but I doubt there is much calorie value there and it is refined so I doubt that they would be a great source of vitamins.
