I don't measure I just plunk stuff in. :)

Plain yogourt, sometimes vanilla yogourt

Frozen Strawberries

Bananas

Whatever fruits I have on hand, blueberries etc.

lol measuring :-p

Frozen banana, coconut yogurt (vanilla or strawberry), frozen or fresh strawberries, orange juice. That's a standard, I deviate from it a lot though. I used to put ice in but I had to get rid of my old icecube trays and haven't gotten around to getting new ones.

Frozen fruit, especially frozen banana, makes the best smoothies IMO.

If I don't have yogurt I put in some vanilla almond milk and add more banana to make it thicker.

Frozen fruit of all sorts - my favourite combination is raspberries, bananas and nectarines. Lately I have been on a black cherry and mango kick. I squeeze in some fresh lime, add milk or coconut milk, my homemade vanilla extract and raw agave syrup. Mine are so thick I have to spoon like soft ice cream. The lime juice and vanilla make all the difference! :)

I always add some veggies with the frozen/fresh fruit. Usually spinach and carrots, sometimes celery and cucumber. And protein powder sometimes and probiotics. Love adding coconut milk or yogurt too. Vanilla is a good idea. I bet almond extract would be good too. I'll have to try that.

I make smoothies from greek yogurt, frozen berries, bananas, honey, orange juice, and flaxseed. Yum! Even my teenage brother (at the VERY picky stage) will eat them. :)

Frozen mangoes from Trade Joe's (the best brand)

About 1 inch of fresh ginger (good for stomach aches) chopped

1 banana

Honey

Warm water

Blend extra long to make sure the ginger gets chopped up well.

I added some cocoa powder an sugar to my banana smoothie, now this is worth waking up for. It is sooooooooooo good !!!! It"s just like gluten an dairy free chocolate ice cream.

It"s been 11 years since i had any "homemade" vanilla extract so i better not go that route !

I wanted to revive this topic as I'm looking for a higher in protein smoothie recipe. I may come up with one of my own but since my GI is having a hard time breaking stuff down.. figured I'd help it out for one meal of the day.. any of your favorite recipes you can share would be fantastic! I can always add protein powder to make it higher in protein..

 

thanks!

      TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml: further tests?

      By lookingforanswersone · Posted

      Hi, a query about testing. Background: I have existing diagnosis of pernicious anaemia (b12 deficiency) autoimmune condition. Diagnosed 5 years ago.  Symptoms for 10 years. Initially got better with b12 shots (for like a month or so) but still kicking around. So query Celiac and other clustered autoimmune conditions to PA. If celaic it would maybe be more silent as don't get vomiting, diarrhea or weight loss. Symptoms = chronic fatigue. Muscular&skeletal pain. Hot hands and feet (worse an night), nausea after eating, tiredness after consuming food like bread and pasta.  Celiac screen came back (private blood test): TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml.  My main question is, is it worth getting total iga for further testing ? I have been advised that 'low' would only count as 0 U/ml for TTG IgA not .3.  Oh and did the genetic testing and have the gene thing. Was also critically low for folate levels in recent tests  All other tests showed no likelihood of other autoimmune conditions like thyroid (luckily). Anyhow, any thoughts welcome but be kind, just trying to get well l.

      Gluten free Areds 2 Vitamins

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It looks like they are naturally gluten-free, but not labeled gluten-free. It's unlikely that they contain any gluten, but not impossible. This is the one I looked at: https://www.preservision.com/areds-2-formula-minigels/

      Welcome to the gluten-free journey—it sounds like you’ve been through a lot, but it’s great to hear you’re feeling better since cutting out gluten! The struggle to get clear answers can be so frustrating, especially when tests come back negative but your body is clearly reacting. It’s smart to hold off on retesting for celiac until you’ve reintroduced gluten (if you choose to), but in the meantime, listening to how your body responds is key. The overlap with perimenopause and gut issues is no joke—hormones really do throw everything into chaos! It’s awesome that you’re working with a kinesiologist and focusing on whole foods; that’s helped so many of us here too. And yes, eating out is a minefield. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      @Izelle, you are welcome! It is important to know that beginning the gluten-free diet or even a reduced gluten diet previous to celiac testing will invalidate the testing. One should seek out testing before experimenting with eliminating gluten. Also, remember that celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune disease. When a celiac consumes gluten it triggers an autoimmune response that damages the lining of the small bowel. That can be confusing to a lot of people because it is an autoimmune response that involves food. So, allergy testing is of no use in diagnosing celiac disease. Of course, people can also have allergies to wheat, barley or rye (the three gluten-containing grains) but that is an entirely different immune system response.

      Gluten Intolerance And Low White Blood Cell Counts?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello Suze and welcome to the forum. Can you tell us which country you are posting from?  The reason I ask is that in some countries, it is quite a good idea to be tested for coeliac disease because if it turns out you are a coeliac, you will be given additional support by the government.  For example if you live in the UK, the NHS offers support from a nutritionist, DEXA bone scans to check for osteoporosis/osteopenia to which coeliacs are sometimes prone, additional vaccinations against certain illnesses, annual reviews with a gastroenterologist to check for dietary compliance and possible health complications, and, in some regions, a prescription to help with the purchase of gluten free bread and other staples, which can be pricey. Another example is Italy.  According to the Celiac Disease Foundation, in Italy, coeliacs are given up to 140 Euros a month to buy specifically gluten free food.  (Source: https://celiac.org/gluten-free-living/global-associations-and-policies/policies-around-the-world/#:~:text=Diagnosed celiacs receive vouchers to,to deal with celiac disease.) But with regards to your white blood cells, my levels were similarly low from memory a couple of years ago during a period of quite high stress.  It was picked up in a pre-op blood test.  But nobody blinked an eyelid at the results.  A few months later at my coeliac review with my gastroenterologist the levels had normalised.  As you are concerned, do raise it with your doctor, but it could well just be a blip as it was in my case.
