Alice's Nutribullet!

Had I not caught that infomercial.....Nutribullet is all they say and much more, especially for a gluten-free cooking mom or dad! Not only have I been making the best "Nutri" drinks This thing does a whole host of other things. I haven't been on here much (Pinterest addict!) but I really have to share. It is NOT like their Magic Bullet...300 watts more power.

Flour: I have a multitudes of appliances and I have never gotten the results with them as i have with my Nutribullet. I can't say enough good stuff about this thing. It feels really good to grind your own flours, you can control every aspect. And yes, this is the finest grind I have ever been able to do! Flax is amazing.

"Nutriblast": This is a term they coined and it fits really good. Most products are hyped really well but this machine actually lives up to it's claims. 1/2 greens, 1/2 fruit and one "blast"(or 2 or 3!). I got hulled hemp seed at Costco, um...have you ever looked at the nutrition values on the side of a package of hemp seed? I am blown away. My dogs love it. It's pricy but not any more than a good piece of meat and it lasts far longer!

Soup: I coined "Soup in 5!" You throw stuff, whatever you have, into this thing, rough chop (10 seconds) toss in a pan and Soup in 5! Potatoes whirled thru here are amazing and cook so fast and thicken so well!

You can grind coffee and WASH it in between French Vanilla and French Roast. Can't do that with a coffee grinder. Yes, you wash/rinse in between because I swear, you won't be able to put it down! My Vita-mix took 10 minutes to clean well, this takes 10 seconds!

Nut Milk: WHERE have I been? If for only this reason you buy one of these things this is it! We have been doing w/o non-dairy for quite awhile. Well, those days are over! You cannot imagine how good your own Almond milk is in this thing. I tried making it in a blender, yuck is what my kids said. Wow is what they say now. Got the almonds at Costco, used one heaping cup, blanched em, soaked em for 12-18 hours(they sprout!)in the fridge, whirled em good in the blender, drained em thru a LARGE coffee filter in a screen colander, and let me tell you, I had to add 3 cups of water it was so think, so creamy, so good, NO SEPARATION, WHAT-SO-EVER!! Water and almonds, no binders, fillers, salt, sugar, nothing but my own two hands and my Nutribullet. Wait till you see the cream cheese left over! Made rice with it!! WOW! Cashews... oh, my! The cream cheese THEY make is beyond description! We finally have creamy back in our house! You will have a cup or so of this stuff and it's better than any cheese I have ever had. I aim to learn more about the left-over pulp! :)

If I ever felt like the Red Hen, it's now!

This thing is too good to be true and I aim to get the word out. Next week I am taking it to Water Aerobics so I can show them what it can do. Forget the "blender", uses too much stuff (things I was going to throw away FILL this blender) hard to clean(you drink out of the container you make it in, RINSE the blade and you are done!)and most everything goes in here! I never peel anything, not mango, nothing. I do remove seeds but not from grapes! I made a drink with raw beets, 1 zuc, 1 cucumber and some fruit, 1/4 cup flax, the kids never knew what was it it! It was so beautiful! It's ground so fine, it's like per-digested. I bet it FLY'S into your system?

Anyone trying to heal their gut should have one of these!

You can make dried fruit cookies in a flash! Whirl the dried fruit, nuts, seeds, press it in a pan, let it "set" and cut into bars....forget buying them!

Oh ya, Bed, Bath & Beyond, $80 with a 20% coupon.

      Many thanks for your reply Rogol72.  People have been very kind and made all sorts of suggestions. I am bearing them all in mind but at this early stage just desperately need to be itch free.  I have literally had this horrid rash from scalp to feet. My most recent outbreak was all across my face as well. At one stage it was so widespread I was having very bad thoughts. Dapsone has changed that.  I think my situation is worsened by Addison's Disease. I am totally steroid dependent. Its a constant trade-off between increasing steroids to cope with dermatitis herpetiformis vs increased risk of high steroids. I also have hypothyroidism. In fact dermatitis herpetiformis is my fifth autoimmune condition.  Hey ho, I'm muddling through. Its nice to hear that others with the condition have found various ways to get back on track.  I don't want to be on Dapsone a day longer than necessary but it's far better than the awful state I was in.  My dermatologist is keeping a close eye on my bloods. So far, so good.  Thank you again for your advice. Very much appreciated.  Sue

      Hey @suek54, I also have Dermatitis Herpetiformis. I used to be on Dapsone but have managed to wean myself off it after many attempts. It's quiet a toxic drug, as it affects the bone marrow and red blood cells. It also artificially reduces Hemoglobin A1C. Mine was at 21 at one stage, I think normal is around 37. With dermatitis herpetiformis, you need to be really strict. It wasn't until I focused on getting the trace minerals the body needs that I managed to get off it. I believe getting the thyroid numbers in the optimal range also helped with Iodine and Selenium. Iodine doesn't bother me for some reason, but flares others as knitty kitty said. I take Viridian Trace Mineral complex and it's made a huge difference, among other vitamins and minerals. Now I can tolerate gluten free oats which I could never eat before. Though I only have them very occasionally in the form of gluten free soda bread . One thing I miss is my Mums Irish soda bread. Hope this helps.

      Hi all Biopsy confirmed dermatitis herpetiformis. Strict gluten free diet going OK, I cook nearly everything from scratch anyway and am finding gluten free  adaptations for most recipes.  I seem to be tolerating 50mg Dapsone well, regular blood tests OK so far.  Next derma appt in 8 weeks. I have some continuing itching and rash outbreaks, though nowhere near as severe as they were, so I am hoping for an increased dose, as the effect only seems to last 6-7 hours.  I think I may be burning through it more quickly than some due to other medication. Also I cannot mount a response to inflammation due to Addison's Disease.  I hope others are finding their way though the minefield that is dermatitis herpetiformis. Hang on in there! Sue (in UK)

      @KeriRae, have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or with dermatitis herpetiformis?
    • KeriRae
      I've had this same rash on my back on and off for the last year or two.  I was taking LDN to help with other issues but quit awhile back. I'm wondering if LDN would help with this rash.
