  1. Welcome to the forum! Another thing to watch out for is nuts coated in starch. Many different types of nuts are coated in wheat starch or other starches that can cause us trouble. Always check the labels even if it appears to be plain nuts. The walnuts in mcdonalds salads are a perfect example of what not to eat. At other times nuts are processed...
  2. interesting that amazon is banned from the forum, anyway just search spiralizer and you'll find it
  3. I enojy the spaghetti squash too but more so zucchini made into noodles with a spiralizer machine i got form internet. Little white plastic thing where you put in the squash, turn the handle and it turns it into long noodles. http://www.(Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned)/World-Cuisine-A4982799-Tri-Blade-Vegetable/dp/B0007Y...
  4. sometimes on imported miso the english label will cover the japanese label which often gives much more detailed info. You could try to find someone to read it for you or post a picture and either Missys mom, or I or someone else should be able to tell what the starter was
  5. Miss's Mom summed it up. With miso you have to know how it was made. Im working in JApan right now and last night asked to see the package of miso -- something not done here but once i explained why the staf and chef at a small restaurant became interested in knowing more. It was kome koji or rice starter and made with daizo ( soy beans) instead of barley...
  6. i like using sorghum and buckwheat or just buckwheat flour. It has a stronger taste which I like
  7. With antibiotics running rampant as a medical solution while causing massive destruction to beneficial gut flora, it is imperative to make every attempt to restore that

  9. YOU have to make sure its juwari soba which is 100% buckwheat-- there are special juwari soba restaurants -- since you cant have the usually dipping sauce you can ask for the soba yu which is the water the noodles are boiled in. Add some ginger and onions and its pretty good. You could also bring some braggs aminos or gluten-free soy sauce to add to it
  10. for sure try thew yuba (tofo) ryori in Kyoto -- a good place or at a ryokan like Matsubatei near kiyomizudera will makeyou think your in the 1700s!
  11. Hi Missy's mom hope your doing well. Been awhile! Im headed back to Tokyo on the 29th. Was thinking of coming home with a gopan but i dont have that much bread anyway and tend to make it from scratch or make dosa or flat breads. A few times a year my wife will make me gluten-free french bread. What I was in japan a few months ago I had a lot of yuba...
  12. Hi, I actually like the mango pickles without the li hing best. No need to add anything. just leave out th eli hing and do the rest here are some more ideas from riends I work with By Chef Sandy Barr Merrimans Ingredients: Yield 4 cups 2 1/2 ripe Hawaiian mangos 2 1/2 ripe Hawaiian papaya 1/4 cup sugar 2 ounces coconut...
  13. Li hing is so common here in Hawaii and often overused. It is an aquired taste for some. Although usually made from dry plum, its sometimes artificial now. You can make great mango pickles without it.
  14. great pickled mango recipe Open Original Shared Link
  15. Wheat Belly book's almost a 3 minute video
  16. The national Tropical Botanical Garden area is beautiful too. They filmed part of Jurassic Park there.

    ARCHIVED Wheat In Japan

    Thanks for posting, very interesting story. After 30 yeas in and out of japan, I've found all sorts of no wheat crackers and even some breads in health food shops but the focus on meriken-ko is still strong. Why they add wheat to 7-11 & Family Mart onigiri is beyond me. I went to a seminar in 2005 where there were something like 12 cases of celiac. In...
  18. In Hawaii it really depends on where you stay. Here on the big island many of the resorts have dedicated areas for gluten-free foods. 12% of the guests require some dietary speciality like gluten-free, raw or vegan. there are a lot of health foods stores here in kona, maui and oahu. I got married in in vegas so kind of the opposite from you. Kona...
  19. http://www.(Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned)/The-Pleasure-Trap-Mastering-Undermines/dp/1570671508 this is a book by the docs that helped me get straightened out -- based on real science I found it very helpful. Still even after 2 years of 100% vegan, im the only fat vegan I know of -- too much avocado I guess! Stil...
  20. Just heard a news report that now 1 in 88 children arediagnosed with some form of autism now. I've read that 1 in 88 people haveceliac now (1 in 133 was years ago) I bet there is a correlation and that itcomes from the diet we have. Notjust pink slime in school lunches but all the additives and chemicals in damnnear everything we consume. Having been diagnosed...
  21. It takes some time I think. I was diagnosed in my late 50s and had no energy at all but once going completely gluten free, I started to get back my energy and more importantly my will. You have to make sure he is 100% gluten free and lean where the gluten is hidden. No beer or soy sauce for example unless its special gluten free types. He might be feeling...
  22. depends on the type of juice, green juice or fruit. Green juice from kale, celery etc is one thing. not a banana smoothy although sometimes when one is skinny its not a problem. in any case its good to check with some alternative medical experts like True North Health center people or even ask at a local health food store. There are many books on the subject...
  23. I do a green juice fast for a week every 6 months or so, its great for getting the body in balance. I'm 60 and not skinny and besides celiac have had a lot of heart and kidney trouble. When I went vegan 2 years ago and started doing this, Ive had NO trouble at all and feel 20 years younger. I wish my sons would do it! -- Open Original Shared Link is...
  24. Besides the various types of rices, (a dozen different types of wild and blends) there are a few types of quinoa, sorghum, amaranth, millet, tef and other gluten free grains to experiment with both as a side dish, cereal or as a flour. I've devloped a taste for white sorghum that I either get online or in japan. great taste but very high in carbs.
  25. I've been gluten-free for 7 years and Vegan for 2 of those years There is a book called the pleasure trap by Dr's Alan Goldhammer and Doug Lisle both of whom helped me turn things around after some heart trouble on top of the celiac. So, thanks to them I went Vegan and now feel 20 years younger, don't miss dairy or meat at all. So many create creative alternatives...
