    ARCHIVED Fruit/berries

    kenlove replied to Lajet's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Hi, A lot of the seeds in tropical fruit contain unusual chemicals as does the latex. Some latex like ofrm chico sapodilla fruit was where teh first chewing gum came from. The latex from fresh figs hower can cause a lot of skin irritations. I work with a lot of figs and have to be very careful not to get the latex on my arms which seems to cause blisters...

    ARCHIVED Fruit/berries

    kenlove replied to Lajet's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Generally the berries contain tiny seeds but with some types of tropical fruit or tropical berries, the seeds can contain other compounds that are considered to be a hazzard and have some toxins. Cherimoya and those in the aannona family of fruits have seeds that should not be ingested as does loquat and some of teh sapotes. None of them have gluten though...

    Ialways make avocado soup which is just 3 avocados in a food processor with almond or soy milk and a bunch of fresh dill. Really refreshing. Dont know if your friend eats cheese but we often combine fresh figs, feta cheese and spinach in a salad with light dressing I make from citrus, olive oil and flavored vinegar. My 3 year old granddaughter prefers...

    Hi Matteo, Hawaii is very nice but I am afraid there is no market here for your tanning beds. We have sun and perfect weather almost everyday in my part of Hawaii in Kona. I have been here full time for 15 years and part time for 15 years before that. Originally I am from Chicago but traveled around the world as a news photographer. Now I am a researcher...

    Hi Matteo, Thanks so much for the information. My wife wants to do two things while there, Drink asti spumonti in Asto and eat every ice cream type she can find! I also love ice creams of all types. What do you do in texas? You should visit here in Hawaii before you return! I have to do some research on fig growing when i'm in Italy next year. THanks...

    Hi, I grow coffee in Hawaii and enjoy flavoring it naturally at times. Try grinding beans ( whole beans is are always best) along with a cinnamon stick, or dry orange peel, or nuts warmed in the oven. Even with chocoloate that you know is safe. Ken

    I usually break out within 10 minutes. Small blisters and rash on my hands that move up the arms. Within a half hour I get cramps and become lethargic. In my case it's always been accidental over the past 1.5 years. I try to track down the problem so as not to repeat it. The last csae a week ago from which i'm still recovering was from a 1/4 cup of milk...

    Hi, The bonefish places in Chicago have gluten-free menus as they are owned bythe Outback chain. I live in Hawaii and used to very fresh fish but always go there when I visit family. THe place is great and they seem to be very careful about any cross contamination. Always have great meals there. Happy anniversary! My 30th is on the 26th Ken

They also have some cook books which are pretty neet. I write some things for them about tropical fruit so the publisher sent me a copy and I've put on 5 pounds since I got...

    Hi, i've gone about 90% raw (since being diagnosed last year) thanks to a friend who publishes living nutrition magazine. I research and write about tropical fruit which is what I usually eat but being in Hawaii it's hard to not have a plate of rice stuck in front of me at different events. The other thing I found is that I cant eat after 4 in the afternoon...

Open Original Shared Link is the story According to the story the use of the term is by choice and not mandatory. I've not searched the FDA site yet but the story says anyone can make comments regarding the new gluten-free guidelines which, they...

    Hi, Although I;'ve been to japan hundreds of times in the past 25 years next week I'll head there for a month, the first time being gluten free after being diagnosed a year ago. Twenty years ago I was in a chefs school in Tokyo and familiar with the foods and how many dishes are prepared. What worries me the most is eating out, especially at the resaurants...

    ARCHIVED Maui

    kenlove replied to jesscarmel's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease

    Hi, I live in Kona on the Big Island but have to go to Maui sometimes for business. There are a number of good high end restaurants like Merrimans which will make sure things are gluten free. They do have a great fruit plate which changes daily depending on whts in season. Anywhere in Hawaii you have to be careful of soy sauce, they tend to dump it...
