    I recall years ago I found hams that had gluten. (back when I ate pork). I had already purchased the product because I didn't expect there to be gluten in the ham. I believe it was a standard brand of ham such as hillshire farm. Maybe not, but do be cautious with every product that is not specifically known to be gluten free... such as Boar's Head products...

    Oh, please! Do not worry about names these days. I have met a Kelby, a Montana, a Dakota, a Tanner, a Blaze, a Blaise, a Blade, a Nyree, a Ronnae, a Tilly... Choose a name you enjoy and don't think twice about it. That Gwennyth Paltrow named her baby Apple! That Julia Roberts named her children Phinneus and something else quite exotic. Angelina Jolie...

    Rachel, I agree with you. I remember being convinced that MSG was simply a flavor enhancer and only annoying people had stomach issues with it. The idea that I would be so self centered as to request "No MSG" in my Chinese food was laughable. The mothers who requested peanut free tables annoyed me back in the day. The people who were sensitive to chemical...

    You will need to address each food item individually. No one can give you an answer that will cover all meats in the deli dept. Not even a statement such as "cheddar cheese is gluten free" is accurate 100% of the time. Each brand of Cheddar Cheese needs to be looked at. Each deli counter needs to have a worker who hears you when you request the slicer...

    Yes. You need to be gluten free, so all gluten counts. (i had to spell this three times to get it right so check the site out!) Kinnikinnick.com has glutenfree and casein free products. All great.

    I recently purchased a bag of sweet rice. I wasn't sure how to prepare it. I made it as I would regular rice. I added a spoon of honey and a banana. It was very good, of course. It's a nice substitute for hot oatmeal or hot buckwheat cereal. I made it for my children with cinnamon and brown sugar, and they liked it, though my growing son looked at me...

    Fiddle, Don't buy anything with any fake sweetener. They're all neurotoxins. Here is a complete list of the names for MSG. Even things like "Yeast Extract" are the newest approved words by the FDA to conceal MSG. It's so scary. truthinlabeling.com

    Open Original Shared Link Andrea, basil grows exceptionally well in a planter. Black seeded simpson is a great lettuce to begin with as it matures quickly as you await the maturity of your other lettuce. Of course, a strawberry plant in one of those pots with many holes is fun for the kids. Other easy to grow plants are pumpkins, cucumbers and tomatoes...

    Oh, I must be doing this right because over the summer, my children and I were tested for vitamins etc to see if our absorption was adequate. We were fine in everything so I feel confident telling you how we get our calcium. We eat a large dark green salad everyday. I use a variety of lettuces in every salad. I use many herbs such as thyme, dill, basil...

    Rachel, thank you for understanding. Jestgar, you are simply picking. You are not a superior point maker because you argue. There was no need to pretend you didn't get it. As for the distinction between whether or not people are choosing to be misled or the fda is misleadind them, you are again being argumentative for sport. Oprah was sued...

    It is obvious what I am talking about. The lies of the fda. You do not need to get your vitamin D (it is a steroid, anyway) from dairy products. Likewise, you do not need to look to dairy for calcium. You will absorb less calcium when you look to a high protein source for your calcium. If people knew that dairy was a poor source of calcium and D, they...

    There are alternatives to probiotics. Coconut water/milk from a fresh young coconut is very good for the gut. I take coconut milk from a fresh young coconut at least every other day. I eat fresh herbs daily. Many herbs are antibacterial and can help reduce inflamation in your gut. If you remove sugar from your diet, you will find the need for a probiotic...

    I am fortunate to live in year round sunshine. I tell my children to sit outside in a chair when they are sick or beginning to get ill. I know it shortens the length of their illness whether it is a cold or stomach virus, I send them outside with a book or magazine and ask them to relax in the sunshine for awhile. It always brightens their moods when they...

    Open Original Shared Link A few years ago, a woman I knew told me this. I think it's interesting.

    Kinkinnick .com has a full line of Gluten-free Casein-free breads. All are very good. We are dairy free. I use coconut oil in place of butter. coconut oil is good in all baked goods with chocolate. Coconut milk *only from a young coconut* is great in baked good. And on chicken and fish. Hummus is a wonderful spread when cream cheese is no longer...

    You can get good D from sunlight.

    Why do you need so much protein? Just curious.

    One of my favorite subjects is dairy. We are a dairy free family. Here is what we use in place of dairy. Rice milk, almond milk, coconut oil *for butter and oil* and that's it. I get the chocolate flavored almond milk for my kids. Rice milk is individual. Try out several brands to see if your child likes one. We just don't really use them anymore....

    Stuffed peppers. Brown rice, turkey, garlic, salt pepper, tomato sauce or crushed fresh tomatoes if you want the best flavor, diced onion and chopped basil. Put in large peppers. I like to get the assortment of colors for stuffed peppers. It makes dinner look so festive.

    I am. This is the other benefit I'm finally enjoying after some months of the Chlorella. It wasn't so bad for me after just a month. The first few days were only the really bad days I had. I'm having all my old fillings redone in April, as well. The research on the heavy metals and chlorella is amazing. My kids are taking it daily as a precaution against...

    This is why I get the "pulverized" chlorella. Makes more available for absorption.

    Is this the ebook? I have it as well. It is good. Getting rid of msg is difficult because you forget words like yeast. On line, I found Glutino pretzels and the on line information says in the ingredient: Yeast... The package says: Yeast extract. I have called the company but gotten no response. I was unclear if yeast was different from Yeast extract...

    I use coconut oil daily. I pay $15 for a jar of the finer quality coconut oil. I find that it is cost comparable to butter. Our four sticks of organic butter is $5.oo as I noticed in the supermarket the other day. The cost isn't equal because the coconut oil lasts much longer. You use less. The coconut oil takes much longer to use. Consider this. You...

    We travel quite a bit. I puchased a wonderful cooler that keeps ice for a week! I pack my frozen breads in it for our trips. I pack gluten free donuts for my children. It is junk food, but road trips require some donuts. I have a single burner that I bring everywhere. I plug it in boil my noodles in a real pot, make buckwheat hot cereal for breakfast...

    This is a fun subject for me because I have a son who is going through a tremendous growth spurt. He has grown four inches in four months. He is a terrible nightmare with the hormones and all, but worse is the eating. My poor daughter lamented recently that she was hungry. When I told her to go find something to eat she said there was nothing left because...
