    DE works on the exterior of furry/feathery animals as way to kill external insect pests, like fleas, because it cuts into their exo skeletons and they dehydrate. Animals lick themselves when self- grooming, so it obviously doesn't harm them internally, but I don't think this is going to help otherwise. You have to be careful when applying it, don't get...

    Starbucks serves Tazo tea in their tea bags selections. Some of the Tazo Tea flavors did have gluten per the Tazo FAQ on the Tazo website. The Tazo website has been massively overhauled since the last time I checked it. I am seeing many herbal tea blends listed with the generic "natural flavorings" ingredient. In the USA, a natural flavoring as of 2...

    I responded within a few days of a gradual lessening of the dizziness, but I had complications with my c spine being messed up. Took longer for the vision problems to partially resolve, as my eyes will still cross when I get glutened. But I slowly regained my night vision, so I can see to drive at night (being able to see things at night continues to fascinate...

    Gelato! Husband is making chile for dinner, because we finally ran out of the Indian curries we made last thurs/friday. Our 14 year old microwave is not wanting to start anymore, so we are having to boil water on the stove for coffee.... I managed to set off the smoke alarm doing this. I would like to get a new mic just like the old one, and of...

    This is why we moved to another state finally, so we could just visit cold, and then come home an hour and a half later to where it may frost but seldom snows. It wasn't just the cold, it was the cold, the freezing rain ice storms in November-December that coated everything with a half inch of ice so you had to open every latch and gate with a propane...

    A GIANT GLUTEN DEFLECTO SHIELD ? I WANT ONE OF THOSE. I HAVE NO FREAKING IDEA WHAT I AM HAVING FOR DINNER. WE NEED TO GO TO THE GROCERY AND IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT AND 7 O'CLOCK ALREADY. BUT WE HAD TACO SALADS FOR LUNCH WITH A SIDE OF BLACK BEANS.

    As time passes, celiacs on a gluten free diet tend to react more strongly to cross contamination or glutenings.

    Something funny..... my topical allergies to hay are flaring up a bit... the other day I carefully wiped out all the dog crates, then pro-actively powdered each dog with diatomaceous earth, because I don't want to hit them with chemicals during the time of year that it's cold enough the fleas die if they go outside. We then took all the sheets off the bed...

    WTF somebody lives in Florida and they come home with, first, salmon,and secondly, glutenoid salmon ? That takes some special kind of talent. Then they put this stuff on the grill as if heat can make the problemo go adios. Is 2013 the Year of Magical Thinking ? You'd better tell him not to show up next with imitation crab

    You wouldn't mind if I dropped one in ten pizzas on the floor in the restaurant kitchen, then. After all, every meal out is a crapshoot. If Domino's and NFCA think it's okay to randomly expose a few celiacs to low levels of gluten, then the rest of the pizza industry shouldn't feel it necessary to be careful about exposing the rest of the pizza eaters to...

    You can try fresh tuna or fresh frozen plain tuna, and cook it yourself, to test if it is a canned tuna processing problem.

    Yup. There are as many ways to work around eggs as you can imagine. Just add some other sort of fruit, seed, or vegetable matter with the ability to firm up to add structure when it's cooked, plus a little fat and maybe a little bit of lift from a leavening ingredient such as baking soda and an acid such as vinegar, and it works. I have played with soaked...

    If you are celiac, then you have to stick to the gluten free diet. That is your first priority, because not doing so will otherwise give you food cravings. Gluten is addictive. If you fall off the wagon or cheat, you start the cycle all over again of having an auto immune reaction, damage, and malnutrition/poor absorbing of nutrients. The second priority...

    Get the Dr. Christiane Northrup books http://www.drnorthrup.com/bookstore/index.php on this topic, and start reading them. Perimenopause can last a very long time, and there are a lot of different options on what you can do to deal with it. I won't tell you how long mine went before I finally had to have one ovary that was causing most of the problems...

    NFCA is tweeting this as of 7 hours ago (that would be around 11 am Pacific Daylight time Tues May 22nd) in response when somebody sees what is currently on the Domino's website and inquires about this supposed NFCA "Gluten Free Ingredients" rating" I bolded or colored the actual conversations that I expanded and copied here, so they are reading top down...
