ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
tom replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Well, I've been pretty familiar w/ celiac and candida for a good long time. I think it must've been Lyme/mercury posts. Just in case, I learn a little every day. -
ARCHIVED Rice Dream
tom replied to majicbunnies's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yup. I was in a store 1-2wks ago holding 2 otherwise identical unrefrig boxes. I won't ever buy theirs. -
Doesn't appear the relatives "grew out of it", if hers is gluten-related. W/ progress on the diet, it sure seems a reasonable working hypothesis. I have no knowledge of the cheek symptom, but the rest could easily be a gluten-intolerance or celiac. The relapse in some symptoms may be only temporary - caused by cross-contamination or sneaky hidden gluten...

ARCHIVED Put Me Out Of My Misery...

That's a lot of soy. And potentially ALSO fits a candida theory. Somehow it's able to create cravings for exactly the things that are worst for you. And soy sauce is in the 'fermented=no-no' category. I'm in a no-soy test right now and found I like WestSoy's Ricemilk and, of all the crazy things, LivingHarvest's Hempmilk!! And I think Pacific Natural... -

Isn't "poor sot" in use for this also? As for the rest, save the lark section, aren't they all examples of euphemistically replacing common vulgarities used in exactly those contexts? <omg I'm sodding professor spice here now> (please don't make that stick. It's only there for a laugh. Saxy is much more fun) -

Bugger!! double post. So I'll take this opportunity to call all the sodding definitions grammatically, if not gomorrah-cly, correct. -

Hehe that cracks me up far more than anyone here would expect. For the vast majority of my life I didn't do much usin'uh them $2 words. A friend, who was maybe the smartest person I've ever met (Yale Physics), and I would occasionally venture beyond bar vernacular - ok he did often, me occ. - and he had some comment that made me reply "hey w/ my usual... -

It's fermented. Fermented things are as bad as straight sugar candida-wise as far as I'm concerned. Not sure if the process involved in each's badness is the same, I just found out very quickly that both made for more trouble and faster than anything else when I was at my "hey it's candida" point. So no vinegar of any type. No alcohol. Nothing w/ vanilla... -

Re: carla-ing I did call it community-defined and I don't know if my whoop-dee-doo 2week tenure even qualifies me to vote! (Kinda like the House Representative from D.C. - except that position has existed probably for generations) This newly-whirrin' soy-free noggin just enjoys a good debate. Right now the best part may be that I'm starting to... -

Why is it I can't help but be curious about 'before & after' pix of this? Oh like I'd be able to be stuck w/ an image of u in pain & frustratingly staring at a blank uncooperative big-screen (in the coolest room of the house) when I could change it in a snap! <snap!> Yay it works! -
ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
tom replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Ok, it's certainly a community-defined term, and there's a rough consensus so far (besides me of course ). I still say the origination of "carla'ing" was such an example of EXTREME restraint, that applying it to cases of restraint which, tho admirable, just aren't on par w/ not just stopping at one bite per sitting or per day. ONE BITE PER WEEK is ridiculous... -

The HELL u say!! I was just tossing in a line from the great song I just heard is all. I'd hoped that putting that much space betw 'content' and "lyric" could be a fast'n'dirty substitute for a change in signature. I guess I gotta take a brit's word for it on 'sod'. But I've run into so many awful errors on wiki that I wish you'd posted just about... -

Surprised not a single post re: my thoughts on refining a distinct, narrow definition to 'carla-ing'. <am I gonna be in the doghouse again or not?> There just seems to be a wide chasm between 'not racheling' & qtr-donut-per-week 'carla-ing'. -

Ain't that the truth. It took me quite awhile to learn to resist - it was more the physical "do" for me. But also some eating for a test. Finally realized that the more often I do tests, the more often they fail. And maybe there's more to the cumulative effect of more consecutive 'better' days than meets the eye. I think there's just something hard... -

Noooooo! Seeing the existence of an early and so unexpected dingy post was pavlovian to my humerus, but now MY back hurts more than it did 30sec ago. Argh that sucks, I know all too well.

Aren't efforts to 'seem smarter' in essence deceptive dishonoUrable practices and inevitably futile? Let's set the bar a little higheur and focus our efforts on actually *becoming* smarter.
