ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)
ShayFL replied to AliB's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
How awful Ali!!! Food poisoning maybe? I hope you are all better now. -
Ideally you would "heal" your body instead of just giving it a drug. But believe me, I understand the temptation to just drink. ALL of the studies suggest women shouldnt drink more than 1 little glass of alcohol a day. So if you are going to imbibe, I would keep it to 1 (one) 4 oz glass in the evening and not 2. Find a good Holistic doctor who can help...

Glad it is feeling better. I dont have any mercury left in my mouth. I found a biological dentist nearby who did everything right (ventilation, dam, etc.). I did them 2 at a time till they were all done....5 visits. It is worth it IMO. I have no regrets there. My body temperature went up 2 degrees when there were all out!! They were suppressing my...

ARCHIVED About "natural Flavors"
ShayFL replied to mr. moore's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You cannot make a blanket statement like "all" because the FDA doesnt monitor what goes into "natural flavor". Honestly ANYTHING can be in it. But in general, yes, it has some form of MSG. Like "yeast extract", "autolyzed yeast", "flavorings", etc. They generally do. MSG is a flavor enhancer. Any bland yucky food can be made to taste good with it. ... -
ARCHIVED About "natural Flavors"
ShayFL replied to mr. moore's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I know immediately when I've had MSG.....My brain gets a "buzzy" feeling and the world seems a bit surreal for about 10 minutes. That doesnt last long. If I got a big enoiugh dose a headache follows within a few hours. "Natural Flavor" is a big source of hidden "MSG". Like I pick up a bottle of pear "essence" water with 3 ingredients: water, essence... -
I just ate there myself last week with a friend. It was my first time. I got the lettuce wraps. They were very good and very careful. The server brought me my own condiment dish (though I didnt use it) and reiterated it was gluten-free when he brought my food. I didnt get sick.

I didnt eat beef for 7 years. Like you meat killed my stomach and gave me D. Then a Chinese doctor told me I needed to eat red meat after looking at my tongue. I went straight away to the store and bought a steak, ate it that night and felt GREAT! I've been eating it ever since.

ARCHIVED celiac disease Against Nuts And Vitamin D ?
ShayFL replied to Candy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Roasted nuts are "rancid". The oils in nuts go "rancid" very quickly even without heat. But roasting accelerates that process. Now that you dont have gluten mucking up your system, your body lets you know that they are toxic. -
ARCHIVED New To Forum - B12 Deficiency And Gluten Intolerance?
ShayFL replied to bobbyj's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It is the flattened mucosa that give it a way. There ARE other things that can cause damage to your villi. But B12 deficiency is common in gluten intolerance/Celiac. If you cannot get a definitive Dx there in Asia, you have nothing to lose by going 100% gluten-free to see if your symptoms improve and it IS a healthy diet. -
ARCHIVED celiac disease Against Nuts And Vitamin D ?
ShayFL replied to Candy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Nuts are VERY high in fat and Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin. Active Celiac can hinder the absorption of fats and certain vitamins. It could have easily made you feel sick to eat them. You know if you do have true Celiac, not worrying about little bits of gluten/wheat here and there could really be harming you. -
It's official!! I have two areas where the gums have receded. Like when there is no tarter or gunk in them, there are no gums there. Lower front teeth. I had two little triangles of no gums and one of the areas is filling in!!! Yeah!!! I am so hopeful and when they both fill in (I am being positive) I will make an appt. with my dentist just to show...

ARCHIVED I Really Wanted To Make A Mini Bio To See If Someone Would Relate
ShayFL replied to mr. moore's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Mental illness and depression runs in my family. After my daughter was born my thyroid went haywire. I had the worst time. For awhile I couldnt sleep (hyperthyroid) and I sat around sweating and mind racing none stop. I believed the devil was on my back and he was wispering in my ear all of the time that I was worthless and that I should just kill myself... -
Yes Mommy it is good. Ayurvedia has been around for thousands of years. They didnt use "refined" oil back then. I'm over a week now and my teeth are definitely whiter. And the gums are healing.
