The only time I have stepped foot into a fast food joint in the las 20 years was to use their bathroom. But I know a lot of folks do eat fast food. And if you have a corn issue....it isnt a good idea.

ShayFL replied to kochac's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think it is great! But take a dish of your own (with enough to share) just in case. Trust me on this one. -

ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)
ShayFL replied to AliB's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I have trouble with pasteurized milk. The raw goat milk yogurt seems to suit me just fine so far. Yeah, I believed Ann Wigmore when she said we didnt need meat. I learned otherwise. I really need some each day. But I have never liked eating tons of it. I could never do Atkins to save my life. If I go too long without fresh raw fruits and veggies... -
We've all made mistakes. Dont be too hard on yourself. You learned a valuable lesson. Hope you feel better soon.

Only my family knows this one. So I almost cant believe I am sharing it. Years ago I had a roommate. It was her house and I rented a room with access to the rest of the house. She and I were two peas in a pod. Both clean freaks. The house was kept spotless. One night at around 10 pm, I was in my room and felt a lot of gas coming. But for...

Dont think "nanoparticles" can be dangerous? We human beings are "nanoparticles" compared to the size of the earth and look how we are mucking up our planet. -
ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)
ShayFL replied to AliB's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I was a 100% raw foodist for 6 months. I did it PERFECTLY. I went to the Hippocrates Institute and everything. I had sprouts in every window. I juiced. I made "rejuvalac". I dehydrated (under 130 degrees of course). I will tell you that it was C.R.A.Z.Y. to live like that. I did nothing but think about, buy, sprout, clean, juice, mince, puree, assemble... -

ShayFL replied to AliB's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I have it. It has some useful bits, but overall, I wouldnt buy it again. I tried fermenting some gluten-free grains using the instructions in the book and it made my blood sugar really skyrocket. Maybe I will dig it out again and see if anything looks appealing this go around. -

Hubby and I always walk every morning before work. Pre-gluten-free, there were some mad sprints for home from time to time. And others, I just "knew" that "running" wouldnt get me to the bathroom in time. One time my dear sweet man sacrificed one of his socks so I could wipe my bottom in the bushes. :lol: He never lets me forget that one. I...

ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)
ShayFL replied to AliB's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
All enzymes die at 130 degrees. So I dont heat my raw goat milk past 110. The catch is that you better "know" your goat milk source. Should come from healthy, grass-fed, organic and clean goats. We have a great dairy close by that has the best goat milk. So clean and pure. They exceed Federal guidelines for sanitation. It is all they do. In FL... -
ARCHIVED Do I Need To Give Up Dairy Temporarily
ShayFL replied to finlayson's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Do you have a copy of your Endoscopy lab report? Were your villi damaged or flattened? If yes, then if it were me, I would give up dairy for a few months to let those very tips of the villi heal. Often Casein the protein in milk is the biggest problem. Lactose is a sugar that many cannot break down. -

Enterolab's genetic tests are accurate. They use the American Red Cross for Molecular Gene Analysis. -
ARCHIVED What Are We Missing?
ShayFL replied to The Mama's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Is she getting gluten at school? -
Do you have copies of your actual lab work? What it sounds like is they found damaged villi or flattened villi in your intestines (gold standard sign of Celiac), but they did the bloodwork to make sure (a few other things can damage the villi). Your bloodwork was positive also. YOU ARE CELIAC. You need to be 100% gluten-free to heal. And most have...

Sorry you are not feeling well. Did you get tested for H. Pylori? If you have it, it will need to be treated. I personally would use Mastic Gum and Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice plus lots of fresh/clean water to get rid of it. But ask your doctor about this. I would also take Digestive enzymes with my meals. Like "Digest More". No HCL (Hydrochloric...

If G-d came down and said "Sharon you can eat anything you want and never get sick." Well, yeah, then I would eat anything and everything. But if I stopped having gluten sensitivity I would not eat gluten. No. I do not think GRAINS are fit for human consumption. I think of grains as animal feed (as nature intended). I believe grains are the bane of...

ARCHIVED Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD)
ShayFL replied to AliB's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
The starter shouldnt be added at that high a temp. 90 - 110 is good. I am actually trying the goat milk yogurt myself right now. Had an issue with the Keifer I was drinking (edema) but it was pasteurized. So I made a batch of "RAW" goat milk yogurt with acidophilus starter and have been eating it for 5 days now with no problems. I think the pasteurization... -
ARCHIVED A Question For The Experienced
ShayFL replied to katebuggie28's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Your tummy might not be producing enough HCL (Hydrochloric Acid) to digest meat. You can supplement if the steak bothers you to see if that helps. But you may be just fine. I was vegan then vegetarian for about 7 years. Till a Chinese doctor told me I needed to eat red meat. I went and bought a steak and ate it that night with no problems (when it...
