    Thank you for this information -- very interesting. I had not read about that anywhere else before now. Much appreciated.

    Hi, Evie: Okay, so I'm bound and determined that we're going to be able to eat our much-loved beans no matter what!!!!! I've been doing a little research, and it seems cross-contamination is a huge problem, both with dry beans as well as canned. With my one bag of red beans, I probably just lucked out and got a bag that -- so far -- might not have...

    Thank you so much for this information. I do probably have nerve damage - numbness in toes and tingling in legs and arms.

Yet, I've read that more is required. What is the norm? I am new here and very, VERY thankful for this forum and everyone's help. Best, Lyn

    I am new here. Reading this: " if you eat gluten, you lose years off your life. Want that? I don't think so." This frightens me. I am eating gluten every day while waiting to get in for a test at University of Chicago. I have been symptomatic for many years (without my realizing what was possibly going on of course). Does this mean that I have seriously...
