    I can't seem to tolerate millet or sorghum. Don't know why.

    Burt's Bees lip shimmers and lipsticks are gluten free. You can find them at any drugstore.

    The crust from Whole Foods gluten free warehouse is really good.

    Georgie, What should those T3 and T4 levels be? One of mine is high and my docs started to treat the adrenals. My antibodies at last check were down to 159 from 799.

    I have Hashimotos Hypothyroid and adrenal fatigue. I take cytomel. Just started Isocort ( a natural adrenal supplement). Make sure your docs check your Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies. This was the only test that showed I had this. The TSH is very very innacurate. Your antibodies should be below 20. Endos are the worst. I do long distance consulting with...

    why don't you try liquid or powdered vitamins?

    After I had high antibody test - 799! I started taking Armour thyroid meds. Switched to cytomel, but may switch back due to some info Georgie passed on. I am about to start Isocort for adrenal fatigue. If your antibodies are high you need meds. Don't let your doc put you on Synthroid. This rarely helps people. You should use Armour. Read drlowe.com. They...

    Rachel, HHV-6 can make you sick if it is re-triggered. It can cause chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms and other related issues. I have read about it in Jacob Titlebaum's book from fatigue to fantastic. There was specific reccomendations for treating it. It is difficult to treat. I'll check it out in my book tonight and get back to you tomorrow.

    Georgie is right. The one test your panel was probably missing was the Thyroid Peroxidase antibody test. This shows is your body is makin antibodies against your thyroid. It should be less than 20. This test will show if you have Hashimotos Hypothyroidism which is autoimmune and common in celiacs. All my tests were normal except this one. Adrenal fatigue...

    You could also have candida overgrowth which is common in celiacs or other food intolerances. As far as toiletries go I use Giovanni or Shakai shampoo and conditioner. I use Tom's of Maine soap and toothpaste and Avalon Organics lavender line for very sensitive skin. I use Aubrey Organic sensitive skin cream (unsented). Burt's Bees makes gluten free lipstick...

    Try Shelton's turkey burgers or Bell and Evans chicken burgers. Both are at whole foods.

    For those of you who can't find a good doc to help, contact Gina Honeyman-Lowe. She runs the center for Metabolic Health in Boulder Colorodo and have been my thyroid doc for 2 years. The website is drlowe.com. I do all long distant consult with her. My regular doc does everthing she says. Their site is very informative and will back up all the things Georgie...

    Thanks. I am looking for recipes for just coconut flour. Trying not to eat too much grains.

    I'll say it before and I'll say it again, you cannot trust quack watch. It is set up by anti-natural treatment people and they have been in trouble for false info. I really respect what Rachel has to say, and would like to see how things go for her. If you have any success Rachel, I am willing to check it out. This device is legal in Europe and has been...

    For anyone living near Western Mass. Greenfields Market (co-op) has against the grain products. The co-op also makes great gluten free muffins daily. They are in Greenfield Mass.

    I have been getting bloated since going gluten free. So go figure. It could be candida for me.

    I met a woman last week who did this here in Vermont. She said it has helped her, but she barely has anything to eat. I don't know what to think.
  19. loraleena
    I never eat fast food, nor do I want to. I showed the movie to my boyfriend who used to eat it once a week and he hasn't touched it since in almost 2 years.
  20. loraleena
    Is it sweetened with an artificial sweetener? These are so bad for you and maybe you had a reaction.

    At the one in Boston there was no dessert listed, but the waitress told me about the chocolate dome. Oh my god - yum!
  22. loraleena
    Have you tried Breads from Anna? Turned out great!
  23. loraleena
    Oh my god, I do the same thing at my boyfriend's house too. It doesn't help that he has a much smaller bed than me. Melatonin helps, but not always. Have you tried Valarien for anxiety or 5-HTP?
  24. loraleena
    I use Natrol brand and it is gluten free. It works great for me. Also Valarian works well to. You can take both if you want. Also Rooibus, (Red Tea) is good for sleep. Where do you get time release melatonin?? As far as Ambien goes, can you get it at a compounding pharmacy?

    I too am in a relationship with a Japanese man. Unfortuneatly we have been avoiding most asian food since I found out. I have noticed a lot of his Japanese snacks he likes have gluten in them or at least questionable ingredients. His good friend who is also Japanese, has been trying to modify recipes for me. Neither of them ever realized how much wheat...
