  1. Kris you are so gentle and understanding of your son. It makes me want to cry. He'll be all he's meant to be simply because he's in an environment of love and compassion. I really believe he'll be fine. I'm also glad for this discussion, its been so enlightening. I always wondered why I attract kids with special needs. For instance about 3 mo...
  2. I have an internet friend, met her years ago, who sees colors over people. She sees it as a gift she has and uses it for the ministry she's in. She's very involved in the ministry and when people are in God's Spirit and being used by God she knows by lights around them that are green. When a false prophet comes or someone is not being used by God but they...
  3. Cheeses are very high in Amines also if you want to consider that. These foods include dark chocolate, alot of fish and sausages. Amines are a result of protein breaking down. Therefore, aged orvercooked and processed meats are high in amines. Browning, grilling, charring will increase amine levels. Amines increase in ripening fruits that go soft, e...
  4. Thanks for the links Geoff. I have never heard of this drink until today. Can't wait to try it......I'm cooking the tapioca pearls right now. Gail
  5. I was reading up on tapioca since I've been using it alot in my new bread recipe. Apparently in Taiwan, a drink called bubble tea is all the rage. I think you can order it in your bigger cities here in the states and I was wondering if anyone has tried it. It does look good! Kinda funny I want to make it now. It has the little tapioca balls that sink...
  6. On the subject of sensory overload does anyone else have problems when on your computer screen they'll have anything flashing or blinking. It drives me crazy. I find it so distracting. When they flash images during the commercials on t.v. I have to sometimes get up and leave the room. Its one of those things that adds to the already stressful environments...
  7. I was thinking about getting a mill to grind brown rice as I need it. I would be sure of it being fresh that way since the oils can get rancid. So my husband was going to get something at out local health store and I had him ask the owner what is the best brand. He told my husband to get one with a hand grinder because the motor on the electric ones get...
  8. Have you ever oven roasted vegetables before? It brings out a sweetness in the veggie. I'll cut up carrot into a matchstick size, slice a red onion into slices then halve and halve again. Any root veggie works good. Then put on a baking sheet and enough olive oil to coat the veggies. Put in 400 degree oven for about 20 min. Make sure you do a load of...
  9. What I like about you Ursula is your so full of adventure. I always say I'd like to learn how to play an instrument but you actually do it. Also you don't seem to let your daughters comments bother you which is good. I get hurt when someone corrects me and so I probably have trained them (unintentionally) to not say anything but I never learn that way...
  10. Sandy thanks for starting this thread. I read all the threads you've started regarding aspergers with great interest. I came to realise I am a shadow asperger. I never even knew what asperger was until this year. But it describes me in so many ways. I don't want to take alot of time to describe anything at length here but in response to the sleep thing...
  11. Has anyone tried the ones sold at Sam's? I used to buy these when the boys were young and they were good. I don't remember the name of them. I forgot about them. Gail
  12. How about people who are sensitive to molds and fungus? People with candida? I can't remember if xanthan gum is ever mentioned in the list of foods to avoid with candida. Gail
  13. Thanks for this info. I knew that Anne's dressings would always bother me when I would put them on my salads. I get real queezy after. I started to make my own dressings as a result of this. I just checked and its in almost all baking mixes. It pretty hard to escape it. I can't get over how gross this is though. If I see black spots on my cauliflower...
  14. I have to agree Melinda and Lakisha rocked last night. Lakisha looked like she even surprised herself. She looked confident while she was singing but after that she got so quiet. If I could sing like that I sure wouldn't be working as a bank teller (I think thats what she does) On the View today they showed a clip of Blake singing again. Elizabeth...
  15. What aisle did you find them in? Are they like a candy bar/protein bar.
  16. If you lost that much weight I suppose this could be why your weak. Are there other foods you could be reacting to? If you were eating wheat for breakfast, lunch and dinner and stopped eating it there's that big void and it takes awhile to come up with alternatives. Also it might feel like your full when your probably not just because your stomach has...
  17. One of the very first symptoms that went away for me was the next morning I didnt have pain running up and down my legs. Rather a weird one isn't it. Then of course other good things followed later alittle at a time. One of the most talked about 1st symptom of an accidental glutening is a rumbling in your stomach (mine can be quite loud). Then I'll...
  18. How exciting Ryan! It does open alot more choices if you can tolerate them. Good advice Ravenwood. I didn't have oats for a year and tried them little by little and made sure that the oats are safe from cc. Gail
  19. Sorry to hear about this Steve. Try and keep positive thoughts even though its hard. Can you put on some music? Try and keep talking about it to others before talking to your mom to get the anger out. I hate to give any other advice because you probable know what works and what doesn't by now. Just know I hate that this has happened and feel bad for...
  20. Have you've been gluten free yet? Your hypogycemia will probably improve once your off gluten. Helps to eat 6 meals aday. Try to include a protein in that meal and complex carb. Watch out with pototoes, and white rice and eating high sugar fruits. Do you do ok with soymilk? Oatmeal with soymilk and steavia to sweeten is a good first meal. I also add...
  21. Hi and welcome to the boards. If your wondering why you have diarrhea after you went gluten free for just a few days it might be just to early to expect anything yet. There is probably gluten still in your system. Also your changing your diet and adding more fruit and veggies. It maybe your body adjusting to the fiber. Also fruit tends to make loose...
  22. If you have been eating virtually nothing but vegetables and fruit for three years, you almost certainly have a protein deficiency. Protein deficiency causes coldness, fluid accumulation, fatigue and a lack of hormones and enzymes. Eating more protein (fish, eggs, lean meat, pulses, nuts, yoghurt) will help you lose some of your excess fluid, and you will...
  23. One of the regrets I have in life was following the advice of my mother in law who told me to mix up alittle of the baby cereals with milk before putting my babies to bed and they'll sleep through the night. I started this at only 3 mo. because I wanted to sleep. I don't remember if it was rice or wheat but I just cringe when I think about it. I breastfed...
  24. I only watched the last hour of it but I liked the guy who had blond hair and wore it spiked up. His voice was so smooth. I love American Idol but I don't always get to see it. I didn't see the show last week so I don't know the names yet. Gail
  25. First of all welcome to the boards its always nice to see a new member. I think denial is common especially when your young and you don't get symptoms that aren't real bad. There's nothing you can do about that now, its in the past and what you do for now on is whats important. The more days your into the diet clean the more you'll feel better physically...
