According to your profile your at hotmail. This probably means hotmail is bouncing the emails automatically. Personally I never used hotmail (and wouldn't for a lot of reasons) but yahoo mail and gmail allow you to take "spam" sites out of the "spam list"... I don't know about MSN... you will have to look in the options. Secondly, so far as I know...

ARCHIVED Bleu Cheese

Basically it depends on the manufacturer. For instance, some Roquefort is started of with a culture grown on rye bread whereas other's are naturally allowed to develop mould from the cave. -
ARCHIVED Biopsy Etc. And Amnesiac Drugs - Concern
gfp replied to gfp's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Not sure we have any yet! I just think memories are something you don't mess with and worry that like with LSD these memories might come flooding back years later. I'm also pretty worried when a pro-recreational drug site lists something as -

gfp replied to em2005's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Gotta go but quck post.. I agree the RDA has been way to high for a long time but this greatly over simplifies the subject. Protein does not build muscle .. amino acids do when recombined to human protein. If you are not getting a balance of the essential amino acids then everything else is wasted and not used as protein and eventually converted to... -
ARCHIVED Biopsy Etc. And Amnesiac Drugs - Concern

worse still you are not going to remember saying no..... I had my stomach biopsy on local only (just a spray on my throat) and the whole thing was pretty horrid... Old style endoscope with fibre optic not TV.... but I didn't get an option for general (insurance) and didn't want amnesiac. At least if I had insisted he stop he would have had to rather... -

methinks as usual we will have to do this ourselves! Oh its sounds OK then? Well they are readily available on the black market if you like em so much.... Half joking... If Im going to get all drugged out then I'd rather have a more traditional anaesthetic who's effects are well known for thousands of years.. ... -
ARCHIVED Anyone Ever Get Glutened From Perfume? Smell Of Wheat?
gfp replied to tailz's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The effects might not be directly gluten related but I wonder if they are celaic related. Considering most people don't have strong reactions to most perfumes (or people wouldn't wear them) I find it more than coincidence so many of us suffer from perfumes and so many suffer more when glutened or before gluten-free Diet -
ARCHIVED Bottle Of Water Turns Woman Into A Festival Outlaw
gfp replied to angel-jd1's topic in Publications & Publicity
I think there is a big difference between commercial and charity events. If an event claims to be for charity then it should make allowances for people who can't afford to eat inside. I can't see why going to a charity event to donate should have a income barrier! "Sorry sir, we can't take your donation because we only accept it from people in... -
ARCHIVED Biopsy Etc. And Amnesiac Drugs - Concern

WARNING EXPECT EXPLICIT TALK AND SUBJECTS..... Lister ... Please don't read this. I have been holding off asking this question until your tests today. Everyone else who might not get offended.... The bottom line is I feel a bit concerned about amnesiac drugs. The whole idea of being concious but not remembering sounds like a recipe for disaster... -
And here is the point exactly.... What proof is there that your daughter going gluten-free will be harmed by the gluten-free diet? Absolutely none On the other hand what if this offsets other autoimmune disorders by 10 years not even forever, isn't THAT worth it? The point is i get a severe IgE response to lavendar when not gluten-free. When...
-
Most of this depends on the pretext that "leaky gut" in terms of zonulin is the only way autoimmune response is triggered and further that the permeability of the guy wall remains constant wrt proteins. Firstly a ref for your direct question: Lets consider it as science and not medicine. I am not aware of any studies that show...

Open Original Shared Link Its not really alarming people to let them know others have the same experience, indeed I think many people are relieved if they find others have the same reactions. -

gfp replied to em2005's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think this is a very good reason. Its not impossible to have a balanced vegan diet but it is very hard and you need a detailed knowledge of biochemistry to actually do it. I'm more than happy to beleive Jestgar has this knowledge and this is why it is so hard. Trying to maintain your essential amino aicds to anything like a balance on a vergan diet is... -
Yes I realise they are managing something but the question is if there were three chains, one TGI'f, and outback and a third who had a dedicated kitchen but charged a little extra for the gluten-free stuff BUT the gluten-free stuff was guaranteed. I agree here completely... individual restaurants rarely make much money.. Especially a franchise...

I don't think it will affect much... except you maybe being more relaxed....but I'd just mention it in passing to the Dr. if you're concerned... don't make a big deal its not great on your records...

Well I hate to contradict a pre-med student (I hated biol and paleo biol) or even MD but this particular misconception has gone on long enough. -

woooohoooo Great... keep up the good work... award yourself one gluten-free forum gold star -
Open Original Shared Link Erm this is fabulous news for those in the UK.... a bit less fabulous for me... I guess! Specifically cancer survival rates are much higher in France because they don't hold back expensive drugs... like the UK do and celiac diagnosis in Italy is a doddle!
-
I'd be really interested in a poll of how many people would pay more for their gluten-free meal than a regular meal. .. and I guess so would outback! I know a UK chain that makes a gluten-free range but they are all prepared off premises and just reheated to avoid CC issues. Personally I would be happy to pay more to reduce the risk.... How much...

ARCHIVED Alternative Cure? Or Am I Just Hopeful?
gfp replied to tailz's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Not really, that is part of the the problem. IMHO med school does too good a job knocking the scientist out of the prospective MD. 10 years ago medicine was 100% convinced there was no link between GERD and celiac despite over 50% of celaics sufffering GERD. I was categorically told the two were unlinked because that is what the literature said... -

Erm then get rid of all the gluten in your kitchen...... seriously... its not only easier but safer. -
Which is rather the point, especially since you have a fairly reasonable number of second language Italian speakers.... and ragu is a VERY VERY basic term that even a 10th generation Italian family who speak no Italian at home would use everyday. Additionally it is also a frequently used Spanish (borrowed from Italian) word I'm presuming I don...

ARCHIVED Feelings Of Becoming A Complete Obsessive-compulsive Freak
gfp replied to michelleL's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
This is not OCD this is common sense! Anyone working in an analytical lab works like this all day everyday, its just good practice because without it human error will occur. -
Ragu is a term utilised to indicate a sauce or "sauce dish" composed of several ingredients. (which varies according to the region) {presuming we conjugate seconda in the aggiuntive} but always with a meat base. Usually the ragu is used to "dress" a pasta or "moulded dish" moulded dish means like a souffle in this context being dervied from the...
