    Couldn't agree more. but I'll add something.... gluten free preparation costs time and time costs money. Ideally it should be a dedicated kitchen... at the very minimum preparation should take place before other gluten containing foods.

    ARCHIVED Ragu?

    gfp replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    That's my point really.... its so simple...its cheaper and you can be a lot more flexible with your ingredients. and... it really doesn't take any time if you start by boiling water for spagetti.... by the time its cooked the ragu is ready. I'm not saying it might not get better cooked slowly but its still got to be better than something in a jar packed...

    Honestly I understand which is why i suggest printing out a few relevant papers ....make sure they are good medical ones and conveniently have them. Im presuming as a sales rep you travel... so just say you printed em out for your own use but finished with them. If you wanna play then let the Dr's EGO work and ask them to explain the paper over lunch...

    Honestly I think its a mix of everything.... Firstly as eKatherine pointed out a week or so ago 90% of diseases treated by Dr's actually go away all by themselves. Sometimes this treatment might accelerate healing sometimes it just relieves symptoms... For instance taking vitamin C for a common cold ... In the UK the second most common ailment...

    Lister, this is your thread, at least read it.

    Just feed it what you eat.....supplimented with low grade meats. Its probably easier to buy from a butcher/farmer in hicksville than a big city.... Dogs are omnivorous though they do benefit from more meat than we do .... root vegetables, left overs (preferably not spicy) ... and all of this will be healthier for the dog than dried food. I really...

    Well fair enough i don't know US federal law on this but I really don't see how. My girlfreinds mom does a lot of charity work for a foundation where they accompany people to different venues, especially wheelchair bound people who's carer might need a break. Being an artsy person she gets a lot of museums, galleries and sometimes concerts... but especially...

    ARCHIVED Eating At Restaurants

    gfp replied to LL04's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Not really, most of the old studies on this are fundamentally flawed since their control population is presumed to have an insignificant number of celiacs (1:5000) when in reality it has 1:133 However the other reasin is in its simplest form cancer is caused by mutation in cell replication. In other words the more cells replicate the larger the chance...

    Bree, if I can suggest start a new thread specifically on the tests... Also we can offer you endless help on coping with celiac, it seems so hard at first and its really not... Try and keep a thread on each type of question (gluten-free living, test results etc.) and you get better responses that way. After what you've been through we will all...

    Nah, Im a geologist... (well geochemist) but ion channel research is a fast track to a Nobel prizxe nowadays! Honestly its horribly complex for even a chemist cos its not REAL chemistry its neuron cellular chemistry and how for instance muscles actually work... (how the elctricity is generated and used) ...way beyond me so I can kinda follow it from...

    ARCHIVED Ragu?

    gfp replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Yep sure for a classic quick bolognaise .... Start off and chop onions and start frying (1/2 onion per person is about right if you are adding meat, if its a neapolitan more onion and no meat) Add a teaspoon to table spoon of mixed herbs and when onions softens and some salt and 1/2-1 clove garlic per person sliced thin or crushed (I use the flat of...

    Honestly why take the risk when you can make one from scratch while the pasta cooks? I mean its probably OK but if you used tinnned tomatoes you can make a pasta sauce in the same time....

    Yep and his dad winding him up like this i can see why...

    Single molecule water actually refers to a bound molecule... its a biochemistry term used in relation to cell level permeability ion channles in cells. For instance mamba's use a toxin known as dendrotoxin which blocks the K+ channel ... Interestingly for us: This is connected with spinocerebellar ataxia and MS.... Quite what the health...

    Well you really weren't to know... I just thought people should realise why I was being evasive... I guess everyone understands if i put it like that

    Can I suggest the good old fashioned lots of fruits? Figs and prunes are pretty efficient.... In a real emergency a massage with blackpepper oil is prety much guaranteed.. but it will clean you out completely..

    Actually the priest was also a interesting person to talk to.... The thing is it ran a bit deeper than divorce but I'm not going into details of my mom's sex-life here Both of you.... If you want I will set you up a website where you can help share this with other moms and also post things like cases you find oput about.... I hope both...

    He sadly died a few years ago but he was an Anglican priest but very very close to catholic .... (latin in services and even confession) ... but seriously he was a nice guy.. he just believed this was the reason... but he was nominally Anglican but attended a lot of catholic seminaries with the blessing of his bishop whom I also used to know. He's...

    I'm all for the more salt... those diarrea packets contain a balanced solution BUT its in glucose and the other thing you should do is check your blood sugar. The easiest simple way is to ask a diabetic friend..... make sure you know the correct GI and if its anytihng off this see a Dr. ... and don't start huge amounts of glucose... first. If your blood...

    yeah both my mom and myself have always had these boils, they superficially look like zits but they are not.. they usually occupy several follicles not a single one... I have a feeling they are related to celiac... maybe the body expelling toxins?? since my mom and I get them but my brother non celaic doesn't. Both mine and my mothers have really...

    Quite literally.... I wonder if promethius had anything to do with it.... Literally GM is a pandora's box. Noone knows what's inside the only certainty is once the lid is off its not going back inside.

    OK, I was going to say this anyway .... But should we laugh or cry???? Have you thought of carrying literature in your briefcase? Especially ones showing incidence in the US. you could really educate a lot of Dr's very gently by "just having a copy" in your briefcase you were taking to read on the plane, car etc.

    Personally I hate cockroaches.... I have lived in many 3rd world countires and I really hate them BUT they are not going to harm you if theyre cooked. You can't really sue because of your sensibilities??? I mean people in china eat them all the time...
