    You click the little "reply" button in the lower right hand corner of the post. It will bring up the reply window with the text of the current post in it, which you may edit to remove the irrelevant parts. I even made a "mock steak" that totally looked like a steak, colored with beet juice, paprika, and cocoa, with a white strip around the outside. Those...

    The celiac diet is not a fad. It's the blood type diet that's the fad diet. Everywhere you go in the world there are mixed blood types, and nowhere have people divided themselves up by blood type to eat differently. There is basically no evidence to support the theory - it's just kind of a test tube experiment that the book wants you to design your life...

    The lard which is sold in the solid blocks (Armour brand) is hydrogenated, too. Natural lard is a semisolid sold refrigerated in Mexican markets, or you render your own. I suggest you use hydrogenated lard sparingly.

    If I was in the mood for a hamburger on a bun, I would use a Kinnikinnock "englsh muffin", which is a lot more like a roll in texture than an english muffin. I would slice it in three slices, and put the middle back for toast some morning.

    The doctor is responsible for making sure that the people in his office don't hurt you. He can't pass that responsibility off on somebody else. If he's going to allow them to give you advice, he should have some reassurance that they know what they're talking about.

    Do you need a doctor's permission not to eat something that is clearly making you sick? Of course not. Don't worry about anything but staying healthy.

    You misunderstood my observation. What I was saying is that a newbie may ask a question that has a relatively straightforward answer, and several other relative newbies jump in and say, "I'd guess it's..." but their guess is just plain wrong. By the time someone comes in with correct information, they are already being drowned out by the noise level.

    Imagine a canker sore toothpaste containing gluten, why, it would be causing the very symptom it was supposed to be curing. That would be as though liquid immodium contained gluten itself. Oh...that's right, it does.

    Me, too. I was a member on a bunch of big food boards and I read them religiously. In fact, I was in the process of starting to write a cookbook on making seitan, imagine that.

    Cordain says that all meats should be trimmed very well of fat and, then you turn around and supplement the diet with perilla oil??? This in no way resembles any diet eaten by Paleo people during recent times, nor does the fossil record support this. They always ate the fatty parts. If you don't, you will end up eating way too much protein, yet not taking...

    Your oven is way too hot. You need to get yourself an oven thermometer. No wonder you can't bake.

    Open Original Shared Link are the instructions I used to use, although the site this was formerly located on had some nice illustrations. I color my hair, but in fact I only ever touch up the roots. I never put the color through my whole head of hair as the directions say to. Carla - There are 3 different levels of storebought hair color. Temporary...

    I have a shelf full of cannisters of different rice and other noodles I bought at the local Asian store. I have to say I don't care for the texture of the ones with tapioca in them. A favorite of mine is a Japanese potato starch noodle. I find that most of these cook up quicker and better if they are soaked until flexible before putting them in boiling...

    When a business continually chooses to hire people who are untrainable, I blame the business. There are people out there who are not totally clueless and are available. Yes, you might have to pay them twenty-five cents more an hour, but the increased productivity (time not wasted on stuff they should have picked up while working in a doctor's office) would...

    I understand it's not quite the same (not the same at all...) but surely some of your disappointed kids would be distracted by putting chocolate milk on some non-cocoa type cereal.

    It would be really cool to have an "Introduction to Celiac & Gluten Intolerance" in the form of a Word .doc ready to print up into a brochure on standard paper. It would be easy to carry around, and anyone who was interested in doing so could edit a paragraph or two to include a bit about their own experiences.
  17. eKatherine
    The problem is that when a question arises on the board, members offer help based on their own experience. In fact, experience varies a lot, and interpretation of observations for any one individual may not be applicable to anyone else, or may be preliminary - later might be shown to be incorrect with better testing, etc. So some of the more challenging threads...

    For 30 years I've been making a recipe that called for 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup white sugar, and 1 egg. When made that way it has the texture of shortbread. I have always made it at home with natural style peanut butter, but it comes out wth a different texture when made with commercial-style peanut butter.

    Indeed, I trust no one. Even those with good intentions want to cut how much I "need" rather than how much I want. I trim my own hair now.

    I have always had thick hair, though it is not as thick as it used to be. It is normal for it to seem like we're losing lots of hair. If you captured all the lost strands over a day or a week and counted them up, you might very well find that it falls within the normal range. It's also true that this is the shedding season, so you should expect extra...

    Get a Zojirushi, you deserve the best. Seriously, mine will keep rice fresh all day, nary a crust to be found.

    It's also possible to buy pure lactose from a beermaking supply store for not very much money if you've got one locally. That would probably test the lactose end of it for you.

    No, that would not have been enough gluten. They say you need to eat several slices of bread a day for months to get a positive biopsy. A gastrict emptying test will not be used to diagnose celiac. I suggest you look into enterolab for a genetic test.

    I remember coming home from college, and wherever my father was sleeping that night, the whole house shook.
