    I don't do it on purpose But I did get to watch my favorite news show:World News Now. It's got a cult following of insomniacs. I really like the accordion player with The World News Polka And they drank the cat poop coffee

    Good morning all. It's 3:30 in the morning and I'm starting my day out right with a big cup of coffee and an exercise video on the tv. (They do work if you play them while your on the computer, right?) I don't know why they use those 20 year old, 80 pound skinny girls to do these. I'd be much more inspired by a 40 yo slightly dumpy woman with great balance...

    The kids learn the basics in med school, but then they spend four years in residency where their practical education is dictated by the older physicians teaching them. I don't think starting from the ground and going up will work in this structure. You've got to convince the existing docs and count on them to pass on their knowledge. While there are...

    I feed my cats costco cat food. Gluten free, first ingredients are actual food, not by-products.

    Excellent! Now you can choose where he'll be taking you (sending you??) on your next vacation. Pick somewhere with a great sounding name.

    Doesn't Canada deal with protesters by looking at them askance until they succumb to peer pressure and go quietly back to their houses?

    "Dublin Clouds" what a great name for an eye shadow!

    Poor boy. I've had an ear infection as an adult and it's unbelievable how painful they are. At least the rupture is supposed to ease the pain (even though the concept sounds horrific).

    I have some issues with the biology of your quote, but it doesn't really change my statement. If your liver is willing to allow this enzyme into your bloodstream, why would it not digest proteins from a food source?
  19. Jestgar
    since it's a proteolytic enzyme it might be something as simple as breaking down the really big proteins that you are eating, thereby (inadvertently) making proteins you're allergic to (even just a little) non-reactive. If both yo and your sister's symptoms are caused by reactions to food, this would explain why it works for you (and why it wouldn't work...

    I'm mildly sensitive to a lot of foods. If I eat them for dinner, or too many days in a row, I wake up between 1 and 3 am. Same thing you describe, I feel completely awake, until about 4, when I can fall back asleep. After many weeks of sleeping badly I've finally just accepted it and limit what I eat.

    I sense the approach of chaos!! I've already been sucked into the mineral thread, what's next?? Janet gently admonishing us about our manners? Amanda hauling off and slugging one of her obnoxious coworkers? NO FLUIDS AT MILESTONE POSTS!?!?!? How will we ever know what's real and what's hallucination!?!?! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    They do look kind of evil, don't they? I was trying to do a pick for the makeup thread and I hated all of them. gotta get a camera with really bad resolution

    I'm afraid the answer to most of your questions is probably 'it depends'. Of the 10,000 or so people on this board, you'll find 10,000 unique experiences. Some people recover the ability to eat all food, others don't. If cheddar cheese isn't bad, but yogurt is, it might be lactose. You could try taking a lactaid tablet before having your yogurt and...

    Jestgar replied to cupp125's topic in Doctors

    I saw a paper one time wherein they evaluated the cost effectiveness of testing every member of a diagnosed Celiac's family (as they do in Italy). The conclusion was that it would save the insurance companies and the health care system money, bur just a little. This was at least a year ago and nothing has changed. Since doctor's teach each other, all...
