This year I am tasked with making thanksgiving for me and my diabetic parents. SO we are having Turkey roasted in a turkey bag rubbed with nutiva butter flavored coconut oil (under the skin and over the breast), liquid smoke and poultry seasoning, stuff with half a onion, 2 butts of celery bunches, and half a lemon and topped with bacon to keep it moist and let that flavor sink in. Side will be dressing made with my keto bread seasoned with poultry seasoning, with coconut milk chicken stock, minced and sauteed onion and celery, 2 tbsp ground flax and a egg white.  Also going to make an new dinner roll recipe (soon to be posted) that is chewy, buttery, nutty flavored, homemade gravy made with the drippings, trimmings, bacon, and fixing from the turkey fresh rosemary and 3 Roma tomatoes minced in, 1 cup chicken broth, 1 cup dry sherry simmered down crushed up and strained out served in a gravy bowl with roasted walnuts in the bottom, dessert line up will be sweet potatoes boiled chopped up in a pan submerged in orange juice, topped with cinnamon, coconut sugar, and nut meg.  AND  some keto muffins for myself ( I will only be able to eat the dressing and keto muffins but I can eat with my family which is what matters) Full on gluten free meal

I am also tasked with Christmas dinner, my sister will be joining us this year along with her husband and new born baby, I am doing this meal where I can eat a bit of the main course, It will be a smoked full fillet of salmon with smoked paprika on it smoked in the smoker til nice and flaky, for them I am also roasted new potatoes, chopped rough, tossed in nutiva butter flavored coconut oil with some rosemary and black pepper and roasted in the oven. Green beans cooked with pieces of peppered turkey bacon, paleo banana nut muffins with pecans, and keto cinnamon rolls for myself,  with perhaps some keto diner rolls. Breaking out the gluten free hard ciders for my father and brother in law and some nice wine for the ladies. I will be making my own treat with stevia mulled tea with rum extract to taste like a treat.

As a chef it is a bit of fun, it is also stressful. BUT  I get to have a FAMILY dinner with relatives in a SAFE environment no worries about gluten or corn making me sick or having a allergic reaction. THAT IS WORTH IT. Peace of mind with my family eating together like the old times.

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Allergy Meds

      By John.B · Posted

      Hello, Target recently changed their branding on the Up & Up Loratadine and no long have it labeled gluten free. I've not been able to find any meds labeled gluten free for allergies. Some lists showed them but the the packaging isn't labeled.  Wondering if anyone knows of or has a list that would be safe for Celiac kiddos.

      Weird Symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Weird Symptoms

      By Jeff Platt · Posted

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.
