Wheat allergy is not the same as celiac disease, and to get a blood test for celiac disease you need to be eating ~2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks beforehand. If you ask your doctor for a celiac disease blood panel it should be what you need to be screened for celiac disease. Here is more info:

      air fryer recipes?

      By mbrookes · Posted

      Google is your friend. I just put in " air frier Whatever" and get recipes that so far have been really. After a while you see what they are doing and you can convert your old recipes to air frier. I love mine!

      abnormal weight loss

      By glucel · Posted

      I had a triple bypass so do not eat cheese or butter but I use avocado oil freely. Do not eat potato chips etc every night anymore instead fruit and or bowl of cereal with nut milk. Diet is much cleaner now but qty remains the same. My diet seems nutritional enough and pretty much follows: breakfast- hard boiled egg, 1/2 oz beef liver, cereal: flax, milk thistle pumpkin seed and oatmeal mixed together Lunch/dinner-  meat, chicken or salmon with potato or rice or quinoa and veggies no oil sometimes salad with dressing. Bread if needed. supper- 3 slice bread peanut or cashew butter or 5 grain cereal with nut milk, or soup loaded with rice or whatever evening- fruit maybe potato chips or cookies when I just have to do it. Ordinarily try not to keep them in house. I put on a pound or so when potato chips are eaten for couple days. I use to eat much more fat but am more careful now after bypass so suppose that makes a difference. I think small intestine might have something to do with it but was looking for confirmation.

      I've been trying to cook healthier for my diabetic husband and my gluten free self.  My dermatitis herpetiformis eats almost all gluten-free in our home. Does anyone have any good recipes for an airfryer??

      tumeric has to be supplemented with a little black pepper for your body to metabolize it. It just takes a little bit.
