The weekend before Christmas we took my stepson to dinner at Open Original Shared Link in Silver Lake. Actually we took almost the whole family and it was for his birthday. Anyways, they do have a gluten free menu but it isn't completely up to date with their current regular menu. The server was very helpful, I didn't ask for a gluten-free menu but she overheard me say something and brought me the menu. She told me what had changed since that one was printed. She also double checked and I was able to eat the spring rolls and the sauce on them. I will admit I didn't check the label, she did. I know that could have been bad, but I ended up eating a wonderful meal and not getting sick at all. NOTHING la la la so happy about that.

Open Original Shared Link on the other hand, I always get sick. The only one we eat at is in Alderwood mall and I always get sick. I can order a plain salad with vinegar oil dressing and get sick. I am not about to tell any server there I am eating the way I am for a reason, they are all young and I don't think they would get it. I didn't want to eat there but we were at the mall and I hadn't eaten and I figured the plainest of foods I might be ok. NOPE it is settled we won't eat there again. SIGH I got so sick. Thankfully it wasn't for days on end but it was not good. I know I have mentioned them before and I know I didn't want to eat there again but now I know, I would rather starve! Oh the irony, it practically is starving after eating there isn't it?

Next time you are at/near the mall, go to the Old Spaghetti Factory on 196th. They have a gluten free menu. You'll have to tell them "no bread", otherwise they will bring it. You might also try A.P. Barbara's, also on 196th. They do not have a gluten free menu but have been good to work with us on our food issues. Daughter usually gets a steak with no seasonings. I get the chopped sirloin. Or we get the hummus appetizer, subbing cucmber slices for the pita bread. We also dine frequently at the Old Country Buffet. We are very careful there, knowing that cross contamination is an issue. We tend to take only things that are freshly put out and we tend to stick to things like vegetables and plain fruit.

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      By cookiesyum · Posted

      The easiest way to remember the difference between the cholesterol types is HDL;   H=healthy equals healthy (omega 3, 7, limit 6 & 9 MCFA'S =Medium Chain Fatty Acids. 3= coconut oil, 7= sunflower oil, avocado. The higher your HDL the healthier you are & less likely to experience strokes, clogged arteries Etc. You can even use cold expeller pressed coconut oil on your skin and that is the best kind of coconut oil to eat as well. You want your HDL much higher than your LDL, it will help you stay healthy.   LDL;    L=Lousy. Meat fats, processed fats.  The higher your LDL is the more likely you will have strokes, clogged artery is, heart disease, fatty liver.   Then there's lipids... they are the culprit to be blamed for many heart attacks and things like that they are very small round particles that transport fats. You can have a low overall cholesterol reading and most of it be healthy cholesterol and have a ton of lipids and there's nothing you can do to change the lipid count. High number of lipids is very dangerous.   I'm going on statins is extremely dangerous if you ask me it's just completely my opinion, because I have seen so many of my elderly friends bleed to death internally because of the statins. I mean you wouldn't take all the oil and grease out of your car or a motorcycle and then try to drive it that way would you? You see that's what statins do they remove all of your bodies fats and it doesn't matter whether it's healthy fats or a lousy fats. It removes all of them and then your body can't function properly. You have to have fats to keep your skin supple and to stay warm. Your body also needs fats to digest & process certain nutrients, amino acids & vitamins.   Your brain is composed of fat so is that something you really want to remove with a pill every morning and night?   The thing about statins is that they also make the blood vessels and capillaries permeable. So this is how my friends who were on cardiac medication for a long time and statins ended up bleeding internally to death.   If you want to make sure that your heart is healthy, take odorless garlic at night and magnesium, vitamin K & calcium.

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      Feel Good gluten free chicken soup dumplings

      By Visionaerie · Posted

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Glutening symptom? oily stool

      By ognam · Posted

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info
