I discovered yesterday that Post's Cocoa Pebbles are gluten free!! I never expected to be so happy to see my daughter eat 'junk' cereal but she was so happy that it was 'normal' food and had Fred Flintstone on the box.

What is your favorite?

I found gluten free graham crackers and gluten free ice cream cones yesterday at a health food store near me. I was so excited to find these for my daughter. Now she can have graham crackers at preschool with the rest of the class. Not to mention they seem like they will make a good pie crust for something. And the ice cream cones...what 3 year old doesn't want a ice cream cone like everyone else! I haven't tried them yet, but I am thinking positively!!!

Envirokids Koala Bars. The kids love them and they're so nice for on-the-go snacking.

Pamela's baking mix and gluten-free pretzles (and I think they taste better than regular ones)

Amy's frozen mac and cheese. It's great to have for a quick lunch. My parents keep boxes at their house in case of a babysitting emergency. I keep a box at school in the freezer for an emergency lunch for my son. My kids love it and would eat it all day if I'd let them!

They are called S'morables by Kinnikinnick. I was quite impressed with the taste and my 3 year old loves them!!

My 2 favourite gluten-free foods of all time: the ready-made Pyrogies (which are worth paying almost $6 for a dozen), and recently Glutano soup crackers are back. LOVE the soup cracker. I am a huge fan of Glutino mushroom soup, so the Glutano crackers go along perfectly!

Other gluten-free cereals...

Rice Chex is now. This just occurred in the past 2-3 months.

Little Einsteins is but we cannot find it anymore anywhere.

Fruity Pebbles too

Glutino's english muffins. They make great toast. Much better than gluten-free bread IMO. Not cheap of course at about a dollar a shot.

Rice Chex for sure.

Mine isn't one discovery but I was VERY pleased by the grocery store Wegmans and their gluten free aisle! I bought SO MUCH food for Violet! Tons of stuff that didn't have rice in it too! Violet is allergic to rice and it seems like so much is made with primarily rice flour but Wegmans had a ton NOT with rice flour! If you have one near you I highly rcommend this grocery store! I even found one pizza dough kit not made with rice!

I was thrilled about the Rice Chex of course. I've found all sorts of uses for them. Even use them for crumbs to make meat loaf. Another favorite of mine is Glutino's feta cheese and spinach pizza.

Omg yes...I usually would not eat either ingredient, but one day tried that pizza, and fell in love with it!

Surprisingly, the big health food stores here in DFW, Central Market & Whole foods, don't carry Glutino. But we have a Sprouts Market, a small version of Whole Foods, and that's where I first discovered Glutino products. They also carry Glutino crackers, pretty damn good IMO.

BTW, the Glutino english muffins are also a bit on the greasy side, but tasty.

The only 2 bread products I like from Glutino is the baguettes and the hamburger buns. Mmmm hamburger buns. Too bad I can't eat hamburgers very often lol. But next time I plan to make a trip to Wendy's I think I'll take a bun along!

gluten-free Crackers! Glutino is AWESOME and one of my favorite brands!

I also discovered that mixing peanut butter and jelly in a bowl and eating it is just as good as a PBand J sandwich. And rolling up most other sandwich ingredients together are just as good too.

But I can't find any decent gluten-free hot dog buns....

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      @glucel, I agree with @trents.  You can still do the AIP diet while taking aspirin.   I'm one of those very sensitive to pharmaceuticals and have gotten side affects from simple aspirin.  Cardiac conduction abnormalities and atrial arrhythmias associated with salicylate toxicity https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3952006/ Another part of the problem is that those drugs, aspirin and warfarin, as well as others, can cause nutritional deficiencies.  Pharmaceuticals can affect the absorption and the excretion of essential vitamins, (especially the eight B vitamins) and minerals.   Potential Drug–Nutrient Interactions of 45 Vitamins, Minerals, Trace Elements, and Associated Dietary Compounds with Acetylsalicylic Acid and Warfarin—A Review of the Literature https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11013948/   Aspirin causes a higher rate of excretion of Thiamine Vitamin B1.  Thiamine deficiency can cause tachycardia, bradycardia, and other heart problems.  Other vitamins and minerals, like magnesium, are affected, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make life sustaining enzymes.  Without sufficient Thiamine and magnesium and other essential nutrients our health can deteriorate over time.  The clinical symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are subtle, can easily be contributed to other causes, and go undiagnosed because few doctors recognize Thiamine deficiency disorders. Thiamine deficiency disorders: a clinical perspective https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/ Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals.  Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals can boost absorption.   Our bodies cannot make vitamins and minerals.  We must get them from our diet.  The Gluten free diet can be low in Thiamine and the other B vitamins.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to be enriched nor fortified with vitamins and minerals like their gluten containing counterparts. You would be better off supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals than taking herbal remedies.  Turmeric is known to lower blood pressure.  If you already have low blood pressure, taking turmeric would lower it further. Curcumin/turmeric supplementation could improve blood pressure and endothelial function: A grade-assessed systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38220376/ I've taken Benfotiamine for ten years without any side effects, just better health.

      Muscle atrophy in legs

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Polymyositis is a rare autoimmune disease that makes your immune system attack your muscles. Any autoimmune disease is associated with low vitamin D.   Even as a kid I had weak legs.  Now I feel the burn just walking to the mailbox. A case-control study found that patients with polymyositis (PM) had higher lactate levels at rest and after exercise, indicating impaired muscle oxidative efficiency. The study also found that an aerobic training program reduced lactate levels and improved muscle performance.

      Micronutrient Inadequacies in the US Population "A US national survey, NHANES 2007-2010, which surveyed 16,444 individuals four years and older, reported a high prevalence of inadequacies for multiple micronutrients (see Table 1). Specifically, 94.3% of the US population do not meet the daily requirement for vitamin D, 88.5% for vitamin E, 52.2% for magnesium, 44.1% for calcium, 43.0% for vitamin A, and 38.9% for vitamin C. For the nutrients in which a requirement has not been set, 100% of the population had intakes lower than the AI for potassium, 91.7% for choline, and 66.9% for vitamin K. The prevalence of inadequacies was low for all of the B vitamins and several minerals, including copper, iron, phosphorus, selenium, sodium, and zinc (see Table 1). Moreover, more than 97% of the population had excessive intakes of sodium, defined as daily intakes greater than the age-specific UL" My Supplements: Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg  (Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) levels in the body decrease steadily with age, reaching 10–20% of young adult levels by age 70.

      The paleo diet is based on the idea that the human body evolved to consume a balanced ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, and that the modern diet is out of balance. A healthy ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 is 1:1–4:1, while the modern diet is closer to 20:1–40:1. The paleo diet aims to restore this balance.

      Best thing you can do for them! First-degree family members (parents, siblings, children), who have the same genotype as the family member with celiac disease, have up to a 40% risk of developing celiac disease. Make sure you and they get enough vitamin D and iodine in their diet.   Iodine deficiency is a significant cause of mental developmental problems in children, including implications on reproductive functions and lowering of IQ levels in school-aged children. Vitamin D deficiency is common in the United States, affecting up to 42% of the population.
