My brother called me today to tell me about this broadcast. Here's a link.

I thought it was interesting and thought provoking, even though this piece centers more on childhood allergies vs. adult onset food allergies and intolerances.

One of my thoughts were that I haven't come down with the flu or a cold since I eliminated gluten, soy, corn and dairy from my diet, even though I work in doctor's offices, hopitals, rehab centers, etc. and regularly get exposed to viruses.

Hyperactive autoimmune system? Too clean? Interesting concepts...

Also, the Feb. edition of the magazine "For Women First" has a two page spread about gluten intolerance that is pretty good.

Anyway, that's my hot news tips. I tried reintroducing dairy (Greek Yogurt) in my diet on Saturday. Yesterday was the pits, today was a little better. Tomorrow will be a better day! (I'll just click my heels together and remind myself! :P )

      Cooking with Scallop Medalions

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I believe I've seen them at Costco still in the shells (in the frozen seafood area), which might be a safe way to go.

      Is this safe for someone with celiac disease?

      A dedicated rack is a great idea if everyone in the house understands and supports the idea, and just to clarify, I didn't recommend just wiping the rack down, but washing it well in soap and hot water.

      Thanks, I appreciate you getting back to me.  Sometimes the retailers don't have content info on products they sell and they have rewrapped them with no ingredients list. Guess I'll stick to prepackaged medalions with all the info.

      I find that I sometimes have symptoms due to cross-contact with foods that *might* be contaminated in the processing. 100% gluten-free certification is something I look for in every processed food I consume.

      I would not be comfortable with just wiping down the rack after a gluten-containing food was cooked on it. When I cook pizza in the oven, my gluten-free pizza goes on the top rack - nothing else is ever placed directly on that top rack, gluten or not. Contact with minute traces of gluten cause me symptoms within a few hours. If I heat a gluten-free roll in my toaster oven, I place it on a small bit of foil so that it does not directly contact the rack that *might* have traces of gluten on it.
