  1. Where is the update?
  2. I agree that gluten free isn't everything and that one should use caution about dyes when they eat. It might seem like gluten is everything on the forum, but the focus is celiac, so that would be natural. You might want to reask your question on the forum in diet section. I am on a natural-mostly organic scratch cooking diet and have been for years...
  3. I was in the kitchen, just minding my own business: the dishes. I had already put in a full day, or had I? For over a week, I had been suffering from a cold. The cold wasn't too bad, but the fatigue was overwhelming. It seemed I could accomplish nothing. This night the family of 7's dishes, for the whole day, were stacked on the counter. It was too...
  4. Today my older children were going out. My husband gave some money for our little ones (going with) to go out to eat . My 24 year-old daughter groaned. I have had to go out to eat too much lately. My acne really flares up when I do. I carefully exited the room. I gently climbed the stairs. Lastly, I skipped down the hall at top speed! My oldest...
  5. Five years back I had my last talk with my dentist. He told me that maybe I had an Autoimmune disease. Wow! That sounded big, but what could it mean? I didn't bother to look it up. I thought that maybe I was falling apart from the inside out. It seemed to me that I was dying; why go to a dentist? I needed to get to the bottom of my health problems...
  6. [oh and Irishheart? Just because you mentioned feeling sick from strong perfumes.:-) Am I recalling right that you have issues with sulfites? If that's correct, you might be interested to know that a lot of sulfite sensitive folks react to perfumes. Some have severe reactions, but most I've spoken to say their reactions are mild, often headaches, dizziness...
  7. I received a nice e-mail back from the hotdog company. They seemed to be doing everything right. To be sure, I won't eat them again for a while, but someday I will try them. If they work then I will shout the brand. Meanwhile,I wrote back and thanked the man for his reply and care.. He answered that I was welcome!
  8. Thanks, my genetic test say they couldn't hardly miss intolerance, but they are not ready for it yet.
  9. Is it your personal experience that lead you to this conclusion?
  10. Jun 20, 2012 It was to be my 5 year outing. That time when Mom goes to do her own thing. I was finally going to find some celiacs with live faces to share stories with. :) I figured out who would take care of the little ones. I scrambled to make a special homemade pizza which would be done before I left. This was my first pizza in a...
  11. In my second year of college (at 19 That would be 1982)., I fell ill with mono-nucleosis. I slept for up to 20 hours a day and was still tired. A month or so later, my blood tested normal, so I returned to college in an attempt to catch up and finish the quarter. Sleep still did not refresh me. I dragged myself to class. Sometimes I could not cross the...
  12. My family didn't like the idea of yet another diet change! They didn't see how fatigued or foggy I felt. I must admit the whole thing seems a bit unbelievable. After hearing 30 years of my complaints my husband turned a deaf ear to my supposed health problems. Here I was trying to follow a 100% gluten diet without support. I heard it might get...
  13. I noticed upon awaking today that my tongue, abdomen and thighs were swollen. My tongue was also dry. I dunned my gloves and mask and rewashed the dishes from last night. I just didn't feel secure that there wasn't still gluten clinging to them. I am glad that inspite of the swelled up feeling my mind seems clear still today. The family got out...
  14. My first blog never quite got in before it was gone. I worked so long and hard at it that I couldn't start over. Someday, I would like to put it in. But for now, I am jumping in here. Four months gluten free: Things are going a bit better with the family. They are cooking foods which I can't eat/smell outside. My husband is starting to notice...
  15. I was having some extreme heavy flows before gluten and grain free. Five years back it was almost every month, but with supplements it was occassional. Now, I have not had a heavy one for 6 months since going gluten free. I was thinking there is a connection.
  16. I wonder how long you have been doing this as I jumped in right here.
  17. What is the Lord doing now?

  18. You do a stool test. You collect the stool by sitting on plastic to go. Then you put it in some tubes which are provided for the test. These contain some fluids. Shake them up and send them to the lab. They can check for parasites, digestive enzymes, and blood.

      If you can't guess it this lady has a natural healthcare bend. Who wouldn't after trying ineffective drugs that gave nothing but side effects? I spent more than a decade nursing children and I couldn't take drugs while I was nursing.

      I only had 2 children, but still spent a lot of time nursing. It's the way to go. No formula to mix or heat up. We had power outages with no worries about how to feed the baby.

  21. My son recently had giarrdia. I had him on an herbal thyme product and that did not take out the parasites on its own. I can't remember how long he was on it perhaps about a month. I took him to an osteopathic doctor. I was horrified when he recommended antibiotics as I expected a natural cure. But he said it was the very safest, most, effective cure...
  22. "I'll never go back to the gluten grains, but I'm not going to be so tough on myself as to cut out everything at once. Later I'll cut down the others bit by bit" I took the another approach. I would rather cut everything first, so I don't have more bad news later! I cut all grains in hopes I could have some back. However, I found that I had withdrawl...
