    Iodide is absorbed in the stomach and duodenum and cleared by the kidney and the thyroid. https://ijpeonline.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1687-9856-2014-8 Celiac disease is an inherited autoimmune disorder that affects the digestive process of the small intestine. The small intestine is connected to the stomach; the first parts of the small...

    Though it doesn't have the religious overtones, keeping gluten and non-gluten separate is not much different than keeping milk and meat separate in a kosher household. Avoiding inadvertent cross contamination despite best intentions. A strictly kosher person will not eat in a non-kosher restaurant even if it does serve kosher food. Some families keep four...

    No, it is me. In my family I am forbidden to bring up the topic. Sorry.

    24 linear inches in my kitchen junk drawer. 😀 Geritol Multivitamin for a single pill, but I avoid folic acid, synthetic vitamin E and vitamin A because some studies link them to cancers, and I smoke. Except for vitamin D my daily intake is well below the RDA upper limit. Even with 250 mcg/day vitamin D since 2015 my blood plasma is only 80 ng/ml. Adding th...

    At 6'2" I was over 25 before I broke 155 lb. Peaked at 185, post GFD I dropped to 159 and am currently 168 although I felt better at 159.

    In one study, 95% of patients with duodenal villous atrophy were diagnosed with coeliac disease, meaning that 5% had an alternative diagnosis. In one study, SIBO affected 11% of patients with biopsy-proven, non-responsive coeliac disease. SIBO becomes more common with advancing age and is often predisposed to by an underlying abnormality affecting the small...

    Why do you want to put on weight?

    I repopulated my gut lactobacillus by making my own dill pickles. Commercial ones are usually sterilized and most have vinegar, you get the pickle taste but not the nutrition because the bacteria are inhibited by vinegar. Sterilized dead bacteria are not helpful to the gut biome in my opinion. https://www.makesauerkraut.com/fermented-pickles/ That fixed...

    Dietary Reference Intakes for Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Vitamin B12, Pantothenic Acid, Biotin, and Choline. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK114324/ For RDI of choline, one needs to eat 4 large eggs or 15 ounces beef or 10 cups of cooked broccoli every day. "Most people in the United States consume less than the AI for choline...

    10 Chili Recipes Kids Will Actually Love https://www.thekitchn.com/kid-friendly-chili-261994

    Home made chili with beans. I mix small red, chick pea and pinto so the mouth feel doesn't get boring. Soak the beans overnight to remove the lectins. Full of healthy nutrition. A five year old should get 10 - 15 grams of fiber and this mix has 15 grams fiber per 100 grams uncooked beans. The fiber helps with "pushing" so may help with the prolapse and the...

    Keep a journal of what you are eating now. Gluten free does not mean healthy. Now that you are not bloated by gluten containing foods you may be noticing problems that were previously masked by the morphine like effect gluten has on some people. Most wheat products have supplemental vitamins and minerals that may not be in your adjusted diet. Your blood work...

    I don't think it actually ever happened. "It was good, thank you". Most people are not as pathologically truthful as I am.

    In 9th grade I was 5'8" and weighed about 90 pounds. That's BMI of 13.7. Your BMI is 17.3. I am still alive at 71. You are mildly underweight. Losing weight can be scary. The world is mostly obese now and not being obese is abnormal. At 6'2" I went from 185 pounds life time high to 159 pound and then back up to my current 168. At 159 I started worrying...

    My sister-in-law had a great way of dealing with it. She would graciously accept the food gift, then drop it in an out of sight dumpster on the way home. Self-preservation and no hurt feelings and no temptation to try it.

    Apparently only Ireland and New Zealand find grassfed more profitable than adding palmitic acid.

    "Dairy products contain short, medium and long-chain SFA [Saturated Fatty Acid], which affect cardiovascular health differently. It is apparent that lauric (12:0), myristic (14:0) and palmitic (16:0) have adverse effects on LDL, which is considered an important risk factor for CVD [60]. When compared to carbohydrate consumption in humans, lauric acid, myristic...

    https://lock-s-foils.com/almond_milk_is_crap.html Can you eat plain almonds? Almond Breeze is proud to use activated almonds. How the heck do they activate an almond? Almonds are excellent for nutrition. 2 ounces has 100% RDA of real vitamin E and a bunch of others. Almond milk, not so much. Nutrition as advertising hype. See the link above. 10...

    Solgar B1-Thiamin, 500 mg. $18 for a bottle of 100 tablets. I've been on it for a week now and already feeling improvement over the 6 mg a day (500% RDA) I was getting between food and a B complex. Piping Rock is a good online source for most of the other vitamins I take, but I got this at Vitamin Shoppes locally. Started at one a day to test response and...

    In 1976 my infant son was diagnosed by biopsy with Celiac Disease shortly after early weaning. His doctor chose Nutramagen over Similac because it is hypoallergenic and has the most complete vitamins and minerals. By the way there are currently lawsuits on Similac and other milk based infant formulas as a cause of necrotizing enterocolitis. https://phelanpetty...

    Some facts I've found regarding DH. Could explain two things: why some are sensitive to iodine and some get DH. I'll find the sources again if somebody wants but there isn't much. I've never had DH but have had shingles and poison ivy. In the days of President Benjamin Harris (1888) it was found that iodine exasperates DH. For a while it was used as...

    Fair enough.

    When I had shingles I was given a prescription for a tube of Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine 2.5% Cream, USP. It worked great. BENGAY® 4% Lidocaine Cream Tropical Jasmine costs less than $10, and there are other lidocaine and prilocaine products up to 5% available without prescription. 10% requires prescription. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/drugs/...

    Your GP. For the most part prednisone is out of favor because there are newer (and more profitable) drugs available. Prednisone is used for everything from anti transplant rejection to asthma, to anti-cancer, arthritis, eye drops. My main concern was that with all these new drugs, for example the popular Methotrexate, a potential side effect is sudden death...

    I take 10,000 iu a day (250 mcg) to get the antidepressant effect of vitamin D. By the fourth day it worked wonders. That was in 2015. Even today, if I stop or reduce for any length of time, I get anxious about answering the phone and my countertops get cluttered. Previous prescription of Xanax made me twitch and spasm until the dose wore off. Four years...
