Does meat have glutton? If not, I’m glutton free.
“Give us thus day our daily bread...”
It’s a pretty old prayer with worldwide application
Thus=this,
Darned autocomplete
Today's wheat is nowhere near the same as the original product. It's an INVASIVE species.
OK...what “kind” of rashes (I’ve started getting weird bumps that itch) and can’t figure out what they are....and, what is the purpose of the “clay?” As a filter?
It’s a delicious “ invasive species” that I and most folks digest just fine thanks. If you want a near version 1.1, try spelt. It’s very good too and makes a fine bread.
Interesting. I’ve read a lot of these “eliminate all grains from your diet” things - but all the way through the bible, grains and working with them were staples. Hard to understand. Anyone???
Don’t use it!!! Be in control.
The intolerance business runs the continuum from intermittent problems to 'Oh my GAWD almighty' ~ vast numbers of human beings simply don't eat any of the three (Preferring, instead to eat rice, corn, tapioca, yams and other sources of starch).
The greater part of the research over the centuries has focused on Europeans.
The Australians have narrowed it down to some very specific peptides. Might even be possible to breed the problem out of wheat ~ but I bet that'd ruin the crust on bread. A small sacrifice I say.
It's becoming a great "sympathy" lifestyle.
Took the "flour" (bread, pasta, etc) out of my diet and I now no longer suffer from acid reflux. I don't know if it was the gluten or just the wheat that I was having the reaction to; but, since I've stopped eating those things, I feel much better. I have also lost weight.
"Kosher For Passover" means NO WHEAT or BARLEY or RYE. Hence the need to invent La Choy soy sauce. Else observant Jewish people would be at a loss with their sushi during Passover. (Serious business this).
Right after PASSOVER I purchase certain otherwise very costly prepared foods at the grocery store that are marked "KOSHER FOR PASSOVER". They are all gluten free, and are usually marked way down.
Somebody wanted a BIblical reference on this ~ and there it is. HARD CORE TOO! MOSAIC!
There is a type of Clematus that likes to grow in wheat fields ~ they love it in fact ~ but they have a poison that can contaminate wheat ~ and if it's passed along to humans it will kill your liver, and I believe your kidneys.
There's an injunction in the Bible to the Hebrews (early users and developers of wheat) to BURN OVER THE STUBBLE At the end of the season.
That usually kills any Clematus starts or seeds as well and makes the wheat grown in a burned field safe for human consumption the next year.
That's another obscure Biblical reference ~ not at all on the order of the PASSOVER PROHIBITIONS ~ but still, it's in there ~ ancient wisdom earned the hard way.
The day I realized Kosher For Passover had a special meaning for the three plants I can never eat in any quantity a chill ran down my back.
You learn to avoid spending a large part of your life on the pot eventually. That wheat will punish a man.
I am in control. I’ve been eating it for over six decades. I feel fine and am in better shape rhan most 40 year-olds. My digestion is fine, my weight and BP are both great. I enjoy bread and pasta without any difficulties. I prefer whole grains to white flour but neither gives me any trouble.
It’s not just the wheat that takes someone with Celiac disease out it is anything that has gluten in it including a lot of antibiotics. My husband very nearly died as well, caused him to hemorrhage and had to have 6 units of blood. He never i intentionally went off the diet and was well for three years until Melanoma got him. If he by some chance he was exposed to gluten, he was sick for three days without fail.
After my heart surgery last year somebody told me to follow the Al Sharpton rule, which is,
“White is not right.”
It really means avoid or limit bread, pasta, potatoes, & rice. Good advice, I’ve always had success with the Atkins route.
I’m having the same problem. Itchy bumps. Nothing seems to help. Maybe I’ll try eliminating wheat for a while and see what happens.
gluten INsensitive?
Definition of INSENSITIVE
1a : not responsive or susceptible -insensitive to the demands of the public-
b : lacking feeling or tact -so insensitive as to laugh at someone in pain-
2: not physically or chemically sensitive
Would you please provide the specific Scripture that bans WHEAT BARLEY RYE from Passover?
And could you also provide more information upon the 'type of Clematus' you say contaminates wheat? I cannot find any association with the zewan or Bearded Darnel that looks like wheat until it goes to seed and it is the seed that is poisonous. Apparently from what I can find out the zewan's seed darkens as it ripens and is much lighter in weight than the wheat that turns golden. And because of the lite weight of the zewan the majority get blown out with the chaff. And what does not get blown out is then sorted by machinery due to the difference in size.
Interesting. My teenaged son is exactly the same. He has Celiacs and if he gets contaminated with gluten he is out of commission for three days.
