Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 I've got fresh organic wheat berries on it's way to my house. The ACRES meeting starts next week and I've got 60# coming for sure. He told me he had an excellent 2004 crop and has 6000 bushels available to go. (is that enough for ya?) This wheat is not cleaned and bagged for eating yet though. He will sell it in BULK for chickens or home-cleaning or he has a cleaning/bagging service at the elevator and will have that available very soon. I'll have more details as time goes by, but you guys will get the first stuff. I'll try to get his prices today. Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 My dear Samterite friends, I have come across something that I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced. I have recently changed my diet significantly and found that my nose was pretty damn dry for a change. I have eliminated bread from my diet, which up until a couple of weeks ago has been a staple for me. On two occasions since quitting bread, I had some pasta and a small piece of cake. Soon after, my nose ran like a faucet for several hours. I'm thinking that wheat could be a trigger. Has anyone experienced something similar? If so, what other related foods have you found to be troublesome? Burke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Burke: It is a highly individual thing. It's great you found that wheat is one of your triggers. For me, it's peanuts, tomato, chilis and peppers of all kinds, all berrys, skunky beer. > > > > My dear Samterite friends, > > I have come across something that I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 I find my digestion dosn't agree with wheat, so i gae it up 3+ years ago. I use rice flour as a substitue and still eat a fair bit of bread/cakes, but with non-wheat flours. For those of you who have given up wheat, do you eat ay bread/cakes/pasta with non-wheat flour, or have you totally given up these kind of carbs?

I've been on a detox diet for 4 weeks and out of the blue (without steroids) I got my sos and taste back. I then had some bread and cake and my sos and taste have gone!> >> > > > > > My dear Samterite friends,> > > > I have come across something that I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Thank you for that article. I have been seriously considering going wheat/gluten free.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Oh, Ann I am so sorry to hear this. I am so very sorry to inform you that institutional food is uniformly unhealthy. They cut corners at every opportunity.Is there ANY way that you can talk with the management? I would think that you must be paying a premium to live there, and they should be able to serve you gluten free foods. I wonder what they would do if you had documentation of celiac's disease???!!! (a full-blown gluten allergy)?

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 I agree with Lea Ann, Ann! It may make sense economically, but the toll all that institutional food takes on your health may make you want to cut corners elsewhere. I am assuming that you have a Vitamix, so are you ABLE to prepare your own foods, space wise and such? If so, I am happy to make some recommendations to you for how to get some good organic food inexpensively, and perhaps make some changes for the better?Sent from my iPadOn Nov 4, 2011, at 6:29 PM, Lea Ann Savage <lsavage@...> wrote: Oh, Ann I am so sorry to hear this.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Thanks, Lea Ann. No no way can I change them. The battle has been fought for YEARS by others who continue to fight and they are wealthy and bring their own food -just coming for the company. New Mexico requires all senior centees to use the same menu that the state provides. Ann On Nov 4, 2011 4:29 PM, " Lea Ann Savage " <lsavage@...> wrote: Oh, Ann I am so sorry to hear this.
