Don't worry about the " celiac " label ... a person becomes " celiac " when they get

a certain *level* of gut damage ... a classification which is WAY out of date.

(kind of like classifying diabetics by how much gangrene they have!). Most

people with gluten intolerance NEVER develop celiac, but there are a lot more

studies on celiac, since it's been researched since 1950 or so.

Thank you again. I think it's something like 50% + of people here have

damaged intestinal tracks/hyperpermeability of some kind? When I tell people

what's wrong with me they look at me all concerned and sad. I always tell

them it's so prevalent its almost normal. Gives them something to think

about. So many children now have this. I can practically look at a kid and

tell whether they are going to get asthma or not. I told my friend her 22

mos old would have asthma if she didn't improve her nutrition; she is now 3

1/2 with full blown asthma, the kid's on medication and an inhaler several

times a day. Her mother is either too stubborn or too attached to the

attention she gets from her kid being sick to change anything. She even went

to one doctor who agreed with me, and still won't make even a few changes.

It makes me so mad, I won't even talk to her now, though we've known each

other since birth. I was trying to be understanding until the mom saw me in

the store and proudly, almost bragging, told me, " Bella's got blood pouring

out of her ears. MMm hmmph, for two weeks now. " I fell into it and looked

horrified, but that was the last time.

Wow, I really spun off a bit. Anyway, yeah that shrimp was really good. I

never made shrimp before, so I figured coconut curry anything is good. I

made it up as I went along and had some broccoli steamed in a little chicken

broth which I poured the curry sauce on. Yum!

Anyway take care & thanks again
