I don't know about the grains, but here is a site where you can order the nut thins. If you read the fine print, you find that they may contain peanuts and are made in a facility where wheat products are processed. http://www.bluediamond.com/shop/natural/nutthins.cfm wrote: Thanks, Courtenay!

I don't know if it's an addiction, but I want something sweet every day. Do you eat fruit sweetened things? Whole Foods has gluten free fruite sweetened cookies, fruit sweetened yogurts, etc. What do you think about these?

I'm not sure if you mean this to be an open-ended

question, or if it is directed towards someone

specific, but my whole belief system is that sugar is

sugar, whether it is honey, or fruit, or simple carbs.

Your best bet is to keep your sugar down to

children's sized portions, IMO.

Though I do eat things with sugar in them, I don't do

it every day, and I don't eat lots at a time. The

things I have that contain obvious sugar are kefir,

melon, oranges, whole milk ice cream and occasionally

organic chocolate.

Dear ---

I read a medical abstract a few months ago that

hypothesized that we crave what we're allergic to

eating. Isn't that odd?

Thank you Sara,

You are so generous and awesome! I was actually

surprised at the

amount of things in that aisle and I think other

grocery stores

might have more variety. And I can order quite a bit

online, if I

don't mind paying postage and handling, which I do,

but we'll see

how it goes. Right now I'm having a pepsi every other

day and

trying my best with everything else. Last night we

had to take the

car in to have the battery replaced and had no time to

do anything

but order pizza. Argh! Felt miserable ... and I do

seem to be

having sugar cravings. I guess that's possible?

In hypoglycemia, I'm thinking that, out of all these things, it would be the

innocent looking little orange (a natural food, to boot) that would cause

the blood sugar to spike, then drop like a rock, causing all kinds of

problems, especially for a hypoglycemic person. That's the one they use to

make the blood sugar in a diabetic, who is going into low blood sugar sweats

and such (certainly before coma), come up VERY rapidly. Problem is, it has

to be kept that way and very gradually brought down from there, as either

way is bad for them. I find it odd that your doctor wouldn't have anything

to say about that one, since you are hypoglycemic-only. This is all coming

from a sweets lover, mind you, who has an extreme weakness for sweets, so

not chastising, just concerned.
