Its Friday and what better way to spend a winter day... warm drinks and skating :)

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello readers,


Today I have a special treat for you, yes thats right, a warm, yummy treat that you can make for your hike, skating, skiing, or any outdoor activity! Keep in mind however, that this treat is for adults only! Have you ever wanted that Bailey's and coffee or some sort of yummy winter drink, but wonder if the drink contains gluten? Well this blog post if dedicated to a few recipes for those cold winter nights. I am off to skate later today and figured what better way to stay warm than to make homemade hot chocolate (and seeing how its Friday afternoon, I should probably make the drink extra special).

Most alcoholic drinks, Bailey's for example, do contain gluten as the alcohol is distilled with grain. Some companies claim that the distillation process cleans out the gluten, but I know first hand that this is not the case (Grey Goose vodka is distilled with wheat and will make you sick!!!!!!)

So lets start by listing some common alcohols that are inherently gluten free:

1. Cider (double check on the companies website, but all the ones I have had so far are great)
2. Rum, as it is made with sugar
3. Vodka (as long as its potato based). Absolut, Sky, Smirnoff are 3 that are ok to drink
4. All wine, red and white
5. Coolers..... be weary of these as they can have additives, but most are just filled with sugar and should be fine.

Another thing to be careful when thinking about making drinks is the mix itself. We all know the list of do's and don'ts for gluten free ingredients, but one main one : citric acid, if it comes from outside of North America can contain gluten (so be aware of this when choosing products from abroad!)

Now on to the fun part! I looked up a few recipes but decided on a hot chocolate recipe. I am going to give you 3 options though, one for a buttered rum drink, a cider and rum drink and finally my hot chocolate concoction.

Hot Buttered Rum

- 1 small slice of butter (to make this vegan you can add vegan butter)
- 1 tsp brown sugar (or agave syrup)
- 1/2 tsp of vanilla extra (add more or less depending on your taste)
- 2 oz dark rum
- hot water
- spices to taste (optional): cinnamon, nutmeg and/or allspice

The trick to this drink is to mix it well. Put the butter in the bottom of a large mug, add spices mix really well, add rum and boiling water! Enjoy

Spiked Rum Apple Cider

- dark rum of spiced rum (about 2 oz)
- Your favourite apple cider (non alcoholic, preferably homemade with only apples and spices)
- Spices if you want an extra kick: cinnamon and/or nutmeg
- Cinnamon stick to garnish

Warm cider on the stove in a large pot, mix in spices and pour into mugs, add 2 oz of rum to each much and garnish with cinnamon stick! Enjoy :)

Finally, here is my choice for today:

Creamy hot chocolate

- Milk, use 1% or you can substitute with almond milk or lactose free milk ( I find almond milk better than rice or hemp milk for this drink)
- cocoa powder
- sugar or agave syrup
- Frangelico (hazelnut liquor)

Warm the milk in a pot or the microwave (if you are in a rush), add cocoa powder until it is as chocolatey as you like it, then add the sugar in small increments. I like a rich tasting hot chocolate and therefore put a lot of cocoa powder and very little sugar. Add Frangelico (to taste) and garnish with chocolate shavings or whip cream if you want to make it extra special!

I really can't think of a better way to end the workweek!!

I hope you enjoy these gluten free drinks!

Until next time,

Your gluten free friend xo

Coke, Caramel Colour and Sangria (yum!)

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

So after much debate with my fellow celiac friends I decided to find out whether or not Coke did in fact contain gluten. I have good news for all of you addicted to this caffeinated drink... it is in fact gluten free! Here is what the company lists as their gluten free products:

We are able to confirm that, in the U.S. and Canada, the following products are gluten free:
Coca-Cola classiccaffeine free
Coca-Cola classic
Coca-Cola Black Cherry Vanilla
Coca-Cola C2Coca-Cola with Lime
Coca-Cola Zero
Barq's root beercaffeine free
Barq's root beerdiet Barq's root beerdiet
Barq's Red Creme Soda
Diet Coke Black Cherry
VanillaDiet CokeDiet
Coke with Limecaffeine free
Diet CokeDiet Coke Sweetened with Splenda
SpriteDiet
Sprite Zero
Cherry CokeDiet
Cherry Coke
Fresca
DASANI Lemon
Minute Maid Light Lemonade
Simply LemonadeSimply Limeade
POWERade Mountain Blastand 100% of juice products (without added ingredients) are gluten free.
Additionally, we can tell you that all of our other products meet Codex's definition of gluten-free, which is currently less than 200 ppm (parts per million) (0.02%) gluten. Codex is in the process of reviewing this standard and we are monitoring the progress closely. At this time the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not have a regulatory definition of gluten-free.U.S. product nutrition information can be found by clicking here.Should you require information on another product, please send us your question in an email.For additional assistance, you may also contact our Consumer Affairs office by calling (800) 438-2653.

I hope this helps you all! Now the reason that there is debate around cola and soft drinks is the caramel colour. For the most part, caramel colour does contain gluten and can make you sick, so before you go and pick up your favourite drink or candy, make sure that the caramel colour used is derived from corn, thus making it gluten free!!

Now I have been lagging on the recipe front, as my new found GF restaurants in Vancouver have been taking up a lot of my time! I will make sure to post a delicious recipe soon enough. For now, here is a recipe for a protein packed, low carb, yummy salad for those warm days when eating food seems to be the last thing on your mind.

Oh and I will add a great recipe for Sangria! yum!:)

Salad

Base:

-Bunch of Spinach or mixed greens (Chlorophyll found in green leafy vegetables are so good for you and have been proven to reduce bad breath, so eat up!)
-1 cup chopped tomatoes, or cherry tomatoes
-1/2 english cucumber slices
-1/2 cup broccoli florets
-1/2 red pepper
-1/4 black pitted olives


Add ins:
- 1/4 cup of artichoke hearts (artichokes are really good to calm your stomach, help with a hangover and are also really yummy!)
-1/8 cup of sunflower seeds
-1/2 can of tuna or 1/2 chicken breast diced
1/4 cup grated low fat cheese of your choice (usually I like to use goat cheese or feta)

Dressing:

-2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
-1tbsp olive oil or sesame oil (nuttier flavour)
-1 tbsp maple syrup
-1 tsp grainy Dijon mustard

Mix the dressing in a bowl. Toss greens together mix in dressing, add the "add ins" and Enjoy!!!

Sangria (it is summer after all and a pitcher of this good stuff can just about make any day perfect!)

- 1 bottle of cheaper red wine (no need to but expensive wine as you are mixing it with other juices)
- 3 cans of organic tangerine spritzer (you can find this in any organic section at the grocery market)
-1/2 container of 100% mixed tropical fruit juice (I like to use a mix of mango and papaya)
- ice cubes
-frozen fruit chunks such a peaches, mangoes and strawberries

In a large pitcher, fill 1/4 with ice, add 1/4 cup of each frozen, peaches strawberries and mangoes. Add 1/2 bottle of wine, add 2 cans of spritzer and 1/2 container of juice (adjust to suit your own taste).

** Now I am warning you ahead of time...this stuff goes down fast because it taste so good!**

Have a fabulous day!

Cheers,

Allyson

Post dedicated to Victoria Gluten Free Pizza - The Joint

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello east coasters!!


Well, I am fairly settled out here in Vancouver, and have had no problem finding my fair share of great GF food!! I could go on forever about Panne Rizo, but I want to tell you about this great place in Victoria. 

I was visiting a friend for Easter in Victoria. While I was shopping one day I stumbled upon this pizza shop called: The Joint. It is located downtown close to the touristy area/good shopping on Johnson street. Here is a link to their site: http://www.eatatthejoint.com/html/. I was not only able to call and order this pizza for delivery. I was also able to add vegan cheese and fake veggie meat to my pizza!!! Talk about choices:)

I also should mention that the Noodle Box has become one of my favourite take out places as well. It is all freshly maid Asian cuisine.... best part is that it comes in the little box like the movies (you know, the little white box!). Here is their site:http://www.thenoodlebox.net/. Just make sure to ask your server about their GF options!

Now I know this is a short post, and I have to admit I have been neglecting to update the site, but that is also because I am apartment hunting, furniture shopping, work finding and all together a bit busy. But I promise to be back soon with some great recipes and new advices/news from the GF world. To make up for not being around recently, here is a great recipe for a quick and easy crock pot dish:

1 can black beans
1 can chickpeas
1 can crushed tomatoes
bunch of carrots, diced
5 potatoes, diced
1 onion, chopped
** add any other root vegetables depending on your tastes**
1 box of vegetable soup broth, GF (this can be found at the Superstore, simply check the ingredients)

simply add all ingredients and let it cook up all day. I hear its still a little chilly out east and therefore this dish will be perfect to warm you from the inside out. I usually add a little pepper flakes and salt+pepper, to taste.

I also wanted to add a link to Amy's Organic food, because she makes some quick-cook soups that are certified GF:http://www.amys.com/products/category_view.php?prod_category=14

Looking forward to posting a new blog soon... most likely from one of the many Internet cafes here in Vancouver.


Have a fabulous Gluten Free Day!

Gluten Free Food in Saint John, NB

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hi there!

Thanks to a wonderful post from a follower named Sara I am passing along this extensive list of restaurants in the SJ area in New Brunswick!

I know I have been away for a while, what with the holidays and everything, but stay tuned for more frequent updates with recipes! I am also going to try and do a Q&A format for some of you with recurring questions about a GF diet.

Here is the list:

Locally owned restaurants in SJ with GF menus:

Opera Bistro is FANTASTIC for allergies; run by a professional chef and his wife who is a nutritionist. They even have GF desserts.

Relish Gourmet Burgers carries GF hamburger buns.

The Urban Deli has GF bread for their sandwiches, and they even have GF pastas and soups, and a few desserts.

Thandi's, the Thai Hut, Suwanna's and Lemongrass have GF Thai options.

Chains:

Boston Pizza has an allergy menu and even has GF pizza crust (I cried the day I found that out!).

Montana's is another spot with an allergy menu: lists what products and sauces you can have.

The Wok Box has a few GF items on their menu as well.

There are definitely more restaurants in SJ but the ones above are the best for accommodating food allergies.



Take care,

Your celiac friend xo

My new favourite restaurant: East is East

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good morning!

I met up with some family last night for a great dinner at an Indian restaurant called East is East. I am usually pretty weary of Indian food due to the naan bread that is used with almost every dish but this place was just fantastic. The food is prepared using natural ingredients and taste so yummy and wholesome. The best part is when you order the eastern platter, you get to pick two dishes, dahl, salad and rice and it is all refillable (the plates are bottomless!!!).

This cute little restaurant on Main and 28th, had authentic seating and music the whole time we were there, and I couldn't get over how great the waitresses were about gluten free!!! I would highly recommend anyone to this restaurant, vegetarians, and people with dairy allergies will feel right at home with the multitude of choices on their menu. They also have a location on Broadway near MacDonald!!!

So as I sit here typing this information, I feel as though I should leave you all with a simple Indian recipe to try at home, but seeing how my skills at Indian food are not very great i will simply suggest a great tasting dahl that you can get a any grocery store ( for those of you in Fredericton, I know that Aura food carries this line of products. Its the Happy Planet soups, here is the link: http://www.happyplanet.com/


Have a great day! And keep your questions coming as I would love to create a sort of relationship where I can answer all your GF questions!!

Cheers,

Ally:)

What You Need To Know About Neck Pain Russellville

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Christopher Foster


Actually, a good number of people that comprises the majority of the world population have an experience of neck pain. In fact, two thirds or more have ever felt this pain at least once in the course of life. This condition has affected different individuals in different professions, careers, ages, and occupations. The pain might occur in the neck region but the cause might arise from another body part or area. In most cases, head and spinal cord are the major contributors to this condition. This is why neck pain Russellville requires a remedy at the right time.

These conditions may arise from muscular tightness that may occur either in the neck region or upper back. It can also be caused by nerve pinching more so the ones that are located near the spinal cord and around the region. This condition can also occur due to disruption of joints either in the upper back or slightly below the head. These types of pains mainly occur in the articulating bones that hold the head. That is the three neck joints.

The head rests on three joints that are found in the upper back and lower neck. When these joints are overstretched or over-constricted, the surrounding muscles are affected and this can cause pain and ache. The condition can also be caused by vascular nerves, digestive activities, airways as well as other skeletal issues. In addition, there are other causes that are believed to cause the condition.

The ache is also believed to emanate from long periods head hunching on devices such as smartphones, computers and other devices. Teeth gritting and bed reading are other activities that contribute to the condition. In human anatomy, joints that are worn out, bone deterioration and diseases such as osteoarthritis are said to cause the problem.

Such drugs include ibuprofen and other tablets.

Cold and heat therapy can also be used to provide a remedy. The affected area is treated by placing ice packs or heating pads for a certain period mostly twenty minutes. The area then becomes relieved from the ache. Home exercises and physical therapies can also be used to provide a remedy for this condition. Such activities include gentle head and neck tilting as well as rolling.

Another method that can be used to provide a remedy for this condition is surgery. This is used to provide a remedy when the cause of pain is far much beyond physical causes. Such causes may include diseases like cancer or serious discs dislocations among other serious sicknesses. However, most physical therapies can address the condition.

almost a week and still going strong

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello!

So its almost been a full week and I am loving the raw food diet. Although I have not gone 100% raw yet, I am very close and have basically been vegan all week, with some minor slips. I also noticed that when I ate cooked food I felt really weird, either too full or just sick. I have attached a link for you, if you want to read more about the raw food diet. It can seem really complicated but a great way to transition is finding a great smoothie recipe to start and just eat lots of fruits and vegetables. I recommend more fruit because its higher calories and density, you will feel full and energized due to the natural sugars found in fruit!

link: http://www.living-foods.com/index.shtml

I am off to Salt Spring Island this weekend and apparently my friend found a GF bakery so I will report back on how amazing my weekend went! It is nice to see that there are many more options for people who want vegan, vegetarian, GF, lactose free, etc. options.

That being said, here are a few observations that I've made on my raw food adventure. Not only has travelling become a lot less stressful, I have also begun to really enjoy everything I eat, raw food tastes so much better and I really feel like I'm fueling my body instead of satisfying a craving to eat just about anything. I also don't crave things like chips and chocolate anymore, and when I do a smoothie with almond milk, cocoa and a banana do the trick!

Stay tuned for more recipes and more ranting about this really great diet. And in about 5 months, this blog is going to switch over into a "my adventures in Costa Rica blog". That's right everyone, I am taking this GF thing overseas... well not really over seas but cross borders!

Take care and enjoy being GF cause we are special! :)

food for thought: check out a book called Skinny Bitch. I'm not telling you all to get skinny and become vegan, but its worth a critical read just to see a different point of you!

Cheers,

Ally

The Gains Of Building Backyard Ponds Or Waterfalls

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Anna Wagner


There are reasons why people especially those homeowners give importance to building backyard pond or waterfall. Others also think of it as additional resources which may not be true all the time. Some also think that building it is just a show off which is not correct because basically it has reasons why one loves it.

First is of course relaxation. There is something good when you witness the crystal clear water which flows from that waterfall for instance. It will surely give you peace of mind while spending a few hours there. It could also be one of the methods to eat sustainable fish because you can have ponds with fishes good for consumption.

Another is the sound it gives. They have a calm sound and it only makes you think of paradise. This can definitely soothe your mind and would relax your spirit to be able to rest. It is essential indeed especially when you look forward to it.

Another factor that matters is recreation. Some consider it as similar to being relaxed and so on. Nevertheless, you should remember that there is a big difference between these two. When you put the structures, its main purpose is for fun of course. It could involve physical fun in which it is being attained.

One can have a good feeling when looking simply at the pond. It will definitely amaze their feelings and as human beings. Some will also enjoy all the good feelings and everything. This is definitely true when your kinds are there to play and enjoy. Their imagination will make them witness its whole beauty.

Another use is horticulture. Some have it to water the plants and perform it in a simple manner. It is also done by those who own gardens that has abundant plants. There are indeed modern ways and devices applicable and it can improve the overall look of the garden as well. People get these to deliver the function of this creation.

The system must look great and show work very well to perform its overall function. Only a few can achieve this thing of course. This fact will lead one to ask recommendations or aid from those experts about the correct methods to build the pond and waterfall. Another is having this source to guide the animals. It can truly be a good root to aid the fishes.

The motions that are caused by it could also introduce some oxygen into the bodies of water. It is a good way as well to be able to filter the water source to get rid of regular water changing. You can then put those fishes to live and get a natural look. This can bring a perfect sense of life to the waterfall or pond.

Build a backyard pond or falls in a careful manner to support the entire ecosystem. This is also essential to function as it it should be. Do not forget to remember the overall purpose of those structures. Know why it is there and consider the importance of having it built well.

What You Need To Know About HCG Allowed Food

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Angela Turner


The HCG diet is one of the most popular diets in all of the developed world. It definitely seems like a very stringent eating plan and one that people will need a tremendous amount of willpower to adhere to. The truth of the matter, however, is that there is plenty of HCG allowed food and thus, people can eat comfortably and still drop plenty of pounds. Planning, however, is indeed a vital part of these efforts. Following is some helpful information for all those who are thinking about adopting this eating plan.

Dieters are able to succeed on this regimen due to the fact that they are receiving regular injections of a special, pregnancy hormone that actually curbs their appetites and expedites their metabolic functioning. As such, they are able to eat a lot less and burn more fats and calories throughout the day. This is why there is very little willpower needed. The injections will keep you from suffering intense hunger pangs even as you drastically cut your food portions.

On some very stringent days on this diet, people are required to eat just 500 calories for a full, 24-hour period. This is a significant reduction in daily caloric intake especially when compared to the normal dietary recommendations. Even when people are on very strict diets people usually are advised to eat at least 1200 calories.

There is one obvious issue that arises from this type of restrictive dieting and this is that it can be very hard to get enough of the right nutrients when consuming such tiny portions. This is certainly the case for protein. A lot of foods that contain high amounts of protein are also high in both fats and overall calories. This means that if you use these foods to meet your daily requirements for protein, you will likely consume more calories than the diet actually allows.

This is what makes it so essential to carefully plan your meals. On days when calories are heavily restricted, it is vital to carefully choose your meals. This will make it possible to follow the restrictive calorie guidelines without actually depriving yourself of essential nutrients.

Protein is huge concern when implementing diets like this one. This is because insufficient amounts of protein can lead to a problem known as muscle wasting. When this occurs, the body will start turning to its own muscles for energy, thereby decreasing the amount of lean muscle mass that dieters possess.

To avoid this issue, you should consider the way in which strict vegans eat. They do not consume animal products of any type and they are still able to obtain sufficient protein. Moreover many of these individuals are able to do so without having to pay for and use costly supplements.

The best way to do this is by consuming generous amounts of green leafy vegetables. These types of vegetables are rich with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients. They are additionally a rich source of protein and they do not have a lot of calories and most contain zero fat. It is important to note, however, that plant-based proteins are not complete and often must be strategically paired in order to compensate for this fact.

Improve Your Overall Wellness With Back Pain Therapy From A Chiropractor Peabody MA Trusts

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By April Madrid


If you suffer from back pain, it probably colors your whole view of the world. This discomfort can limit your ability to take part in important activities and care for the people you love. You may be able to get short-term relief from prescribed or store-bought medications. Given that the underlying cause of this issue will remain, however, the pain will invariably return. Your provider can offer back pain therapies that address your discomfort right at its source and helps to facilitate healing. A longer lasting solution will boost your state of mind and help you achieve a much higher level of wellness overall.

What To Expect During Chiropractic Back Pain Care

Before making any spinal manipulations, your chiropractor gathers information regarding your medical history, gives you a physical exam and orders any necessary tests or lab work needed to determine the right care plan for you. If results show that manual adjustments would work for you.

Manual adjustments can be performed on all of the affected joints through quick, controlled force. After it is properly aligned, your spine will have a better range of motion and your nerves and joints will be able to function normally. Some people experience rapid back pain relief as well. Counseling can also be included in your back pain therapy that includes exercise and nutrition guidance for reducing or preventing back pain.

Chiropractic Wellness And Your All-Around Health

Manipulation of the spine is an effective and safe way to relieve the acute back pain that people often experience as the result of injuries or accidents. In most cases, this is pain that takes about six weeks to go away on its own. With chiropractic therapies, stiff muscles can be loosened to ameliorate soreness and promote faster healing.

Every patient requires a comprehensive and individual evaluation to know which forms of back therapy are going to work best. These plans of care can be adjusted to account for the underlying causes of this pain and various day to day life habits that can be altered to prevent additional injuries. If spinal manipulation is something that can benefit you, you will likely receive care during your very first visit. It usually takes between six and ten visits for people to get long-term results.

Making an effort to relieve your back pain can have a very profound effect on the remainder of your life, particularly given that you'll be able to rejoin your former activities.

Hello all!


I received a comment on my blog the other day from a lady who made a wonderful website. From what I can gather it will list and show all the GF restaurants in one area!!! Here is the link:www.theceliacscene.com

I apologize for not updating this more regularly, but its because I have been very busy getting everything settled for my new apartment! 

That being said, here is an interesting topic, Starbucks coffee! So I know that we all love to treat ourselves once in a while to a good cup of joe/latte/hot chocolate, but what I've noticed recently is that some places hide gluten in their syrups and drink mixes. I use starbucks as an example, but its important to always ask the server/barista if you could see the list of ingredients for their drink mix. I have noticed that many places have gluten in their hot chocolate mix.... so make sure to ask! Another helpful thing to do is check out their website. Starbucks, for example, has a contact number that you can call and find out about their products. Here is what is written on their website:

Where can I find allergen information?
For specific questions related to allergens please contact a customer care representative at 1-800-23LATTE. Due to potential cross contamination during distribution and sale, we cannot guarantee that allergens are not included in a product, even if they are not listed in the ingredient statement.


Hope this helps!

Smoothies Smoothies and more Smoothies

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello!


So as you know from my previous post I have been dealing with strep throat/a sore throat for about a week.... well let me tell you, smoothies are a girls best friend! Which is why I am going to focus this blog on smoothie recipes and talk a bit about why the store bought smoothies are in fact bad for you (to a certain extent!)

I have started making smoothies jam packed with greens and yummy healthy hemp protein powder and flax seeds. Here is one of my favourite recipes. It cures my sweet craving and is really filling so its great in the am! I also add salad greens or spinach to the smoothie.... please trust me on this one, you really can't taste the spinach (green mixes can have a bitter taste, but look for simple spinach or lettuce mixes, they are better). The greens are essentially like eating a salad but in a smoothie. You get all the benefits from green leafy veggies, but in a tasty smoothie. This particular blend is also full of soluble fibre and hemp protein!

Green Monster smoothie (the greens make it look monster-like in my opinion!)

- large handful of spinach leaves
- 1 tbsp of peanut butter or almond butter
- 1 banana
- 1 tsp to 1 tbsp of honey (pure unpasteurized honey is the best)
- 1 cup of Milk of your choice (almond, hemp, or normal milk... you can also substitute with chilled green tea to reduce calories or a juice of your choice)
- 2 scoops of hemp protein powder (can be found at any health food or drug store)

Blend well!!! and enjoy :)

** You can also substitute the peanut butter for berries instead and make a banana berry smoothie, and add flax seed**

The trick with smoothies is to mix the ingredients that you like to make a wonderful, healthy treat. You can even add some finely chopped dark chocolate, or cocoa powder to a smoothie to make it that much more divine!

Why store bought smoothies can be bad for you:

I was shopping the other day and had a sugar crash... decided I needed a boost and figured a smoothie was a healthier option than the GF cookies at the store. Turns out, upon reading the label, that the smoothie in question had loads of sugar in it, and some even had gluten!! Now I'm talking about these "fresh fruit" smoothies that you buy in convenient little plastic containers. I love these when I travel because I can add protein powder, and voila a meal replacement but word to the wise: ALWAYS read the labels to make sure they are GF, never assume that a smoothie should be gluten free. And always read the label for sugar content.... even if it is natural sugars, its important to be aware that a sugar spike is not good for your body... it will only make you crash even harder. Lastly, always look at the serving size, many of these smoothies list the nutritional information based on a serving which is usually half of what is actually in the bottle (which means if you drink it all at once you are getting twice as much as whats on the label!)

Anyway, I am off to enjoy the sunny day! The winter season is so close I can taste it and I will be purchasing a slow cooker in the next few weeks so stay tuned for yummy soup, stews and other winter recipes coming soon!

Until next time!

My lessons from Raw food!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello!

So I decided to stop eating a full raw diet and instead look into the benefits of a well balanced diet. I still do not include dairy, meats or eggs, but sometimes eat fish and chicken ( although that is only in extreme cases). I still eat loads of fruits and veggies, and see the benefits of raw food, but also believe that our bodies need a bit of cooked food as well. We nee some good complex carbohydrates, such as yummy brown rice and potatoes.

The trick is: eat when your hungry.... there is not real way to eat other than when you legitimately feel full and allow your stomach time to digest. Us Celiacs have a hard time digesting to begin with, and it helps to do a cleans from time to time to aid in this digestion process. I would suggest a cleans with a fruit and veggie base!!

As life on the west coast gets busier, I will do my best to keep this update, and feel free to offer feedback!

Have a happy GF day!

Recipe of the day:

Roasted Veggies

- yams
- potatoes
- zucchini
- carrots
- beets
- and any other root vegetables such as turnip, parsnip, eggplant, etc.

Chop all veggies into chunks and place on a cookie sheet. Drizzle with olive oil ( or sesame oil for a different taste). Sprinkle with chopped garlic and salt and pepper. You can also add some cayenne pepper to make them spicy!!

Roast for 35-40 minutes and check them half way to mix them around the pan to make sure all veggies get cooked evenly! Enjoy as a salad or side dish! Yum:)


Cheers!

Also, the selected unit should have an air conditioner. Most people will not be willing to pay for gym services that will not make them comfortable. The workouts done in the facility makes one use most of their energy and therefore will sweat a lot. Due to this, one is expected to rent a building which has this gadget that helps in cooling the room.

It is also worth noting that the charges must be affordable. The expenses to be incurred in using the facility should be low for the business to be profitable. This includes the rent, electricity and water bills. A cheaper space is recommended for an entrepreneur who is profit-oriented.

Factors To Consider When Choosing Gym Space Rental San Mateo

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Charles Rogers


Personal gym trainers prefer a rental training space as opposed to permanent building. This enables them to make this service mobile and also less costly. Renting is of economic benefit especially when the terms of payment are cost friendly. Since there are large leasing agencies for this space, knowing a good and impressive building calls for incorporation of various elements before making your decision. Before acquiring Gym Space Rental San Mateo, make sure you take into account the following factors.

The space regarding size should be prioritized when looking for such a facility. To ensure you will be able to make high revenue from the training activity, ensure you hire a space that will accommodate a high number of trainees.

Apps (as in applications) to make travelling GF a lot more fun

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good morning,


As I was playing with my new iPhone the other day I stumbled across an app for gluten free restaurants!!!! It was such an amazing find, and honestly justified the purchase of the phone! I was so pleasantly surprised that I decided I needed to share it with you. This app is called CeliacFeed for the iPhone but there are also great websites (if you don't have an iPhone, android or smartphone yet). I also found other apps but this one seems to be the best at reviewing my location and suggesting restaurants for me. I also like the fact that I can read reviews and also write reviews about products and restaurants!
If you don't have an iPhone yet, check out this site: Gluten Free Registry

The gluten free registry does have an app but I didn't find it to be as good as the website. So next time you need to head off on an adventure, make sure to check out these apps and websites to help you make the trip that much more fun! I know when I started travelling I would rely on smoothies and trail mix, but those snacks won't ever fill you quite like a yummy gluten free pasta meal! :)

I don't really eat fastfood but I was able to find a few good apps that allow you to see the allergen list to all products at fastfood restaurants. A really helpful tool, especially for travelling with kids who have allergies, here is the link, but I suggest just going on itunes and searching for it: Allergy Free Passport

I have also posted some links to my favourite restaurants throughout my blog posts, as well as linking other sites with great information on travelling with Celiac.

Moving on to something a little more exciting... The snow season has started here in Vancouver and I was lucky enough to head up to Whistler for opening day!!!! This has got me thinking about gluten free, healthy lunches that can fit in my little pack or pocket. Although I will be purchasing some lunches on the mountain it does become expensive (fyi. the Roundhouse offers gluten free stir fry, in the cafeteria, if you ask the cooks nicely!) Here are some really great and easy options:
1. Gluten free bread or wrap with peanut butter and a banana (its so cold that the banana kind of freezes to the peanut butter and stays pretty well ripe-looking and not brown.
2. Cup of soup, gluten free mixes. These can be bought at health food stores, and usually only require the use of a bowl and some hot water (this is perfect for those really cold days)
3. Vega smoothie packets.... although these aren't overly satisfying in the way of a stew or soup, they will give you all the nutrition you need. Add them to juice for an extra kick! Vega Smoothies


Good luck with your gluten free adventures and post your tips and tricks! I'm always looking for more snack ideas while out on the road (or on the hill)!


Til next time,

xo

Why You Should Consider Getting Shakes For Menopause

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Hong Sullivan


One of the most unfortunate parts of entering into menopause is experiencing hot flashes. These are moments when a woman's entire body feels as though it is overheating. Until these bouts abate, it can feel as though there is no possible way to get relief. If you have been experiencing hot flashes, however, you may be able to make this symptom abate by simply investing in Shakes For Menopause.

These products work in two different ways to help you get cool and stay that way. To start, they are a lot like hydrating yourself with a frosty beverage. They are like eating ice cream on the hottest day of summer given that they are certain to cool you off right away. These low-calorie treats are also rich with flavors that will take your mind away from the discomfort that you feel.

Beyond having the natural cooling benefits of an icy beverage, a shake can also contain a number of ingredients that are meant to promote the health and response of your adrenals. This system is naturally designed to limit the uncomfortable symptoms that ladies experience during this time of their lives. The adrenal glands produce a variety of chemicals that are quite similar to estrogen that's not being produced at such a rapid rate.

When people have extreme symptoms of menopause, it often means that their adrenal systems are fatigued or failing to respond correctly. If these glands are encouraged to again function as they should, you will have a number of helpful, estrogen-like chemicals coursing through your body. Once this happens, you will hardly feel yourself undergoing any age-related changes at all.

One of the best things about using products like these is that they can have a positive impact on more than just your tendency to experience hot flashes. They can also make symptoms like vertigo and migraines abate. This is far preferable to using hormone therapies given that there are no risks or side effects.

You will find that there are also a number of tasty options to choose from. There is a shake flavor to suit every possible palate. For instance, some companies produce a range of fruity products like strawberry, mango, banana and peach. Others have the highly preferred options of vanilla and dark chocolate.

Sipping a cool treat when you literally feel as though your body is on fire can relieve your symptoms rapidly. Not only are you going to feel a lot better physically, but you will also experience a notable change in your overall emotions. You will be a lot less hot and irritated. This means that these shakes can even have benefits for the people you surround yourself with.

Women often find themselves running for their freezers as soon as they start experiencing hot flashes. Ducking your head into these frosty appliances is hardly an efficient way to make yourself feel better. Choosing to pull out a delectable shake instead, however, will allow you to enjoy instant cooling effects of a delicious, icy treat, as well as a few noticeable and long-term improvements in your overall menopause symptoms.

My last days on the east coast...

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello!

So I am moving to Vancouver this Friday and let me tell you how excited I am to eat a snack and sandwich and a treat at Panne Rizo!! I am also extremely nervous to make the big move from my little town of Fredericton to the big city, but I'm going to pursue my master's at UBC so I figure it will all be worth it! Oh and did I mention the sushi :)

That being said, I will now be posting more "west" related stories and information, but fear not, I will try my best to maintain up to date with the current happenings on the east coast!

This post is going to be dedicated to the great places and people in my hometown as well as a little story on how to help your friends and family deal with celiac disease. Because lets be honest, celiac disease does not only affect you but everyone that surrounds you as well. Your spouse or partner will have to alter their lifestyle, your kids will have to be more careful and you will become a little walking spokesperson for celiac disease ( trust me, I have my speech nailed down when people say" wow, that sucks, how do you live/eat?)

Ok, so lets first start with a big thank you to Bob and Mary's gluten free baking at the Fredericton Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings! I'm not sure what I would do without their yummy muffins and my coffee on Saturdays! I will miss this little ritual to start my weekends. I am also very thankful to the farmers who sell great meats and sausages that are gluten free!! Yay for no MSG, preservatives and "filler" added to local, yummy food!

I am also going to thank the Blue Door because they have gone out of their way to label their menu with GF items! I also need to give Betty Lee a huge shout out because she is amazing!!!! Her Chinese food is not only gluten free, but I remember the first time I ate it, and was sure that it was full of gluten because it tasted so good! Betty Lee knows how to make great GF Chinese food!!! Finally, I thank all of the helpful servers who are so ready and willing to help me find a meal on their sometimes gluten filled menus! Who would have thought that a salad at the Snooty Fox would be good?!?!!

Ok now for the tips and tricks to help your loved ones deal with everything that comes with Celiac! Mood swings, constant discomfort and pain, the feeling that your life will never be the same again.... these are some heavy issues that you and your family will have to tackle. Now I could probably use a few postings on how to deal with these issues, but I will do my best to sum it all up. PATIENCE!! Honestly, trying to be patient is the key to making your disease tolerable in the first stages of recover (when your body is making the transition from eating gluten, to healing itself without gluten in your system). I was the worst at this stage because I would still wake up sick everyday and felt like I couldn't eat anything, not even my stale GF toast that I hated.... well, this went away after I received some naturopathic treatments and began to feel better.

The best thing to do when diagnosed with celiac disease is to sit down with your family, and read about the disease together. Simplify it a little for your children of course, but it is very important that kids understand how severe this disease really is. The main areas of concern are: when I'm not feeling well, its best to leave me alone! and food cross-contamination. The first issue, can be treated with rest and peppermint tea. I promise you that peppermint tea will be a soothing friend when your stomach feels like its the size of a balloon!

Secondly, the issue of cross-contamination will have its own blog time very soon, but simply put, it is VERY important that friends and family understand the problem with crumbs, flour and other gluten filled substances that can get into things such as jam,peanut butter, butter, spreads, etc. We, as celiacs, cannot eat even the smallest trace of gluten without making ourselves sick and therefore must make it clear to the people around us how careful we must be!

It is sometimes difficult to keep your head up when this disease seems to be making you misreable, but I promise that this blog will prove to you that living a gluten free life is easy, tolerable and even fun at times!!!! We definitely get a lot more satisfaction out of finding a GF chocolate brownie than our counterparts who can eat gluten!

Lastly, it might be fun to get the whole family in on making gluten free treats or snacks! I will leave you with a quick, easy and healthy "fish and chips" recipe:

you will need:
* Mesa sunrise flakes (cereal found at most grocery stores)
*Mixed spices of your choice, I usually use GF spice mix or just salt and pepper and chili flakes
*3-4 eggs or just egg whites, beaten
* dash of milk
*White fish, such as haddock

1. put cereal and spices in a bag and beat with a rolling pin to create crumbs.... this is great on a stressful day!

2. Rinse fish under water, dip in egg mixture and then in crumb mixture. I find it easiest to put the crumbs in a plate and roll the fish.

Thai noodle recipe!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good morning fellow celiacs! Wow have I ever been lagging in the blogging department. What with moving, starting my research and a full-time job, it seems that blogging has been put on the back burner. But fear not, I am still thinking of all of you and promise to try and post somewhat regularly, even if that means monthly.

Celiac disease is a constant battle of label reading and asking questions. Reason being: most products contain some sort of filler, which is usually gluten filled. Take Cheez Whiz for example.... it is jam packed with gluten, or Kraft peanut butter. Things that we would never think should have to contain gluten. I hope you all find this list very helpful! I know when I was first diagnosed, this was the most annoying part to my disease. I had to start reading every label and soon came to change my entire diet because I became aware of what I was putting in my mouth. It is very disturbing/enlightening to begin to understand how food affects our bodies. So happy discovering and feel free to post comments and questions regarding this difficult topic! (I feel like questions may get me to come back and post more often!).

Until next time... eat safe and enjoy you GF diet! Here is a recipe for one of my favourite thai dishes!

1 package rice noodles (thin white ones from an Asian grocer)
1 thai lime, or any lime will do
1 green pepper
1 bunch of kale (or any other leafy green vegetable)
3 baby bok choy
1 bunch of cilantro, to taste
3 cloves of garlic
1-2 tsp of fresh ginger, chopped
** you can add any other vegetables at this point**


sauce:
a few spoon fulls of "a taste of thai", sweet chili sauce (available in the asian food section of most grocery stores, this line of sauces is great and most are GF)
3-4 tsp of Braggs soy sauce (this stuff is awesome, and a must in any GF fridge!)

Directions:

Its pretty simple, soak noodles as per instructions on package, set aside. Cut all veggies, stir fry with garlic and ginger in sesame seed oil (if you only have canola or olive, that will do as well, the sesame seed oil just adds great flavour). Veggies will get a little glossy, this is when you add the sauce and stir-fry for another few minutes or until your veggies are cooked as you like them.(i like mine crunchy so I don't cook them too much longer). Add the noodles, toss and Enjoy!!

** you can add chicken, prawns, beef or tofu to this dish, just make sure to cook it up first, then follow the above steps and add the meat at the end so it soaks up the sauce!**

Cheers,

Ally:)

Yummy fruits a fun little trip and lots of raw food

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good afternoon!

So I went up to Whistler this past weekend for an unexpected little trip and usually these trips leave me feeling famished because I don't prepare for not being able to find gluten free places. What was amazing about this weekend: I didn't have to look for GF places because I was basically eating fruit!! So good:)

So Friday I had a few potato chips in the evening but all in all my day went like this:

breakfast: peanut butter and banana (this is now my staple food!)
snack: blueberries, blackberries and raspberries
lunch: salad with a veggie burger(now this is not raw, but i had one left in my fridge that had to be eaten)
snack: cucumber, peppers and broccoli
snack: raspberry freezer pop thing made with fruits
dinner: potato chips, 1 plum and carrots

Saturday went a little something like this:
breakfast: staple as usual
snack: banana and cherries
lunch; salad with tuna (seared tuna is also not raw, but remember... slow transition)
snack: cherries
dinner: i cooked a GF crust with salsa and cheese.... this was my biggest mistake all day. I figured I was hungry and needed to use the rest of the cheese in my fridge, but man did this ever make my stomach feel weird afterwards I just drank lots of water and felt so sleepy so I went to bed really early.

Anyway enough about my food, i am of to a great start today, and just ate at a raw food restaurant! Thai wraps were amazing, the place is called : Gorilla Food!!!! check it out if you are ever in Vancouver.

I hope all if you will at least try one day on a raw food diet so that you can see the small difference this diet can make! Off to make some cleansing juice and do some school work. Please keep posting your comments, they are always appreciated!

Food for thought: Next time you think your hungry, wait a few minutes and ask yourself if you are truly famished or if its just your brain looking for something stimulating. This has been my toughest challenge yet!

Lots of love and luck with your GF diets!

What You Should Know About Physical Therapist

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Debra Gray


There are many type of things to consider when that is possible. Even if you are making up with this when that is possible, but you may have to explain with what to grab to them without putting something into this if that is quite critical.

You may need to look for the right pattern before we improve what to consider. Cambridge physical therapist is surely a good concept before we ponder into that point. You can surely help you with what to hold through them. Getting some relevant parts to know what the real problem is and how we can react to that pattern in every way.

Getting new ideas are always a good way for us to ensure that what we are doing can help us in the process. We tend to improve so many aspects every single time, but as we hold through the whole thing, we can maximize what those concept we wanted to ponder into and how it will deal with the impact that is being provided on our end.

You should ensure that the way we can manipulate some few ideas is to achieve the basic notions in one part or the other. Grabbing your basic concept is something to hold into and do what are the actions we have to be doing and do what are the services we should carry on about. Things will be okay though, but that does not settle that it could work out.

Since the concepts we are trying to make give us a way to imply with that pattern, we need to peek for the situation where the actions are organized in a manner that we tend to easily understand. These parts or the ideas we can take control into is somewhat a good place to get through that part and hope that we seem changing something as well.

Some of the common notions that we have to do is to look for the current way to seek through the concept every time. These relevant part will not only provide us with good and exciting notions, but that will settle into the idea when that is possible. You may have to look into the pattern where the ideas are all organized, but that would be fine as well.

The data that we wanted to take in does not only supply us into good stuff, but that will hope that we are changing some ways to the other. Getting new and new information every day means that you have to caught up with the concept that we are trying to imply without having a lot of issues on how we can ponder into that thought as well.

Making some few mistakes are critically hard though, but it may need to hold through this without getting into that point before we even see hat are the attributes that we should be taking into. The faults you are holding into is somewhat critical as well.

Suggesting that you have a good concept is not only vital, but it is something that we have to work on when those basic ideas are well realized too. Be sure you have a concept to know what are the relevant actions to carry on.

Toothpaste and Slow Cookers... An unlikely pair but two important topics!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello!


This will be a quick post, but an important one!! Have you ever wondered if your toothpaste, shampoo and other products contain gluten? I thought I was always really careful about this, but just this morning as I was brushing my teeth I got an allergic reaction... not the normal gluten reaction (which for me is throwing up until you feed me Gravol), but a weird reaction to toothpaste, a sort of rash on my face. Now this got me thinking, how many of our products are packed full of allergens, which led me to some good websites for gluten and allergy free products. I just did a quick google search and this site, although dated came up with a list of products that had gluten in them: http://www.withoutthewheat.com/Dental_Products.html

My advice here is to contact the company that you use and see if they have gluten free products. The more "natural" the product is, is usually the better option but even those products can contain gluten. A safe bet for toothpaste is Tom's of Main: (http://www.tomsofmaine.com/home).

As for other products, is is very important to read the labels. I have come across a lot of conditioners with gluten. All of the Aveda conditioners contain some wheat protein, so be careful! Even though you aren't necessarily ingesting the whole product, you can have a reaction to small amounts getting in your eyes, mouth, or on your skin. I found this fun site with a long list of products that are gluten free: http://www.naturallydahling.com/Natural_Make-up.html

That being said, you don't need to spend a fortune on products. There are good, cheap alternatives out there for gluten free, natural products. The best thing to do is head to your local pharmacy or health food store and ask the customer service people if they know what products are gluten free. In Vancouver, Whole Foods and Choices Markets are a good start.... but we are also spoiled here and have many options for healthy alternatives to just about everything! I would suggest looking in the organic section of your supermarket as well. Most companies that make gluten free products will list it on their products. Check out my link to Green Beaver products, they are Canadian and Gluten Free!

Now on to the slow cooker part of the equation! I just bought a new slow cooker yesterday and thought I would share the easiest recipe I've ever made!!

Vegetarian Ratatouille

- 1 long eggplant (cubed)
- 1 can of tomatoes
- 4-5 carrots (diced or cubed)
- 1 onion
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 1 can of white beans

Saute onions for 3 minutes, until sort of clear. Add garlic and saute for a minute. Put mixture in slow cooker with setting for 6 hours on low. Add remaining ingredients, stir and put on the lid! Seriously its that easy!

Now go to work or do what you need to do, come back after 6 hours, cook up some brown rice or quinoa, and serve!


Its so yummy and comforting!!


Enjoy :)

Until next time,

Your celiac friend xo

Tips In Searching For Professional Personal Trainer

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Carol Howard


People like to have a healthy body and they do things to achieve this goal like eating healthy foods and doing exercises regularly. Some are aiming to improve their physical appearance and form their muscles by enrolling in the gym and use the equipment there. These devices help you focus on a certain body part that needs improvement.

You might use any equipment available if you know already how to properly do the forms and exercise related to manifest its effects. But others will require a personal trainer Ann Arbor have so hire one and let them help and teach you about the correct ways of training yourself. They can even identify which areas you must focus on when you train your body.

Look for professionals that offer this service in your area by using different media like the internet, local newspapers and yellow pages. Specify the name of your location when searching online as this filters results into showing only those operating nearby. Note down their contact details, physical address and website address for further research.

Request for several recommendations from your associates, family members and friends as they might have hired one before.

Ask the reason why that professional is recommended which is based on the service they received and experienced.

Inspect the permits and licenses allowing their service to be offered in your area legally after these were granted by the government to them. This means that all required documents were submitted and all regulations, standards, codes and rules were followed.

Visit websites displaying ratings and reviews of these professionals provided by their clients before who are using these sites too.

PEMF Treatment For Horses & 4 Things To Know About Nutrition

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Robin Setser


In order to take care of a horse, you must know what it is that they should eat. On the flipside, it's of the utmost importance to know what isn't good for them. These are just a few aspects of equine nutrition to be mindful of. For new horse owners, there are ways to get them the nutrients that they require from day to day. Here are 4 tips that will cover what you need to know, PEMF therapy for horses included.

To start off, water should be a focal point for pet owners. For those that don't know - and authorities on pain management like Assisi Animal Health will agree - a horse can consume up to 10 gallons of water per day. What this means is that a healthy water source should always be present. Equine health is made up of many moving parts, but it can be argued that water holds the utmost importance in the matter.

Protein is another nutrient that every horse should have in their diet. It's needed to help build the body and maintain its form, which speaks to its importance in terms of equine nutrition. Without the right amino acids, the body can develop soreness and aches, among other physical problems. This might be where PEMF treatment for horses comes into the fold, but make sure that you contact your veterinarian about it ahead of time.

Vitamins are another talking point that plays into the topic of equine health. First and foremost, it's important to note that vitamin C implementation won't be necessary on your end, seeing as how horses naturally produce it on their own. However, vitamins like A and E must be gained from external sources. Hay is the most effective, as far as said nutrients are concerned, so make it a point to incorporate this substance so that it becomes an essential aspect of the diet.

Now that you have a general understanding of nutrition, you might wonder if you can give your horse a treat, much like a dog or a cat. Fortunately, there are many foods that are not only regarded as treats but completely safe for equine to consume. Fruit like apples and bananas, while not necessary, are good ideas if you'd like to give your horse something good to eat. Sugar cubes, while able to be given, should be used in moderation due to their high sugar content.

Benefits Of Adapted Yoga To The Mind

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Catherine Meyer


Keep in mind how well profound breathing activity can help you. Profound breathing can transform pressure into unwinding. Taking couple of minutes day by day to inhale legitimately can do you a considerable measure of good. Adapted yoga helps you understand how to live as a person of relaxed body.

Simply take a full breath through your nose and gradually let out a murmur through your pressed together lips.

Raw Milk Production Safety from Organic Pastures

A little off topic, but still exciting stuff: e marketing for nonprofits!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good afternoon my fellow Celiacs,

I have decided (thanks to an e-marketing course) to divert slightly today and give you some tools for social media and nonprofits. I know that some of you either work with nonprofits or own small businesses with very little money to advertise your brand, so I feel as though this blog post may be helpful to you! Even though the main reason for the post is to satisfy my course requirements, I have found in doing the research that it is actually quite interesting stuff.

And don’t worry… for all of you who check this for recipes, I will make sure to give you a new recipe very soon. I have been home dealing with strep throat and/or mono for a few days so my recipes haven’t been all that exciting…. Unless you think oatmeal and soup are exciting!? Either way, stay tuned… a yummy treat will greet your inbox in the next few days.

Now on to the academic slide deck review: (please keep reading!)

FYI… a slide deck is exactly that, a deck of slides that are now available to you online. This one is from a presentation done in 2008 by a consulting organization called Idealware.

I came across this “Communication on a Shoestring” article the other day while searching for information on online marketing for nonprofits. (I guess you could say this is a new “passion” of mine.) Although it is a few years old (published in 2008) I wanted to browse through it and comment on its content as well as compare it to the resources and tools that are available now, as we near 2011.

The slide deck and presentation were put together by Idealware (http://www.idealware.org/) An organization that helps nonprofits with their IT needs. I was interested in this particular slide deck because it claimed to be able to give tips on how to use social media and other tools on a tight budget.

One of the largest issues faced by nonprofits is the lack of funds available, followed by a close second: lack of time and manpower. Larger corporations have IT departments and marketing departments, but many nonprofits don’t have those resources. They have the passion but not the expertise to help move their cause forward to the masses.

Communication on a shoestring is an informative document that gives nonprofits some helpful links and tools to get started in the world of e marketing. They focus on tools for email, outreach and websites; three very important tools for nonprofits to get their message to the masses. The slide deck shares tips and tricks on how to create informative and captivating websites; how to use email to create awareness for your campaign and finally how to reach a wide audience by using social media.

I personally like how the slide deck also helps an organization decide how to prioritize what to do with a minimal budget and also gives examples of alternatives to websites, such as a blog or facebook page for organizations lacking in expertise and money. There is also a list of website links with a breakdown of what the host can provide… this helps remove the guess work for organizations who don’t quite understand the inner workings of servers, hosts, etc…. I thought it was helpful seeing how I am a person who doesn’t quite understand all the tools available to me on the Internet.

The information about emailing is also fairly helpful and provides nonprofits with a semi step-by-step guide on how to create an effective awareness email campaign. There is nothing worse than getting tons of spam from an organization you have never heard of!!!

Searching through this slide deck and making notes of the websites listed “way back” in 2008 made me curious to see what was available to a nonprofit nowadays. Lets say you are a new nonprofit with a few employees and no money to spend on advertising…. What do you do?! I’ve decided to put together a list below outlining my opinion about new tools and resources available to the organization with a shoestring budget. Although the slide deck that I reviewed was helpful, it is also dated (I find it surprising that 2 years is considered dated information), so here is some new information to get your organization moving.

Socialize your Cause: http://www.socializeyourcause.org/

Such a cool site with many resources for nonprofits in the area of social media!! It was created by IT and marketing people who wanted to help nonprofits. You can submit your cause for it to be showcased on their site or use their consulting service to help your organization understand how to use social media. It is an up-to-date site with links, tools and resources. One I would recommend checking out!

Nonprofit technology Network: http://www.nten.org/about

A network for nonprofits… there are some good resources on this site, but it’s also pretty cool that there is now a network for technology and nonprofits.

Nonprofit Marketing Guide: http://www.nonprofitmarketingguide.com/resources/articles/

This site is essentially a blog, but offers many links to other articles and tips for nonprofits, such as fundraising, media relations, etc. Scroll through the list provided by this link and see for yourself!!

Finally… I don’t want to bombard you with too much information seeing how this is already too much about nonprofits and you’re probably thinking… come on where is my recipe or gluten free tip already!!!! But I did need to showcase this fun tool that YouTube offers to nonprofits:

http://www.youtube.com/nonprofits?info_lang=ca

YouTube allows nonprofits to apply to become partners and share in some of the revenue that YouTube makes off of videos. This tool may only work for larger nonprofits with ad-worthy campaigns, but I still think it’s a pretty cool resources. And I like to see companies like YouTube helping with nonprofit causes!

Well that is all folks! I hope you found this post to be helpful and maybe informative for your next dinner conversation or something you can take back to your office or boardroom and discuss with your team! Either way, it was fun doing the research and I hope many nonprofits start using these tools to create more awareness about their cause!

Recipes to come… but until then, check out this company in Vancouver, Gluten Free Epicurean…. I love her J The treats are so yummy, and she makes Nanaimo bars, and many other non-healthy, delicious goods! http://www.glutenfreeepicurean.ca/

Lots of love,

Your gluten free friend xo

Day 1 - amazingly full but a little headache

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good morning Celiacs!

Well yesterday was my first day on a semi Raw food diet. I am trying to transition and therefore still ate potatoes and whole grain pasta. Here is what my diet consisted of:

Breakfast: 1 banana with spoonful peanut butter
snack: 1 plum, handful of cherries
lunch: potato salad with peppers and Dijon mustard
snack: apple and raw vegan cookie
dinner: lentil soup and pasta salad
snack: raw smoothie and blueberries

All in all I was amazed at how full I felt all day. Not only did the banana in the morning fill me, but I also felt "skinny" all day. When I say skinny, what I mean is the normal feeling of being bloated or just eating too much wasn't there. I also enjoyed not drinking coffee and just having some chai roobois tea!

I'm not sure if it was the diet or my fan, but last night was also the first night I had a good sleep all week (it has been quite hot here in Vancouver!)

All that being said, I did feel a headache coming on later in the afternoon, but when I got home had some water and a raw smoothie and was good to go!

All in all this is looking to be a good diet.

Today I started my day with a half of banana and lots of blueberries. Keep checking in to see how this diet goes for day 2!

Have a good one!

Ally :)

Learn More About The Benefits Of Using Shakes For Hot Flashes

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Eric Yarbrough


Menopause is something that all women have to go through. Unfortunately, there are a number of symptoms that are associated with this process that are nothing short of unbearable. The good news is that there are things that can be done to keep yourself in comfort and good health even as your reproductive abilities wind to and end. Following are several reasons why you should invest in soy products for hot flashes to help you during this challenging time.

You should know that your body has many built-in solutions for minimizing the effects of having your natural estrogen production decrease. For instance, your adrenal system is designed to help you in this area. It can release chemicals that are quite a bit like estrogen whenever your body needs them.

People who smoke, drink tons of coffee, are overweight, and have lots of mental and emotional stress, however, often have under-performing adrenal glands when it comes to controlling or alleviating menopause symptoms. This is sometimes called adrenal fatigue. If this is a condition that you happen to suffer from, you probably suffer from extreme menopause symptoms as well.

Some of the best shake recipes are designed to support and improve overall adrenal health. The provide nutrients that foster the production of estrogen-like hormones. They also alleviate internal stress so that your body can again function like it should.

Even if you are not experiencing problems with your adrenal system, you might need some assistance in minimizing the duration, frequency and intensity of things like hot flashes, vaginal dryness and joint pain. By making good dietary decisions, you may be able to make some of these conditions abate.

Ladies have a variety of foods that they're supposed to eat when they reach their menopause years. These supply important nutrients for supporting the health of the adrenals and their overall health. For even more benefits that can be gained from good nutrition, women also have the option of taking supplements or using supplementary products to load up on additional vitamins and minerals that will promote improved, overall functioning.

With a shake, you can easily load up on all of the nutrients that support good health. Drinks like these are also absolutely delicious. You can find these products in an enticing array of popular flavors. You might find vanilla bean, strawberry, banana, chocolate or even mango flavors. No matter which tastes you prefer, you're sure to find the perfect options for keeping your mouth happy.

You should also consider the inherent cooling benefits of drinking something so frosty and cold. As your drink these concoctions down, you will experience a cooling effect that travels from the inside out. This is much better than trying to poke your head into the freezer and simply ride your hot flash out. You can take out your favorite shake during times of rapid overheating to start cooling down fast. This will make you feel a lot better physically, and it will also balance out your moods so that you wind up feeling far less distressed and emotionally flustered.

wow emotions...

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

So I don't post in 2 months and now you get two posts in 1 day! Just a forewarning for anyone trying this diet: you will, within 3 days or so realize how much we associate our emotions with food. When we're happy we celebrate with food, sad we console ourselves with ice cream, bored? we usually find an excuse to snack on something or even lacking excitement, we begin to crazy comforting or tasty foods. I cannot get over how up and down I have been feeling today... although it is kind of cool to notice that I have been eating food, and I'm not hungry but feel as though I should eat. This is a very interesting experiment so far, not only physically but emotionally as well.

I will keep posting and let you know how this shift in mindset works over the weekend.

Cheers!

Cooked food = Pain!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good afternoon!

As I write this little blog it is pouring rain here in Vancouver and I want nothing more than to eat some warm soup.... but I now know that this would be too much! Here is why:

This past weekend I went to Salt Spring Island (which every Celiac should go because of the baker at the Saturday morning market.... AMAZING gluten free food!). That being said, I ate some bread and some meat.... boy was that a bad idea. I think it was probably the meat that did me in, but my stomach was definitely not ready for the pain, bloating, and overall discomfort. My body was used to easy to digest fruits and veggies, with some raw crackers from time to time maybe, this was way too much and I have not felt that bad in a while. It was mainly due to my stomach feeling stuffed.... like I had a small child (in the form of starchy carbs and meat) in my stomach.

Needless to say I am very happy to be back on my simple fruits this morning! Berries, banana and salad with some humus on the side!! I will keep you all updated as things move along this week! and I will also post a great recipe later this week.... lets just say it involves the most filling of raw veggie wraps!

As I was doiny some research I stumbled accross a website which listed numourous health benefits to a raw food diet, here area few:

Increased energy
Improved skin appearance
Better digestion
Weight loss
Reduced risk of heart disease


Most people with Celiac have a tough time with digestion, duw in part because of years of stressing our intestines and also because of lack of fiber. For everywhere that you have gone undiagnosed or ate gluten, your body began to form scar tissue. Now this is not common in everyone who has Celiac, but I for one know that my body is still healing from years of scar tissue build-up. Sometimes when I eat too much food, or a certain kind of food I can feel my stomach pulling or tugging and it is very painful. My doctors have basically told me that it is scar tissue build up from being sick for so many years.

That being said, a raw food diet can greatly increase your flow of food (if you know what I mean). Because you are not only eating clean, easily digestible food, but you are also eating fiber packed food!! Which is great for people with Celiac who seldom meet their daily 30g requirement!

So go ahead try to incorporate more fruits and vegetables in your diet instead of that extra potato or chocolate dessert. See how it makes you feel!!

Food for thought: Next time your walking through the woods and think wow this is nice... stop, take a deep breath and smell the clean air! This will not only calm you down, but will also clean out stale air and make you feel better! :)

Cheers,

Ally

My test at a Raw Food diet

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello fellow Celiacs,

Well I hope you are still checking this from time to time and I do apologize for not being on here more often.... moving to a new city really does take an awful lot of time away from your daily tasks. SO far Vancouver has been amazing!!!! and I suggest you all come out to visit me someday.

That being said, I have been feeling a little ill lately and will be attempting a RAW food diet. I not only want to see if this diet will make me feel better, less stressed etc. but I also want to educate you all on my experience and what I think this RAW diet has to offer people who already have a very sensitive stomach. So hopefully you will all find this adventure exciting, stay tuned for RAW recipes, advices and my rants on how this diet makes me feel!!

I will leave you with a little energy bar that I tried last winter, it was great!

1. handful of dates mixed with water on a boiler... basically you want to "melt" them a little to make a paste (kind of like date squares)

2. add a cup of GF oats, some crushed nuts (almonds work very well), hemp seeds, coconut and flax seeds

3. I also like to add quinoa flakes, because it adds more fiber and protein.

4. Mix well and let cool a little.... then form into balls and refrigerate.

Because this was my own creation I tend to change it every time so feel free to mix and match what you like because cooking is all about fun in the end! Try adding cinnamon, or raisins... anything that strikes you as yummy and nutritious!!

Looking forward to hearing your comments. And I am going to try and figure out how to make this blog a news feed so any comments or help would be great!

Take care:)

Get To Know More About Tendonitis Doctor

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Eric Murphy


Generally, tendons are usually flexible, tough, and fibrous tissues connecting the muscles to the bones. When the tendons become irritated, inflamed or get microscopic tears, the condition is called tendonitis or tendinitis. Basically, tendons could be small like tiny bands found in the hands or the heavy ropelike cords in the calf or the thigh muscles. However, if a problem affecting the tendons arises, it is important to visit a Tendonitis Doctor.

Usually, the cause of tendonitis is not known in most cases. However, when the cause is identifiable, it usually due to one of the two known reasons. The two known causes are the overload and overuse. Overuse arises if a particular motion is repeated often. Overload, on the other hand, a certain activity like weightlifting is increased quickly.

Rarely, this condition arises as a result of infections like gonorrhea. Additionally, you will find the disease majorly in the elbow, wrist, heel, shoulders, and the knee. However, the problem may arise in any part of your body where tendons are available. The condition, on the other hand, is famous also in people with diabetes but the causes for that are not known. Typically, tendinitis is an inflammation or irritation of the tendons. The problem arises as a result of many activities like raking, carpentry, gardening, scrubbing among other things which you perform regularly.

However, you will find particular risk factors that raise the tendinitis risk. Incorrect posture when working is one of such risk factor as well as inadequate stretching. Also, you can increase the risk of the condition when you play sports. Furthermore, abnormally or poorly placed bone or joint which leads to straining of the soft tissues can increase the tendinitis risk. Other risk factors including stresses arise from other conditions such as thyroid disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, unusual reaction to the medications as well as psoriatic arthritis.

Other conditions such as gout, psoriatic arthritis, thyroid disorder, rheumatoid arthritis and abnormal medication reactions among other factors have a contributing effect. The condition can occur to anybody. However, it affects those around the age of forty. The main reason as to why this occurs is due to aging. The ability of tendons to tolerate stress reduces as one grows older. They also tear easily as well as becoming less elastic.

These conditions can occur on any part that is surrounded by tendons but Achilles, elbow, knee, thumb base and hip areas are the most affected. There are certain symptoms that appear when you are suffering from this condition. One of the symptoms is the gradual pain buildup which at times become severe more so if calcium deposits occur.

Frozen shoulder is another symptom used to indicate the presence of this condition. On the other hand, one can avoid the condition for occurring to him. First, physical activities should be done in a gradual manner. That is start slowly and then make gradual speed progress. It is also important to avoid repetitive activities.

Doctors treat this condition with an aim of reducing the inflammation and relieving pain. A doctor may, however, recommend resting the joints, cold and hot treatment, splinting affected joints or taking pain relievers. However, surgery may be used but often rarely. Surgery is usually reserved if the condition does not respond to other treatment options.

GF wraps and Oprah on GF diets!!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hello all!!!


So I am officially a full time masters student now and have very little time for this blog, which is rather unfortunate!! anywho, I have decided to go soy free, dairy free and gluten free, as all my other diets seemed more like fads! The raw diet was awesome in the summer or as a cleanse, and I would suggest anyone to try it out, or just incorporate more fruits and veggies in your diet! I can guarantee that you will see a difference!!

Here is a link that was sent to me about gluten free diets! Enjoy: http://www.oprah.com/article/health/nutrition/20090922-orig-daphne-oz-gluten-free

Have a wonderful GF day!! Check out this awesome GF wrap with peanut sauce. So easy and soooo good!!

Supplies:
- carrots
- sprouts
-cucumbers
-peppers
-tofu (optional)
-basil
-crushed nuts
- rice wraps... these look like big pizza crusts but are made of rice and found in your Asian grocery stores or section (they are also super cheap)

- you can also add some thai hot peppers for a little kick

Sauce:
-peanut butter
-soy sauce
- honey
- rice wine vinegar

Ok, so this is what you do:

Boil water, put it in shallow dish and submerge one rice sheet for 30 seconds (be careful because the water is hot and as soon as the rice hits the water it will sort of "melt"). Remove and put on cutting board, add small slices of all your veggies, basil and nuts, roll up (roll sides, then roll).

For the sauce: mix ingredient together to taste.... usually a tablespoon of peanut butter and a teaspoon of everything else!

Enjoy!! :)

These also keep well in the fridge and travel well for a snack at work!!

Take care!

Follow me on Twitter and Facebook

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Hi all!


So its become clear that i no longer update this site enough and therefore recommend that you all follow me on Facebook and Twitter. That way we can even have conversations about Celiac disease, gluten intolerance, etc.

I have recently been going to the doctor for abnormal stomach pain and plan to do an allergy/detox test really soon and would love to tweet about it and hope you can follow along. I will have recipes, thoughts and most likely a few rants about missing certain foods (cheese mostly).

I will also try and start up a more "social page" of some sort. Meaning that you will be able to speak to me directly with questions or concerns or better yet ask me about my restaurant and/or grocery store recommendations (probably my favourite part about this whole blog thing).


Take care and hope to be seeing you soon on my other forms of social media :)

Keep Yourself Fit With Wheelchair Exercises

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Anthony Meyer


As compared to a normal person, a person who is in a wheelchair has limited amount of mobility. Still, there is nothing that could stop them to be active and fit provided they want to do some useful wheelchair exercises. You could either do these exercises in a group with others or just on your own.

From cardio to weightlifting and aerobics, there are so many different forms of exercises that you can do whilst sitting on your chair.You just have to get into a good routine so that you exercise on a regular basis because otherwise you will end up feeling miserable about yourself all the time. You will definitely gain a lot of useful things only if you change your routine.

One of the biggest gains is that you feel more active as compared to before which alleviates your mood swings and you do not feel depressed any longer. Your joint muscles are strengthened to a great extent which is a good sign as it increases your endurance as well. You become more rigid and strong which gives you a lot of confidence.

You can consume a decent measure of calories while taking a seat in a seat. Its about picking the correct kind of normal and afterward begin taking a shot at it so you end up noticeably impeccable and increase enough certainty to overlook your handicap that has constantly prevented you from thinking ambitiously.

Always start off with shorter sessions and then gradually increase the time in order to be able to build your stamina. Once you reach your optimum level then all you have to do is to keep up with it and do it regularly because any gaps in between means you will have to start all over again. Warm up your body before every single session so that fatigue and tiredness do not take over your body afterwards.

For those who are more into weightlifting, they can start off with free weights and other weight machines. It is up to you whether you go to a gym or prefer doing your workout within the comfort of your home. There are gyms that specifically specialize in training people with disabilities. Therefore, even if you are in a wheelchair, it won't stop you from exercising at all.

Aerobics is also regarded as a very good from of workout for physically disabled individuals. You will enjoy every bit of aerobics as the movements are very simple and easy to understand there is no complication at all. A usual aerobic sessions lasts for about half an hour which is more than enough to burn good amount of calories.

You could also gain some motivation whilst watching videos in which people do exercises even if they are in a sitting position. Its all about how motivated you feel and how willing you are to bring about such changes in your daily routine. If an individual is not willing enough then no one can help him or motivate him to do something that he does not even want to do. Therefore, your self belief and confidence in yourself are the biggest motivations.

This study spans forty years of research and also stresses that no single approach to farming will safely feed the […]

A Very Merry Gluten Free holiday season

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

So its that time of year again and we all know that many of our favourite treats can become our worst nightmare if care hasn't been taken to make sure they are gluten free. Everything from the turkey to the cheese and crackers tray must be made gluten free.... if you think like I do most of the time, this task would seem a tedious one, not to mention a burden on the party host. Picture yourself asking to feed yourself first in order to not risk cross contamination, or even worse ask that no one eat gluten around you.


This blog is going to be dedicated to my gluten free Christmas tips and tricks. Many years ago, when I was first diagnosed, I could always trust that my mother would bring along my favourite gluten free dish to any family or friend gathering (this would ensure that I was a happy kid as well as didn't get sick). The easiest way to control what goes into your mouth is to make sure you made it! This may seem like a simple trick but it does help, especially if you are able to help make a few things beforehand with the host. This way the topic of gluten free will almost always come up in conversation and you will be able to make sure that other dishes can be made gluten free as well. People really are quite happy to make gluten free treats, as long as they are tasty and require next to no extra effort.

Secondly, the turkey.... well not if you're vegetarian but then you know you can eat lots of potatoes and yummy sides. Here is an IMPORTANT fact: Turkey with stuffing that isn't gluten free, will most definitely make you sick. Please make sure you either make your own turkey or protein, or ask the host not to stuff their turkey. Gravy is also an important one because most people use flour to thicken the sauce, but luckily there are great alternatives for thickeners: guar gum, cornstarch, rice flour, or xanthan gum. Here is a quick gluten free gravy thickener recipe:

1 tbsp or xanthan gum (or alternative as listed above)
a bit of water

Mix both ingredients together to form a milky liquid. Add gradually to meat drippings that have been boiling in a pan. Its basically the same technique as regular gravy but using gluten free ingredients.

Lastly, the desserts, cookies, candies and other wonderful treats. I'm not going to lie and say that everything can be made gluten free and taste the same as those cookies your grandma has been making for a century. BUT, I will say this... over the years, my family has been experimenting with many gluten free options and for the most part we have been able to recreate some family favourites such as meat pie, sugar cookies, homemade bread.... you name it, we have probably tried to make it. Nowadays we are pretty lucky living this gluten free life. I am going to list a few links for companies who make great gluten free mixes that will aid you this Christmas season:

1. Sugar cookies (that people without celiac gobbled up and didn't know were gluten free. These are also very easy to make with the kids. I would suggest adding a bit more water than the package says, but only a few drops more)
link: http://www.bobsredmill.com/gf-shortbread-cookie-mix.html

** Most of Bob Redmill's products are really fantastic alternatives for you. They have cake mix, bread mix, and even oats, and are sold at most grocery stores**

2. Gluten free bread crumbs and pretty much anything you could possibly need gluten free in Vancouver: http://www.choicesmarket.com/pdfs/RiceBakeryBrochure2009-1.pdf

**This is the brochure for the choices rice bakery. They not only have mixes but also make lots of breads, cakes and other treats. Give them a call for all your gluten free needs**

3. Seeing how I am spending Christmas back on the east coast, I will also add a few links to places on the east coast. Two come to mind, Rosie's Gluten Free Gourmet, which you can get at most grocery stores but the Scoop and Save in Fredericton carries a large quantity of her products and will also make special orders for you. Here is her information:

Rosie's Gluten Free Gourmet
620 Coverdale Road
Riverview, NB
E1B 3K6
Tel: 506-855-5988

There is also a couple at the Saturday morning market in Fredericton that sell gluten free treats. The market is probably my favourite place because I can also get free range organic meats, cheese, fish and of course fresh squeezed orange juice.

Well that's all for today. I love your feedback and welcome any other suggestions you might have for a very happy holiday season with no visits to the hospital :)


Until next time,

Your gluten free friend xo

Ocean Conservation Concerns Everybody, Not Just Scientists And Marine Biologists

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Peter Stevens


Amazingly enough there are still plenty of climate change deniers out there. They act as though the earth has an unlimited capacity for abuse and neglect. Most reasonable people, who understand that icecaps are melting and sea temperatures are rising, know we have a problem. Even many of the naysayers appreciate that if the oceans are compromised, the human race will be in peril. Ocean conservation is in everyone's best interest.

If you are concerned about the environment and the impact you are making on it, there are steps you can take, and teach your children to take, to minimize your carbon footprint. Every time you decide to walk or bike to get where you need to go, instead of using a gasoline fed car, you are making a difference. Reducing your use of electricity by turning off lights you don't need and turning the thermostat up or down is one small step in the right direction.

Plastic is such a part of our lives that we don't think about using something else that would work just as well. We now have actual islands in the Pacific and Atlantic consisting of nothing but trash. The convergence of currents and wind has drawn our refuse to areas of the Sargasso Sea and what is known as the Pacific Garbage Patch. Instead of plastic, try using cloth shopping totes, and recycle everything you can.

Beaches are national treasures for every country lucky enough to have them. Many visitors however are careless about how they treat these beautiful stretches of land and water. You can teach your children to leave the beaches the way they found them, to refrain from pulling coral and rocks off the ocean floor, and to become active in community beach cleanup days.

A lot of people love to eat seafood and believe fish is a healthy alternative to red meat. When you order rare and exotic species in restaurants and seafood markets, you are participating in the further destruction of a fragile ecosystem. Refusing to purchase items like shark teeth, tortoiseshell combs, and coral necklaces sends a message to shop owners that it is unacceptable to exploit marine populations.

If you have pets, you need to read the food labels and buy only sustainable seafood products. Flushing litter is bad for your plumbing, no matter what the label says, and even worse for water sources. Litter contains pathogens that harm marine life. If you have an aquarium, you should never purchase wild saltwater fish for it and never dump the contents of a fish tank into open water.

One way to make your conservation concerns heard is by contacting your government representatives when bills are coming up. You can keep up with how they vote on crucial matters and teach you children to follow Congress as well. Your children will notice when you support only representatives who are serious about protecting the environment.

We may not be able to destroy the earth, but we can destroy our ability to inhabit it. Plenty of damage has already been done. It is up to each individual to prevent further harm.

If they have previously sought such services or know of someone who was in similar and got treatment, they will help you.

In addition, he ought to have handled serious injuries than the one you may be currently facing. Therefore, put a limit of five years and above experience for your choice.

Have a budget for the procedure. Before settling on any sports medical expert, you need to do some research and know how much you will have to part with to fully recover. Thereafter, draft a flexible budget and present it before the specialists recommended to you. You will definitely get one who is passionate, humane and ready to help you.

Due diligence procedure is needed. Many sports medics, have been involved in numerous professional negligence cases after aggravating athletes injuries and you would not want to be part of such ugly statistics. Therefore, check if your pick of a medic has previously had his practicing certificate suspended or expelled from practicing and offering therapy services to injured athletes.

Arrange a consultative meeting. It would not be a good gesture to meet your potential medic on the operation day.

Discover The Many Health Benefits Of Joining Crossfit

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Pamela Morris


This new fitness program was developed by two practitioners and experts that have been within the industry for as long as they can remember. These two people are Lauren Jenai and Greg Glassman, who created the foundations of this practice in 2000 and has it trademarked under their names. The basic rule of their program is participating in workouts with the goal of fitness in mind and as a philosophical practice too.

While the practice first stemmed in California and Santa Cruz within the United States, thousands of practitioners have now gotten into the habit all over the world. Its practitioners believe that by constantly practicing this sport and implementing it as a way of life, they can make significant changes in their life, not just with regard to keeping fit. For more information on this topic, continue reading the subsequent paragraphs to discover the many health benefits of joining Crossfit Ann Arbor.

Like other similar methods of exercise, this is makes use of high intensity routines, which are both face pace and encompasses the use of all body parts. These routines can last for a period of fifteen minutes or less than that and all the minutes are put to good use. Everything is properly executed and organized and all the jogs, burpees, squats are condensed into three routines to four. Following this logic, everything is concentrated and repeated multiple times. By doing it, it burns a lot of calories and refrains the body from being stagnant.

The way this routine is established is by designing it in a way that participants are constantly keeping up their motivation. Breaks are only permitted after the completion of cycles and in a limited amount of time only. Furthermore, each cycle is tailor made for each person, which is designed in a way to help them improve upon problem areas. This keeps them motivated all throughout the routine.

Furthermore, the routines only take about fifteen to twenty minutes to accomplish and participating members are allowed to decide how many rounds they wish to go on certain circuits per session. This means that one can shorten the length of it all, but add more intensity and effort into it as well. By doing this, it does not affect its effectiveness, despite cutting down on the time it takes. This makes it the ideal work out for folks who are constantly busy and do not have enough time on their shoulders.

Most likely to a fitness center and obtaining a subscription there implies having the ability to satisfy various other males and ladies that share the exact same perfects and have comparable objectives also. By doing so, it permits an individual to develop a solid structure for creating brand-new relationships, which could shift beyond the facility. Not just that, it enables the opportunity to bond, share brand-new accomplishments, and in creating a great support group in between each participant also.

People who have a weak heart are encouraged to join this sport because it helps in improving its condition and performance. High intensity exercises are often target the cardio vascular system, which means that the heart is constantly pumping blood and circulating it along with oxygen into the lungs and other body parts too. Through constant exercise, it helps make it stronger and perform better too.

A common aspect when joining gyms is being trained in groups or not having enough assistance when necessary. What sets this apart is having a professional come and personally coach you. This includes integrating modifications to your work out according to what suits you and your goals, pushing the boundaries of your limitations, and in encouraging you to try harder. As such, this person becomes more than your coach, he or she is your counselor, friend, and nutrition advisor too.

Not only has that, joining a gym that specializes in this means taking your first few stepped in having a healthier lifestyle. By surrounding yourself with people who are equally invested in having a healthy lifestyle and fitness, it helps you develop better habits and coping mechanism. This type of environment will definitely have a positive mental effect on you too.

Managing Problems With Redondo Beach Personal Training

by noreply@blogger.com (Simo Karti) @ muscle building

By Brian Harris


Everyone realizes that they need exercise. This is something that keeps you fit. It has a positive effect on you, mentally. When people are depressed or anxious, psychologists usually suggest that their patients go to the gym. However, it is not always easy to motivate yourself. This is why Redondo Beach personal training has become more popular as it helps you to get going.

First of all, you can rely on someone who is qualified and experienced. These days, you will be relieved to discover that the trainers are reasonable. In the past, it was only something that professional athletes or the rich and famous would get involved in. However, it is not unheard of to hear of a friend of family member that has signed up with a personal trainer.

You also need to know how much exercise to do. There is a balance here. It is possible to do too much and in this case you will do too much harm than good. You will usually injure yourself by pulling a muscle. If you keep on exercising, you can do more damage. A trainer can help you listen to your body which is vital.

A trainer will also help you to vary your plan. This means that you can find activities that you enjoy. This is one of the most important aspects. You need to find the time to enjoy riding bikes with your kids. This is healthy and necessary. You will need to take the dogs for a walk. You don't necessarily have to head off to the gym everyday. This is the reason why most people give up.

Personal trainers are aware of this. They know that their clients need variations. They will come up with a plan. This will include different exercises in the routine. They will reach goals while enjoying their time together at the same time. Many people join up with a running club or go walking with friends. Other people play soccer with friends.

It is not only people who want to be fit and healthy that go to a personal trainer. There are also people who have been injured or someone who may have been through with an operation. You may need to get back to full recovery. This is not always easy to do on your own. A lot of people rush into this which is the worst thing that you can do. You need to move at the pace which is right for you. This is where a trainer can work wonders.

It is also important that you have a look at the diet as well. This is something that a lot of people forget about. They assume that because they are getting enough exercise, they can continue eating junk food. It is very important to control your eating habits. This is why you need to have a consultation with the trainer beforehand.

They will encourage you to do a little exercise outside of the sessions. This may include something fun, such as going on a bike ride with the kids. It is important that this doesn't become a chore. You should incorporate it into your lifestyle. However, it should be something that you enjoy doing.

Kombucha and Digestion

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good afternoon!


I thought I would start off my new posts by talking about a product that I started to drink recently on a cleanse... the magically and oddly tasty drink called Kombucha. This drink can be bought at health food stores or made at home (here is an online link to a class being help in a few weeks in Vancouver at Radha Yoga and Eatery: http://www.radhavancouver.org/cooking-classes/).
I haven't made this drink yet but have been buying it in abundance from a company called "Kombucha Wonder Drink" (http://www.wonderdrink.com/). It is essentially a fermented tea drink which can have added natural flavours if you buy the flavoured kind. Simple ingredients such as water, oolong tea, kombucha, yeast and bacteria make up the short list of ingredients in this miracle drink. I'm always a firm believer in less is best which is why I gave this one a try.

The tea helps with digestion... an all too common problem for us celiacs as well as detoxifies your system, energizes your body, helps strengthen your immune system and regulates sugar levels and appetite. Sounds like the miracle drink wouldn't you think!!?? To be honest I haven't found that it gives me an energy boost or anything like that, but it most definitely helps in regulating appetite and digestion.
The drink can be pricey at $3-5 for a bottle with 2 servings ,but it is a nice treat to try if you are feeling sluggish and overall uncomfortable after eating food. I will warn you though, it does taste a little tart and vinegar-like if you get the original flavour of Kombucha.

So I suggest you go ahead and try some kombucha or take the class next month and start making your own yummy fermented tea drink. You might just be surprised at how much you like it.

And as usual I will leave you with my favourite recipe of the week.... a perfect little apres-dinner treat!

Raw coconut bliss balls (the bliss is what you will feel after indulging in these things!!)

3 cups of raw unsweetened coconut
2 cups of cocoa powder (you can alter this amount based on how chocolatey you want your balls to be)
1 cup of agave syrup (a sweetener that will not spike your blood sugar... and its so sweet you only need a small amount to taste it)
1/2 cup - 3/4 cup of coconut oil. (coconut oil is actually hard and is great to cook with as it heat up to higher heat levels than our usual olive or canola oil.... that being said, in this recipe its just yummy tasting and is packed full of healthy fats)

What you need to do (so simple really):

1. Blend the coconut and cocoa (you could add cocoa nibs if you wanted to make it extra yummy)
2. add agave and coconut oil, mix well and form into balls
3. Freeze.... you can then keep these in the freezer until ready to serve or try and dehydrate them after they have frozen into a ball shape. I just kept them in the freezer and took one out after dinner when I needed a treat!


Until next time :)


Lots of love!

Your fellow celiac friend xo

Day 2 - crazy day of heat, driving and stress but good food!

by noreply@blogger.com (Allyson Clark) @ A Guide to Gluten Free

Good morning!

I am sitting here at work drinking my coffee (first one in a week and a half) due to waking up at 5am for the last two days. My friend had foot surgery and I am the caretaker for the moment.

Any who, on to exciting pressing matters, my day 2 on a raw-ish diet. I am finding the transition to be fairly easy at the moment, but plan for a few bumps in the road as time goes on. Yesterday my diet consisted of:

breakfast: 1/4 banana and cup of blueberries and some chai tea (so yummy)
snack: 1 apple and 1 plum
lunch: pumpkin seeds, small piece of salmon and 1/4 cup of rice ( they were bbqing at work and I though protein would be a good add-in considering my day)
snack: 1/4 cantaloupe and a mix of fresh raspberries, blueberries and blackberries with 1/4 banana
dinner: mixed greens, 1 tomato and 1/2 avocado
snack: 1 potato with Dijon mustard (this was because I started feeling a little hungry at night and figured I needed a bit more starchy food before bed


Any who, I have been eating fairly well and do plan to cut out for starches after a while, but going cold turkey would be too much of a shock to my system.

I am feeling very good and have surprisingly been full of energy for the past 2 days, we will have to wait and see what the weekend brings. I do however enjoy the new found appreciation I have for food. I have always loved to eat, and eat very healthy but now I am really starting to enjoy eating less food but enjoying every little bit. I still haven't found a perfect balance yet, but this raw food thing seems to be a pretty nice fit with my life.

Wow I am ranting today, but I guess that's what waking up at 5am does to you. On that note, I will leave you all with this recipe that I have yet to try, but was given to me by a very special person. Enjoy!

Oh and stay tuned for my meal ideas and creations coming... some will include nori wraps, and lettuce wraps as well as mango and avocado guacamole. Raw food is sooooo good! Try it:)


Chocolate Mousse:

Ingredients:

2 Avocados
Maple Syrup
Cocoa Powder, you could also use carob or some other chocolate alternative


For each avocado add 1/3 cup of maple syrup and 1/3 cup of cocoa powder…mash up the avocado and mix it all together - refrigerate and you have a delicious mousse!!!


Give me your feedback, I'm always listening and would love to start a discussion regarding Celiac disease of raw food!

Until next time, keep enjoying all the wonderful seasonal fruits and vegetables that Canada has to offer.

Food for thought: try and eat all local produce this week and see how it makes you feel. If you want to take it one step further, also eat local grains if possible and local meat from a butcher. It seems hard at first but keeping things within your local area helps the economy and you.... who really wants to eat meat shipped in a plan from a different country, or part of the country....

Cheers,

Allyson :)
