Free Gluten Summit

Is gluten the cause of your health problems?

It very well could be. It's an interesting, and important, question to ask. Fortunately, Dr. Tom O'Bryan has made it part of his personal mission to move this question into today's conversations between patients and healthcare professionals. Asking this question could, potentially, improve the lives of millions now instead of years from now, which is how long it often takes for groundbreaking research to make it to mainstream practice. That's why I encourage you to register for the world's first Gluten Summit.  This FREE event is taking place online from November 11-17. Dr. O'Bryan has gathered 29 of the world's experts and opinion leaders on the topics of gluten-related disorders, healthy living and nutrition, each in one-to-one interviews about their particular areas of expertise. YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THE KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL EMERGE FROM THIS EXCITING EVENT! That's why you should register for FREE now: https://gg110.infusionsoft.com/go/tgs/GIG The Gluten Summit will: - Bring the latest research to the public eye with interpretation from Dr. O'Bryan; - Call more attention to gluten-related disorders; - Potentially improve diagnosis and treatment in practice; - Teach better practices for safely eating outside of the home; - Encourage more clinicians, practitioners and patients to ask, "Could it be gluten?"

GIG Volunteers Needed

It's hard to believe that Friday is November 1st and the New Year
will be here before you know it. Time is going by so fast! We still
need and are hoping for some passionate people to come and take
over GIG of SW WA for 2014. Please consider how important it
is to have a local chapter to help educate and support those people
that are struggling with gluten intolerance, Celiac Disease and many
other food related allergies. Knowledge is power and the more we
can do for ourselves and others is what it's all about.
Please contact Kristi Curtis ASAP: 360-518-0464/360-695-0862
or justus323@yahoo.com
Thank you for your help!

Smashed Potatoes

These were the most delicious potatoes I've ever had, I swear! In Australia their called Crash Hot Potatoes, I don't know why (any Australians have some insight?), whatever the name, they were SO awesome! And super simple, just boil some baby potatoes (I used red) until fork tender. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet, set potatoes on sheet and using a potato masher, gently smash each potato down, rotating masher both ways (so it looks like a thick cookie). Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt/pepper and sprinkle cut fresh herbs and garlic over each. THEN top with some lovely grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes. OMG...crispy on the outside, soft in the middle, salty, garlicky, herby and cheesy goodness. I need to make more now!!
