          Digestive enzymes are a Must especially if you don’t have a Gall Bladder

            Digestive Enzymes
            Panplex-2 Phase   Integrative Therapeutics
            60 count $15.20     180 count $43.40

            Are you functioning without a Gall Bladder?  Have you had it removed or any other parts missing due to surgery? Yes, you can live without them, but it hinders your health.  Each organ has a specific roll, and we MUST supplement to help our bodies do what it should naturally.  Especially as we age, we lose 50% HCL every decade, then lose the ability to make more the next decade of our lives.  This is one reason why it’s harder to loss weight as we get older.  Our body simply can’t do it without help.  This is a picture of a current client who started taking digestive enzymes and in a few short days she began to process the food she was eating.  No more “food babies” as I have heard it referred to as, the bloat and pain become so much less.

            Panplex 2-Phase is a dual-action formula that provides support for both the gastric and intestinal phases of digestion.† This dual-phase supplement provides support for more complete digestion in both the stomach and intestinal tract. Panplex 2-Phase combines pancreatic enzymes with hydrochloric acid and pepsin for healthy digestion support.† Phase I gastric support includes hydrochloric acid and pepsin.† Phase II intestinal support includes pancreatin and bile salts in a delayed-release matrix designed to protect against deactivation of enzymes by stomach acids.

                  Gluten-free food labels under new FDA rules

                    Gluten-free food labels under new FDA rules

                    * The terms, “gluten free,” “no gluten,” “free of gluten” and “without gluten” can be used on labels of foods that meet the FDA gluten-free standard.
                    * No universal symbol will appear on packages to indicate that a food meets the FDA gluten-free standard. If a food company wants to indicate that a product meets the standard, it has to use one of the gluten-free terms.
                    * Certification seals from third parties, for example a seal from the Gluten Free Certification Organization, can continue to be used on labels. The FDA says it does not endorse or recommend any particular certification seal. Any food that uses a third party certification seal must meet the FDA labeling requirements at a minimum. Typically the standards for certification seals are stricter than the FDA requirements.
                    * The label format is left up to food makers; the FDA does not have a mandated design or any requirements for where the gluten-free label has to be placed.
                    * Food makers can continue to use the terms, “made with no gluten containing ingredients” and “not made with gluten containing ingredients.” If the terms are used in conjunction with a gluten-free label, the product must meet the FDA standard. If the terms are used without a gluten-free label, the FDA says, “consumers should not assume the food meets all FDA requirements.”
                    * Food makers can continue to use advisory statements such as, “Made in a factory that also processes wheat products” on a food that also has a gluten-free label. The FDA says it will need to “look at foods on a case by case basis to determine whether a specific advisory statement with a gluten-free claim would be misleading.” Any product with the advisory statement and gluten-free label would have to meet the FDA requirements.
                    * Naturally gluten-free foods can be labeled gluten free. This is a change from the proposed rules which would have prohibited the gluten-free label on inherently gluten-free foods including gluten-free grains and products like bottled water unless the label also said all foods of the same type were also gluten free. The final rule addresses concerns that some gluten-free grains, legumes and seeds have a high risk of cross-contamination. A gluten-free label on these kinds of products “provide the expectation that any gluten is less than 20 ppm,” the FDA says.
                    * Gluten-free labeling continues to be voluntary so even products that are gluten free may not be labeled as such. This is likely to come up most often with naturally gluten-free products with a low risk of cross-contamination, fruits and vegetables for example. The lack of a gluten-free label does not mean the food contains gluten.

                      ALL ORGANIC INGREDIENTS

                      20 oz Lily’s chocolate chips
                      14 oz Can full fat coconut milk
                      3 TBSP Ghee (or butter) cubed at room temperature
                      2 TBSP Kahlua
                      1/4 tsp cinnamon
                      1/2 tsp vanilla extract
                      1/4 tsp Sea salt
                      1 tsp espresso powder or 1 TBSP cold brew

                      Lightly grease an 8 x 8-inch baking pan.
                      Line with parchment paper, allowing the excess paper to overlap on two of the sides, set aside.
                      Add the chocolate and espresso powder into a large, heatproof bowl; set aside.
                      Fill a saucepan with a little water (about 1/4 full) bring it to a boil.
                      Reduce to barely a simmer. Place the bowl containing the chocolate and espresso powder on top of the pot.
                      Cook, stirring frequently, until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is completely smooth, about 8-10 minutes.
                      Add coconut milk and ghee, cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until it is completely melted. Remove from heat.
                      Whisk in the Kahlua, vanilla, sea salt, and cinnamon. The mixture will be VERY thick.
                      Transfer to pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to slice.
                      Remove the fudge and transfer it to a cutting board. Peel off parchment paper and slice into small pieces.
                      Serve at once or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month or freezer up to 2 months.
