This Is A Coup Against Our Right To Govern Ourselves

The blizzard of lies and distraction blowing through Washington is not just any routine stuffstorm, but a calculated attempt to bring down a president – our president, not the establishment’s president. And more than that, it’s an attempt to ensure that we never again have the ability to disrupt the bipartisan D.C. cabal’s permanent supremacy by inserting a chief executive who refuses to kiss their collective Reid.

This is a coup against us. It’s a coordinated campaign by liberals and their allies in the bureaucracy and media to once and for all ensure their perpetual rule over us. We need to fight it, here and now, so we don’t have to fight it down at the bottom of this slippery slope.

Blood Type Diet Chart – Type O

Type O blood often signifies a physiology which is uniquely suited to processing animal proteins. As a result of this efficiency, the optimal diet for those with Type O blood features a lot of meat, poultry, and seafood. These high-quality proteins are efficiently processed and converted into nutrition for the body to provide energy and ensure the healthy function of the body’s many different systems. On the other hand, gluten in many grain products, can antagonize the body and throw a wrench in its works, creating stress on the body and creating imbalances.
Following the correct blood type diet for Type O blood helps ensure the body’s equilibrium and functioning are maintained. Find out which foods are best for the Type O blood type diet and which to avoid using the chart at this URL:

The news for Target is getting worse and worse

Despite the deep financial losses, its stores looking like ghost towns, and unprecedented backlash by consumers, Target appears content with its sprint into self-destruction.
Target's leadership problems are so deep, stockholders are questioning whether or not the company is in qualified hands. So much so, it has recently fired five top executives and has slashed CEO Brian Cornell's pay by one-third.
And that's the tip of the iceberg for the gasping retailer, when you consider these recent headlines:
While AFA's boycott is focused on Target's bizarre and dangerous dressing room and bathroom policy, the company has a history of distaste for traditional family values. For example, Target has abolished "boys" and "girls" signs from its toys and bedding departments in an effort to remove references to gender. On multiple occasions, Target has supported state and national legislative efforts that would force Christian business owners to violate their religious convictions.
Then, there's Target’s all out love affair with the LGBTQ. For the past two years, Target stores have entire sections dedicated to products normalizing homosexuality. In many instances, profits from the sale of the products are donated to gay advocacy groups for the promotion of the lifestyle to children in public schools.

NO, OATS ARE NOT GLUTEN-FREE, HERE’S WHY

NO, OATS ARE NOT GLUTEN-FREE, HERE’S WHY

Posted on July 21, 2016 by Tracey Creed
There’s a lot of confusion around oats and whether or not labelling them as gluten free is justifiable. So let’s take a look at what gluten actually is!

Gluten is used to describe a prolamin protein fraction that affects those with coeliac disease. This gluten fraction is called gliadin in wheat, hordein in barley, secalin in rye and avenin in oats.

The term “gluten free oats” is sometimes assigned to oats that have been grown and processed without coming into any contact with wheat, barley or rye (which contain gliadin, hordein and secalin).

However, current laboratory tests can only test for the first three of those, as avenin is a slightly different form of protein. Oats naturally contain avenin and therefore are not truly gluten free. Even tiny traces of gluten can cause symptoms in those with coeliac disease.

WHAT IS COELIAC DISEASE?

Coeliac disease is an autoimmune condition characterised by gastrointestinal symptoms including bloating, vomiting, gas, diarrhoea, constipation, unintentional weight loss and anaemia.

When people with coeliac disease eat foods containing gluten, their body makes antibodies that attack gluten, causing damage to the small intestine. This damage and inflammation of the small intestine causes all of the very unpleasant symptoms listed earlier.

Avoiding all forms of gluten is absolutely necessary for people with coeliac disease. Any damage to the small intestines means the body cannot absorb vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, which can lead to nutritional deficiencies.

Thankfully, coeliac disease can be diagnosed with a simple blood test, although you must not have been following a gluten-free diet for at least six weeks beforehand in order to get accurate results. Currently, its only treatment is to follow a gluten free diet for a person’s entire lifetime.

COELIAC NZ ON OATS

Although even pure, uncontaminated oats can trigger symptoms in some, the avenins found in wheat free oats are tolerated by majority of those with coeliac disease.

Research by Dr. Robert Anderson suggested that only one in five people with coeliac disease reacted to uncontaminated oats. Despite this, the advice from both Dr. Anderson and Coeliac New Zealand is that people with coeliac disease should not consume oats, as it is impossible to know who is going to have a reaction until it happens or they have been tested and given the all clear.

Currently, the only way to find out whether or not someone with coeliac disease can consume oats is to undergo a gastroscopy/biopsy.

However, there are cases where it may be worthwhile for someone with coeliac disease to experiment with certified wheat free oats or undergo gastroscopy/biopsy – under the guidance of a GP or a registered dietitian, of course. One such case is if they have a condition like type 1 diabetes, where oats may be beneficial in stabilising blood sugar levels.

People with non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (those with gluten sensitivity who have tested negative for coeliac disease) may experience similar symptoms to those with coeliac disease, while lacking the same antibodies and intestinal permeability that the disease creates. Therefore, while someone with gluten sensitivity may feel better on a gluten-free diet, the chances that oats will cause a problem are incredibly slim.

LEGALLY SPEAKING, OATS ARE NOT GLUTEN FREE

You may have noticed that while they are spoken of quite often, oats labelled as ‘certified gluten free’ are actually not available in New Zealand.

Under the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code, oats and products containing them, are not permitted to be labelled as gluten free due to the reasons outlined above.

For this same reason, an oat-containing product labelled “gluten free” overseas may be labelled “wheat free” in New Zealand, despite being exactly the same product. This is why there has been confusion around oats and ‘gluten free’ labelling in NZ. The fact is, they are not.

Conclusively, oats are not part of a gluten free diet, however some people may be able to enjoy them in small amounts.
