Pad Thai is one of my favorite dishes. I just love the savory peanut taste with fresh organic veggies and noodles. Kelp noodles are a new and amazing raw food that I was recently turned on to.

I caught a glimpse of a segment on Good Morning America about gluten intolerance. 1 out of 7 people have some form of intolerance even as severe as Celiac disease, most not even knowing it. The segment featured Elizabeth Hasselbeck, author of The GFree Diet. She talks about symptoms such as stomach pain, and fatigue, to migraine’s and the inability to conceive. Gluten is found most commonly in products using wheat, barley, and rye. It can also be hidden in marinates, gravies, and soy sauce.
