From: Miriam M., February 22, 2014:  Hi, I was reading on your website that Lindt extra dark chocolate tests positive for potato. How can this be? It does not list in the ingredients any of the other names also used for potato.
Will all brands of dark chocolate also test positive for potato? I am potato intolerant but like dark chocolate!  Kind regards, Miriam

Reply from Sandra:  Good morning Miriam, this is a tricky product to guess what hidden ingredients may be present. It really is a guessing game for us lay people! Thank Goodness we have our doctors who evaluate foods submitted to them. That said, here's how I would view these products as to whether they would be safe for me:

The product listed in The Food Resource List is:  Lindt Extra Dark Chocolate, evaluated 08/08 for ALL; results: D,F,G,P,S,Sy.

I looked up the different Lindt Dark Chocolate products available today and there are several: 60%, 70%, and 85% come closest to the one listed above. The simplest ingredients list of these is: Chocolate, Cocoa Powder, Cocoa Butter, Demerara Sugar, Bourbon Vanilla Beans. The red flag ingredients can be: chocolate and the bourbon vanilla beans. I would question the demerara sugar also, as it is highly processed and we don't know what all that entails. There is no salt listed, however that doesn't mean there is none if there is minimal amount below FDA requirements to list. What a loophole that is. And most processed foods contain some kind of added salt.

Chocolate is not the same as cocoa (powder), which is just one ingredient in chocolate. I googled "chocolate ingredients" and the website "the story of chocolate" came up. This is their description of it:

Chocolate is a natural product made of these ingredients:

It also may include

Vanilla bean extract is sold in a "carrier" ingredient, such as alcohol or glycerine. If you check the list of Baking Supplies, you'll see that at least 2 of the vanilla products listed evaluated positive for potato. This could be from the alcohol carrier, or possibly as a stabilizer additive.

Have you tried Green & Black's or Dagoba's dark chocolate bars? They are organic and delicious, although they do contain sugar, which I always recommend refraining from. However, they are way less harmful for you than the mainstream chocolate products. Look down the list and you will find a variety of dark chocolate bars that you can have. I understand how "hooked" we get on our favorite candies; we just have to retrain ourselves. I'm sure, once you get used to the organic chocolates you won't want to go back to the other!

Does this help clarify the mystery for you? Let me know. In health, Sandra

Miriam:  Thank you Sandra for your reply. I will definitely try the organic chocolate you recommended.

From Ashley K., February 27^th:  I'm just overwhelmed with how to use this website to suit my specific intolerances.  I'm afraid to eat most of the time.  So I'm just trying to figure out how to select the recipes for fruit intolerance.  And my sugar and grain combination.  I just don't know how to make sure a recipe I can use is for me.

Reply from Sandra:  Hello Ashley.

Let's begin with what you usually like to eat. If you would list your normal eating habits throughout the day, then that gives me a place to start helping you. I can also guide you with recipes in the Recipes section at Song of Health. If you happen to see some recipes that you are interested in, I can help you to adjust most of them. We will refer to the Substitutions List to adapt recipes, and tailor your meals for your specific needs.

My first suggestion, which will make your life a lot easier as well as healthier, is to omit all refined sugars from your diet. They are horrible for us to begin with; secondly, it will free you up to have all the grains you want provided they are fruit-free. In The Food Resource List you will find many grains and flours that have been evaluated for hidden ingredients. Unfortunately,you’ll find many grains do contain hidden fruit --- generally it is citric acid added as a preservative. It is minute enough that the FDA does not legally require companies to list it on the package ingredients; yet your body will react to even minute amounts. I can teach you where and how to refer to these resources. Have faith, before you know it, you'll be an experienced hand at using all the resources available to you!

I recommend to take it a step at a time in order to keep from getting overwhelmed. There is a ton of information on the website to help you; here's what I recommend to become familiar with in order:

1) In the FOOD CATEGORIES section: Go to your food intolerance pages ~ fruit, grain, sugar. Become comfortable with the foods and products listed on those pages. This will give you the first step at knowing what to avoid.

2) The Food Substitutions List: This is an easy-to-follow list of what can be substituted for foods you need to avoid in recipes. For example: Honey is one of the foods that can be used in place of sugar. The ratio amounts are also listed (half amount of honey to sugar).

3) The Food Resource List: This is an invaluable resource for determining if there are hidden ingredients in a food product. Remember that it is a guide only, as manufacturers may change ingredients in a product at will. The List will definitely help though, and you will find with practice and experience that you can spot iffy ingredients to stay away from.

4) The Food Intolerance Cookbook (Recipes section): You'll see that the ingredients in the recipes are coded for obvious food intolerance categories. So, if you see an ingredient in a recipe that is, for example, fruit (F), you know to substitute that ingredient wherever possible. If not substitutable, then it will have to be omitted.

Again, I can help you with all of this whenever you need. Hopefully, this will give you a place to start from and a place for me to start you out on your food intolerance free journey! I look forward to hearing from you. 
In health, Sandra

Ashley:  That helps a lot thank you!  I was wondering if there is a recipe or way to make protein bars.  Or if you know some that I could get.  I work out and I'm a mom and I work full time so this a huge change and somewhat time consuming.  Thanks.

Reply from Sandra:  Hi Ashley, I will research for you and see how I can adapt for you.  Dr. Tish actually evaluated one last weekend that you can have: Rise Protein Bar Crunchy Carob Chip. It is sweetened with agave and has no fruit.

Ashley:  Do you know where I can get those in Spokane?  I have looked some places.  I'm thinking I would have to order them.  Also, can I have brown sugar?  And I can have only distilled vinegar?

(Note:  Her intolerances are fruit; and grain/sugar combo.) 

Sandra:  Per Dr. Tish, you can purchase the Rise Protein Bar Crunchy Carob Chip at Rosauers at the "Y" on Division St. in the health food section.  You may want to call the Rosauers nearest to you and ask them if they also carry the bars.

You may have organic brown rice vinegar unseasoned.  I use the Spectrum brand.  It is listed in The Food Resource List under "Vinegar."  It is a delicious full body grain vinegar.

Brown sugar is a refined sugar.  Do not combine it with grain, your combination intolerance.  If you'll refer to the Sugar page in the Food Categories section, you will find a list of refined sugars; brown sugar is one of them.

It takes a while to get a feel for where to find the information you need on the website.  Don't worry, after a while it will be second nature to you!  In the meantime, I'm happy to help.  In health, Sandra

From Environmental Working Group, Feb. 13^th:  Dear Sandra, do you want more affordable organic food options? Or food that is labeled natural to actually be natural?

EWG sure does. That's why we're partnering with Only Organic - a new public outreach campaign.

As government regulations currently stand, almost any food can be stamped "natural" or "all natural" on its package, when in reality it's anything but. This misleading advertising can lead consumers to think these products have the same benefits as organic products.

The mission of Only Organic is to educate consumers so they understand that only organic food is made in the way nature intended, without the use of toxic pesticides, antibiotics, hormones and genetically engineered ingredients.

Click here to check out the Only Organic site and watch its uproarious new video that debunks the "natural" myth. More than 550,000 people have laughed till they've cried.

Thank you for supporting this new campaign.

Sincerely, Ken Cook

President, Environmental Working Group

Editor’s Note:  This short video is well worth watching.  A satirical presentation of a serious subject…a need-to-know. http://www.onlyorganic.org/naturaleffect/

From Environmental Working Group, March 3^rd:  Dear Sandra, Yoga mat sandwich? How about a flip-flop hoagie?

If only this were a joke. You may have heard that our friend Vani Hari - the Food Babe - just successfully campaigned to have Subway remove a chemical commonly found in yoga mats, flip-flops, insulation and more from the bread the company uses for its sandwiches.

We know how concerned the food community is about this, so EWG has taken Vani's work one step further.

Using the ingredient data from our upcoming food database, we found the same chemical - azodicarbonamide - in nearly 500 items and more than 130 brands of bread, stuffing, pre-made sandwiches and snacks.

Click here to see which foods contain this industrial chemical.

Azodicarbonamide, nicknamed ADA, is used in the plastics industry as a chemical foaming agent and in the food industry as a dough conditioner. What?!

While the additive has not undergone extensive testing to determine its health effects on humans - it is not food! Many well-known brands, including Pillsbury, Sara Lee, Shoprite, Safeway, Smucker's, Fleischman's, Jimmy Dean, Kroger, Little Debbie, Tyson and Wonder have been using it for sheer convenience.

EWG wants to make sure you have the information you need to make smarter choices about the food you eat. That's why we compiled this list of products that contain ADA.

Here's to healthier eating.

Sincerely, Ken Cook

President, Environmental Working Group

From EWG, Feb. 24^th:  It's estimated that more than 75 percent of the food in supermarkets is genetically engineered or contains GE ingredients.

And with no federal requirement that foods with genetically engineered ingredients be labeled, how are you supposed to know what you are eating?

EWG wants to make sure you have the information you need to make informed choices at the store, so our researchers created the brand-new EWG Shopper's Guide to Avoiding GE Food.

This new guide will help you navigate store shelves. It will show you the "Factory Four" - the most common GE ingredients in processed foods. And it will help you break down food labels so you can shop smart.

Click here to see EWG's one-of-a-kind Shopper's Guide to Avoiding GE Food.  It has all the information you need to make smarter choices about your food.

You can't count on the government to require labeling of GE food. And you and I both know that big food companies aren't going to step up to let you know which of their products contain GE ingredients. So check out EWG's Shopper's Guide to Avoiding GE Food today.

Sincerely, Ken Cook

New batches:

No longer contains African Shea Butter

Every batch looks a bit different ~ same wonderful ingredients.

 

no longer contains shea butter in order to create a more consistent, improved bar of soap.  For some scientific reason I cannot explain, the shea reacts with the Clove Bud essential oil and causes the butter to separate itself from the consistency of the batch.

The beauty of creating soap with natural colorants is the unique look of each batch and bar.

ENVIRONMENTAL UPDATES FROM THE U.S. EPA:

EPA Proposes New Safety Measures to Protect Farm Workers from Pesticide Exposure

WASHINGTON —Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced proposed revisions to the Worker Protection Standard in order to protect the nation’s two million farm workers and their families from pesticide exposure.

“Today marks an important milestone for the farm workers who plant, tend, and harvest the food that we put on our tables each day,” said Gina McCarthy, EPA Administrator. “EPA’s revised Worker Protection Standard will afford farm workers similar health protections to those already enjoyed by workers in other jobs. Protecting our nation’s farm workers from pesticide exposure is at the core of EPA’s work to ensure environmental justice.”

EPA is proposing significant improvements to worker training regarding the safe usage of pesticides, including how to prevent and effectively treat pesticide exposure. Increased training and signage will inform farm workers about the protections they are afforded under the law and will help them protect themselves and their families from pesticide exposure.

Workers and others near treated fields will now be protected from pesticide overspray and fumes. In addition, EPA has proposed that children under 16 be legally barred from handling all pesticides, with an exemption for family farms. These revisions protect workers while ensuring agricultural productivity and preserving the traditions of family farms.

This proposal represents more than a decade of extensive stakeholder input by federal and state partners and from across the agricultural community including farm workers, farmers, and industry on the current EPA Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for Agricultural Pesticides first established in 1992.

SHARING EXPERIENCES:

Remember that eating our food intolerances can have a dramatic effect on our moods as well as other symptoms we discuss, ad infinitum.

SEPARATING HOGWASH FROM TRUTH

By Sandra Strom, CEO of Song of Health

It has been some time since I googled “food intolerance” and related topics to determine what searches will bring up Song of Health and/or our doctors who perform the Carroll Food Intolerance Evaluation methods.  OMG!  A lot of stuff pops up on the lists, especially first page searches.  And it’s not all good --- in fact, much of it is off the hook. 

Descriptions of what food intolerance is, and the difference between it and allergies and food sensitivities, appears fairly accurate in most cases --- enough so that the reader can comprehend the gist of the basic differences.  Under a search for “food intolerance” seven listings on the first page are directed to some allopathic medical site.  The others are bloggers citing and blurting, often beginning with headlines as, “Is Food Intolerance For Real?”  One such site referred to food intolerance testing as though all methods were the same.  Doctors revered as experts in their field on line --- not sure if it is because they are so successful in healing patients or because their on line marketing techniques saturate to create an easily recognizable name --- make such claims as Dr. Andrew Weil, MD’s:  “With certain exceptions (such as sensitivities to lactose and gluten, both of which have a genetic basis), food intolerances are often highly individual and mysterious. In some cases, they are due to physical or emotional stress or exposure to environmental toxins rather than a reaction to the foods themselves.”¹  He further purports on the same page, “Sometimes you can overcome food intolerances by avoiding the food or foods to which you're sensitive for a few months. Then, you can try reintroducing each food (separately) on a regular basis beginning with tiny amounts. Eat some every day, gradually increasing the portions. With luck, you'll find that you are able to develop tolerance to foods that have previously bothered you.”   Are you kidding me?  I’m curious to know what success he’s had with that philosophy.  Where in the Great Universe do they come up with such concoctive claims?  If one just studies how the digestive system is affected first in the body when a food intolerance is consumed, they must then question how it is even possible for that statement to be true.  Allergy and food sensitivity, yes, but food intolerance?  Preposterous!

It is very important to have watch dogs calling the many shysters out who jump at the opportunity to grab your money for the promise of a panacea, an almighty cure.  We most definitely need to be aware of quackery in the “natural” world too.  For good reasons, medical doctors warn us to be wary and aware of what could be dangerous fixes.  Indeed, our naturopaths also warn us of potential life-threatening choices.  Supplements, vitamins, herbs, potions in many forms should not be taken as self-diagnosis.  If a condition exists, it can be greatly exacerbated, for example.

That said, it is in my experience that statements such as Dr. Weil’s, that we can build a tolerance to our intolerances, are completely erroneous; instead, I adhere to the Carroll methods.  I speak only for myself, but after years of suffering and numerous surgeries, once my food intolerances were identified by the late Dr. Harold Dick, ND, protégé of Dr. Otis G. Carroll, and my body was cleansed of them, remarkable healing periods began to occur.  There are numerous of your testimonials of success published on Song of Health; I have found other testimonials on other sites, as well…nearly all have been patients of one of our “Carroll” doctors.  The ones of us who take our diets seriously and avoid even minute amounts of our food intolerances in products are the ones who attest to its success.  The others who poo-poo it?  I have yet to read where any of them have followed their diets of avoidance for any length of time.  We must also change to diets of nutritious and healthy habits.

So, why the many testaments of hogwash to food intolerance avoidance published and printed in media?  In attempts to find legitimacy, I believe there are several possibilities to ponder before we decide what rings true for us.

The truths are so buried under powerful political rhetoric that only those of us with personal history, or those who are witness to the remarkable healing of acquaintances, recognize the effectiveness of eliminating foods we have been evaluated to be intolerant to, and we begin to experience what feeling good really feels like!  For those of you who are new to the Carroll Food Intolerance path, I encourage you to have faith and stick with it to the best of your ability.  You will be amazed at the changes --- some subtle, some radical.  Be bold and ask those of us who have been at it for a long time, how we do it and what are the results.  Connect on The Forum, email us, stay connected with us.  Together, we succeed!  Together, we give each other the knowledge and strength required to weed out the chaff.

To All My Relations, Sandra

*About this month’s picture:  Oh What a Beautiful Morning! Reflections Between Storms ~ The Coast Range in Pacific Northwest Oregon, near the Columbia River, is abundant in magical mystical sceneries.  Look closer and one finds an abundance of Nature’s medicinals.  Each season offers special rewards.  Now, it is a perfect time to harvest the Old Man’s Beard hanging from the trees in lacy green swags.   The woods are echoing with the awakening chirps of squirrels and peck peck pecking of brushy bright red-headed woodpeckers.  At home, lilacs and hydrangeas are sprouting green, while the happy yellow of daffodil blooms brighten the day.  Time to rub sleepy winter eyes and prepare for blooming joys of what is just around the corner…Springtime! 

FOOD RESOURCE LIST UPDATES

THE FOOD RESOURCE LIST ON THE WEBSITE IS AVAILABLE IN PRINTABLE VERSION. JUST GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE AND CLICK ON "SOH RESOURCE LIST PART 1 OR PART 2" FOR THE VERSION IN .PDF FORM.

Use the codes below to translate the Results Column.

HOW TO READ THE FOOD RESOURCE LIST AND USE THE KEY:

 As items are submitted and analyzed by our staff doctors, they are then added to the Food Resource List on the Song of Health website. We compile the updated lists to email to you as well.

 The items are listed per category.

 By listing the “Date Evaluated” you can be assured of the most recent updates.

 Under the “Evaluated For” column, “ALL” signifies that the product has been analyzed for all food categories included in the Carroll Food Intolerance Evaluation Method.

In some cases, you will see ingredients listed in the “Results” column that are ot included in “Evaluated For.” This is due to: 1) the ingredient has been listed on the packaging; 2) or it is obviously in the stated category; 3) or our doctors evaluated for more than what was asked for. For example, results for milk will be “dairy (D).”

 Under “Purchased At” we no longer furnish where the product was purchased; however, if the product was purchased outside the Pacific Northwest area, the region will be noted.  Sometimes, I will be able to locate a place to purchase a product for you, if requested.

If you have any questions, please contact us at:
