This is SO EASY. And so tasty. Why didn't I try it before? Dunno. But you'all can try it now. No special ingredients even.1 cup rice flour (we had sweet rice flour: haven't tried it with anything else yet).1/4 cup water1/2 tsp. salt1 eggMix all that up. You might need to adjust the amount of flour to make a nice dough. It tends to thicken up as it sits, so make it a little thin at first. (Also of course it will depend on the size of the egg ...)Let it sit for a bit before working (so the water can sink in).Now roll it into balls and smash with the bottom of a glass, or a big sheet to cut into squares or strip into noodles. We didn't use xanthan gum or Chebe or any other gluten substitute. We used a silicone baking mat to roll it out, which makes life easier. Sprinkle rice flour onto the dough so it doesn't stick. You can stack the cut wonton with rice flour between the layers too.We tried these in many different ways. They made good "egg rolls" when fried. They made goodwonton when boiled. Also great egg noodles. Didn't dissolve into the soup. Baked they were a little dry (if you want to bake them you might want to add some oil to the dough, and/or baking powder). Steamed they were wonderful. I expect they would make great tortillas on the tortilla press. Our fried wonton were stuffed with prosciutto because it was handy, and forsome reason they ended up tasting like cheese crackers. I was thinking of blending up some prosciutto in water and adding it to the dough.Ummm yummm ... Nothing like chicken soup with egg noodles fat creates bm not fiber.It was thought that it was the fiber absorbing water and bulking out which stimulates movement but this study by researchers at Medical College of Georgia gives a different mechanism -- the non-digestable fibrous foods hit cells, rupture the cells' outer cover and a beneficial, cell-protecting mucus is released. "An injury at the cell level can promote health of the GI tract as a whole."They say that the mucus (glad to know there's such a thing as 'beneficial' mucous!) provides a lining against carcinogens; the mucous acts as a boundary between the body and "external" substances. Good news for all of us "bulking up" on fresh fruits and vegetables, ground flax seed and whole grains (preferably sprouted). "Adequate water intake is also very important. Muscles are designed to slide and glide across one another. Imagine how that sliding and gliding would be affected if the tissues are dry and sticky!""trans fat is similar to what is found in meat and dairy." Forearm Pain Self Care Forearm pain self care takes on an interesting twist when you consider the anatomy of the forearms. When you use your hands, muscles on one side of the forearms contract while the muscles on the other side lengthen. In order for you to be pain free, these muscles must be able to work in a balanced way. So, if one side is tight or adhered, the other side will have to overwork to compensate.This can lead to pain and injury.Forearm Pain Self Care Program-Click Here  Stretching is the best way to relieve forearm pain. This encourages tissues that are adhered to release from one another in the quickest way possible. It's also a great way to balance the function of the muscles on both sides of the forearms.It's important to choose stretching exercises that affect all of the muscles of the forearms independently. Because your injury has developed as a result of how you use your hands and arms, it is impossible to tell at the beginning which muscles are creating your problem. So, choose stretches that work on all the muscles of the forearms and pay attention to how they feel as you practice them. This will give you clues as to which muscles are causing your symptoms.After any period of stretching, be sure to rest your arms for at least 30 seconds before doing something new with your hands. This allows the muscle tissue time to recover from the stretch. Remember that stretching should never be painful in any way.In addition to stretching it's important to identify other sources of forearm strain and try to eliminate as much of that strain as possible. If you use your hands extensively in your work, your forearm muscles are already under a lot of strain in the normal course of your day. To avoid further strain to your forearms, consider eliminating stressful activities like hand-intensive sports and hobbies. Choose only to do the most essential things with your hands and arms while you are trying to recover and your arms will thank you.As always, consistency and care are the most important concepts to grasp when restoring forearms to normal, pain-free function and range of motion. Pay close attention to the sensations your body sends as you stretch. Never overdo it and never cause pain.Adequate water intake is also very important. Muscles are designed to slide and glide across one another. Imagine how that sliding and gliding would be affected if the tissues are dry and sticky!Get up when the alarm goes off, don't hit snooze, don't lay down again.It's really simple.  It's not pleasant, but it's simple. Don't hit snooze.
