-
Just a heads up. The Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University has shown a possibleassociation between medication called Olmesartan and small bowel disease. They have found that the side effect is similar to Celiac symptoms. They stated if you are taking Olmesartan you should thick about talking to your physician. Olmesartan is used to treat high blood pressure in adults and children 6 years of age or older. This medication blocks the action of certain natural substances that tighten the blood vessels, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. Olmesartan is also be used to treat congestive heart failure and diabetic nephropathy. (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0000215/)

ABOUT THE BOOK Embracing the future means remembering the past . . .  When Beck Holiday lost her father in the North Tower on 9/11, she also lost her memories of him.

Below Deck Mediterranean Season 4 Junkie Review

-

For some reason, I fell in love with Below Deck series, especially Below Deck Mediterranean. Why not spend a night watching rich people getting drunk and employees making a fool of themselves. Season 4 has been one of my favorite seasons. There wasn't much drinking and sex like the previous seasons. This season did bring up some hard topics such as dealing with being an alcoholic, rape, culture, homophobic. Bravo brings us on a trip through the French Riviera for Season 4.

With high expectations, she has no tolerance for anything short of perfection and will take drastic measures if the crew can't deliver. Hannh, looking to right her wrongs from last season, is hoping for smooth sailing with a strong interior crew. But will choppy waters threaten her redemption? Mila, classically trained in French culinary cuisine, becomes the first female chef in franchise history
