Gluten Sensitivity vs Celiac Disease - Doctor Explains

[@LadyPantera57]

This video is very interesting! If most of the wheat in the US is not providing the essential amino acids that we need produce extremely important neurotransmitters, this could have a huge impact on depression. I know someone with a history of depression who recently started eating a lot of packaged ramen with meatballs because it's less time consuming to prepare than what they were eating before. They've been having more difficulty getting out of bed during the last few weeks than they had previously. It might be time to switch them off the ramen.

[@itmaster3805]

[@ohana8535]

Processed food is difficult because there are soooo many ingredients and places for cross contact. It's really hard to tell what part is causing the problem. That is why processed foods should be avoided. Maybe you could help them fix some frozen meals that are more healthy?

[@LadyPantera57]

@@ohana8535 Last night I let them know that I was concerned and asked if I could help mass prepare something healthier for them. They also have autism, so they're very particular about what foods they are willing to eat and will often eat the same meal for years at a time. That's one of the reasons why I knew it was important to stop the ramen pattern quickly because once they get used to a routine, it's very hard for them to get comfortable with something new. After our conversation, I quickly ran to Costco and got a few whole food items that they already like and I made a few portions as soon as I got back. They were grateful and I think sometimes it's just really hard to pull yourself out of the depression hole. They say it takes a village to raise a child, but you still need that village as an adult.

[@thogan]

I have had intestinal pain and cramping within 2 hours after eating wheat, barely and especially rye since childhood. Yet I tested negative at Mayo Clinic for Celiac antibodies. For years I was diagnosed as having IBS of unkown origin and prescribed drugs to calm my intestines which only had unpleasant side effects and then had other drugs prescribed to try to treat the side effects of the first drugs. I now avoid all foods containing wheat, barley or rye which has resolved the intestinal issues that I had for 62 years. It is not something that just happened in the last 10 or 12 years.

[@terryjwood]

The allergist at Children's Hospital had this gem of advice for me regarding who to trust about foods. He said, "If something makes you ill, DON'T EAT IT!" Such simple, straightforward advice! You're the best arbitrator of what does and doesn't sit well with your gut because you live in your body 24/7/365. 🙂 You're absolutely doing the right thing!

[@terryjwood]

@@noglu106 Could be their egos? My now-fired PCP told me it was IMPOSSIBLE for gluten to be an issue for me. He was SCREAMING this at me. He insisted I needed Valium, not the GF diet. The allergist, on the other hand, looked at the evidence I had gathered and said I was gluten intolerant. He told me to, literally, trust my gut. "If something you eat makes you ill, for heaven's sake, DON'T EAT IT!" My PCP was really weak in this area, but his ego wouldn't let him admit it. Thank God I fired him. I never would have regained my health otherwise.

[@terryjwood]

@@wrenfan If you don't blood test and do an endoscopy before going on the GF diet, you can't distinguish between celiac disease and NCGS. That's the only reason I can see for not just trying the gluten free diet first. Because if the diet does work, most people won't want to hear, "Now you have to do a gluten challenge to make yourself sick again, so your PCP can give you his permission to eat gluten free again!" Most people don't want to get sick again, just to satisfy a doctor's curiosity. That's what happened to me. My old PCP had his chance to order the endoscopy and refused. I went gluten free on my own and quickly recovered. Once I got healthy, I wasn't going back. My NEW PCP agreed with my reasoning.

[@terryjwood]

@@noglu106 The only treatment for NCGS is the gluten free diet for life. In that way, NCGS is very much like celiac disease.

I am not celiac (I have been tested), but I consider myself gluten intolerant and have been gluten free for many years. I do have a very sensitive stomach (IBS) and am lactose intolerant, but after an elimination diet I decided to go gluten free. Gluten doesn’t cause me to have the same gastrointestinal issues as lactose, only bloating and a noisy stomach. But the more notable effects are that it immediately (within 5 minutes) will cause me to have are foggy brain, headache and inflammation, which the inflammation includes skin welps, bloodshot eyes, fatigue, etc. this will happen when I have food that is cross-contaminated or perhaps has hidden gluten, like vegetables steamed in water with gluten ingredients. I have never met anyone that has these same issues with gluten as I do, but I hear that it varies for everyone.

[@itmaster3805]

depends which gluten test you have had. The better test will have you eat wheat products for every meal for a week, then test you. An endoscopy with a snip of a small intestine cilia will determine if blunted.

[@terryjwood]

What you're describing sounds very much how I felt before going on the gluten free diet. The brain fog which I had to fight in order to do anything. The inflammation in my joints and muscles. I also had rashes and fatigue. It also caused me to develop ulcerative colitis, which would not respond to medication. My doctor said I'd have to have my colon removed! The gluten free diet fixed so much of that within a few days. Healing the ulcerative colitis took longer, but I finally got there. Today I'm absolutely fine as long as I stick to the diet. It takes time to learn all you need to know to be gluten free. I found that joining support groups on Facebook made all the difference. Having people I could talk to helped me to turn this around. I'd urge you to reach out on Facebook too! There is life after gluten! It's a wonderful feeling to be healthy again!

I've been ill my whole life since a small child. Complained of so many symptoms along with rashes and abdominal pain. Told so many doctors I feel worse after eating. I was told, "it's in your mind", or "you're a hard case", or "you're just depressed". Was diagnosed with osteoporosis at age 40 ( tests showed bones of a78 y.o), and three spinal fractures starting at age 32, nerve damage (we don't know why, but it's not MS yet) cluster-tic syndrome.....(here's a pill or a shots). At age 72 I finally figured it out myself. Stopped all gluten and within 1 year I hardly have the amount or severity of the head and face pain I used to get. (bedridden for up to 5 days and nights with excruciating pain) Lost many jobs. I now treat myself. I have stopped all doctors as they just push pills (that only give more side effects) and have done nothing to help me in 70 something years. My nerve damage does progress with every slip of something that claims to be gluten free and takes me a while to then figure out what it is. I think doctors need to be shown that everyone that comes into their office crying from pain is not depressed from anything other than being in pain, and they need to forget the drug pushing reps, and LISTEN.

Celiacs really should not eat gluten but there are quite a bit of additives in the USA that are banned by the EU for example that might make symptoms worse for Celiacs and non-Celiacs alike.

Again, as an agrifood engineer, there are significant differences between American « bread » and the many European breads. Bleaching is not authorized in Europe. Many European breads use leaven and yeast. Leaven hydrolizes protein and anti-nutritional factors. And there are less additives permitted in bread, or they are permitted at a much lower level.

[@lizf3325]

I think it’s a combination of completely decimated frankenfood and, also has to do with HOW we make our wheat products. Baking sodas/powders and fast acting yeasts were never part of original wheat use. Wheat was mixed with clean water and set out gathering natural and local yeasts from the air. The fermentation and slow yeast capture breaks the proteins/glutens and grains down to be digestible, nutrients absorbable. I do a 16hr+ whole dough ferment with local non gmo wheat and I can eat bread again. Not only do I tolerate it well but it has improved digestive issues. Store bought “sourdough” does not have the same positive effect on me. It’s a little better but, not even close. Now if I can get a garden in this year I’ll be closer to healing my body but, I’m repairing years of digestive havoc and autoimmune! It’s insane! Not everyone can afford organic and my local store literally only has apples (2.29lb) and olivia’s greens (7.99 per container) for organic produce. What’s happening to our food system has been a slow and steady disease making money machine.

My sensitivity to gluten did not happen till I had Hashimotos. I was never sensitive to dairy or gluten till then. I do not have Celiac disease. I was tested for that. My theory is the GMOs And pesticides have created this. I am glad to see you bring this out. I agree with you.

[@pera06]

Gut hyperpermeability (leaky gut). Gluten gradually destroys the gut lining and open the tight junctions making your react to foods. Because wheat is one of the most aggressive foods for the gut, it tends to be the first on to trigger discomfort or reactions. Dr. Zsofia Clemens has found a link between gut hyper permeability and autoimmune disease, look her up. The fact you developed a gluten intolerance after Hashimoto's makes complete sense, accordingto her findings. The Hashimoto's is due to your gut having sustained long term damage to the point of you developing an autoimmune condition. A damaged gut will be intolerant to most foods until the trigger foods are removed from the diet. Best wishes!

[@boycott2720]

Celiac Disease is an autoimmune disorder. Having an autoimmune disorder does not mean you can't be poisoned, and being poisoned does not mean you have an autoimmune disorder, even if the symptoms are similar. So your theory is by definition incorrect.

[@ohana8535]

PN is common with Celiac Disease. Did the doctor do a blood test? Or you could start with a genetics test. If you don't have the HLADQ2 or 8 gene, you can't have Celiac so that would be a rule out. The only problem with that is about 30% of the general population has at least one of those genes. So a positive does not diagnose Celiac, but not having the gene can rule it out completely.

I have the same issue. Oatmeal is the absolute worst. It will make my nerves inflamed for about 2 days so if I were to eat it every day, I’d be in a constant state of inflammation, gradually getting more and more severe. I can’t eat a slice of bread or a hamburger bun either. Beer is also supper inflammatory for me now. All started around age 36 for me and I’m now 40. I ate tons of bread and had lots of beer living in Germany just before this started without issue but as soon as I moved to the US, I had to quit grains entirely. I believe it’s the weed killer.

Grandma had no autistic children of the 8 that survived. Furthermore you have people "identifying" as autistic with no admirable traits just because that is the society we live in.

17 years ago I discovered, via a food diary that I was keeping, that I became ill after eating wheat, rye or barley. Whole wheat bread, rye bread, and malt all would individually make me ill. My PCP blood tested me for celiac disease. It came back negative -- twice. So he declared that it was IMPOSSIBLE (that's him YELLING) that gluten was a problem for me. He prescribed VALIUM instead. I fired him on the spot and went gluten free. I sought out a pediatric allergist at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh to have a look at my medical records and my food diary. In about 10 minutes he told me that I was gluten intolerant and to eat a gluten free diet for the rest of my life. The GFD has given me my life back. But I didn't give up looking for what NCGS might be. I was genetically tested for the genes that cause celiac disease. I carry one allele of the DQ2.5 gene. This gives me a statistical chance of 1/1250 of developing celiac disease. This isn't zero, but it's close. So the bottom line is that I have no idea whether I have CD or NCGS. But it doesn't matter. I'm eating gluten free, so I'll never suffer the disease anyway. I've followed the research of Dr. Alessio Fazano, formerly at the Univ. of Maryland and now a researcher at Mass. General Hospital for Children. He's been a long term researcher of celiac disease and now is looking into NCGS. He believes that a protein he discovered in 2001 called zonulin may be the culprit in NCGS. It regulates the "tightness" of the gut (and other barriers in the body). In the presence of zonulin the gut literally leaks, which allows the contents of the gut into the body and vice-versa. This causes an innate immune system response to clean up the released particles and it also allows bacteria in the gut fuel to quickly reproduce. This would explain the gas and bloating that occurs after people with NCGS consume wheat, rye and barley. Dr. Fazano is currently doing human trials on a medication that would inhibit the production of zonulin by the body in an attempt to protect those with NCGS from cross contamination. We wouldn't be able to eat gluten regularly, but we might be able to survive minor cross contamination at a restaurant. That's his hope, at least. As to people with NCGS going to Europe and eating gluten with no issues, that doesn't work for me. And it makes sense -- the US sells wheat to countries around the world. That bread you ate in France might be made with wheat from Pennsylvania. Unless you know where the wheat came from, you can't really know what you're eating. People who try this experiment on a regular basis end up very sick. And one other thing I'll note. The FODMAP diet is a gluten free diet. It is a true subset of the foods allowed on a gluten free diet. If you don't get relief from the FODMAP diet, you probably won't get relief on a general gluten free diet.

Thank-you for this information, and for all you do to inform the public. A scientific paper from Turkey some years ago reported that modern wheat contains much more gluten than older strains such as Einkorn. As you said, modern wheat has been bred intensively, mainly to increase yield, to the point that it now contains almost no nutritional value. I have long suspected that the gluten in modern wheat also increased in toxicity; however I was unaware of the modifications made to modern wheat by Monsanto vis-a-vis Roundup. The leaky gut idea has come up before, but it appears to have a sounder basis now. I must take issue with one point - oats DO contain gluten, although there appears to be less, and oat gluten appears to be less toxic. Consumers and medical professionals should keep in mind that rye, barley, oats and other crops have also been subjected to intensive selective breeding, primarily to increase yield. Such selective breeding, or genetic modifications, have consequences. Again, thank-you.

Another huge issue with glyphosate...The shikimate pathway is a seven-step metabolic pathway used by bacteria, archaea, fungi, algae, some protozoans, and plants for the biosynthesis of folates and amino acids. This pathway is not found in animal cells, so it was pushed as safe for humans. Unfortunately, our gut microbiome is made up of trillions the above, which can cause autoimmune issues. Killing off our microbiome creates intestinal permeability (leaky gut) which allows intact protein molecules in our blood that the body goes into overdrive to eliminate. If these proteins resemble any of our own, the organs that create them can be attacked also.

Having histamine in your body is a good thing until it is too much or won’t exit the body. Foods on a low histamine diet are fresh whole food, I stick with fresh gently cooked meats and cruciferous vegetables and or a few others. I focus on avoiding citric, lecithins, beans, canned, smoked, and preserved foods. Chemicals and ultra processed foods are an absolute no.

@@davidadcock3382 You CAN spray Roundup on wheat crops, but it's rarely done. One reason to spray Roundup on wheat is if you need to destroy the crop -- such as when weather or insects have ruined a crop. Of course this results in no harvest of the crop. Another reason is if a crop has been infested with weeds, just prior to harvest. Roundup might be used to kill the weeds that are living within the now mature, dry wheat. It's rare to do this, but it can be safely done. This removes the weeds that would otherwise be harvested along with the wheat. Roundup can also be safely used before a wheat crop is planted or after one has been harvested. Again, this is for weed control. But Roundup is only used in about 33% of all US wheat acres, according to the National Association of Wheat Growers. So 2/3rds of all US wheat acres aren't using it at all. And it's a myth that wheat growers "drench" their fields with Roundup to quickly dry the crop for harvest. That would be an incredible waste of money, especially where pennies per bushel count! It's unnecessary. Wheat dries naturally as it matures. No chemicals needed. If a farmer is going to apply Roundup to a field, it will most likely be an empty one.

Its not just wheat. I quit sugar, starch, grain and high glycemic fruit a year and a half ago. I on occasion drink a beer or eat a pastrami on rye and by the next day i have jock itch. It promotes bad bacterial and yeast over growth. It goes beyond the fact grains are high glycemic sugars. I also drink only craft beer not buttwiper or sewers. I just simply dont include grain or seed products in my diet foundation. I dont think grain was ever meant to be part of our diet and the fact is in nature deer, etc eat the whole plant not just the grain so it is not processed of refined into super calories. You think its some coincidence we feed cattle grain in feed lots to fatten them up before slaughter or that our pets fed a 70% processed grain based diet get tooth decay/oral health issues, diabetes and cancers. Grain/seed comprises the majority of calories in fast/processed foods via flour and oil. The body does not treat all calories the same. Refined grain/seed bypasses the full digestive process over loading/over whelming the liver/pancreas/cells with glucose and triglycerides not like a normal whole food meal does. People are crazy to keep grain in the foundation of their diet.

My understanding is that US wheat species is a hybrid wheat and is different from what they grow in Europe. I remember the chef Julia Child had a heck of a time making French bread she learned to make in France in the US because of the differences in our wheat. This was way before Roundup. Also I have heard that gluten sensitive people can have sourdough wheat bread if it is a true sourdough because the enzymes break down the gluten.

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

All wheat is hybrid! And they are all the SAME species! They can interbreed. And gluten is what is needed to trap CO2 from the yeast to make the bread. Gluten is a group of proteins that will form a bubble film. This traps the CO2. This is contained in the wheat germ, the embryo wheat plant that is on the side of the wheat seed. This is removed in the milling process, pretty much, to give just the endosperm - the starch! All purpose flour has some of the gluten added back to it. Bread flour has even more. Pastry and cake flour has less. Pastry uses fat for its leavening and cake uses baking powder, sodium bicarbonate mainly. And bread, as I say above, uses yeast. Different varieties of wheat will have more or less gluten in the germ, so some varieties (NOT species!) are better for some uses than for others. Also, different varieties of wheat have been developed to grow well in particular climates. Winter wheat was developed to be planted in the fall, survive long stretches of below freezing weather and then sprout in the spring well before the fields have dried up enough from the winter melt. Machinery can not be used at that time so having the seed already "planted" is a useful method of agriculture.

The issue that I have is the fact that I have NO SYMPTOMS! I can eat wheat products all day long without the usual effects of bloating, diarrhea, and other digestive tract problems that usually occur in Celiac patients. My doctor wanted me to go on a Gluten-free diet, but I am resistant to do that because I am not willing to give up the desirable qualities of gluten in bread products.

I have a friend who, like you, is a silent celiac. She has no symptoms. She can eat all the gluten she wants and never has discomfort. So she had little incentive to eat gluten free, even though she tried. So I understand what it's like for you. I introduced her to the great gluten free products I was already using, such as a locally produced gluten free beer! I warned her not to drink "gluten reduced" beers as they still contain gluten. Beer doesn't test correctly the way food does when it's tested for gluten. Even regular beers appear to be low to no gluten when tested. Only a true gluten free beer is safe. In short, after going completely gluten free, she realized that she did feel better than she had in some time. Gluten was affecting her, but it wasn't as obvious as most celiacs. I've been gluten free for 17 years. I've found gluten free alternatives for all my favorite foods. I bake my own gluten free bread which is a nice as any whole wheat bread I used to eat. You don't have to give up the foods you love -- you just have to make them gluten free. And nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels!

Keep in mind that celiac disease can be traced back to at least Roman times. I read a Nat Geo article about analysis of a body from that era that had all the signs of death by celiac disease. And there was evidence she was trying to treat it with diet. Sadly, she wasn't successful. Celiac disease isn't new. And think about this. Humans have been cultivating wheat for 10,000 years. But our species is at least 1 MILLION years old. So for 990,000 years we WEREN'T eating wheat, rye or barley. So eating gluten is a relatively NEW thing!

@@terryjwood yes, I know, but I can see how my original comment caused some confusion. But even so, Celiac disease and gluten intolerance were much more rare until the last few decades.

[@terryjwood]

@@gutmicrobiomequeen When Dr. Alessio Fasano, the celiac researcher at Mass. General Hospital for Children, in Boston, came from Italy to America, he wondered why there were so few cases of celiac disease in America. He was hoping there was something different about America that he could take home to Italy to help celiac disease patients. What he discovered was that doctors in America weren't correctly diagnosing patients. Instead of coding celiac disease they coded IBS. Even today the time to a correct diagnosis of a celiac disease patient can be up to TEN years. Seventeen years ago my own PCP (and many other physicians) denied that NCGS existed. Instead of treating my illness, my PCP decided I needed VALIUM to "get over my gluten obsession". I had figured out, by keeping a food diary, that I had a problem with wheat, rye and barley. I didn't know what the cause was, but I knew for a fact it was making me ill. I was lucky. I found a pediatric allergist at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh who kept current on the research. He recognized that I had "gluten intolerance", as it was called then, and told me to go gluten free for life. He also recommended I find a new PCP. The reason why there's been an explosion in NCGS and celiac disease diagnoses is that doctors here have FINALLY started looking for it! Looking back at my own family, I can see that my paternal grandmother and my father had issues with gluten, but never knew what was wrong. One of their ancestor's death certificate lists the cause of death as "dyspepsia" (basically "indigestion"). Did the ancestor have celiac disease or NCGS? Who knows?

[@gutmicrobiomequeen]

@@terryjwood actually, that's not entirely true. There has been a genuine increase in both Celiac disease and NCGS, even in recent decades, in addition to an increased awareness. I don't know the citation off-hand, but there was a study 10-15 years ago where they compared ~4,000 blood samples from current military personnel to ~4,000 blood samples that were frozen from 20-30 years prior.

@@southernbreeze3278 Wheat, Barley, Rye, and Oats are the grains that contain gluten. Sorghum, Quinoa, Buckwheat, Amaranth, Teff, Corn, and Brown Rice are gluten free grains. Some Oats can be gluten free but some varieties do have some glutten in them. Are you the dullest pencil in the Box?

I love this channel!

Many pesticides affect the neurological systems of insects, and there is no reason to think that pesticides don't affect our own systems when we eat food sprayed with the stuff. It is reasonable to think that much of the anger and unpredictable behavior we see in people may be due in part to insecticides, in addition to the energy drinks, which have so much caffeine in them it will roast your brains.

سلام آقای دکتر آیا ناراحتی و غصه برای سلیاکی ها ضرر داره و دیر درمان می شوند ؟

[@midwesta-framer649]

Gluten free for 6 years and counting, due to psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Although my gut , skin, and joints have healed dramatically in this time, I still have issue no matter where my wheat is sourced from. I’ve experimented with the no glyphosate organic angle and my body still said nope. Still had a reaction. Yet it’s fine with all the gmo corn out there. Never had tests to determine what exactly my body is reacting to in wheat as my immune system is reactive to several other foods as well. I just stay away from whatever flares me up 🤷🏼‍♀️ Thank goodness my gut is ok with meats and most veggies. Thanks for the informative video!

They spray more that just wheat. For those who do not know.

I have diagnosed dermatitis herpetiformis and therefore coeliac, as medically proven. When I was diagnosed, I was never more than 50kg but after 2 years in a GF diet, my weight went up to 80kg, and then I had to lose some weight which was very difficult. I must maintain a very strict GF diet to stay well which is often difficult especially when I travel.

Great info 👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks Doc

There are plenty of gluten intolerant people in Europe too, unfortunately.

[@RedSntDK]

In fact, white people are more prone to getting it from my understanding. And unfortunately for women, they are more prone to getting celiac disease than men.

[@Nahtn]

Thats good, because I would like to move there and want there to be options

Hello. Could be sensitivity to other component of wheat or other grains. Greetings

Both are from glyphosate and so is peripheral neuropathy…….. I know I Had them ! All three and Now I don’t have anything I’m wonderfully pain free !!!

[@glen.simpson]

I suspect you are on to something......share more......what foods do you eat?

[@timgray5763]

@@glen.simpson I eat only what I prepare myself and I shop with rubber gloves. It’s a ghost if you don’t know what it is that’s hurting you it took me a year and a half to narrow down and pinpoint what it was that’s Crippling me. It’s in all wheat grains nuts seeds breads and all cereals on the supermarket shelves and most processed foods. Even in organically I found it and if you not allergic to it now you will be. Don’t go to doctors they know not what they do ! It’s in some wines and beers teas and anything that needs to be dried out. And if your not allergic you have no idea your eating it or not. Don’t believe in doctors because they don’t believe in me so I don’t trust anything out there mouth ! All cereal company’s used to use natural gas curing conveyors , now they have sprayers of Glyphosate Chemically drying people food. The highest glyphosate blood levels are the children eat oatmeal lucky harms Frosted Flakes granola all of it. You can’t wash it off of nuts flour asparagus banana peels your skin because we’re like nuts a cellular structure anything that’s wet and touches us starts to go inside immediately to your blood stream and this is one of the chemicals that has the ability to cross the blood brain barrier and I strongly believe this is the one also causing dementia, Parkinson’s and schizophrenia. Just like Benzine directly causes lymphoma or Hodgkin’s disease cancer of all 12 lymph nodes groups. You get this you better hurry up and unpack cause you not going to need anything anymore ! I make all of me and my dogs food on the weekends, hope this helps out ! Got to go hit me up I’ll explain more shyte.

[@glen.simpson]

this is why there is such a contrast between EU incidence of GF and earlier, and higher USA incidence. @CookieMonster_

[@glen.simpson]

tim, what foods do you?

[@emeraldstarsx]

Our GI doctor told us that celiac disease is NOT an allergy but rather an autoimmune disorder. So I’m thoroughly confused

[@alexanderlindquist]

im bloodtype 0+ have celiac and lactose intolerance

[@helanna9843]

I have diagnosed celiac. Can someone like me eat wheat in Europe without side effects?

[@MsMousepusher]

Noooo!.... But you will find food to suit you.

[@Tacocorp18]

Could these numbers be affected by under proofed bread? I was told in culinary school Improperly made breads or pizzas cause gas and bloating..?

[@PoetriiseStanzafyah]

Glad you mentioned pesticides 👍🏽

[@B_Ruphe]

Worth pointing out that w.r.t the spectrum of gluten content shown at 0.44, two other varieties of ancient wheat are even better than spelt (further to the right in the diagram), viz. emmer and einchorn. These are readily available from non-corporate sources in the Old World, both unmilled and as flour.

[@thewidowT]

How about crop rotation? It works!

One of my sisters has just been diagnosed with Coeliac disease. She was on a traditional diet of bread, meat, rice, potatoes and sugar, not much colour. I'm slightly gluten sensitive, so only eat traditional sourdough, but I think it's more that there are a ton of chemicals in retail bread. The sourdough from Woolworths is horrible, has a mile long list of ingredients, I dont even know how they are allowed to call it sourdough . Being plant based, and not always whole food, I eat gluten in many other forms, and I'm not in the US so the Round Up theory might be viable. I steer away from highly processed white gluten if I can though. My other sister has been on the Keto diet since it started, organic, natural etc, I don't think you can eat gluten there at all, and has just been diagnosed with esophageal cancer, calcified arteries and had a stroke.
