Despite the fact that celiac disease impacts one per cent of Canadians, and up to six per cent being gluten sensitive, the gluten-free diet has gained popularity as celebrity 'authorities' and those promoting fad diets make unfounded weight loss claims.

This is a press release from what traces back to the wheat lobby pushing changes in the school lunch program so they can continue to get U.S. Federal Ag subsidies and have product placement in a captive market.

By the way, there goes Shelley Case, "registered dietician" again, trying to have her status as "the" gluten free expert and pushing the wheat-eating at the same time. <_<

That was titled at the SacBee to a press release, btw, from the "Healthy Grains Institute" which is an alleged non profit. (which is seeking funding from entities like Cargill ? get real) I am having trouble with the google search engine on finding a website for this "HGI," the only thing I've found is a pdf download from the "grainsforhealth.org" which details their yearly meeting, which, when studied, shows they are just another wheat lobby trying to get more wheat into schoolchildren under the guise of it is going to be "healthier," see here:

      Awful terrible burning pains recently. Got suicidal thoughts from this crap yet again. I'm going to try doing low carb again as meat and veg type food has in the past reduced it. This is doing my head in.

      Current careteam is still up in the air about my celiac thanks to me googling "celiac specialist" what popped  up was once known as a good name hospital back in the days. I went in for answers for my declining health, it was the autoimmune part that did me in, being a former bus driver.I read that in my medical records so easily downplayed, i refused the gluten challenge! Why the hell would I eat Gluten when im Celiac coming to them for answers when my body is falling apart? Glutenfree since 1994. They did unnecessary colonoscopy KNOWING im glutenfree. A celiac specialist would know that would be pointless to do if not eating gluten and it was done!Im so angery with that hospital for not explaining celiac disease and withholding information, Downplaying my ailments , mental distress,  causing more health issues, ect. All this could have been avoided If medical records were sent, when asked, explained and done properly. Im so angery.I do have the celiac dietitian on here in June and linked her up to my current health care yesterday, fingers crossed hopefully with that, the understanding of celiac is explained it's not just a food allergy will be understood.
