Wheat has been getting a bad rap lately. Many folks are experimenting with the gluten-free diet, and a best-selling book called Wheat Belly has helped drive a lot of the interest. "Wheat is the most destructive thing you could put on your plate, no ...

Didn't think this report was particularly good. Have to wonder how many of these studies are funded by the wheat industry. No one wants to rock the boat    other than a few people like W Davis who is then branded. Its getting to be like the GMO issue and in a sense it is related. If Borlaug had not modified the wheats in the 60s  to contain 14 times the gluten  would we all be having these problems? Funny how the French didnt accept the American  wheat and have much less of a problem than their neighbors.

I was there.  I heard the presentations.  The wheat does not contain more gluten.  Its not "GMO" in the sense that many are using the term these days.  Its a hybrid.  If you read the article and the research it is linked to, it states that there is not more gluten in the dwarf hybrid of wheat.

Did you read  wheat Belly? I'll try to find the link for the Aussie study saying  14 times the gluten ..    Using  gmo in this contest  was  discussed at a conference im  at today.  Its all semantics.  cross pollination  can or cant be considered  GMO  and the  letters are used to prove points on either side of that issue.  Borlaugs wheats are not transgentic but they were modified genetically.

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
