Ha ha ha. So today I was watching something on TV about fad diets. Aparently, this "miracle diet" called the "blood type diet" is getting rave reviews. Based on your blood type you eat a certain amount of vegis, types of meat, etc.

But each blood type diet is wheat free and dairy free!!

Um..... duh?

I nearly fell off the couch I was laughing so hard!! Hope this brightens your day like it has mine!

I was on a "fad" diet not too long ago that eliminated milk and wheat. (I choose it because it didn't push low fat milk this and low fat milk that - that was before I started really questioning wheat) In the FAQ they had the question as to why they were eliminated. The creator of the diet recognized through his research that those 2 create many seen and unseen problems for people. I found that to be very interesting!

It's true, guten and casein are not really meant to be consumed by humans. Our evolution didn't include wheat and cow's milk, so our bodies have a tough time with it. The Blood Type Diet is actually supposed to be pretty legit. At least that's what I heard.

I have to disagree with the statement about the Blood Type Diet being a fad. It's been around for over 10 years.

It also allows dairy and wheat and other gluten grians such as rye, spelt, barley ect. depending on your blood type. So they didn't have their facts quite right. <_<

I do agree however that the gluten grains and dairy are not really good for anyone. :)

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks @Beverage for checking in!  I haven't changed the dogs' food yet.  I'm still working through some of the other issues that I need to remedy (transitioning to an anti-inflammatory diet, being sure to get only gluten-free certified items, and buying some new cookware for my kitchen).  Somewhere after that, I have on my list to try out the dogs on a new dog food, but I haven't gotten there yet.  In the meantime, though, I can definitely see that some of my worst days seem to follow when there's a possibility of gluten cross-contamination (I'm still working to cut waaay down on these instances) OR when I eat anything with dairy/ milk protein in it.  So I think I need to really get a better handle on my day-to-day eating habits to reduce all gluten cross-contamination into my food and also any dairy intake, and then at that point, I think I'll start moving over to the dog food thing.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      I don't think you have the URL/site address correct, as there is nothing at that site.

      Hello All I am traveling to Germany in October and will be in Berlin, Rothenburg ODT , Salzburg, Fussen and Munich.  I am also driving the northern part of the romantic road with stops in some of the smaller towns along the way.  I would really appreciate any recommendations for gluten-free friendly places, restaurants and any gluten-free beer gardens.  Thanks in advance, Laura
