Another reason to stay away from fast foods.

"...the heavy use of corn in the U.S. food supply has been linked with obesity related to the availability of cheap, low-nutrient food," said Cynthia Sass, a nutritionist in New York City.

This does not suprise me. If you think about it, they feed cows corn to fatten them up.

The only time I have stepped foot into a fast food joint in the las 20 years was to use their bathroom. But I know a lot of folks do eat fast food. And if you have a corn issue....it isnt a good idea.

I stopped eating conventional (non-organic) meat after I saw the movie "Life and Debt." I decided I didn't want to be part of a system that exploits people and animals in such a horrible way. (The segment about chickens is at the end of the movie... but the whole thing is very thought-provoking).

And... now I have even more reasons to avoid that kind of food :P

      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.

      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.

      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.

      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.
