A Beautiful Truth

Hey all, I watched simply one of the most amazing movies last night. It was called THE BEAUTIFUL TRUTH. It explains the injustice of our food and drug administration and talks about DR. MAX GERSON who cured many many diseases through the implimentation of proper foods. One such food that was never talked about being good was WHEAT. I finished the movie and couldnt help but actually feel like my Celiacs was a blessing in disguise. We simply cannot eat most processed crap because most of it contains gluten. Human beings were not actually meant to eat mass quantities of anything processed, if at all. In in response nature has created man new diseases one of which is CELIACS DISEASE. We arent the victims here, everybody else is.

Here are some links that you may want to read about.

and P.S.- After Dr. Gerson published his book on curing cancer by food implementation, he was poised with Arsenic and died. Nice eh?

Celiac is not a new disease. It is believed to be described in the Bible as the wasting disease. During the food shortages of World War Two, children starving in Belgium who actually had Celiac Disease health improved. It was the groundbreaking proof of the gluten free diet as the cure for Celiacs.

I could not agree more.

And thank you so much for suggesting this documentary. I went and watched it just now and it was incredibly moving. Brought me to tears a couple of times. There are some other ones on Netflix that are similar and I would recommend: "Food, Inc." and "Food Matters." I think EVERYONE should watch them, even those who are healthy in every way. They are about our world and how we are shaping it.

I have Super Size Me on netflix right now in the background while I'm cleaning (and taking computer break)...and it's making me thank God that I cannot eat that stuff. I"m going to check that documentary. Very interesting point.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
