Looking For Answers Re: Proteins And Grain Varieties

I'm wondering if anyone knows of any research into what glyco-proteins are in some of the wild varieties of wheat, rye, or barley, and whether these are similar enough to those in cultivated varieties to be an issue.

I know (well, I know NOW) that wild barley all contain "polypeptides similar to the two major hordein groups of cultivated barley," B- and C- Hordein.

( Open Original Shared Link )

I'm just wondering if anyone knows, at all, if these similarities are of the kind that could pose a problem.

I know that varieties of wheat that are a problem vary by genus. And the wild barley that, it turns out, is growing in a corner of my yard, varies from cultivated barley by genus. Foxtail barley - grows all over the place in North America as a weed, it looks like.

I'm hoping very much that wild varieties differ enough from cultivated barley that it's not even an issue, but I don't think I've ever seen much on uncultivated grain varieties and celiac disease. Never even thought of it before.

Has anyone else? Any botanists want to weigh in?

I'm now curious as all heck, honestly!

      Is AG1 safe for Celiacs??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By nataliallano · Posted

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Chest pain from celiac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
