What’s the deal with gluten?

Gluten is a potent digestive toxin that wheat produces in its seeds to protect them from consumption by insects, fungus, and other animals. Not surprisingly it is not particularly good for you. A small portion of all people are celiacs – about 1% – although many have this condition and are undiagnosed. For them gluten is literally a life and death situation. If a celiac’s eats any gluten it causes a severe immune reaction that, over time, destroys the digestive tract. Many of these people are already on gluten-free diets. It is estimated that roughly 30% of all people have a bad reaction to gluten, but are not celiacs. This can manifest itself in many ways – poor digestion, obesity, auto-immune disease, and heart disease to name a few. There’s a good chance you suffer from gluten intolerance of some kind and don’t know it. Chances are you’ve been eating wheat your whole life. There’s really no way of knowing if being gluten-free will make a positive difference without eliminating it from your diet. Give it a try. You might be surprised how much better you feel.
