Many people I've seen in my clinic say that they feel better for being gluten free, little do they know that they are most probably still consuming wheat though in trace amounts, and they are most probably consuming a small amount of gluten to some degree. It is almost impossible not to consume gluten these days, because it is included in such a wide variety of foods.
Many people I’ve seen in my clinic say that they feel better for being gluten free, little do they know that they are most probably still consuming wheat though in trace amounts, and they are most probably consuming a small amount of gluten to some degree. It is almost impossible not to consume gluten these days, because it is included in such a wide variety of foods. I’ve also seen many who certainly feel a lot better when they avoid gluten. Is it because their digestive system has become compromised, and they can no longer tolerate gluten though?
It is possible however to avoid bread, pasta and the obvious gluten containing foods, and many who just cut out 90%+ of gluten from their diet will notice a big improvement in digestive health in particular. But certainly not all, in fact, I’ve helped many patients back into eating bread and foods containing gluten – after their digestive problems were sorted.
