The information in the excerpt was not new to me, as I had already come to believe that the way the food is processed today is not like the food I ate as a child. After the modification, the flour a person purchases now is not like the flour we used 50 or 60 years ago.
Living gluten and wheat free has given me a new life. No longer in pain and no longer spending time at doctors and in the bathroom. I usually don't waste time wishing for something, but I often do wish I had known about my allergy to wheat, rye, barley while I was raising my children. It would have been amazing to be their mom and feeling as healthy and strong and pain free as I do now.
I have ordered the book "Grain Brain" from Amazon and will be sharing it with my friends after I read it.
I remember your wheat belly posts. Glad to hear it's still working for you!
ReplyDeleteit is amazing the difference in the kids i work with that are gluten free now....so i am def a believer...will check that book...
ReplyDeleteI am still wheat free, but I eat rye without problems. Yes, it looks like a book I should read. I read the excerpt and it sounds very interesting. Hugs to you!
ReplyDeleteMy problem has never been "what" I eat but rather how much. But I do experience a few digestive problems that are making me consider studying up on the gluten issue.
ReplyDeleteI've had others as well as you sing the praises of gluten-free. I've cut back on the gluten, but haven't quite made it to "freedom". I'll get there!
ReplyDeleteThis is quite a testimonial; I'm glad you've found some answers.
