What do you think of Gluten? I'm interested to hear what you think!

[lukase]

People with a gluten free diet have to avoid almost all types of fast food other than fries. This causes most of them to automatically choose healthier alternatives. Sometimes just having to think about your diet can have positive results. Most people sadly do not care about their diet unless it's january and they want to loose fat.

The level of research that went into this must have been off the wall! Thanks a tonne for a well made and easy to understand video. Earned a sub.

Funny that going gluten-free can make you deficient in iron. Why is that? The opposite happened to me. I went gluten-free due to IBS symptoms & hashimotos, and my iron (ferritin) went from zero to totally normal. True, its possible that I am an undiagnosed coeliac but for sure it’s helped me absorb nutrients better.

I have been gluten free for years after pain in my lower stomach. Turns out I just ran to hard . I was struggling with gaining muscle in the gym and kinda depressed. I brought back gluten and my mood was lifted and I can lift more weight. Every one is different.

Me and the other people who have Celiac Disease: *Yes*

[freeminds]

In Northern Indian plains people have wheat as their staple diet since thousands of years and they have been leading a normal healthy life with respect to stomach as long as they live. Currently I am in South India where wheat is not eaten and I am suffering from stomach problems, so doctors have advised me to avoid wheat. Now that I am eating rice both the time, I am badly missing my wheat flour Roti. I madly want my stomach to be healthy again so that I can return to my normal diet which includes wheat flour Roti.

Like your videos. Easy to understand and informative. A video about whether iron deficiency and hair loss would be interesting

[uditbhattacharjee]

Great informative and to the point video

[SteveRayDarrell]

I think there's so much junk in our food that it becomes really hard to conduct research about it. How do we know it's not the various chemicals used as herbicides or to kill bugs that are intoxicating us? We've come to the point that everything is so contaminated that removing anything from your diet will benefit you! Great video by the way

I have celiac disease that was diagnosed in 2013 after two years of treatment for multiple sclerosis, which I do not have but first degree relatives do. The infusion I was given was chemotherapy, also used to treat bone marrow cancer and prostate cancer, which I also do not have.
I am short and thin; I experienced delayed puberty, thyroid deficiency, tooth decay, IgA deficiency, anemia, depression, osteoarthritis.
First degree relatives passed away from breast cancer, diabetes, mitral valve prolapse, miscarriages, endometriosis, Parkinson’s and multiple sclerosis. I see the connections. I am 71 and I take a supplement specifically for celiacs. It’s called CeliAct that seems to be helpful.
Wheat is also found in beauty products, detergents, soap, seasoning mixtures (use individual seasonings). I was previously doing well on the gluten free diet u til I inadvertently ingested wheat/barley/rye about 6-8 months ago. It will take time now for the gut to heal, but at least I know what happened and what to do (hopefully).
Any thoughts or tips from my fellow celiacs? Doctors?

Was too late when I discovered this :(

[mymentakab]

Well research & scholarly information. Hope for more videos.

I was hoping to hear the correlation between gluten and eczema
