Celiac Disease -- Real or Fad?


Celiac -- real or a fad?

Celiac Disease is real. And those with autoimmune diseases should avoid gluten foods. Vitiligo and Celiac Disease share a gene. Same disease, two names. For those who have other autoimmune diseases, a correlation between consuming gluten foods and milk products shows a real danger to health when consuming wheat and other gluten grains, as well as milk and its by-products.

In Naturopathy, it is long known that wheat is not a health food. Wheat produces acid in the blood. For health, the blood should be more alkaline than acidic. All animal products are acid producing, whereas whole plant-based foods in their natural state, including citrus, are alkaline producing foods.

For health, choose gluten-free grains such as brown rice, quino and buckwheat as well as almond milk, coconut milk and hemp milk products. Your body will produce less inflammation and inflammation is fuel for diseases.

We offer body butter kits for vitiligo, eczema, anti-aging, dry skin, scar tissue, customized by request.

The Celiac Connection - But we didn't call it that back then.

27 years ago, two naturally oriented MD's removed all grains except rice from my son's diet. He was sick, doped up with steroids and antibiotics, and dying. My daughter and grandson cannot tolerate these foods either. Their genetic makeup is pretty much identical. Eczema, asthma, severe allergies, failure to thrive, etc, all tend to improve on a gluten free plan of action. We didn't call it Celiac Disease or gluten intolerance back then, but these two medically trained holistic docs knew thier stuff. They switched my son from cow's milk to goat's milk. I had to stop breastfeeding because I was pregnant with my daughter, and the new pediatrician recommended diet sucked the life out of my son. The simple dietary changes started to reverse diseases that have plagued my family and my husband's family for generations. Later, (mid '80s), a pediatrician in Connecticut did $10,000 in testing on my son and found he was lacking many enzymes needed to break down proteins in many foods. My newborn daughter was exactly the same. Genetics are very much at work here, as I've theorized and supported with research in my support group for decades. Now, there is scientific evidence to prove it, beyond the world of health enthusiasts. An illimination diet is the way to go with autoimmune, degenerative or any disease, because all disease feeds and thrives on inflammation. I not only illiminate gluten foods. I also eliminate high allergy foods such as corn and milk. I always encourage extensive allergy testing for clients as well. My kids/grandson are allergic to all fish/seafood, all nuts, eggs, milk and many environmental allergies. I also encourage and take allergy shots.
