As I read up on Celiac disease I realize I need to get diagnosed asap. Can you tell me more about the "wheat belly"? Other than my extremely round and often bloated belly I am happy with my body.

It is about what is in wheat and dairy that we have to worry about. Nobody should eat wheat or dairy if they want to stay healthy. Too many toxins in each. Barry:

I learn more and more informations on almost every type of food we consume that is unhealthy in one way or the other. Eventually I suppose everything would come under this category and I wonder if there would be anything left out to eat without having to worry. Hi,

We'd call it a sensible vice. Cheryl, if you must eat bread, that’s probably your best alternative. We’d call it a sensible vice.

Personally, I have suffered for many years with complications associated with celiac disease, but was never diagnosed or tested for the disease. On a positive note, I began the diet almost three months ago and now feeling much better and experiencing an increased level of energy and stamina. The diet has dramatically changed my abilities to control my blood sugar levels. Thanks to everyone in the celiac support group, the wonderful doctors and nurses who have been the utmost supportive.

I wouldn't be surprised if were to gluten. Have you tried going a few months with no grains? Lisa,

This does occur within 3-6 hours of eating but eating wheat bread or drinking a beer actually makes me feel better! The doctors can't find anything wrong other than to say I have a "redundant colon" (extra length of colon) which may cause constipation. Is it possible I am gluten intolerant or would I know by having a reaction to wheat or beer? I very frequently get a throbbing pain that extends from 1.5″ above my navel to about 2″ below the navel.

Don't know about that, Cheryl. Although one of our mutual friends might disagree with me here (DK), some fungus is definitely edible while some is deadly toxic. It helps to know the difference :-) RO is both edible and has been shown to remove neurotoxins from certain legumes. A number of studies indicate that its use in making tempeh is quite safe.
