[…] 7) Gluten Free I could care less about how ‘trendy’ this topic has become. And yes, most people going ‘gluten free’ are still eating ‘gluten free’ crap. I have been gluten free for almost 12 years, and there are many good reasons why most people may want to avoid it. The Case Against Gluten: For Everyone […]

I was diagnosed with NHL (non-Hodgkins Lymphoma) 2 years ago this October. Two months after the diagnosis, I went gluten free…and not only did an array of symptoms disappear, but my largest tumor shrank. A lot! I have a family history of varied auto-immune disorders…and I am really quite convinced that my gluten intolerance led to lymphoma. I do not have celiacs & was “tested” for that. I just wish there was more testing on this connection between cancer and gluten intolerance. Most oncologists that I have spoken to are simply not that convinced of this causality. I know that I feel entirely different going gluten free…and I feel (as 52 years young) that I will beat this cancer, especially by not aggravating my immune system with an easily avoidable food group.

I disagree with your “talk to your
physician” comment. I have struggled for ten years with horrible symptoms
that have disappeared with my gluten-free diet. I have seen two physicians,
two Rheumatologist, two neurologist and not one of them every suggested a
gluten sensitivity problem for my issues. I figured it out on my own. Never
underestimate a person’s ability to listen to their own body!!

This comment perfectly represents outdated understandings of gluten’s negative impact on human health. The advice to “talk to your physician” is simply bad. Researchers in the field in 2012 do not even fully understand the extent of the problems caused by gluten. Guiding people to practitioners, many of whom received their training in the 70s and 80s, is naive at best.

Reactions to gluten are not a binary “you have it or you don’t” thing… it’s a spectrum, and presents in ways very different from the paradigm you’re steeped in. This post is over a year old, and in that time, MORE research has been published that supports my position and relegates your position to the cloudy past.

This is such crap! All of your research studies are about people who are gluten senstive or intolerant. None of them are about people who AREN’T. Bottom Line: talk to your physician. You can’t self-diagnose, and if you’re not gluten sensitive, there is NO reason to avoid it. Another sad case of media sensationalism….poor showing, Andrew – you’re contributing to the media hype. But for those people who are gluten senstive or have celiac disease, check out http://www.glutenfree.com!!!
