I got this book from the library. Very interesting..especially when he said that wheat raises your blood sugar faster than eating a spoonful of sugar!

The genetic modification they've done to wheat makes it such a non-healthy food I wonder why all of the nutritionists and Dr.s think it should be such a big part of a healthy diet?

A very interesting read. There are a few people in my life that I wish I could force to read this book. LOL

Thank you very much for posting this, after watching it I went on to find longer videos of a lecture by Dr. Davis (in 2 parts) in which he explains everything in more detail and I've just posted them to my FB wall and also to my sister's wall because our father was a celiac and my sister never took it seriously and fed him wheat whenever he wanted it and as a result he died a very sad death. She now has like at least 2 AI illnesses and all her children are not healthy either, one with digestive issues supposedly diagnosed as "Crohn's Disease". We all need to raise consciousness so this nonsense of GM foods stops! The moment I read years ago that today's wheat is not the wheat "of the Bible" I immediately suspected that was the reason why so many people are now having trouble with it and that video has confirmed it for me.

And, holy cow! Two slices of whole wheat bread have a higher GI index than a Snickers bar! And for years that's what I ate thinking it was "good" for me, yeah right! No wonder I've always dropped weight whenever I stopped eating that c***, even last night a male friend told me at a party "You've lost weight!" I'm not remotely on a weightloss diet, so I had not even noticed although, come think of it, I fit into some clothes I'd not worn for many months and during my last wheat indulgence back in February I quickly gained back 10-15 lbs. I'd lost last year (after I stopped eating wheat once before...). So I feel pretty encouraged thinking that this time I'll continue to lose and achieve my final goal because I "ain't" touching that stuff ever again, so help me God!

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.

      @plumbago They appear as boils. They are big, like the size of a nickel--quarter, and they hurt when I touch them. I have gone to the same derm for them over and over and she thinks my body is colonized by a bacteria, but even after using hibiclens all over my body they come back.

      Welcome to the gluten-free community! It’s great to have you here. While gluten sensitivity or celiac disease can indeed cause skin issues, such as dermatitis herpetiformis (a blistering rash), abscesses in areas like the lower buttocks or thighs are less commonly linked directly to gluten. However, chronic abscesses could be a sign of an underlying immune or inflammatory condition, which might be worth discussing with a healthcare professional. Some people with gluten-related disorders also experience secondary issues like bacterial overgrowth or immune dysregulation, which could potentially contribute to recurrent infections. It’s always a good idea to explore all possible causes, including gluten sensitivity, with your doctor. In the meantime, keeping a food and symptom diary might help identify any patterns. Wishing you the best on your health journey!

      You say you have gluten sensitivity? Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or do you refer to NCGS?
