So the same researcher who "discovered" gluten sensitivity for non-celiac patients has debunked his own work with nothing less than a rigorous application of science. His conclusion: perceived sensitivity to gluten is triggered by other factors including psychological cause. Approximately 1% of adults have a gluten allergy, known as celiac disease. So what's this say about the 18% of people who currently eat a gluten-free diet? Here's the article:

There's a new book - Grain Brain. It's all the rage. Apparently within 4 weeks, they can "keep your brain healthy, vibrant, and sharp while dramatically reducing your risk for debilitating neurological diseases as well as relieving more common, everyday conditions - without drugs."

Hey - Dr. Oz endorses it. It's good enough for me. I hope that wine is on the diet, though, or I won't buy it and let it sit on my shelf unread (like all the other healthy living books I own).

I like all these healthy books, I keep them filed under "How to Start a Stupid Food and Diet Mythology and Make Big Bucks"

A woman I know is really pushing "Isagenix," which is a multi-level marketing company that makes self-professed "health" shakes.

The company funded a study that, amazingly enough, found that its products ARE healthy.

As an anorexo-dyslexic mother of 7 autistic children, a third of whom are gluten-intolerant, and half of whom have peanut allergies, I am concerned about gluten in vaccines, and how magnetic fields from power lines are affecting my childrens' ADHD and dyslexia: Should I take them off carbs entirely?
