To Gluten or not to Gluten

I am in the process of reading this book to better help some of my patients. The book is called GLUTEN-FREE Quick and Easy by Carol Foster, Ph.D.

After reading the startling facts in this book, myself and some of my office staff are preparing for a Gluten Free lifestyle.
We see all kinds of patients in my office that are suffering with Chronic Pain, Fibromyalgia, Auto-Immune disorders, Autism, ADD/ADHD. Once we get their lab reports back we have been noticing that 94% of these patients have a sensitivity to Gluten.

Specific Conditions for a Gluten Free Diet

---Celiac Disease can lead to the development of other auto-immune disorders as well as Osteoporosis, Infertility, Neurological conditions, according to the university of Chicago Celiac Disease Disease Program.

The Center for Celiac research at the University of Maryland shows that approximately one person in 133 in the United States has Celiac Disease.

According to the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network about 12 million Americans suffer from food allergies and wheat is one of the top eight food allergens

A gluten free diet is also used by some people suffering with Multiple Sclerosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lupus.

A gluten-free diet is a diet completely free of ingredients derived from gluten-containing cereals: wheat (including kamut and spelt), barley, rye, and triticale, as well as the use of gluten as a food additive in the form of a flavoring, stabilizing or thickening agent. It is recommended amongst other things in the treatment of coeliac disease, non-coeliac gluten intolerance, dermatitis herpetiformis, migraines, Lyme disease and wheat allergy. Additionally, the diet may exclude oats. Some people for whom the diet is recommended can tolerate oat products and some medical practitioners say they may be permitted, but there is some controversy about including them in a gluten-free diet because studies on the subject are incomplete."The Gluten-Free Diet" ? CeliacSociety.com Even if oats are included, it is important to source these from a facility that isgluten free, as most oats are contaminated during processing. Look for oats which are certified gluten free if you are following a gluten free diet.

Chronic Pain in Tampa Bay, Florida by Dr. Martin Willmitch

What is Chronic Pain?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chronic pain is defined as pain that persists longer than the temporal course of natural healing, associated with a particular type of injury or disease process.^[1]

The International Association for the Study of Pain defines pain as "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage."^[2] Pain is subjective in nature and is defined by the person experiencing it, and the medical community's understanding of chronic pain now includes the impact that the mind has in processing and interpreting pain signals.
