Gluten facts-I beat the press!

----Posted on my twitter feed this week this amazing, clear article on gluten-"50 Shades of Gluten (Intolerance)"
----Ahead of the times I was again, because Friday morning the Today show ran a segment on gluten free diets.
 

BUT! If you don't have the time to read the article take one thing away, which is that there are a variety of proteins in gluten and the gluten test does not test for them all, so a 30 day self-test, on your own, of how you feel without gluten can give you clearer answers if your test results come up negative. 

----Also on the show they advised rice because it's gluten free BUT as written in this article gluten free grains such as corn, oats and rice, contain proteins that are "similar" enough in structure to gluten to elicit an immune response. THAT IS QUITE IMPORTANT.
      The more knowledge the better educated healthy choices!
