Cyliac is uncommon, but most people who suffer any kind of gastointestinal problems can solve them by cutting out wheat. I have had psoriosis (skin problem) for 23 years and it wasn’t until I stopped eating wheat, dairy, sugar, and caffeine that I brought it under control without steroids. And yes, the food I eat is delicious and satisfying, and it didn’t take long to adjust.

Wheat and cow’s milk is hard for humans to digest. Gluten in grains like spelt is more fragile and breaks down much better, and cow’s milk is very different chemically than human milk, which is why many people who are sensitive to dairy can still have goat or sheeps milk. The problem is that most people don’t know they are effected until they change their diet.

i don’t reject vegan foods out of hand, but i’m always confused as to why they say lactose and gluten are common allergens when so few people are actually affected by them. lactose intolerance is one of the biggest myths bestowed on the american people, and i really don’t get it. cyliac’s disease also only affects a tiny percentage of the population.
