Even if I didn't have celiac but had read the Wheat Belly book I would have stopped eating gluten, regardless. Yes, it is a huge change and more work, eating gluten free. Read the book and you will see how many illnesses and diseases are now thought to be caused by modern gluten. What is "modern gluten"? It comes from wheat that has been treated with chemicals for higher yields. Personally, the idea of consuming Roundup really makes me sick.
Do you buy or bake bread that is gluten free? If so, what brand have you found that tastes best to you?
