    Why giving up or reducing Wheat and gluten can improve your health
    Aside from the fact that a grain free diet is a low carb diet that should help you lose weight, what specific benefits are there from cutting wheat out of the diet? This is the question that the video covers. Books like wheat belly have enhanced the popularity of gluten free diets, but due to their very rapid increasing popularity, such diets have redeemed the status of "fad." Nutrition is always complicated, as the human body is - this topic is no different. I covered some of the reasons why cutting out gluten should evoke weight loss and improve health, especially gut health and conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, but there are actually a couple more reasons to avoid gluten not mentioned here.

    ★Correction: Please disregard the table shown at 4:09 as it doesn't actually present a significant difference in muscle & liver lipids in the control and gluten free mice. Based on the other findings in the study, the point that gluten could exacerbate insulin resistance, diabetes and fatty liver still stands.
    (The study suggests that gluten results in metabolic alterations in lipid and glucose metabolism in GF group instead reduction of lipid absorption.) You can read the full study here: [ www.medicinabiomolecular.com.b... ]

    I was struggling with eczema and skin rashes all my life. I was embarrassed of taking my shirt of at the beach or at pool parties with my friends. Spend so much money on all types of tropical eczema creams. Not even the doctors could help me. 4 years ago Did some research online and came across a low carb diet. I gave up all bread, pizza, pasta ect from my diet. Never looked back. My eczema and skin rashes went away and Never came back I am 40 years old now.

      Congratulations! Same experience here. At age 61 I developed horrible itching and redness around my eyes but the doctor said it couldn't be cured, only "managed." The hell with that. I did my own research and gave up wheat, sugar, and most dairy after a short-term fast (3 days). Itching and redness gone. The relief is indescribable. Often, the cure for a disorder is eliminating something, not adding something, but the profits in drugs, creams, and supplements are so huge.

      Hardly a trend, most traditional food was gluten-free accept for a small part of the world our bodies are not build for it. When you're hospitalised repeditively as a child it doesn't feel like trend. It's true that if the American doctor that was visiting my hospital when I was a 6-month old baby given 24 hours to live with the beginning stages of rickets due to malnutrition caused by celiac disease, it's true, I would be dead and not annoying people in restaurants, but when you've been given a second chance and the gift of life and a second chance, you may as well eat gluten-free food and get over it. Believe me eating gluten-free food in the 70s and 80s was not trendy it was just difficult and isolating, so if a few people have found removing gluten from their diet helps their tummies, all the better for me.....more choice and more awareness!

      100%. Besides, there is no such thing as gluten-free bread. Bread IS gluten. No gluten, no bread. On the one hand it’s a marketing scheme, as the term “gluten-free” derives from numbers the FDA essentially picked out of thin air. According to the agency, 20ppm or less of gluten in a product can be labeled as being “gluten-free.” So, you’re still eating gluten (at least potentially, depending on the product), just 20ppm or less. On the other hand, if you like bread, by fermenting the dough at least 12 hours the yeast will break down the gluten chain, making it tolerable in the body.

    I'm in a group with thousands of women who suffer from pcos who are adopting a gluten free diet in order to treat their pcos. Many, myself included have reported significant weight loss, reversing infertility, clearing acne, preventing or reversing near diabetes, improved mental health, energy, hair loss, and even irregular to non-existent cycles. It's crazy what a difference it makes even in those who show no sign of a sensitivity to gluten.

    I, unknowingly, suffered from IBS my entire life. Typically after eating a meal, which nearly always contained gluten of some sort, I had the painful need to evacuate usually within 30 minutes. My wife started taking note to what I was eating and how it affected me. It didn't take her long (1 day) to figure out it was gluten. I have been gluten free for about 4 months now and all I can say is I feel great. I've lost weight and I'm in better shape now than when I was in my 20's. However, the best thing is I can eat a meal now and not have to worry about being in the vicinity of a toilet. This is by far the best thing for my health I have ever done.

      You probably just have an allergy to the chemicals they spray the wheat with or towards something in the process of bleaching/refining the flour. If you were to grow wheat in a green house with a filtered air intake and all natural methods of cultivation(nothing processed, I.E no store bought fertilizer) then I would bet you'd tolerate the bread made from it just fine. People used to eat bread as a core of their diet yet they never had issues, for literal millennia. Only very recently did it start becoming an issue as people have begun purchasing flour and yeast from the stores . . .

    My personal experience:
    I've had severe hay fever since I was a child, and tried every natural remedy available since regular doctors and immume therapy couldn't help me... There were too many kinds of pollen that triggered my allergies they said. For me this meant largely living indoors in the months April-July.
    Two years ago I began developing other allergies: apples, hazlenuts, peanut butter... Hell, I became allergic to my own CAT. My girlfriend already was on a gluten free diet and I figured that I'd might as well join her. If it doesn't help it doesn't harm, right?
    Fast forward to the present, it's May, the absolute worst month for my hayfever - or it used to be, at least. I can go outside as much as I want, eat whatever I want, and have no complaints whatsoever. The only change I made was quitting gluten!

    As someone who has celiac I can tell you it's a nightmare. After you get off of it if you get cross contaminated your symptoms are worse because what little immunity you have is gone. You have to be careful because the stress and anxiety from worrying about getting cross contaminated is enough to make you sick. Alot more people have it than you think, by knowing all the symptoms very well first hand like I do makes it easy to point out people that have celiac or are even just sensitive to it.

    The thing about wheat in the western world is that it's not the same as the wheat our ancestors (even great grandparents) ate. Gluten intolerance and celiac aside, there has been a 100 fold increase in wheat lectin, due to selective breeding/GM to make wheat disease resistant. It's why that white bread might make you foggy but if you were to have a croissant in the south of France (where they use un-altered Durum wheat) you would be fine. It sounds vaguely tin-hattish, but proper bread goes hard and stale within a day; anything else is dubious and should probably be avoided.

    Fructans are indigestible sugars. Ever heard of lactose intolerance? Well the same thing happens to most people with fructans. Fructans are found in wheat (also onions and garlic).
    Eating fructans can cause a lot of GI issues, similar to how lactose can cause a lot of problems to someone with lactose intolerance.
    It is thought by dietitians that fructans are the biggest source of gastro-intestinal issues for western people (look up MONASH and the fodmap diet).
    As a result; if you suffer from gastro-intestinal issues; you should try limiting your wheat consumption for this reason (on top of the gluten, which can cause issues for people as well)

    It makes total sense that the rise in gluten allergy or sensitivity started when the manufacturers/farmers started cross breed and hybrids. Or what we even call GMOs in some cases. No one really thought it through what changing our food, and our bodies not being able to adapt to that change.
    I cannot eat wheat gluten at all. As in I start violently and continuously vomiting for hours if I get contaminated. I was diagnosed because my body had essentially stopped replenishing my blood supply that my body could use. My hemoglobin was 4.7 when I was diagnosed, my doctor had done a routine blood test and freaked. Like seriously freaked, I was admitted to the hospital at that very minute, given several blood transfusions and tests and scopes and all kinds of stuff.
    I can't cheat, not one tiny bit. So when I find out accidentally that twizzlers has wheat in it, and then laying on the floor, thinking I am dying (after healing form the damage to my intestines by wheat gluten), I have found I have to inspect everything, every minute ingredient. No label goes unread. Even if it has no "wheat" on the label, barley and malt (used as additives for cheap flavor additive for chocolate in candy bars, especially) are just as deadly to me as eating bread, or pancakes or soy sauce, which also has wheat in it.
    But has the world of science learned form any of this? Has it decided that when it comes to changing human food sources, even with the best of intentions, to be super careful and really research the cause to effect on those changes and how it affects our human bodies? Nope. Do not be surprised if the next thing humans are going to find ourselves unable to eat will be corn and born products.
    I can't eat out, because people do not understand how serious wheat gluten allergy (not intolerance) but allergy is and as deadly as any other kind of poison to the human body.
    And yes, chicken wings dipped in flour is considered gluten contaminated to those of us who cannot eat it. Seriously.
    But at least some fast food restaurants are starting to learn how to not cross contaminate food, when the workers are diligent and care if they are hurting others. So not all is lost.

    tested for celiac and i do not have it , but I had the thought maybe I'm sensitive to wheat ,it's amazing how just cutting out the wheat my health has improved ... ( My diet consisted of alot wheat products ).
    A few family members of mine have a wheat sensitivity as well.
    I won't be switching my diet to gluten free but I will be reducing the amount of wheat I consume ...

      Bunny button the symptoms of non-celiac gluten sensitivity can be much worse than those of celiac. I too have it, I get dizzy for a day, terrible body aches, fever, chills, sweats, brain fog, nausea, motor coordination issues. It usually lasts for 3 days if I get hit accidentally. But when I stay on the right path I’m back to my normal physically active self. It’s almost like getting the flu. It’s terrible. Ironically, when I am in Europe (Germany) on vacation, I can eat bread with dinner and have ZERO symptoms. I come home and have the crumb of a crouton fall in my salad at the salad bar and I am sick for days. I strongly believe it has less to do with the gluten and more to do with how the crops are grown and prepared, yet I have no data to substantiate this claim. I hope one day we find out.

  • @d4mdcykey
    @d4mdcykey 4 роки тому +6

    Just last year I was diagnosed with this issue at 56-years-old. My story may help others so here goes: After a lifetime of eating gluten products (breads, pastas, etc) I began getting a weird pressure or pain in my left side, occasional bloated gut, constipation, and digestive issues. Like most people I just started eating antacids and figured it was just 'something I ate' and ignored it. Then it got worse and persistent, so I had a multitude of tests and checkups, and after spending a ridiculous amount of money and time, they found... nothing, no known cause. I also had the occasional 'brain fog' and blurred vision in one eye.
    Then I started getting regular rashes on my elbows, upper back/shoulder, buttocks. At first this was thought to be shingles, because the rashes look quite similar but I often got the rash on both sides of the body at once which is extremely rare with shingles; eventually this was given a "unlikely" diagnosis. Someone suggested I get a blood test or skin biopsy around the rash to test for an antibody called immunoglobulin A (IgA). Turns out I had dermatitis herpetiformis (also called called Duhring’s disease or gluten rash).
    At this point I went on a gluten-free diet and things improved, up to a point. Not really mentioned in this video it is not only wheat, it's also rye and barley. What I did not know at the time is there is gluten added to many foods I still ate, and I also was not checking labels on food as to the PROCESSING of food, i.e. I ate alot of mixed nuts, but right there on the can it states "Processed in same facilities as wheat, milk...", so the symptoms would flare up again and I could not figure out the cause. So if you go on this diet you have to check everything otherwise even tiny trace amounts can set you back down to zero on healing your immune system, and you have to start all over. Some people have very positive results within a few weeks, others it takes at least 12 months or 2-3 years for your system to restore itself, so keep this in mind. It is a long game, not a quick fix.
    While some people with DH typically don’t have any of the intestinal symptoms, 80 percent or more of people with DH still have intestinal damage, especially if they eat a diet that’s high in gluten, and this can cause a wide range of very serious health consequences, including: thin enamel of teeth, lactose-intolerant, irritable bowel syndrome, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, osteoporosis, lymphoma, infertility, bowel cancers, nervous system disorders, liver/gall bladder/pancreas conditions, etc. etc.
    Given that a great many of these conditions are misdiagnosed as to cause, and therefore are not properly treated and either get worse or people start taking expensive medications with dangerous side effects, I think this IgA test should be standard practice in medical facilities now. At least once you know you have it, you can make changes that improve the conditions or they can even disappear entirely after an extended time on gluten-free. I will say here that not one, but TWO doctors openly scoffed at my suggestion of what I thought I had, they both essentially said "celiac disease is overblown and so rare it's not worth testing for... but here take these drugs for whatever you really have". A study performed in 2019 found an overwhelming number of doctors that either knew next to nothing about this condition, or they think it is a "fad", and so misdiagnosis is very common.
    If you have any of these complications mentioned above, GET THE IgA TEST, just to know, and it may save you a lifetime of increasingly deteriorating conditions and a comprised quality of life. Even if you have no noticeable symptoms _yet_ get the test anyway the next time you have a checkup, it's not that much cost and... why not? You may be able to get ahead of it before it rears its ugly head.

    I know anecdotes suck for science, but to add mine:
    I love wheat-based foods and desserts, but about ten years ago, I started to develop severe bowel problems (constipated for days, then diarrhea). It wasn't until maybe four years ago that a friend of mine convinced me to try to stop eating wheat (I mentioned this to my doctor and she said it'd be worth trying). After a couple of weeks of no-wheat I was feeling great and, so long as I kept myself from eating wheat, I wasn't having the bowel issues I had before.
    Of course, being that I love pasta, cakes, brownies, and all manner of other things made from wheat, I occasionally fall off the wagon. If I only have a small amount, I'm mostly fine, but if I have a couple of slices of pizza or eat something like that several days in a row, even in small amounts, I end up with the aforementioned constipation and discomfort. I weigh myself pretty much daily, and what I've found is that I'll gain around 6lbs during these episodes, but it'll be gone within a week, which tells me I'm holding a lot of extra water weight.
    So as much as I'd rather it not be the case, I shouldn't eat wheat, though I can get away with an occasional piece of cake or whatnot.
