Thousands of people thought they were depressed, went on mind-altering meds; but what they really had was a gluten allergy. This is only between last 1-2 decades. Food is making people sick, and they are on antidepressants instead of altering their diet. I think this is a leading factor to why so many feel so good on a Keto diet.
Remove the gluten, don't take pills for something that has nothing to do with it! In 2018, the vast majority of doctors don't believe people are reacting to the food they eat. In America, you take pills so you can keep on eating the shit they sell you.
@@hadidawani6644 You should definitely research the effects of gluten sensitives. There are videos by doctors right here on UA-cam explaining it........
Well said, I had no idea it was gluten making me depressed this whole time. I had a gluten free burger for the first time last week and for the first time in my life, I didn’t have that bloated/ depressive feeling afterwards. I ate it and felt... great! For the past week by being gluten free, my legs aren’t achey and tingling, I don’t feel depressed, I don’t feel lethargic, I don’t have brain fog, and I’m not constantly constipated anymore either. I can’t believe I wasn’t self-aware enough to realise it was the gluten doing this to me. I just thought there was something wrong with my mental health. I can’t stress how much I highly recommend anybody to try a gluten-free diet, or just notice their change in mental/ physical well-being immediately after consuming gluten-rich food to see if it is actually the gluten doing this to them instead of something else. I was actually one of those people who ridiculed others for it being a fad as well. Oh how wrong I was!
Thank you so much for clearing this up. I'm so sick and tired of being called hypochondriac or worse, whenever I tell others that consumption of even the tiniest amounts of gluten makes me seriously ill.
All I know is that Keto is the way to go. I might have a gluten, carb or wheat intolerance/ allergy or even celiac but after 7 years no doctor has given me a clear answer to my million health issues. It took 3 months of strict Keto for me to start to feel my best after 26 years. I can’t imagine going back to the way I used to eat. Anyway, thank you for the videos. They are seriously amazing! Just the perfect amount of information :) I was wondering if you can make a video on carb blockers and your take on that. Thanks Thomas!
I have been gluten free for 3 years and have never felt better..thanks Thomas once again for this video spreading the word on keto intermittent fasting and the like.. this is why I too have created a channel @naile Zoupani talking about the same issues especially since I lost 40kg on this diet. fabulous work.. keep the videos coming!!
same, i dont see the point of eating them. Really rare i would eat some quinoa or whole buckwheat but thats about it. I keep it grain free almost 100% days of the year
I was diagnosed with Celiac in 2009. I would like to hear more from your perspective. You are brilliant and present your material in an understandable manner. Thank you!
I stopped eating gluten and wheat about 9 months ago. I wasn't super intolerant but the changes I noticed were I lost rashes/red spots on my skin, mostly my chest/belly/back, I have less other skin outbreaks and my brain fog dissapeared! I feel much better ^^ Less fatigued.
I have Hashimoto’s and my thyroid wasn’t “responding to meds” at all and I had nodes and my weight kept piling on no matter what I ate or how much I exercised and when my levels started getting normal I was told I shouldn’t be symptomatic anymore but I was, I could barely function. Going gluten free was the only thing that helped but it was like an accumulative affect. So after about 3 months of gluten free my weight started dropping rapidly (like 30kg in 5 months) and pretty much 80% of my symptoms went away. My endo said that gluten triggers an autoimmune response in lots of people with autoimmune disease not just celiac which is super interesting and drastically changed the quality of my life.
LacyMartini I have a similar story... after months of being gf, my thyroid normalized and I had to stop thyroid hormone replacement. I’ve been gf for about 15-16 years!
Little House in the Big Apple do you find if you have gluten now like accidentally your symptoms come back for a few days - weeks depending on how much? Like I find if I have a bit of sauce with gluten I’ll be fine but if I have that little bit of sauce like a few times in a short period of time I will become symptomatic again for a few days or even weeks.
LacyMartini what I will notice if I get accidentally gluted (often during travel) my thyroid will actually ache! Usually I’m super careful after (I have celiacs so I must avoid) so I never get a worsening of my hashis symptoms.
I'm so glad that you found out what it was and even though it's super hard to adjust to a gluten free diet, I'm also glad that it happened to be something that you can control rather than to have to depend on the pharmaceutical industry to fix!
Thank you! It took three years to finally be diagnosed with celiac disease and people still want to tell me that it’s all in my head. I would love for your research and thoughts on grain brain.
Very eloquent as always! I definitely have sensitivity to wheat and other grains. It took me my whole life to figure it out. My reaction is dermatitis, and my face basically starts falling off. It really wasn't until I switched to keto and then carnivore, that I noticed my face to be normal.... I just can't believe that all my life I've gone to dermatologists and not one suggested a diet change. I used to live on creams and other products, to avoid an embarrassing peeling-off face. I am glad I eventually figured it out
Amazing video and very consice, can you talk about "solutions" to these issues, and also how to identify which group you are in? (sensitive. Celiac, wheat allergy etc). Thanks so much 👍
This has got to be my favorite video of Thomas's by far. It answered questions that I have been asking since before the gluten free "fad" got into full swing when I first realized I had a problem with gluten. This lends a lot of insight into why a couple beers doesn't bother me that much but a cup and a half of rice sends me over the edge. LOL
Man I've been dealing with gluten intollerance for years now, but it was hard to really understand it. This is definitely the best explaination I've seen!
I have never found anyone else with my reaction to wheat bread. I get insomnia anytime I eat whole wheat bread. I went 4 years with very little sleep. Out of a process of elimination, I determined this was the problem. I eliminated wheat bread and within 2 days I was sleeping all night. I have tested this theory several times over the last 6 years. If I eat a sandwich or have toast with whole wheat bread, I won't sleep that night.
my son is a top athlete, he plays rugby in new zealand and is in the highest training academys , he has type 1 and two weeks ago diagnosed with celiac , we think he may have had this for 2 years and we didnt know ,your video is awsome, ive just forwarded it to him hes 19 , thank you
I've had this on going rash for over a year all over my back and stomach. Couldn't figure it out. It got worse and worse. My scalp was so itchy and my hair started falling out...found out I had a gluten allergy. Was also dealing with bad depression, waking up a million times at night and bad brain fog. Only found out recently but everything has already improved greatly since going GF!!
Awesome video! Could you possibly make videos on foods in your opinion to stay away from and to add to someone's diet? Or actual diets or tips on making a diet. How about a day in the life? Your daily meals? Think about it.
Gluten sensitivity is incredibly common and I think one of the leading causes of intestinal permeability. I recommend an elimination diet to all of my patients for 30 days and I rarely test for gluten intolerance and celiac disease as it is so prevalent.
I'm trying the FODMAP system. Basically an elimination/exclusion diet down to basic foods for 4 weeks. Slowly reintroducing 1 of the foods that you used to eat over 1 to 3 days in order to see your reaction to that food.
I can’t stop breaking out with red itchy bites or patches on my body., leaky gut issues, and many more. It is driving me to become so depressed that I was put on Prozac. I never took it yet. Now I’m hearing more about gluten sensitivity and I need to get tested for other allergies as well. Thank you for the information.
I'm a service-connected veteran and get all of my care from my local VA (Palo Alto CA, my VA doc is also a Stanford Doctor). I have severe and moderate arthritis in many joints of my body, I've had one hip replacement, another one schedules for end of Oct and will need a shoulder replacement after that. One of the things that I was told was to remove gluten out of my diet as much as possible, if not completely. OMG!! This is very difficult to do! I LOVE GLUTEN!! For the last year I've been trying to eat gluten free. I've done pretty good, but not 100%. Gluten is in so many things, you have to look for things to say "Gluten Free". Even many products that are rice or quinoa still have some flour in them. I will say, it isn't making my arthritis go away, but it does help with the pain management. I'm able to use topical gels and no oral medications (which are not an option for me due to stomach issues) to control pain. Do I miss gluten? YES!! However do I feel better? Yes I do.
I only moved to Keto a few weeks ago after years of severe gastritis, acid reflux and all sorts of stomach problems. I have begun witnessing the changes in such a short period
Thank you for posting this. I have Celiac and get tired of people trivializing something that damn near killed me. (It took a long time for them to diagnose what was wrong with me.)
My naturopath told me to stop eating anything containing gluten, after about 3 months I had 2 pieces of pizza with regular flour, my stomach became bloated after eating just 2 pieces. Something I noticed after eating sandwiches prior to going gluten free, is that I would feel fuller than I should have after eating a relatively small sandwich. Going gluten free has helped lose about 15 pounds.
It’s crazy because we’re not even aware most of the time, we have become so used to it. I’m just realising that it has been causing me depression and immune problems from a young age and never really made it a big deal, but now I am super aware and I am going to heal myself.
i noticed i couldnt lose one ounce of fat while eating bread regularily no matter how low my clories went.. doin keto and or IF just melted fats almost immediately
I had the same experience. Lost 20 pounds on keto but switched to a regular diet to maintain. Ketos really hard long term just couldn't eat any more eggs and fat and my LDL went too high.
This explains a lot. 😣😭😭. Especially the last piece informing us about rice and corn. I swell up and get really lethargic after eating rice, pasta and now it's starting to happen with corn. 😫 Thank you Thomas.🙄
My former physio was a smug arrogant smart ass and made fun of it too. He needs to stay in his lane and not qct like he knows everything about everything- the same way he would correct someone if they saif something about physio that's wrong.
I’m intolerant - if I eat gluten, I get rosey cheeks, bloated stomach, can’t sleep, hazy mood and get a blocked nose! I’m 100% gluten free and I feel so much more energetic.
I have Celiac disease and get people all the time laugh at me and sya I'm just doing it as a fad! I've even had waitstaff not take me seriously when I ask for a GF meal and give me a normal one, I've ended up in hospital because of this. Thank you Thomas for this video!
Why am I only finding this vid now 😭 for years I thought I was just Lactose intolerant and never knew why eating bread, cereals, etc without dairy still made me bloat and feel crappy. I've been eating only gluten free for like 5 days and I'm not sure if it's just in my head or what but my mood and tummy does seem a bit better recently 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
I have both celiacs and hashis (which resolved on its own after being gf for a time) and have 2 sisters with gluten intolerance. It’s not fun to have to avoid, but so much improvement in quality of life that’s it’s totally worthwhile. Great vid!
Thomas DeLauer, study up on the hormone zonulin, intestinal permeability (leaky gut), and zonulin's relationship to celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and some people with IBS. Zonulin was discovered in 2000 by Dr. Alessio Fasano MD and his team of researchers. I suggest that you do a video on all of this. Nobody is really getting the word out about zonulin.
When I meet those people who roll their eyes and say "Oh your one of THOSE people" I so wish I could snap my fingers and make them experience the pain and sickness I feel when I've eaten gluten! Let's see if they roll their eyes then!
Gluten free is definitely lifestyle change. I have family with celiac and I just found out I am gluten sensitive or something strange because I show celiac symptoms. Have the gene for celiac but not showing in blood work. It’s scary but I’m ready to make that change. I’ve struggled to lose weight and I’m miserable. I know this and Leto will help
Safest way is to stay low carb and grain free. Being whole food reduces exposure to gluten so you don't need to worry. Just ensure you keep your vegetable levels high in order to get enough fibre, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals too
I've had celiac disease since a kid but until I was 16 I got a diagnosis I find keto sustainable for me because I can't eat no grains at all or milk I developed lactose intolerance after it as well
Was diagnosed with hypothyroidism as a kid. Was always skinny though. Doctors would say "idk" when I asked how is this possible since people with hypothyroidism have slow metabolisms. Turns out after 20 years of feeling like garbage without an answer as to why? All it ever was was gluten. I was told I'd be on thyroid hormone replacement for life. Turns out 10 doctor's and three endocrinologist we're all wrong. Ya no shit my TSH is going to be off if my immune system is constantly flared up. All of my ailments: (debilitating brain fog, chronic fatigue, sleeping after most meals, eczema rash, pealing lips, white tongue, itchy feet, extremely stiff joints, muscle loss, weight loss, puffy face rash, dry hair, cold intolerance, no appetite, mood swings, depression, anxiety, extreme allergies, ext). All gone almost over night after eliminating gluten entirely. Still blows my mind how incompetent the medical system is.
I've had red bumps on my arms all my life and I went on Keto and it started to clear up... I ate a piece of bread and the bumps didn't come back but it was only a little bread. Then a few weeks later I had a cheat day and had a lot of bread and the bumps came right back. I regret eating the bread for sure because it took forever for the bumps to go away the first time. At least now I learned to avoid wheat.
Celiac hepatitis here- from childhood, eating gluten made my abdomen swell for days amongst other symptoms like post nasal drip, with either bread, rice etc served at almost every meal. Switched to keto a year ago and my abdomen since looks normal after eating... wish I discovered keto decades ago.
Thanks St.Thomas for spelling it out. Also I'm under the impression that a standard GP blood test won't show a positive result if consistently on a gluten free diet.
Hey Thomas Delauer!!! I have my own issue with gluten That is Somewhat unique when it comes to issues with gluten. I have asperger's Syndrome... In most cases (not all) Once we hit puberty... People with asperger's syndrome start to have a problem with gluten effecting our ability to think straight. Keep in mind asperger's syndrome literally means that our brain is operating on a very specific alternate operating system. To put it simply... Most people's brains are running Ios While mine is running android...
This is very comprehensive with good explanations. Does anyone else out there get tachycardia if they consume gluten? Since going GF, I’ve had two slip ups...and both times crazy fast heart rate (resting) and even elevated BP. It goes away after a few hours. Probably comes on about 30-45 minutes after ingestion.

Hello Thomas, many thanks for the awesome videos and the amazing content. Thats really awesome. 1 Video is missing in complete youtube: How to put on Mass in Ketosis (like Bulking) / how to gain more body weight in ketosis. No good Video is out there in YT. Most recommend going with Carbs, but whats your approach ? Could you make such a video? That would be awesome !
Now I know why I always would get bloated after eating breads and pasta. I would always bloat right after eating something with gluten and then be bloated for like a week. Maybe thats why my metabolism is SUPER slow?!?! hmmmm
With Hashimotos I’ve developed a gluten intolerance. It seems to be a common thing for people with autoimmune diseases. They diagnosed me with a bunch of BS, that I didn’t even have. My suggestion, please do your own research. Doctors get kick backs from medicines they prescribe.
In the process of testing for a gluten sensitivity. Only clue was testing positive for thyroid antibodies (~200 so not crazy high) which can be triggered by eating gluten. All other thyroid tests were normal. Never felt any different after eating gluten, never had heartburn TBH. Just 5 years of unexplained infertility despite having no health issues, being a healthy weight, and practicing healthy habits. The body is a mystery sometimes!
Ive been GF for the last 14 yrs. Before that , any wheat I consumed would cause acid reflux/gerd, stomach pains, diarrhea. I was only given acid blockers by my docs but wouldnt cure/solve the problem. After hearing of people suffering from celiac from consuming wheat with my same symptoms, I eliminated gluten from my diet and a couple weeks later I was off my acid blockers and havent had any issues since. Def not a fad. Unfortunately, now all my favorite foods (pizza, garlic/sour dough bread) have gone by the wayside. Unless I want eat a GF pizza with the consistency of a card board box. No fun
My reaction to gluten is neurological and mimics MS. It got to the point where I needed a cane to walk. The doctors were at a loss to explain why I had the symptoms of MS without any physical evidence of it. A friend recommended trying a gluten free diet. It's been 8 years now and I've never looked back. If I ever accidentally injest gluten, I know it within hours. My hands and feet go numb, I lose my balance, my body is shaky, etc. It's awful!
I would really like you to delve into dairy allergies. I had blood work done and discovered that I have a high sensitivity to gluten but also really high sensitivity to dairy. I've been on migraine medication for 41 years and cutting these two things out of my diet has me off my medication......amazing!
Been gluten free for 3 years now. I used to get chronic migraines that were disabilating to my daily life. 3 years ago I had cyclic vomiting syndrome and on a whim while sick I decided to leave out gluten when I was able to eat again. Since then I have not gotten a single migraine. I kept food journals for years to try and figure out if anything was triggering the migraines too. So I don't know if I'm gluten intolerant, sensitive or what. All I know is I never want to get those migraines again.
I was told by my doctor that intolerance's were just a fad and this seasons must have, he couldn't work out why when i ate wheat products i get the runs, stomach cramps and blinding headaches either though.
My wife has this reaction to gluten. Within 10 minutes her face will fall like it has been paralyzed and she will have a massive headache. Most recently her lips will swell a bit and her tongue will feel funny. Then for the next three weeks she will have an uncontrollable urinary tract and kidney infection. Is this allergy or intolerance? Because it seems like allergy you me but yet the medical world calls it intolerance.
Saw your video on keto diet and muscle building, but do you have another video about an eating and workout schedule on keto diet. For example, how long after eating should I wait until my body’s ready to have the energy for hard resistance training?

I suppose the actual diagnosis doesn't matter if the treatment is the same (avoid wheat/gluten). However if you want to consume other grains than wheat that have gluten then it may be more important to get an actual diagnosis.
Wheat has been a gmo since the 1950’s, wheat never looked like it does today. Your’e right glyphosate is in wheat and corn, corn is gmo also. I either gave a gluten intolerance or celiac, a blood test in the 90’s showed I had celiac markers, but back then, gluten intolerance didn’t exist. Since the 90’s medically they know alot more. But I went 100% gf anyways. Since then, I have never in my life felt any better. I also have endometriosis, gluten flares it up, so I have 2 reasons to quit gluten. I too have issues with rice, and corn.
I had bouts of diarrhea for 16 years until I had genetic testing which showed I had reason to blame gluten. Also, all grains are problems. No more oatmeal!
I actually have fructan sensitivity, and the fructan in wheat is the problem. When I have gluten on its own I have no reactions. So I avoid wheat whenever possible.
Thousands of people thought they were depressed, went on mind-altering meds; but what they really had was a gluten allergy. This is only between last 1-2 decades. Food is making people sick, and they are on antidepressants instead of altering their diet. I think this is a leading factor to why so many feel so good on a Keto diet.
gluten can lead to depression what does this have to do with it ?
Remove the gluten, don't take pills for something that has nothing to do with it!

That's amazing. The more we learn these days, the more we see how much of a problem carbohydrates can be.
Hope you are feeling better!
THANK YOU!!! I have PCOS and gluten has made my health worse! We need more people to speak out! 💕
I went gluten free last week. The difference is insane. Anxiety almost gone. Depression gone. Tiredness gone.
"This causes some issues in our guts" is a huge understatement
It kills us...
Huge understatement. I suffer from headaches,ulcers etc whenever I eat gluten.
It causes me stupid amounts of anxiety every morning

Our ancestors were eating different type of wheat which we have nowadays, and also they fermented it prior to make a bread and etc.
twilight
I have been done with grains no wheat , rice , oats , corn etc
same, i dont see the point of eating them. Really rare i would eat some quinoa or whole buckwheat but thats about it. I keep it grain free almost 100% days of the year
Exactly! Fermentation drastically reduces the amount of gluten.

Great video, shared to Facebook. I’ve been saying all this for years, but everyone was just like “yeah sure”. Maybe this will help them understand!!
This will not help, Americans love eating and drinking poison.
Awesome and very informative video. Thanks!!!
When i consume gluten i got skin problems and i got tired.
Me too. I stopped eating gluten and felt so much more energy!
Same here!!
I've had this on going rash for over a year all over my back and stomach. Couldn't figure it out. It got worse and worse.

Gluten sensitivity is incredibly common and I think one of the leading causes of intestinal permeability. I recommend an elimination diet to all of my patients for 30 days and I rarely test for gluten intolerance and celiac disease as it is so prevalent.
What happens after the 30 days,?
I'm trying the FODMAP system. Basically an elimination/exclusion diet down to basic foods for 4 weeks. Slowly reintroducing 1 of the foods that you used to eat over 1 to 3 days in order to see your reaction to that food.

I only moved to Keto a few weeks ago after years of severe gastritis, acid reflux and all sorts of stomach problems. I have begun witnessing the changes in such a short period
Thank you for posting this. I have Celiac and get tired of people trivializing something that damn near killed me. (It took a long time for them to diagnose what was wrong with me.)
My naturopath told me to stop eating anything containing gluten, after about 3 months I had 2 pieces of pizza with regular flour, my stomach became bloated after eating just 2 pieces. Something I noticed after eating sandwiches prior to going gluten free, is that I would feel fuller than I should have after eating a relatively small sandwich. Going gluten free has helped lose about 15 pounds.
It’s crazy because we’re not even aware most of the time, we have become so used to it. I’m just realising that it has been causing me depression and immune problems from a young age and never really made it a big deal, but now I am super aware and I am going to heal myself.
You always drop the science and I love it. I have to do some research sometime but its all good..thank you again
I love you, Thomas. Your videos changed my life. Keep up the great work!
AndraeXP thank you for tuning in, so glad you enjoy the videos!!
Excellent job explaining this.
i noticed i couldnt lose one ounce of fat while eating bread regularily no matter how low my clories went..
doin keto and or IF just melted fats almost immediately
I had the same experience. Lost 20 pounds on keto but switched to a regular diet to maintain. Ketos really hard long term just couldn't eat any more eggs and fat and my LDL went too high.
Can relate.
Same
This explains a lot. 😣😭😭. Especially the last piece informing us about rice and corn. I swell up and get really lethargic after eating rice, pasta and now it's starting to happen with corn. 😫
Thank you Thomas.🙄
please talk about wheat belly!!! Your videos are awesomely educational!! Love them!!
I'm going to message this to my 19 year old son. He's been hearing that gluten problems are just a fad.
Valerie Robles, not so much a fad when people are healing and reversing diseases
My former physio was a smug arrogant smart ass and made fun of it too.
He needs to stay in his lane and not qct like he knows everything about everything- the same way he would correct someone if they saif something about physio that's wrong.
Very nicely explained
Great explanation 🙏 thank you.
allergicnfit Ny thanks for tuning in!!
Thomas DeLauer thanks for putting out great content! 🙂
Great explanation of these differences! Thank you!
I’m intolerant - if I eat gluten, I get rosey cheeks, bloated stomach, can’t sleep, hazy mood and get a blocked nose! I’m 100% gluten free and I feel so much more energetic.
You’re the man Thomas! Videos always informative
Well done! Thank you
Not to mention herbicides and pesticides used to grow these grains. And intestinal permeability aka leaky gut which you've covered extensively before
I have Celiac disease and get people all the time laugh at me and sya I'm just doing it as a fad! I've even had waitstaff not take me seriously when I ask for a GF meal and give me a normal one, I've ended up in hospital because of this. Thank you Thomas for this video!
Your channel is much valuable Thomas 🙏
Mechi Mansilla thank you for watching!!
Why am I only finding this vid now 😭 for years I thought I was just Lactose intolerant and never knew why eating bread, cereals, etc without dairy still made me bloat and feel crappy. I've been eating only gluten free for like 5 days and I'm not sure if it's just in my head or what but my mood and tummy does seem a bit better recently 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
I have both celiacs and hashis (which resolved on its own after being gf for a time) and have 2 sisters with gluten intolerance. It’s not fun to have to avoid, but so much improvement in quality of life that’s it’s totally worthwhile. Great vid!
I just got diagnosed with hashimoto's. Hoping gluten free helps me too!
Wow Thank You! I had no understanding of it and thought it was just a fad, although I realized it was based in some fact. Keep the videoes coming!!!
Hey Thomas.. great video as usual! Just wondering what you would suggest we eat instead of wheat and other grains.
Hamed al-julaibi
Meats, fish , offal, cheeses, kefir, leafy greens ,nuts
Thomas DeLauer, study up on the hormone zonulin, intestinal permeability (leaky gut), and zonulin's relationship to celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and some people with IBS. Zonulin was discovered in 2000 by Dr. Alessio Fasano MD and his team of researchers. I suggest that you do a video on all of this. Nobody is really getting the word out about zonulin.
When I meet those people who roll their eyes and say "Oh your one of THOSE people" I so wish I could snap my fingers and make them experience the pain and sickness I feel when I've eaten gluten! Let's see if they roll their eyes then!
Thank you so much for this super informative video! 👍
Gluten free is definitely lifestyle change. I have family with celiac and I just found out I am gluten sensitive or something strange because I show celiac symptoms. Have the gene for celiac but not showing in blood work. It’s scary but I’m ready to make that change. I’ve struggled to lose weight and I’m miserable. I know this and Leto will help
Safest way is to stay low carb and grain free. Being whole food reduces exposure to gluten so you don't need to worry. Just ensure you keep your vegetable levels high in order to get enough fibre, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals too

Thank you for the amazing topics...I suggest a topic discussing the link between iron defeciency and muscle gain..
Yes more videos like this please!!
I've had celiac disease since a kid but until I was 16 I got a diagnosis I find keto sustainable for me because I can't eat no grains at all or milk I developed lactose intolerance after it as well
I found it exacerbated my arthritis. Lots of trial and error and denial. I stay away from it now. I feel best on keto.
Was diagnosed with hypothyroidism as a kid. Was always skinny though. Doctors would say "idk" when I asked how is this possible since people with hypothyroidism have slow metabolisms.
Turns out after 20 years of feeling like garbage without an answer as to why? All it ever was was gluten. I was told I'd be on thyroid hormone replacement for life. Turns out 10 doctor's and three endocrinologist we're all wrong. Ya no shit my TSH is going to be off if my immune system is constantly flared up.
All of my ailments: (debilitating brain fog, chronic fatigue, sleeping after most meals, eczema rash, pealing lips, white tongue, itchy feet, extremely stiff joints, muscle loss, weight loss, puffy face rash, dry hair, cold intolerance, no appetite, mood swings, depression, anxiety, extreme allergies, ext).
All gone almost over night after eliminating gluten entirely.
Still blows my mind how incompetent the medical system is.
Thank you so much for this video! 🖤
I've had red bumps on my arms all my life and I went on Keto and it started to clear up... I ate a piece of bread and the bumps didn't come back but it was only a little bread. Then a few weeks later I had a cheat day and had a lot of bread and the bumps came right back. I regret eating the bread for sure because it took forever for the bumps to go away the first time. At least now I learned to avoid wheat.
Celiac hepatitis here- from childhood, eating gluten made my abdomen swell for days amongst other symptoms like post nasal drip, with either bread, rice etc served at almost every meal.
Switched to keto a year ago and my abdomen since looks normal after eating... wish I discovered keto decades ago.
Thanks St.Thomas for spelling it out.
Also I'm under the impression that a standard GP blood test won't show a positive result if consistently on a gluten free diet.
Hey Thomas Delauer!!!
I have my own issue with gluten That is Somewhat unique when it comes to issues with gluten.
I have asperger's Syndrome... In most cases (not all) Once we hit puberty... People with asperger's syndrome start to have a problem with gluten effecting our ability to think straight.
Keep in mind asperger's syndrome literally means that our brain is operating on a very specific alternate operating system.
To put it simply... Most people's brains are running Ios While mine is running android...
I avoid all grain products! One crumb or just physical contact with grain based food will spark a reaction !
Thank you!!! Ppl think I can eat "just a little" of it. I can't. HV to stay away!
This is very comprehensive with good explanations. Does anyone else out there get tachycardia if they consume gluten? Since going GF, I’ve had two slip ups...and both times crazy fast heart rate (resting) and even elevated BP. It goes away after a few hours. Probably comes on about 30-45 minutes after ingestion.

Awesome video sir..can u please do a video on mustard oil
Hello Thomas,
many thanks for the awesome videos and the amazing content.
Thats really awesome.
1 Video is missing in complete youtube:
How to put on Mass in Ketosis (like Bulking) / how to gain more body weight in ketosis. No good Video is out there in YT.
Most recommend going with Carbs, but whats your approach ?
Could you make such a video?
That would be awesome !
I was diagnosed with celiac disease almost 2 years ago... it sucks.
It caused me CHRONIC migraines whenever I ate them. Also when I stopped I still got them regularly...
Now I know why I always would get bloated after eating breads and pasta. I would always bloat right after eating something with gluten and then be bloated for like a week. Maybe thats why my metabolism is SUPER slow?!?! hmmmm
With Hashimotos I’ve developed a gluten intolerance. It seems to be a common thing for people with autoimmune diseases. They diagnosed me with a bunch of BS, that I didn’t even have. My suggestion, please do your own research. Doctors get kick backs from medicines they prescribe.
In the process of testing for a gluten sensitivity. Only clue was testing positive for thyroid antibodies (~200 so not crazy high) which can be triggered by eating gluten. All other thyroid tests were normal. Never felt any different after eating gluten, never had heartburn TBH. Just 5 years of unexplained infertility despite having no health issues, being a healthy weight, and practicing healthy habits. The body is a mystery sometimes!
Don't forget about the malabsorptive syndromes that inhibit the absorption of nutrients such as fats, and fat soluble vitamins
Ive been GF for the last 14 yrs. Before that , any wheat I consumed would cause acid reflux/gerd, stomach pains, diarrhea. I was only given acid blockers by my docs but wouldnt cure/solve the problem. After hearing of people suffering from celiac from consuming wheat with my same symptoms, I eliminated gluten from my diet and a couple weeks later I was off my acid blockers and havent had any issues since. Def not a fad. Unfortunately, now all my favorite foods (pizza, garlic/sour dough bread) have gone by the wayside. Unless I want eat a GF pizza with the consistency of a card board box. No fun
My reaction to gluten is neurological and mimics MS. It got to the point where I needed a cane to walk. The doctors were at a loss to explain why I had the symptoms of MS without any physical evidence of it. A friend recommended trying a gluten free diet. It's been 8 years now and I've never looked back. If I ever accidentally injest gluten, I know it within hours. My hands and feet go numb, I lose my balance, my body is shaky, etc. It's awful!
@Cookie Monster I am narcoleptic, so I'm always tired and exhausted, but even more so if I have gluten.
I have this problem with all grains .. my life is dreadful the past year, I’m suffering really bad with immune response to almost any type of grains
I would really like you to delve into dairy allergies. I had blood work done and discovered that I have a high sensitivity to gluten but also really high sensitivity to dairy. I've been on migraine medication for 41 years and cutting these two things out of my diet has me off my medication......amazing!
Just found your video on dairy. Very informative.
You could be intolerant not only to lactose but casein in milk. Casein is a protein.
Been gluten free for 3 years now. I used to get chronic migraines that were disabilating to my daily life. 3 years ago I had cyclic vomiting syndrome and on a whim while sick I decided to leave out gluten when I was able to eat again. Since then I have not gotten a single migraine. I kept food journals for years to try and figure out if anything was triggering the migraines too. So I don't know if I'm gluten intolerant, sensitive or what. All I know is I never want to get those migraines again.
I was told by my doctor that intolerance's were just a fad and this seasons must have, he couldn't work out why when i ate wheat products i get the runs, stomach cramps and blinding headaches either though.
You have to contact Dr Osborne with his book No Grain No PAIN
Wheatgrass is included too, be careful people
Thomas, please could you make a video on how to cure Celiac disease?
My wife has this reaction to gluten. Within 10 minutes her face will fall like it has been paralyzed and she will have a massive headache. Most recently her lips will swell a bit and her tongue will feel funny. Then for the next three weeks she will have an uncontrollable urinary tract and kidney infection.
Is this allergy or intolerance? Because it seems like allergy you me but yet the medical world calls it intolerance.
So it can be in grain fed animals ?
Saw your video on keto diet and muscle building, but do you have another video about an eating and workout schedule on keto diet. For example, how long after eating should I wait until my body’s ready to have the energy for hard resistance training?

I'm lost. i have bloating, brain fog and asthma from gluten. what is it ? intolerance allergy or kind of celiac ?
Talk to your doctor :)
I suppose the actual diagnosis doesn't matter if the treatment is the same (avoid wheat/gluten). However if you want to consume other grains than wheat that have gluten then it may be more important to get an actual diagnosis.
It's the herbicide, Glyphosate (Roundup) that is sprayed on all the products.
Get tested. Do a doctor guided Elimination Diet to be sure it's only gluten and not other grains or allergens etc.
My tummy hurts when I eat wheat , and I been watching it for some time now
Wheat has been a gmo since the 1950’s, wheat never looked like it does today. Your’e right glyphosate is in wheat and corn, corn is gmo also.
I either gave a gluten intolerance or celiac, a blood test in the 90’s showed I had celiac markers, but back then, gluten intolerance didn’t exist. Since the 90’s medically they know alot more. But I went 100% gf anyways. Since then, I have never in my life felt any better.
I also have endometriosis, gluten flares it up, so I have 2 reasons to quit gluten. I too have issues with rice, and corn.
I had bouts of diarrhea for 16 years until I had genetic testing which showed I had reason to blame gluten. Also, all grains are problems. No more oatmeal!
I actually have fructan sensitivity, and the fructan in wheat is the problem. When I have gluten on its own I have no reactions. So I avoid wheat whenever possible.
