The Anonymous Widower

Sometimes I Go Over the Top

Friends sometimes accuse me of being a bit boring as I keep banging on about gluten.

But then I read this at Gluten Connection, which advertises a new book.  This is an extract.

Millions of Americans are enduring painful and chronic conditions. Most doctors are mystified. Drugs usually offer little help. Most of these conditions have one thing in common… It’s called gluten sensitivity. It’s caused by a widely used food ingredient. It can lead to a wide range of serious health conditions and…it can affect up to 81% OF ALL AMERICANS!

If you are gluten sensitive, your body does not have the ability to break down and digest gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. Your body reacts to gluten as if it were a virus. It launches an immune reaction that can cause or worsen a wide range of chronic health problems.

So perhaps I’m a bit understated.
