I am wheat and gluten free since the end of January, 2013. I suffer from type II diabetes, which was controlled with difficulty and I could not lose weight. I had acid reflux issues day & night, I was snoring every night, I could not sleep on my tummy, I had pain in several joints and I was suffering from diarrhea almost on a daily basis with tummy aches. (Gastroenterologists thought it was stress related.) After the first long and hard weekend of removing wheat and gluten from my diet (headaches, agitation, arthritic pain), most of these issues resolved: no more acid reflux, no more snoring, no aching. Today, I weigh 10 kg [22 pounds] less and my diabetes is easily controlled. My diarrhea is almost completely resolved. I aim for losing more weight and eliminating the need to take medication. Yesterday, without thinking twice, I had a piece of meat loaf (contains bread crumbs, found out after consuming) for lunch. As soon as I left the table, my stomach felt like a stone, and I started having acid reflux. A few hours later, stomach was fine, no acid reflux, but I felt like my abdomen was about to explode. Bloating (as if I swallowed a basketball), acute pain, cold sweats. I immediately had to visit the WC [water closet = bathroom], and I did that several times during the night, with diarrhea and a bit of fresh blood. I consumed wheat accidentally a couple of months ago (a small bite only), but I did not have such a bad reaction. It is clear that as the body is clearing up from all this poison (wheat + gluten), even a small amount can lead to a substantial reaction. Thank you Dr Davis for your inspiring work.
