I came across this video of Dr. Terry Wahls successful battle with MS today while reading a post on the same subject from Kristen of Food Renegade. It’s an absolutely amazing tale of doing what you think is right and then learning to think for yourself when all else fails. I was in tears after [...]
10 Reasons to Go Grain-Free
by Nourished Kitchen
As you probably have figured out from this website, I’m always going on and on about not only a gluten-free diet, but a grain-free diet as well. While I know that one size does not fit all when it comes to diet — I have NEVER met a person that did not show tremendous improvement [...]
An idea we should all live by
I just came across this image on the blog of Adam Fields. I can think of so many ways that it would reshape the world we live in — the only ones that would lose would be the healthcare, pharmaceutical, and health insurance industries as well as the hordes of food industry lobbyists in Washington. [...]
Why Grains Are Unhealthy
A note from Chris: You’ve all seen the name Mark Sisson (Mark’s Daily Apple) on this site at least a couple of times. I’ve interviewed him as well as shared his recipe for Decadent Coconut Milk Whipped Cream with Berries and Dark Chocolate Coconut Mousse just last week. He’s the author of the hugely popular book, [...]

Quinoa: The Controversial Seed
by Kelly from The Spunky Coconut
This is a great post by Kelly from The Spunky Coconut. Quinoa has been the darling of the gluten-free community for at least the past few years. It’s a seed (making it not only gluten-free but grain-free as well) but it can be used in so many recipes that typically call for rice or pasta [...]

Doctors Not Following Biopsy Guidelines;
Missing Celiac
via The Savvy Celiac
Amy Leger (aka The Savvy Celiac) continually uncovers and shares great information on celiac disease research. This post in particular talking about the underdiagnosis of celiac disease in the United States is an eye-opener in terms of what we are and aren’t doing. Hopefully, the new guidelines that were put in place will make the [...]
Dr. Emily Deans on nutrition and mental health
via The Healthy Skeptic
I’ve been a big fan of Dr. Emily Deans (author of Evolutionary Psychiatry) for a while now. Also, she was kind enough to write a guest post here titled, Wheat and Schizophrenia back in May. She’s been one of the very few doctors (let alone psychiatrists) talking about how diet can affect mental health. If [...]
Top 10 Tips to Empower a Gluten Free Child
from The Savvy Celiac
As always, Amy Leger (aka The Savvy Celiac) has come up with some great “how-to” advice on how to “empower a gluten-free child”. Getting kids to want to follow a gluten-free diet is hard and this is welcomed advice from someone who’s raised children gluten-free. I’ve listed the first five of her top ten list, [...]
Diet and Illness
Eight years ago, a very dear friend of mine was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Since then, they’ve been through hospital after hospital, doctor after doctor, with insurance and without insurance and everywhere in between. They’ve been in county hospitals, residential facilities, and fairly close to being in homeless shelters at times. As hard as this has [...]
Five Guys confirms it’s gluten-free
(except for the buns)
(via Gluten-Free Glutton)
I’ve lived in Southern California for most of my life and In-N-Out Burger is and always has been the fast food burger place of choice for as long as I can remember. I also lived in Portland, Oregon…
