Question:
Why is there such a prevalent celiac issue these days? Was it just not diagnosed in generations past? Or has food and human tolerances to food or even our increased love for processed foods and sugars the cause?
— Deborah Von Cannon
Answer:
So this
could be an entire seminar and
it's something that I think about a lot the other
day. I was reading that there are 99 diseases
that weren't around 99
years ago because of the
prevalence of processed foods and
how sometimes food is grown. The
other thing is that
It's very it's not difficult but it takes a
longer time for some reason in America for celiac
related conditions to
be diagnosed. I'm not a doctor but
I read a lot about this. I just think that the way
that our food is grown the way that it's packaged the
way that it's preserved has a lot to do with it
when you eat from the ground, you're not going to have
these issues unless you're eating wheat,
but nobody really eats wheat from the ground, but that's a great
question and I hope that you find
that helpful.
