Information & link for Gluten Summit
I read in previous threads that some forum members have benefitted from being on a gluten free diet. In case anyone is interested here is a link to an online event "The Gluten Summit", which is a series of interviews with the world’s leading experts on gluten-related disorders, health and nutrition that will be broadcast online from November 11-17, 2013.
Event site: http://theglutensummit.com
My mother has tested negative for celiac, but she has symtoms of gluten sensitivity - weak digestion etc for the longest time. I have not yet been able to convince her to try a month of going gluten-free to see if there is any benefit. Wheat is pretty much her staple diet. Is there any other way of knowing if she has any adverse reaction to gluten?
