Importance of Dedicated Gluten Free Facilities & Equipment

[fearlessjoy1]

I have an autoimmune disease caused by gluten, and I was very ill before I was diagnosed. One grain of wheat can cause more damage to the villi in my small intestines where we all absorb our nutrients. Mine were all but destroyed. It can take 8 months to heal from that one grain event. Those afflicted have some form of gluten sensitivity which can be celiac disease.God-made grains - low amt of gluten. Newer grains have way too much for many of our bodies to handle.

That seems impossible to clean.

Gluten free for weight loss, no, that's a fad and it will fade For the 3.5 million people in North America with celiac disease and the millions of people with wheat allergies this -is- a big deal. Even tiny amounts of gluten can make people sick and it can lead to life threatening complications if left untreated.

@GlutenFreeInsider BS. I went gluten free and lost 20-30 pounds in about 6 months.

The massive consumption of wheat products is a major reason so many Americans are over-weight. Notice how much carbs are eaten in the Asias and people are not over-weight.

very contaminated! looks like machines should be cleaned more often - even for non-gluten free facilities.

Mr. Stockman, how does a butcher get gluten contamination? From non-meat products, or cold colds? I am just wondering if I need to check my butcher....
