Who needs a reality check?
Found this in the January 9th edition of the Celiac.com newsletter. It's a reply to a story that doubted the benefits of a gluten-free diet:
Dr. Ron Hoggan Responds to The Atlantic's Article: A Gluten-Free Diet Reality Check
When my blood work for celiac disease came back negative, my gastroenterologist told me I could go back to eating wheat. But I chose not to, and lo and behold, I felt incredibly better two months into being gluten-free. There's really no harm in eliminating gluten on a trial basis to see if digestive symptoms clear up. If it doesn't work, you have your answer and can maybe look for another cause for your problems.
