Why Most Grains Are Bad For You, And What To Do About It
Primal Diet - Modern Health
This is a topic that could fill four newsletters, but I want to mention some points about grains that I feel strongly about. First let’s talk about gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and spelt, and is a contaminant in most oats as they are often shipped or processed with wheat. Gluten-free diets are becoming well-known now, and many scientific studies are showing that gluten intolerance is much more common than previously suspected.

Digestive systems of herbivores vs. carnivores I began researching equine digestion to check a hunch that my elderly pony had an ulcer. She was biting her sides and seemed uncomfortable. In learning her non-human digestive system, several points became clear. Some creatures are born to be vegetarians, and some are not. Should humans be vegetarians? Looking at differences in digestion may help answer that question.

Many parents don’t realize their kids hurt. Children don’t know tummies are not supposed to hurt. They may think it’s normal.
I did not know my gut was not supposed to hurt when growing up. As an adult I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease but decades of malabsorption took their toll on my bones and growth.
I always ask kids and teens in Consults if anything hurts. The question can surprise them, especially if they’re seeing me for “allergies”.
Explaining that pain (or constipation, gas, diarrhea) is not right and we want to fix it helps them understand WHY we’ll be changing their diet.
For other kids, stomach aches become a negotiating factor when they want out of doing something. It can be a problem figuring out real tummy aches from imaginary ones.
Either way, it’s important to address.
