https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36682923/#:~:text=Conclusion: In this multicenter study,screening test for celiac disease.
So why not test at infancy?? Right? Or did I miss something here - and if it is caught early how does that factor - sorry I haven’t looked into any of my questions-
People who are at risk for celiac are tested very young. The only treatment, afaik, is avoiding gluten. I believe the Italian government gives out vouchers to people who have celiac so they can buy gluten-free food.0 -
My personal feeling, which is not scientific, is that many of the problems we have with food today have to do somehow with a lack of diversity in our diets. Again, completely unscientific opinion, and I am willing to be proved wrong. I’m not claiming to understand the mechanism even if I’m right.
But we eat fewer varieties of grains than in centuries past, fewer kinds of vegetables, fewer legumes. Most people I know do not eat more than two or three different kinds of animal, and no one I know IRL eats the entire animal.
Even when it comes to processed foods, I think it’s possible the poison is in the dosage. If you’re eating the same processed foods with the same kinds of ingredients over and over again it seems likely that is going to cause more of a problem than having it occasionally.

I’ve been watching billions on showtime - and I really don’t think the art is that far off from real life - also I wonder if the food industry and big pharma and the medical industry as a whole are in kahoots - keep erryone sick and full of meds and run to the bank. To hell with your fellow man is all about the Benjamins baby- and conversely we just continue to injest whatever feels good in the moment and don’t appear to mind the death by 1000 cuts or that we are the proverbial frog In boiling water - myself included- idk - I’ve been musing about this the last couple of days or weeks or last 5 years idk
I have lots of thoughts on this, but i have no real studies or evidence to back it up so i wont just spew out what may or may not be true about our food and meds. What i do realize, in my own experience, not saying its fact....but i never knew a kid or an adult when i was growing up to either have a peanut allergy or be allefgic to gluten. It seems to have come on in just the past couple of decades. And it seems everybody has problems with gluten now. Seems odd.....
Very odd - also my thoughts are just thoughts not facts at all. Just what I’ve perceived in my own head - in my experience I do feel sharper mentally when I eat cleaner - and I don’t think that’s coincidence - it could be - I just don’t think it is - but maybe it is - who knows - I did get a decent conversation goin up in hur - Amirite??2 -

I’m crossing my legs at the thought 🫣 mine were only 6lbs it took a couple of days to part with those.. is it true bigger babies mean shorter labour? 🤔0 -
No, I had an emergency transfer from a planned homebirth to the hospital where they cut him out of me. His apgar was not good at birth.

His labour was my shortest and without any pain relief, a natural water birth.itchmyTwitch wrote: »

Geez good for both of you.
I was hooked up to the drugs as soon as I was allowed to have it. Luckily since I ended up needing a c section since I'm deformed but there was no plan for anything natural for me 😂2 -

My babies were both 6 pounders. First was out in 1.5 hours of me getting to the hospital and the second within 30 minutes. Both natural water birth but quite quick. Tore with both.
