Here is a statement that was brought to my attention. I am amazed how in our society, there are so many followers and not enough leaders. The “craze” (fad) today is to be gluten free. Is it good? Who knows? Some people feel better—in certain ways, but listen carefully to all the ways they do not feel good and pay attention!

Meanwhile, populations who traditionally eat a gluten-free diet have extremely rare occurrence of schizophrenia—just 2 in 65,000 versus close to 1 in 100 in grain-eating countries. And when populations Westernize their diets, schizophrenia becomes common.—this statement is only looking at one part of that (non western) society. It is not looking at the way we use chemicals, medications for every reason possible, and our diet. I want to say STOP—pay attention to moderation, variation—we don’t have it here. Our whole country is consuming the same thing—even those who are eating a gluten free diet, or those who are vegan. We are still consuming (or being affected by) the same chemicals, drugs, etc.

WAKE UP—Listen to the body. If you eat something that makes you feel good, notice other messages the body is sending you.

MODERATION, VARIATION—HELPS THE BODY HELP ITSELF!
