re: BJ's post about endoscopy

[Guest guest]

I have to second everything BJ said about the endoscopy. I am fairly

new to the GLUTEN scene...BUT one thing I am convinced of is NO ONE

NEEDS GLUTEN, and MOST people would be better off if they didn't eat

it EVER. There is nothing GOOD in gluten...and the more I read and

the more I educate myself the more it is just a bad deal all the way

around. So to have a test to tell you something you don't really need

to have a definite answer on is really basically wasting your money.

Just quite eating it. The really great thing that i have noticed

about NOT eating gluten is that I eat MUCH MORE HEALTHY FOOD...and I

don't know if this is true of others who have gotten off gluten but I

want to eat more raw veggies and fruits...it's like my mouth wants to

taste things...I know I'm weird LOL Haven't seen that mentioned

anywhere LOL

Good luck to you.
