Wheat, Arthritis, Mood, and even Complexion

It made sense to me.

A lot of sense.

Many of the symptoms on this list get quickly better for me with just a couple days off wheat. And a couple days on wheat makes them worse.

Improved rheumatoid arthritis — I have seen this time and time again. Eliminate wheat and the painful thumbs, fingers, and other joints clear up dramatically. Many former rheumatoid sufferers people tell me that one cracker or pretzel will trigger a painful throbbing reminder that lasts a couple of hours.

…

Reduction or elimination of gastroesophageal reflux

…

Better mood — Eliminating wheat makes you happier and experience more stable moods. Just as wheat is responsible for a subset of schizophrenia and bipolar illness (this is fact), and wheat elimination generates dramatic improvement, when you or I eliminate wheat, we also experience a “smoothing” of mood swings.

…

Better complexion — I’m not entirely sure why, but various rashes will often dissipate, bags under the eyes are reduced, itching in funny places stops.

Make sure you study the points I’ve missed. I believe, based both on the available evidence and my personal experience, this will help you.
