Hi all:
Just thought I would add my two cents to this discussion about how horrible gluten is (I've been hanging on another message board section about diabetes but this one looks great too). To add one more piece of information, in my opinion there is a very clear connection between gluten and type 1 diabetes. My little boy was recently diagnosed with type 1 a few weeks ago (he is only 15 months old). At first we were suspicious of milk protein as we introduced him to cow's millk a couple weeks before the diagnosis.
We went and saw a natural medicine doctor last week and a lot of pieces feel into place. We learned that the little boy (and his mother as it turns out) suffers from Celiac (and clearly his grandfather [mother's father] does as well). Our boy has had a TON of allergies and his pediatrician has been TOTALLY useless in this regard when we have been concerned about his allergies and his loose stomach over the past 8 months. In fact, we were the ones who diagnosed his diabetes, not them [they finally relented and gave us a confirming blood test when his mother insisted].
Got him on bifido and Omega 3 and his stomach is much better. While we are still not big fans of cow's milk, and never will be, it is a lot clearer to us how a leaky gut could allow all sorts of undigested proteins into the bloodstream and set the body's immune system into an uproar.
It's too bad that it took nonreversible diabetes to kick in for his parents (me) to do the research on this. And it is pretty much impossible to reverse the condition once his pancreas has become so deteriorated so while we look into alternative remedies, we are increasingly pessimitically realistic about it.
It is just a damn shame to know that so many other people, including a lot of little kids, are going to get ill due to the lack of awareness on the toxicity of gluten. My prediction is that gluten is one of the top "environmental" triggers for Type 1 diabetes in those who are already suspectible.
If anyone has any words of wisdom to share about dealing with newly diagnosed Type 1 diabetes who are little kids (darn Cheerios are no good to use either) with tons of allergies (egg, soy, milk, gluten and nuts), I'm all ears and certainly very appreciative!
Thanks and have a great weekend. - A
