This is a "man on the street," feature of this publication I didn't post it because of the gluten free thing, but because of this man who survived ten metastasized bone cancers. If that is on the level, hats of to him. That's amazing, and he's obviously a fighter.

If the bone mets were from prostate cancer, then he's better off eliminating animal protein from his diet than gluten.

Research is key, and the jury is out on gluten, except for Crohn's Disease victims.

I suspect he likely does have prostate cancer, as that variety is slow growing, like to settle in bones and is responsive to hormone therapies.

“jury is out on gluten”

The jury has spoken in my case. I have to avoid gluten. I’ve tested the “gluten intolerance is psychosomatic, fad, [insert term here]”

I have personally researched the topic over many years, by ignoring repeated digestive evidence to the contrary, with very unpleasant and unhealthy result. However, I have found that there are pills that, for me, allow very limited intake with to able side effects.

It’s pretty easy to be gluten free these days. It costs a little more but it’s a lot easier than it used to be.
