Notas do Editor
- I haven’t always been the meat-eater I am today.
- When I turned 12, I decided that I would no longer eat meat of any kind.
- Instead, I started to eat a lot of tofu.
- I went on this way until I turned 24.
- I was a graduate student at the University of British Columbia
- When I started feeling tired and sick to my stomach quite frequently.
- I went to many different doctors
- And I had many different tests
- But the tests could never find anything wrong with me.
- I spent most of each day in bed
- And only got out of bed to drag myself to class
- I ate almost nothing but soup and crackers
- But still felt nauseas, especially after I ate.
- Finally, after 9 months of feeling sick, I had an appointment with a Nurse Practitioner. She suggested that the source of all of my problems might be…wheat.
- After confirming a diagnosis of Celiac disease with a simple blood test, I started a diet of only chicken and vegetables.
- After only a couple of months without eating any wheat, barley, rye, or oats…
- I felt healthier than ever!
- And that is why today, I love barbeques
- But don’t care much for bakeries.
