Can any Human Body handle Gluten? - Dr. Rodney Ford

I've done every diet you can imagine. Eliminating high gluten carbs like bread and pasta was was one of them. I felt like shit during that time so I got back on the gluten train and felt good again. In fact, I felt so good that I bought a wood-burning pizza oven to keep the good times rolling.

Now one of the things I learned when making high-quality pizza dough is that there is a 48-hour proofing process for dough fermentation, which is a tedious process that you would typically only see the best pizza places in Italy doing. And the reason why is because it's a pain in the ass. If you want to serve pizza on Wednesday afternoon, you literally needed to have started the dough-making process two days prior on Monday. Virtually no American pizza chains go to that level of trouble. In fact, most pizza chains here are what is considered to be "same day dough" in the industry, meaning that the dough is loaded with extra yeast and only allowed to rise for 4 - 5 hours before it's considered ready to bake. The reason why they load it up with yeast is because the yeast accelerates the rising process. But what you end up with is a tough dough that you could use as a frisbee if you wanted to.

The reason why I'm mentioning all this is because the gluten bonds on same-day dough are considered to be very strong, and the stronger the bond, the less digestible the dough is. If you've ever had a legit Neopolitan pizza before, the crust is very puffy like you see in the pizzas I made above. And when you bite into it, the dough itself is cracker thin and easy to chew. It almost melts in your mouth without you having to do anything. Now contrast that with a mass-produced, difficult-to-digest dough like Dominos or Pizza Hut where the crust is heavy, dense and very chewy.

So I said all that to say this. A lot of the reasons why people run into digestive issues with foods that contain gluten is because they are eating products where a shortcut has been taken on the quality of the dough, which ultimately makes it very hard for the body to digest it. It has nothing to do with actually being allergic to gluten.

One more thing, you say you eliminated high gluten carbs? And then you felt worse? Did you eliminate all gluten? It can take quite awhile just to recuperate from gluten exposure if it is indeed affecting you. And it can then take quite awhile to feel better.

So...if you have gluten sensitivity you feel either worse or better when you cut gluten? Seems like you have all bases covered.

Obviously you have never quit anything like alcohol, caffeine, ect? Yes, you can feel worse at first when you are addicted to something. IF you are not addicted you won't feel so bad. Gluten is a highly addictive substance. Do you own research. Buy some books, do something. Please, for your own health. You can thank me later. :)

It must feel great having a silver-bullet solution that cures all that ails you.

When did I say that?

Aside from your remark, IF Gluten is putting holes in people intestines, then all kinds of proteins, virus's, bugs, ect are invading one's bloodstream. Maybe even little parasites that cause things like Ulcerative colitis and Chron's disease?

Imagine what that could be doing to people. It can affect all parts of one's body, including the mind.

The doctor in the video you posted seems to blame gluten for everything.

Lots of ifs and maybes in the rest of your post.

I don't think he blames gluten on everything. Not sure why you think he "seems" to?

Have you read any of his books/research on the subject?

Have you ever read up on any of the new research that is out there about gluten?

Perhaps now would not be a good time to tell you that one of my favorite groups back in the day was Bread.
