Gluten Free School Podcast: Gluten Free Diet, Eliminate Sugar Cravings, Reduce Inflammation & Do It All on Budget
While there’s some debate about whether it’s safe to go gluten free without a celiac diagnosis, the question about the safety of a gluten free pregnancy seems to be another can of worms. Women naturally worry if a dietary change can cause harm during a time when restricting foods generally considered healthy aren’t typically a…
Do you ever feel like your doctors (and other practitioners) aren’t giving you the attention and care you really need? Have you wondered to yourself how to get your doctor to listen to you?
