Learn how to keep Celiac Disease from stealing your
health.
Introduction
How
Food Turned My Life Around
by Mary Jacoby Hastings
Learning to switch my
thinking from "Live to eat!" to "Eat to live!" has impacted
my life profoundly. I am on a life-changing journey as I accept and adapt to
living with Celiac Disease. I write this blog as a tribute to a great physician
who saved my life on more than on occasion because she is willing to listen to
her patients and think outside the box. Dr. Monique Maly has a family practice
integrating holistic with traditional medicine in Conifer, CO. Our
doctor-patient relationship has evolved into more of a partnership as I finally
begin to deal with gluten intolerance and the detrimental effects it has had on
my overall mental and physical health.
It is my hope that this
blog will help educate many others and perhaps force people to rethink what the
core source of their serious health conditions might be. In my case,
it took over 50 years for someone to identify that all of my
life-threatening ailments can be traced to an autoimmune disorder that begins
in the gut and blissfully ignorant, I was taking all the wrong steps to
"stay healthy" based on the sage wisdom of respected health and
nutrition professionals. You see, wheat, rye, barley and other
"poisons" (in my case) were destroying me from the inside out. The
kind of high fiber diets most people rely on to stay "heart
healthy" were actually killing me.
Follow my blog to find out why. Join me on a journey to
learn how food turned my life around.
