This section highlights websites &
blogs of those that tend to see the larger picture when it
comes to health issues. They tend to go beyond current
mainstream medical thinking and present a slightly
different [and greatly appreciated] viewpoint.

The Gluten Doctors - They are a group of doctors and certified clinical nutritionists at HealthNow Medical in Sunnyvale, CA. After reading through their blog, it won't take long to realize that this group fully understands celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
"The number of M.D.s in this country who equate gluten sensitivity with celiac disease is phenomenal. Waiting for a positive celiac diagnosis is akin to waiting for a heart attack to occur before you tell a patient they have high cholesterol. It’s barbaric. And mark my words, within the decade gluten sensitivity WILL be known, understood and the idea of waiting for a positive intestinal biopsy before diagnosing it will be considered malpractice."
