Dr Ford has concluded that everyone would be better off by abandoning wheat and gluten, and has been speaking out about the disastrous effects of gluten for the past ten years.  He has written over 100 scientific papers, has written ten books and has created a web-clinic for people seeking difficult-to-find food-allergy help.   www.Drrodneyford.com

 Dr Ford’s bold new concept is the “Gluten: ZERO Global” initiative. He claims that there is now enough evidence to ban gluten.  He puts gluten in the same category as tobacco-smoking and high-cholesterol.                                  www.glutenZEROglobal.com

Dr Ford is a medical doctor, a pediatrican and gastroenterologist.  He would rather see a child helped by a change in diet rather than being put on prescription medications. He states, “I am by promoting diet, not drugs. This is what it is all about…and of course the pharmaceutical world is not happy about this idea!” A gluten-free diet is often the cure for the sick, the tired, the grumpy and the fat.

He goes on to say, “Have you noticed that more and more people are adopting a gluten-free diet?  Have you seen that an increasing number of doctors are endorsing the concept of a gluten-free environment?  Research into gluten-related disorders shows that you do not have to have the condition of celiac disease to benefit from a gluten-free diet.”  Ford points to this recent paper:
"Spectrum of gluten-related disorders: consensus on new nomenclature and classification." By Sapone et al.  BMC Medicine 2012, 10:13
Yes, the top 15 celiac-doctors have now acknowledged that gluten-related illness is an important and common disease.

Major food retailers are actively promoting their gluten-free grocery lines, and the growth of gluten-free products is increasing exponentially.  Professor Ford is saying that everyone would be better of abandoning wheat. With so many crops in America being damaged by drought, perhaps now is the time to think about planting alternative grains.
