  • The nice thing about science is that it can reevaluate studies, correct mistakes, make new discoveries… Science-based medicine is not and will never be perfect, but has the potential to get better and better. Methods not proven by science to be beneficial are not trustworthy, and it doesn’t matter whether they’re viewed as part of mainstream or alternative medicine.










  • I know a case like that. He was unfortunate enough to have doctors that were unable to diagnose him properly. When he started the diet in his thirties and his absolutely debilitating health condition got a lot better in so many ways, it was such a relief!

    But also, there are people who are not celiacs but do have an intolerance, and the diet is worth trying if someone thinks it may be their case.





  • Hi Wilco, the others went traight to sarcasm, which is not a good way to communicate. The point they failed to make was that the continent the USA, Mexico and Canada are located on is officially called “North America”, not just “America”. And people usually don’t even use “America” for the combination of North, South and Central one. The USA is offcially called the USA, so there appears to be nothing called just America officially. I would argue that people do use America in common speach - but then the use differ locally. In my European country we use it to mean the US. If we want to talk about the continent, we can also use it, but we need to specify we’re talking about the continent and which part, otherwise it gets confusing.
