I have doubts as to the validity of the parameters chosen for this smoothed-particle hydrodynamics simulation. I also have doubts as to whether SPH is a better modelling choice for this particular scenario than FFD.
…Unless the gentleman in question just ate a whole sack of prunes and washed them down with a bottle of laxoberal. That might make SPH a valid choice.
I tried most diets and am not 100% sure it’s actually the gluten in it, but avoiding gluten-containing foods and products has regifted me with the ability to trust a fart.
Do you live in North America? Have you tried eating products with European wheat? I haven’t done much research into if there’s any serious research on this, but I’ve seen some anecdotal instances (including a close family member) where people seem to have problems eating wheat and do better with a gluten-free (wheat-free) diet, don’t have celiac’s disease, but have been fine eating otherwise similar foods when made with European wheat. It seems different varieties are typically grown on each continent, so I’m guessing there’s some sort of subtle impact. Again, I haven’t looked into this yet so it’s basically just anecdotal as far as I’m concerned.
Just a thought, if there seems to be a difference between US & Euro wheat it could be a pesticide reaction rather than actually the gluten. I know you guys have a lot looser laws on pesticide use.
It’s called non-celiac gluten sensitivity and I just found that article a year ago or so and genuinely before being on a gluten free diet for months, I thought the same as South Park creators, that it’s more than likely just a fad and not an actual chronic health thing.
But now since I’ve tested the difference myself, I know otherwise.
I actually tried avoiding wheat and wheat derivatives altogether, which is kinda hard in Europe, since technically a lot of the glucose used is wheat derived, whereas in the US it’s usually from corn. And unlike in celiacs, which is an autoimmune disease, even small amounts of the allergens can give you symptoms. So “gluten free” in the EU is just any product that’s less than 20mg/kg (ie ppm). And while ofc there needs to be some cutoff, clearly that’s not enough for whatever I have. Loads of other people had complained about that specific brand’s “gluten free” as not being properly gluten free either.
There’s one beer brand which I can somewhat drink, and they’ve always been “the” gluten free beer here, despite predating the gluten-free craze. And that I can have and not have generally symptoms, but then other brands tried doing “gluten free” as well, I tried a few and those didn’t suit me. But then again those reactions also aren’t that reliable. They’re reliable, but like… I’d say with an 80% certainty.
I have had a gastroscopy when I was in the army so they’re pretty sure I’m not celiacs, which is why no-one ever suggested this diet to me. I basically spent 10 years wasting life due to like chronic fatigue that just fucking magically went away when I started doing a gluten- and casein-free diet (no gluten based products and no dairy whatsoever, even lactose free).
But the doctor’s here won’t recognise it as an issue. Or as the issue I have.
Ah, that’s too bad. I can absolutely sympathize with all you’re going through, including not getting much help from doctors. As much progress as we’ve had medically over the past century+ it seems like medicine is still just scratching the surface of what can be wrong, so as we get into more unusual things there’s a lot they just don’t know and can’t answer. I’ve had stomach issues for over 15 years and the diagnosis I’ve had is “Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)” or more recently “IBS-D” to indicate diarrhea-predominant as opposed to constipation-predominant. It’s not life-threatening but can be very disruptive. Sometimes the name bugs me, though, because it just seems to be a catch-all for when they’ve ruled out all the serious things they can test for like Crohn’s disease, cancer, or celiac’s. I have friends with the same diagnosis but very different symptoms and triggers, and I’d say it’s pretty clear we don’t actually have the same condition.
I’ve tried all sorts of diets and medicines, things that worked at first but stopped, and at least now have some sort of equilibrium. The pills don’t cure whatever the underlying cause is but at least it keeps things more controlled. Maybe that’s the best I can hope for right now. Avoiding certain foods, taking my pills, and hoping nothing external happens to upset the balance. It sounds like you’re finding your equilibrium at least, so I hope that keeps working for you!

The effect is very much what I get from eating gluten.
Like a shotgun shot. BLAM
Have you considered whole wheat?
You trying to turn homeboy into a claymore or something?

Nobody walks away from that kind of power.

Thanks for the tip, but yeah, I am European.
