The latest on dementia and the effects of gluten
When you don’t know what’s going on - you feel frightened. Dementia is devastating. But clinical studies now implicate food toxins in the formation brain plaques.

And yet - any of us can be struck down with dreadful disease for no reason the doctor can give.
