About Gluten-Free Remedies
Hello and welcome to glutenfreeremedies.com. Let me tell you a little bit about myself and why I started Gluten-Free Remedies. I am a rheumatologist and founder of the Institute for Specialized Medicine in San Diego, CA. I have been solving tough medical issues for my patients for years—many of whom have celiac disease or gluten intolerance.
For those who are genetically predisposed to gluten sensitivity, a gluten-free diet can bring miraculous relief. But the elimination of gluten doesn’t allow the body to get the critical nutrients it needs. The best way to compensate for the lack of these nutrients is to take supplements. I wanted to provide a safe, worry-free option for the gluten intolerant community so I created Gluten-Free Remedies™.
