There's no downsides to cutting gluten, is there?

Results that are probably placebo effects, but still

Not necessarily

Besides inconvenience, but I wouldn't critique it too harshly unless she started to wrap seaweed around broken bones

@AdminVaas no. Why would there be? It’s just unnecessarily hard to maintain.

Re: Proud Boys, I wouldn't expect him to do more than disavow instigation and non defensive violence

BLM gets away with more while doing far less

@AdminVaas only if you are diagnosed with celiacs disease.

I think they have it in their family but she specifically hasn't been diagnosed with it

In any case the carnivore diet already cuts all that out anyway

I’m currently at rehearsal for the Christmas carol we’re putting on for free

@Beemann ok. A positive diagnosis would be helpful. My grandmother has it I think.

Though the doctor Joe had on later said it might just be just the effects of fasting

From what I remember doctors had difficulty giving her a consistent diagnosis

@Beemann could be. Fasting is interesting

I don't blame her for going to quacks, if any of it works it's fine

But it's worth remembering that neither of them recommends the carnivore diet

She seems rational enough to understand some of it is snake oil

@AdminVaas really?

It's just something they're trying out because it's fixed their problems in the meantime

Well sure, there's some small issues that can be resolved with things like acupuncture, cupping and all that weirdness

I don't think going to the quack changed the outcome at all though

@Beemann I don’t know. It’s still concerning.

It's just not medically viable for serious issues.

@AdminVaas only as a placebo. None of those things actually do anything.

She tried the carnivore diet because of JRE's prior episode didn't she?

Which would have meant cutting out gluten anyway

I'd imagine that even if they gave her bad suggestions, it's so far out there thay it'll get her noggin joggin on other solutions

@Beemann right, I doubt crazy diets actually do anything either

is the engineering student / deist still here?

Well in their case specifically they were getting severe reactions to different foods

Chiropractic care is fine for body aches, I doubt ALL of it is placebo

Peterson and his daughter I mean

So they just eliminated items from their diet until it stopped

It's really just basic stuff though, it definitely is not the cure all people want

@Damnsloppy I don’t know.

He engineered a deity

Well that was exciting

and a bit nervewracking

I hope I wasn't cringy or anything lol

I'm sure ya did fine, kupo
