Mark Hyman on Gluten: warns against

Hyman’s Pegan framework is gluten-free, and his 10-Day Detox eliminates gluten entirely. In his 2009 Senate testimony, he described a patient whose “29 diseases” he attributed to an autoimmune response to gluten — a case he presented to illustrate his claim that a child’s junk-food diet could drive systemic illness.

His stated reasoning is that gluten can trigger inflammatory and autoimmune responses in susceptible people, and that eliminating it is a necessary reset step before reintroduction. (All claims are Hyman’s; the Senate testimony case is his presented account, not an independent medical finding.)
