Glutard = a person who avoids gluten because they believe it is the key to their health, without any evidence to support that belief.  There are those who would argue that Naturopathic doctors go around creating glutards.  There is a lot to know about food sensitivities and gluten specifically, which I will not address here.  Suffice it to say that some people do not need to avoid gluten but instead they focus on it with a neurotic intensity that earns them this label.  Many people are crazy around the subject of food.  This word has entered my vocabulary thanks to Laura Sol, welder and metal fabricator.

We used to live in a world where people got sick from exposure to feces and lives were saved with antibiotics. Now we live in a world where people are dying from antibiotics and their lives are being saved by feces.

They don't mention the fact that adipose tissue actually MAKES estrogen. Grow a gut and the moobs are soon to come.

Here in the land of no bidets, this product has been found invaluable by a friend dealing with a perianal fistula. Also a terrific way for people with hemorrhoids to avoid torturing them with TP, and a kinder gentler way of cleaning vaginas. I haven't bought one yet, but I might. I'd rather have a full fledged bidet installed in my dream house, but who knows if I'll ever live there. I've wanted one ever since I lived in Europe as a teen.
