Bigam was once a customer of Kinnikinnick Foods, buying food for his wife who has celiac disease. So, instead of scheduling me for a rather uncomfortable colonoscopy, he sent me to be tested for celiac disease, and then sent me off to enjoy my summer holidays, free from fear and full of confidence that all was well with my health and future. When someone who has celiac disease consumes any gluten, his or her immune system tries to 'protect' the body as it might if the person had consumed poison. |
